According to the latest documents disclosed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Starbucks shareholders have voted against a shareholder proposal that required the company to submit a special report on the potential risks of excluding religious charitable organizations from its employee grant matching program.

The proposal focused on Starbucks' current employee charitable donation matching program, noting that excluding religious charitable organizations from the matching scope could pose various potential risks, including legal, reputational, and employee relations concerns. However, the final voting results showed that the majority of shareholders did not support this motion. The rejection of this shareholder resolution means that Starbucks is not required to issue a related risk assessment report as requested in the proposal. The company's existing employee donation matching policy will continue under its current framework.
