Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation (the “Articles of Incorporation”) of Fidelity National Financial, Inc. (“FNF” or the “Company”) were approved by the Company’s stockholders at the 2026 Annual Meeting and were filed with the Nevada Secretary of State and became effective on June 10, 2026. The purpose of the changes to the Articles of Incorporation was to eliminate the classified structure of our board over a three-year period. The board declassification will be phased in over a three-year period beginning at the 2027 Annual Meeting, at and after which directors will be elected to one-year terms as the incumbents’ three-year terms expire. Beginning with the 2029 Annual Meeting, all directors will stand for annual elections. The Articles of Incorporation do not change the unexpired three-year terms of directors elected prior to the effectiveness of the amendment, including those directors elected at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 10, 2026.
The Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, which were previously approved by the board of directors contingent upon approval of the Articles of Incorporation by the Company’s stockholders at the 2026 Annual Meeting, contain changes to conform to the Articles of Incorporation and became effective on June 10, 2026. The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws are attached hereto as Exhibits 3.1 and 3.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
