EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Columbia Sportswear Company (the "Company") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 13, 2023 (the “Original Form 8-K”) relating to the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company held on June 8, 2023 (the “Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the Company’s decision regarding how frequently it will conduct future advisory votes on executive compensation. Except as set forth herein, no other changes have been made to the Original Form 8-K.
ITEM 5.07 SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
As previously reported in the Original Form 8-K, a non-binding advisory vote was conducted on the frequency of executive compensation votes. The Company's Board of Directors (the “Board”) recommended advisory executive compensation votes on an annual basis, and a majority of the shares were voted for annual advisory votes. The Board has considered the outcome of this advisory vote and has determined that the Company will hold an annual advisory vote on executive compensation until the next advisory vote regarding the frequency of executive compensation votes.
