Summary
This filing is an amendment to a previous 8-K report by Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (ICE) filed on May 22, 2017. The amendment's sole purpose is to officially disclose the outcome of a stockholder vote on the frequency of advisory votes concerning executive compensation. Investors should note that the company is clarifying a procedural matter related to corporate governance and stockholder engagement. The key takeaway for investors is that ICE's stockholders have voted, on an advisory basis, to hold say-on-pay votes annually.
