Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (TDY) filed this Form 8-K on April 23, 2026 to report several governance and compensation actions following its 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held April 22, 2026.

The Personnel and Compensation Committee, on April 21, 2026, approved effective April 1, 2026 base salary increases for three named executive officers: Stephen F. Blackwood (Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer) from $640,000 to $660,000,a Jason VanWees (Vice Chairman) from $595,000 to $613,000, and Melanie S. Cibik (Executive Vice President, General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer and Secretary) from $585,000 to $603,000.

Starting in 2026, Mr. Blackwood and Ms. Cibik become eligible for stock option grants with grant-date fair value equal to 95%b and 90% of base salary, respectively.

Stockholders also approved a Restated Certificate of Incorporation allowing holders of at least 25% of combined voting power to call special meetings, and the Board adopted related Sixth Amended and Restated Bylaws setting procedural requirements for such requests.

Non-employee director annual aggregate compensation limit under the plan rises from $750,000 to $1,000,000c. At the meeting, Michelle A.

Kumbier and Robert A. Malone were elected as Class III directors, Deloitte & Touche LLP was ratified as independent registered public accounting firm for 2026, and the non-binding say-on-pay advisory resolution passed, with 38,895,426 votes for and 1,717,586 against.
