Brookdale Senior Living Inc. is facing shareholder activism as its 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders approaches, scheduled for July 11. The company's Board is urging shareholders to vote in favor of its eight director nominees using the BLUE proxy card, emphasizing the board's expertise in senior living, hospitality, sales, marketing, healthcare, operations, finance, and mergers and acquisitions. The Board argues that electing nominees from Ortelius Advisors, L.P., a shareholder owning 1% of Brookdale's shares, could disrupt the company's progress and diminish shareholder value. Brookdale contends that Ortelius lacks a deep understanding of the business and a viable plan for its future. Despite attempts to engage with Ortelius to avoid a proxy contest, the Board claims Ortelius refused to participate constructively, leading to the current situation. Shareholders are encouraged to disregard any proxy cards from Ortelius and to support Brookdale's nominees to maintain the company's forward momentum.
