LyondellBasell, a global leader in the chemical industry, has announced the internet availability of proxy materials for its 2026 annual general meeting of shareholders, which will be held on Friday, May 22, 2026. The company has filed its annual report on Form 10-K for 2025 and the proxy statement for the upcoming meeting with the SEC, which are available on the LyondellBasell investor website.

Why it matters

As a publicly traded company, LyondellBasell is required to provide shareholders with access to key financial and governance documents ahead of the annual meeting, where important votes will take place. The availability of these materials online helps the company reduce its environmental impact and costs associated with physical mailings.

The details

LyondellBasell has elected to take advantage of SEC rules that allow companies to deliver proxy materials digitally, providing a Notice of Internet Availability to shareholders instead of mailing physical copies. Shareholders can request hard copies of the materials at no charge. The record date for voting at the annual meeting is April 24, 2026, and LyondellBasell expects to complete the mailing of the Notice within five business days of that date.
