Impactive Capital Master Fund LP and affiliates, holding 4.9% of WEX Inc., are soliciting proxies to elect three director nominees (Kurt P. Adams, Ellen R. Alemany, and Lauren Taylor Wolfe) to a nine-member board at the May 5, 2026 annual meeting. The dissident cites the board's failure to provide adequate oversight and accountability for capital allocation, pricing, and operational missteps that have harmed shareholder value. Impactive is also supporting six unopposed company nominees while opposing three incumbent directors.
