Camden Property Trust shareholders approved all proposals at the company’s 2026 annual meeting, including re-electing trust managers, approving executive compensation on an advisory basis, ratifying Deloitte & Touche as auditor, and backing two equity plan updates.
Management said the apartment market is improving as record supply is being rapidly absorbed and new construction starts have fallen sharply in Camden’s markets, supporting a stronger operating backdrop.
Executive Chairman Alexander Jessett said Camden’s markets have strong job and population growth, and that consumers remain healthy, positioning the REIT for what he called a strong recovery.
Camden Property Trust (NYSE:CPT) shareholders approved all proposals presented at the company’s 2026 virtual annual meeting, including the re-election of trust managers, an advisory vote on executive compensation and the ratification of Deloitte & Touche LLP as the company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
Executive Chairman Richard J. Campo chaired the meeting and said Camden was conducting the annual shareholder meeting virtually as permitted by Texas law and the company’s bylaws. Campo also noted that closing remarks could include forward-looking statements and directed shareholders to the company’s SEC filings for further information about risks and uncertainties.

Josh Lebar, Camden’s senior vice president, general counsel and secretary, said an alphabetical list of shareholders of record as of March 16, 2026, was available for inspection during the meeting. He reported that 102,653,274 common shares were outstanding and entitled to vote as of the record date, and that more than 50% of those shares were represented, establishing a quorum.
Shareholders voted to re-elect the company’s trust manager nominees: Richard J. Campo, D. Keith Oden, Kelvin R. Westbrook, Javier E. Benito, Heather J. Brunner, Mark D. Gibson, Scott S. Ingraham, Renu Khator, Frances Aldrich Sevilla-Sacasa, Steven A. Webster and Alexander J. Jessett.

Management Points to Market Recovery
In closing remarks, Alexander Jessett said Camden is positioned in “the right high-growth, high-demand markets” with the right products and teams. He said the record level of apartment supply experienced over the past few years is being “rapidly absorbed,” while new starts are down dramatically in Camden’s markets.
Jessett also said Camden’s consumer is “stronger than ever,” paying a low 19% of income to rent, with higher earnings and more savings than before COVID. He added that Camden’s markets are creating jobs and growing population, which he said is setting up the company for what “should be a strong recovery.”
Campo then asked Connie Chou, Camden’s director of investor relations, whether any shareholder questions had been submitted. Chou said there were no questions to be answered at that time. The meeting was subsequently adjourned.
