Senpoint
Sound judgment. Clear direction.
Sen recalls the Catalan concept of seny: good sense, balanced judgment and thoughtful action with perception and understanding.
These ideas reflect our approach: understand the shareholder landscape, apply experienced judgment and bring a clear direction to strategy and execution.
Services
Direct Partner Experience

Shareholder Intelligence
We combine shareholder identification, stock surveillance and vote projections to guide targeted outreach and campaign decisions.
Why Senpoint
From intelligence to execution
We identify shareholders, assess likely support, plan outreach and monitor votes as an engagement progresses.
Our partners work alongside our clients and their advisors, leading the solicitation team executing the campaign.
What do you do?
Good question, we get that from our families too. We help companies understand their shareholders, plan targeted engagement and build support for important votes and major transactions. From strategy through execution, our work spans proxy solicitation, activism defense, activism, M&A, corporate governance and stock surveillance.
When should we bring you in?
Early involvement gives us more time to understand ownership, assess likely support and prepare outreach. For M&A, we can support planning before an announcement and monitor shareholder movement as the transaction progresses.
Who will work on our account?
Two or more experienced partners lead your engagement, supported by a dedicated solicitation team. You will know who is responsible for your account before work begins.
Do you work alongside our existing counsel and advisors?
Yes. We coordinate shareholder strategy and solicitation with your existing counsel and advisors, keeping our work aligned with the broader engagement.
Do you work alongside Broadridge or our transfer agent?
Yes. We work alongside Broadridge or your transfer agent, coordinating shareholder outreach and vote monitoring with the wider meeting process.
Our meeting is approaching and we are short of quorum. Can you help?
Call us today. Depending on the timetable and meeting requirements, we can assess targeted shareholder follow-up, broker outreach and other options for improving participation.
Will you tell us if your vote is at risk?
Yes. We will give you a candid assessment of likely shareholder support, the risks to your vote and the available options. You are hiring Senpoint for judgment, not cheerleading.
