What does the vote mean for governance?
The latest proxy statement sets a clear governance calendar. StockTitan reported that shareholders will vote on nine director nominees, the auditor appointment and executive compensation. The filing listed 21,905,185 common shares outstanding on September 21, 2026, giving the annual meeting a defined voting base.
The operating figures show why loan growth remains central to the investment case. Consumer Portfolio Services originated USD 757.00 million of new loans in the second quarter of 2026, versus USD 433.00 million in the second quarter of 2025, while net income increased to USD 6.20 million from USD 4.80 million, according to Yahoo Finance. That combination points to expanding volume, while the company remains exposed to credit performance because it serves borrowers with limited or impaired credit histories.
Next date is October 27
The next substantiated company date is October 27, 2026, when the annual shareholder meeting is scheduled. The proxy statement dated September 30, 2026 also identifies the auditor vote and the advisory compensation resolution, according to StockTitan.
