CARLSBAD, Calif., May 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Callaway Golf Company (the "Company") (NYSE:ELY) announced today that its upcoming 2020 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting") will now be held in a virtual-only meeting format. The Annual Meeting will be held at the originally scheduled date and time on May 12, 2020 at 8:00 a.m. (Pacific Time).
Due to the public health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, orders of relevant state and local governments, and to support the health and well-being of our shareholders, employees and their families, the Company will hold its Annual Meeting in a virtual-only meeting format. The timing and process for voting by proxy remains unchanged.
To access the virtual Annual Meeting, shareholders of record as of March 16, 2020, which is the record date for the Annual Meeting, may visit www.meetingcenter.io/223733074.
