Hasbro Wins a Board Battle Over Dungeons & Dragons
Hasbro has fended off a board challenge from an activist investor that wanted to shake up its board and spin off the toymaker’s lucrative division that includes Dungeons & Dragons.
On Wednesday, the Rhode Island-based company said its shareholders voted to reelect its 13 directors by a “substantial margin,” according to preliminary vote tallies.
“As the vote indicates, our highly skilled and recently refreshed board possesses experience and expertise directly relevant to overseeing Hasbro’s world-class portfolio of assets across multiple play and entertainment categories,” the company said in a statement Wednesday.
