On December 20, 2017, AutoZone, Inc. (the “Company”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Initial 8-K”) to report the final voting results of the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on December 20, 2017. This Form 8-K/A amends the Initial 8-K to disclose the Company’s decision regarding the frequency of future stockholder advisory votes on compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.
