BOYD GAMING CORPORATION

Boyd Gaming Corporation is a publicly traded company listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: BYD), so its shareholder base is disclosed primarily through beneficial-ownership filings made with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (Schedules 13D and 13G) rather than through a state-level shareholder register. The registry’s generic note that “if no shareholders are displayed, the company is likely a private entity exempt from public disclosure” does not apply to Boyd Gaming Corporation, which is an SEC-reporting public company subject to beneficial-ownership disclosure rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Based on the most recent Schedule 13D/13G amendments identified for the company, disclosed holders include one individual insider and institutional investment managers; none reports a majority or controlling stake. William S. Boyd, the company’s co-founder and Chairman Emeritus, reported beneficial ownership of 8,820,522 shares — approximately 9.2% of the 96,053,191 shares then outstanding — in a Schedule 13D/A with an event date of 14 March 2024. That filing separately excludes shares held by his daughter (through two limited liability companies over which she holds sole investment and voting power) and shares held separately by his spouse, over which Mr. Boyd disclaims beneficial ownership. The Vanguard Group, Inc., an investment adviser, reported beneficial ownership of 7,434,379 shares (approximately 7.60% of class) in a Schedule 13G/A with an event date of 29 December 2023, comprising shared voting power over 33,769 shares and sole dispositive power over 7,331,153 shares. Cohen & Steers, Inc., together with its investment-adviser subsidiaries, reported beneficial ownership of 4,121,798 shares (approximately 4.92% of class) as of 28 February 2025.

Ultimate beneficial ownership

No individual or entity identified in the reviewed SEC filings reports beneficial ownership at a level that would constitute majority control of Boyd Gaming Corporation. The largest disclosed individual holding — William S. Boyd’s approximately 9.2% stake as of March 2024 — falls below common ultimate-beneficial-ownership disclosure thresholds such as 25%, and no complete ownership chain was identified that would support calculating a higher effective percentage for any single beneficial owner. A verified ultimate beneficial owner is therefore not identified for this profile.

Data availability

Shareholder disclosure for Boyd Gaming Corporation is best described as major shareholders only: SEC rules require Schedule 13D/13G reporting once a holder’s stake crosses 5% of outstanding shares, so smaller shareholders are not individually identified in public filings. This profile reflects a sample of the most recent such filings identified as of the retrieval date below, rather than a complete or continuously updated shareholder register.

Zavia’s registry record for Boyd Gaming Corporation lists 66 officer entries in total, of which a review of the most recent entries — cross-checked against the company’s Schedule DEF 14A proxy statement for its 2026 Annual Meeting (held 7 May 2026) and its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended 31 December 2025 — confirms several current directors and executive officers of the publicly traded parent. This sample should be treated with caution: it mixes at least one clearly outdated record with currently accurate ones, and the underlying registry data may combine officer filings from Boyd Gaming’s numerous operating subsidiaries with those of the parent company.

Confirmed current officers of Boyd Gaming Corporation, per the 2026 proxy statement, include Keith E. Smith (President and Chief Executive Officer, and a director since 2005), Josh Hirsberg (Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer), Uri Clinton (Chief Legal & Development Officer and Corporate Secretary, having joined the company as General Counsel and Corporate Secretary in March 2021), Stephen Thompson (Chief Administrative Officer — a more senior title than the “Vice President” role shown in the registry, indicating his role has since been elevated), and Steve Schutte (Executive Vice President of Operations, matching the registry entry). William R. Boyd, listed in the registry as a Director, is confirmed as a current director, having served on the board since 1992. By contrast, Donald D. Snyder — shown in the registry as an active Director — retired as President and resigned from Boyd Gaming’s board in 2005; he has not served as a director for over two decades, and the “active” work status shown for him in the registry is not accurate.

Data availability

Nationality is not disclosed for any officer or director in the sources reviewed and is treated here as “Not disclosed” rather than inferred from name, address or any other information. Corporate filings for Boyd Gaming Corporation, a U.S. public company, do not routinely publish directors’ or officers’ nationality or country of residence; the addresses shown in the registry are correspondence addresses only and are not evidence of a person’s residence or nationality. Because the registry appears to combine officer records across the parent and subsidiary entities, and includes at least one long-resigned individual shown as active, this profile relies on the company’s own SEC filings for currency and accuracy rather than repeating the full registry list.

Data availability

Corporate-linkage information for Boyd Gaming Corporation is best described as partial: the registry identifies a large number of named subsidiaries and their jurisdictions, but does not disclose ownership or voting percentages for any of them, and this profile has independently confirmed only a sample of the recorded entity names against Boyd Gaming’s historical SEC subsidiary listings rather than the full set.
