2025 Berkshire Hathaway
Shareholders Meeting

We are attending the Berkshire Hathaway Shareholders Meeting, Saturday May 3th, 2025. We have prepared a guide for those who are joining the annual event with The Investor’s Podcast Network.

WHO ARE WE?

The Investor’s Podcast Network is home to We Study Billionaires, which is the #1 most downloaded stock investing podcast in the world with 170,000,000+ downloads.
Like you, we are big fans of Warren Buffett, and Charlie Munger. This is the biggest value-investing event of the year, and we will be hosting a number of events throughout the weekend for our listeners. We hope you will join us!

WHO CAN GO AND HOW?

Anyone can attend the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting who holds at least one share of stock. You may be wondering if you need to own an expensive $700,000 share of BRK.A stock. You don’t! In fact, you only need to own 1 share of BRK.B stock (around $450) to get the credentials to attend the meeting.

Your credential is a badge on a lanyard that you’ll wear around your neck in order to get into the CHI Health Center Omaha (formerly CenturyLink Center), where the meeting is held. Without this badge, you won’t be able to attend the meeting. If you plan on going, you’ll definitely want to ensure you’re in fact a shareholder. Here’s the process to get credentials for the Berkshire Hathaway Annual Shareholders Meeting:

1. If you receive a hard copy of the annual report, you can tear out the perforated proxy card on the back, check to attend the meeting, and mail it in requesting 4 passes. This is the best way to get your credentials. If you get an electronic version of your annual report, you will need to contact your broker’s Corporate Actions Team.

2. The Action Team will give you a 12-digit control number and tell you to go to proxyvote.com and enter the control number. After entering the number at proxyvote.com, you will check the box at the bottom of the form requesting the desire to attend the annual meeting. You will receive a confirmation email for the meeting.

3. Depending on how early you register, it could take a few weeks or months to receive your credentials because Berkshire’s third-party mailing service is continually sending them out over the course of several weeks. When the credentials come, there are typically 4 badges that are sent. If you are a shareholder and aren’t able to receive your credentials, you can visit the lobby of the CHI Health Center Omaha, which is open from 11:00 am to 6:00 pm on Friday and 7:00 am to 4:00 pm on Saturday. You will need to bring a photo ID and proof of ownership.

4. Please note that The Investor’s Podcast Network does NOT give away credentials. Please visit Berkshire Hathaway’s website for more information related to requesting credentials for the meeting.
