English translation:Number and percentage of different classes of shareholders
Explanation:
I have had experience translating Chinese-language shareholders' meetings into English for the major translation agencies.

The term 分級 seems to indicate that there are different classes of shareholders. Normally this means that the different classes of shareholders have different voting rights at shareholder meetings, with shareholders of ordinary shares holding fewer or no voting rights per share, while shareholders of preferred shares have more voting rights.

Number and distribution (or percentage) of shareholders


Explanation:
The source is ambiguous because "比例" is very vague. It could mean rate, ratio, percent, etc.

The phrase literally means "Number and distribution (or percentage) of shareholders in each category of shareholders".
