Comment on Voting
The Board is pleased that all resolutions were successfully
approved by shareholders, with the majority of those shareholders
voting in favour of all resolutions.
The Board, however, recognises the material number of votes
against resolution 3, the re-election of the Company's chairman
Robert Orr. The Company is seeking to engage with those of its key
shareholders who voted against resolution 3. To the extent concerns
are raised in relation to the diversity of the Board (in
particular, the requirement for the Company to meet the target for
gender diversity set out in the Hampton-Alexander review, following
its inclusion in the FTSE 250 index in October 2021), the Board is
committed to meeting this target, as outlined in the latest Annual
Report.
In recognition of the increased size of the Company, as well as
actively seeking to improve the diversity of the Board, we were
pleased to announce, earlier today, the appointment of Sarah
Whitney as a new Non-executive Director of the Company. Following
Sarah's appointment, we can confirm that we will be fully compliant
with the Hampton-Alexander board gender diversity target, with 40%
female representation. Full details in respect of Sarah's
appointment are provided in the relevant announcement.
The Board engaged with a number of investors on the topic of
diversity ahead of the AGM and we will continue to do so, in
particular and as noted above, with those shareholders who voted
against resolution 3. The feedback and any actions required will be
published at a later date. The Board welcomes feedback and
engagement from shareholders on a regular basis to discuss any
concerns they may have.
