FLOWTECH FLUIDPOWER PLC
RESULT OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
Flowtech Fluidpower plc ('the Company') held its Annual General
Meeting (AGM) at 10.00 am today at the Company's Registered Office,
and as a view-only virtual event via the Investor Meet Company
platform (IMC).
All Resolutions, with the exception of Resolution 12 (a special
resolution for the disapplication of pre-emption rights), as set
out in the Notice of Meeting dated 19 May 2023, were duly passed.
The Company also recognises that a large proportion of the votes
were cast against Resolution 11 (an ordinary resolution to give
authority to allot shares). Although Resolutions 11 and 12 were in
line with the Investment Association's share capital management
guidelines, the Board takes seriously its responsibilities to
maintain a healthy dialogue with shareholders and will engage with
them to better understand their views.
The AGM was compliant with legal requirements for the AGM in
accordance with the Company's Articles of Association. It had the
necessary quorum present and was purely functional and comprised
only of the formal votes for each Resolution.
Shareholders were able to submit any questions regarding the
business prior to the AGM via the Company website as detailed in
the Notice of Meeting dated 19 May 2023. No questions relating to
the Resolutions were submitted ahead of the AGM by shareholders via
the Company investor website.
