2020 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING UPDATE
Intertek Group plc ("Intertek" or the "Company") today provides
an update on its forthcoming Annual General Meeting ("AGM") in
light of the Covid-19 virus and UK Government advice.
Annual General Meeting Update - Change of Venue and Proxy
Forms
Intertek is closely monitoring the Covid-19 situation and will
continue to do so in the lead up to the AGM.
Change of venue
The Board has been advised that, in response to the concerns
arising from Covid-19 and the UK Government's measures aimed at
managing the pandemic, the venue intended for the AGM will no
longer be available.
The Company's AGM will still proceed at 9.00 a.m. on Thursday 21
May 2020 and the Board has taken the decision to move the location
of the AGM from the Marlborough Theatre, No.11 Cavendish Square,
London, W1G 0AN, to the Company's offices at 33 Cavendish Square,
London W1G 0PS.
Proxy forms
The health of our shareholders, employees and stakeholders is of
paramount importance and accordingly, the Board has taken into
consideration the compulsory 'Stay at Home' measures that have been
published by the Government
www.gov.uk/government/publications/full-guidance-on-staying-at-home-and-away-from-others
. These measures provide that public gatherings of more than two
people are currently not permitted. As a result, shareholders are
asked not to attend the AGM in person this year.
Shareholders are therefore requested to appoint the Chairman as
their proxy (either electronically or by post) as early as
possible, if they have not already done so. Further information on
how shareholders can submit their proxies can be found in the
Notice of 2020 Annual General Meeting (the "Notice") and is
available on our website. Please note the deadline for submitting
proxies is 9.00 am on Tuesday 19 May 2020. Shareholders are able to
submit any questions on the formal business of the AGM to
investor@intertek.com . The Board recommends voting in favour of
all the resolutions contained in the Notice of AGM as, in the
Board's opinion, they are in the best interests of the Company and
its shareholders as a whole.
The Covid-19 situation continues to develop and shareholders
should note that further changes may need to be put in place at
short notice in relation to the AGM this year. Updates on the
status of the AGM and any changes to the proceedings of the meeting
will be published on the Company's website ( www.intertek.com ) and
announced to the stock market.
