Centrica PLC held its 2024 Annual General Meeting at Hilton Glasgow, where all proposed resolutions were decided on a poll and passed. The results showed overwhelming support for the resolutions, with over 99% of votes cast in favor of receiving the Company's Annual Report and Accounts, approving the Directors' Annual Remuneration Report, and electing new Directors. The final cash dividend of 2.67 pence per ordinary share was also approved with 99.79% of votes in favor.
The meeting saw the election and re-election of Directors, all of whom received significant support from shareholders. Additionally, the re-appointment of Deloitte LLP as the Company's Auditors and various authorities related to shares and general meetings were approved with strong shareholder support.
The total number of ordinary shares in issue was 5,303,114,900, and shareholders were entitled to one vote per share. The Company noted that a 'Vote withheld' is not a vote in law and is not counted towards the proportion of votes 'For' or 'Against' a resolution. Special resolutions were also passed during the meeting.
Copies of the announcements and resolutions passed as special business will be available on the company's website and submitted to the FCA for inspection. Centrica PLC is listed on the London Stock Exchange and has its registered office in Windsor, Berkshire.
