Costain Group PLC
(the "Company")
Notice of 2021 Annual General Meeting and
Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 December
2020
Notice of the 2021 Annual General Meeting (the "2021 AGM
Notice") and a form of proxy, together with the Annual Report and
Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020 (the "2020 Annual
Report"), will be posted today to those shareholders who have
elected to receive paper copies.
The 2021 AGM Notice and 2020 Annual Report are also available on
the Company's website at www.costain.com and have been submitted to
the National Storage Mechanism, where they will shortly be
available for inspection at
https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism .
At present, public health guidance and legislation issued by the
UK Government in response to the COVID-19 pandemic mean that there
remain restrictions on public gatherings and travel. We will
therefore hold the 2021 Annual General Meeting ("AGM") at our
offices at Costain House, Vanwall Business Park, Maidenhead,
Berkshire SL6 4UB at 3.00pm on Thursday 6 May 2021 with the minimum
attendance required to form a quorum and to conduct the business of
the meeting. Shareholders will not be able to attend the AGM in
person but can be represented by the chair of the meeting acting as
their proxy. This is to comply with UK Government guidance and to
protect the health and safety of our shareholders, colleagues and
other stakeholders.
Shareholders will be able to watch the AGM via a live webcast.
For details of how to register for the webcast, please visit our
website at www.costain.com/agm from 30 April 2021. If you are
unable to observe the webcast live, it will be available to view
on-demand after the AGM.
The Board of Directors of the Company is also keen to ensure
that shareholders are able to exercise their right to participate
in the meeting by voting. Details on how to submit a proxy vote by
post, online or through CREST are set out in the 2021 AGM Notice.
As mentioned above, given the current restrictions on attendance,
shareholders are encouraged to appoint the chair of the meeting as
their proxy rather than a named person who will not be able to
attend the meeting.
The Board recognises the importance for our shareholders to make
an informed vote and ask questions. Registered shareholders may
therefore submit questions to the Directors in advance of the
meeting by sending an email to AGM@costain.com . The Company will
answer these in due course including, where possible and
appropriate, by publishing the response on the website at
www.costain.com/agm before the proxy voting deadline.
Any changes to the AGM will be communicated to shareholders
before the meeting through our website at
www.costain.com/agm and, where appropriate, by RIS announcement.
