MOLINS PLC
Proposed name change and notice of General Meeting
Molins plc announces that a circular convening a General Meeting
of Molins plc (the "Company") will be sent to shareholders today
and made available to view on the Company's website at
www.molins.com. The meeting will be held on 22 January 2018 at
11.00 a.m. at the offices of Panmure Gordon, One New Change,
London, EC4M 9AF (the "General Meeting"). The purpose of this
meeting is to consider and, if deemed appropriate, to approve a
resolution to change the name of the Company to "Mpac Group
plc".
As previously announced on 8 June 2016 (the "Announcement"), as
part of the sale by the Company of the Instrumentation &
Tobacco Machinery business (as defined in the Announcement) to G.D
S.p.A, the Company agreed to transfer the name "Molins" to MPRD
Limited which means that the Company is required to change its name
and remove all associated "Molins" branding.
As a result, the Company initiated a process to identify a new
corporate name aligned to its new strategic direction. Mpac Group
plc was chosen as it is a name grounded in our business's rich
heritage and which looks forward to our future as a world leading
end-to-end packaging machinery provider.
Directors' recommendation
Your directors consider that the resolution to be proposed will
promote the success of the Company for the benefit of its
shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, your directors unanimously
recommend that shareholders vote in favour of the resolution, as
they intend to do in respect of their own beneficial holdings.
