Annual Report and Notice of Annual General Meeting ("AGM")
Following the release of Premier Food's preliminary results on
24 June 2020 for the 52 week period ended 28 March 2020, the
Company has today posted its 2019/20 annual report to
shareholders.
The Company's 2020 AGM will be held at 11.00 am on Wednesday 12
August 2020.
As a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are making changes
to the way in which we conduct this year's AGM. In light of the UK
Government's current guidance on public gatherings, and the new
regulations set out in Schedule 14 of the Corporate Insolvency and
Governance Act, the Board has concluded that shareholders cannot be
permitted to attend the AGM in person this year.
The AGM will be held by electronic means and will be kept as
concise and efficient as possible with the minimum necessary quorum
of two shareholders in order to conduct the business of the
meeting. The format of the meeting will be purely functional to
comply with relevant legal requirements.
Instead of attending this year's AGM, shareholders are asked to
exercise their votes by submitting their proxy electronically or by
post as soon as possible, and these must be received by no later
than 11.00 am on Monday 10 August 2020. Shareholders who wish to
appoint a proxy are recommended to appoint the chair of the meeting
as their proxy. As a result of the current Government restrictions,
if a shareholder appoints someone else as their proxy, that proxy
will not be able to attend the meeting in order to cast the
shareholder's vote.
Your votes do matter. Proxy instructions (which include the
ability to lodge proxies electronically) are set out in the Notice
of AGM. Shareholders are also invited to submit questions in
advance of the meeting via email at
investor.relations@premierfoods.co.uk by no later than 11.00 am on
Monday 10 August 2020. We will endeavour to answer questions
received in advance, by publishing responses on thematic topics on
our website either prior to, or shortly after, the Annual General
Meeting.
Copies of the annual report and Notice of AGM are available to
view or download from the Company's website, www.premierfoods.co.uk
, and have been submitted to the Financial Conduct Authority's
National Storage Mechanism (NSM), and will shortly be available for
inspection at
