IN BRIEF: Pearson shareholders revolt on two resolutions in AGM

Fri, 30th Apr 2021 17:22

Pearson PLC - London-based education publisher - At annual general meeting, shareholders voted against resolution 12, which is to approve the annual remuneration report. That resolution passed despite the opposition, however 45% of shareholders voted against resolution 19, which would have approved the holding of general meetings on 14 clear days' notice.

This led to resolution 19 not being passed. Pearson says it will engage with shareholders concerning the two resolutions.

Current stock price: 830.00 pence

Year-to-date change: up 22%
