The 2022 AGM will be held at 133 Houndsditch, London, EC3A 7BX on Thursday 28 July 2022 at 10.00 a.m.
The Board is looking forward to welcoming shareholders in person to the AGM this year. However, in the event that government restrictions on public gatherings or other social distancing measures are reintroduced, the Company may be required to change the arrangements for the Meeting at short notice. Any changes to the arrangements set out in the Notice of 2022 AGM will be communicated to shareholders via the Company's website www.cmcmarketsplc.com/investors/shareholder-information/#AGM and announced via a regulatory news service. Further information can be found in the Notice of 2022 AGM.
In the Directors' Report for the year to 31 March 2022, the Board highlighted certain procedural issues in respect of payments of certain past interim dividends in 2016, 2017 and 2020 which had been made otherwise than in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. It was intended that a special resolution be proposed at the AGM which would, if passed, authorise the appropriation of distributable profits to the payment of the relevant dividends and the entry by the Company into certain deeds of release. The Company now intends to convene a separate general meeting to consider this matter which will be held immediately after the AGM. A separate notice of general meeting will be published in due course in respect of such meeting.
