Notes:

 

1. Any proxy appointments giving discretion to the Chairman of the Meeting have been included in the "For" totals above.

2. A vote "Withheld" is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the votes "For" or "Against" a resolution.

3. Indicates Special Resolutions requiring a 75% majority to be passed.

4. The Company's total ordinary shares in issue as at 12 December 2019, was 200,000,000 ordinary shares of 1 pence each, of which 2,113,021 ordinary shares are held as Treasury Shares. Therefore the total voting rights are 197,886,979 ordinary shares (ordinary shareholders are entitled to one vote per ordinary share held).

5. The proxy votes received, including votes withheld, amount to 92.6% of the total voting rights.

 

The Board notes that all but one of the resolutions were passed with a majority of over 90%, although there was a significant minority vote against the approval of the Directors' Remuneration Report (23.7%).

 

Prior to the AGM, ISS recommended that shareholders vote against the approval of the Directors' Remuneration Report due to the notice period given to the former CFO, Ian Dew, not being in-line with their policy guidelines. The notice period was in-line with his contract and Volution did explain the rationale behind the decision to ISS, a decision which the Board believed was taken in the best interests of shareholders and stakeholders as a whole. However, the explanation did not result in a change to the recommendation made by ISS.

 

The majority of our shareholders, including the Company's major shareholders, were supportive in their vote and the Board and the Remuneration Committee will continue to engage with shareholders going forward to fully understand their perspectives to help shape the new Remuneration Policy which will be submitted for approval to shareholders at the AGM 2020.

 

The Company intends to post a copy of this Update Statement on the public register maintained by the Investment Association. In line with the provisions of the 2018 UK Corporate Governance Code, we will also provide an update no later than in six months' time.

 

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of the resolutions passed (other than those concerning ordinary business) will shortly be submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will be available for inspection at www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM
