Filtronic plc ("Filtronic" or the "Company")
Results of General Meeting, Total Voting Rights and Directors' Dealings
Earlier today Filtronic announced the results of the Open Offer of up to 19,999,373 Open Offer Shares at 5.0 pence per share (the "Open Offer"), which was conditional on, inter alia, shareholder approval.
The Board of the Company is pleased to announce that at the General Meeting held at 12 noon today, the Resolutions were duly passed, by the requisite majorities, on a show of hands.
Accordingly, an application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for 10,033,160 new Ordinary Shares to be to be admitted to trading on AIM, which is expected to occur at 8.00 a.m. on 21 December 2015 ("Admission"). The new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares of the Company.
Total Voting Rights
Following Admission, the Enlarged Ordinary Share Capital of the Company will consist of 206,910,146 Ordinary Shares. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 206,910,146 and this figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company.
