Commenting on the result of the General Meeting, Donald Brydon, Chairman of LSEG, said:

 

"The Board would like to thank shareholders for their support today. The Board and I welcome the stability that this gives the Group. The recruitment process for a new CEO is underway and we will update our shareholders in due course."

 

David Warren, Interim CEO and CFO of LSEG, also said:

 

"The Group remains well positioned. The senior management team and I continue to focus on executing on our clearly articulated long-term growth strategy and targets in addition to our ambition to drive global growth and further develop our customer partnership approach. I look forward to updating shareholders again with LSEG's Preliminary Results in March 2018."

 

Notes

 

1. Please note a 'vote withheld' is not a vote under English Law and is not counted in the calculation of votes 'for' and 'against' the resolution.

 

2. Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share.

 

3. As at 6.30pm on 15 December 2017, the issued share capital of the Company consisted of 350,531,339 ordinary shares. At that time, the register of members of the Company recorded that 3,794,585 of those ordinary shares were held as treasury shares. Therefore, the total voting rights as at that time were 346,736,754.

 

4. The percentages above are rounded to two decimal places.

 

 

Results of the poll will also be available shortly on the Company's website: https://www.lseg.com/investor-relations/general-meeting-december-2017
