Postponement of Annual General Meeting
RIT Capital Partners plc ("Company") wishes to update shareholders on the impact of the continuing COVID-19 situation on its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") scheduled for 27 April 2020.
The Board of Directors of the Company, in considering the exceptional circumstances, has agreed to postpone the AGM and it is now expected to take place before 30 June 2020. AGM Notices will be sent to shareholders in due course. Whilst the Company hopes that this postponement will allow for the holding of a customary AGM, nevertheless, changes to the usual arrangements may be made. This decision will of course be taken based on public health advice nearer the time.
In the meantime, the Company activated its full remote working protocols as of Wednesday 18 March 2020. These remote working procedures are operating satisfactorily and the Company currently expects to publish the March NAV in mid-April as normal.
