AWI said the AGM is an opportunity for shareholders to receive an update on AWI’s performance during the year, to ask questions of the board and management, as well as AWI’s auditor, and to vote on any items of business before the AGM.
The AGM is usually held as a physical meeting and livestreamed, but this year will only be held online as a virtual meeting. Formal notice and meeting papers were sent to shareholders in October 2024.
Ordinary business to be transacted at the meeting will include consideration of the financial, directors’ and auditor’s reports for the financial year ended 30 June 2024.
There are no voting items on the agenda; however, individual shareholders may attend via virtual link or by proxy. A corporate shareholder may attend by proxy or through a body corporate representative. All duly appointed proxies and body corporate representatives will have the right to speak at the meeting on behalf of the shareholder they represent. For the purposes of the meeting, shares in the company are deemed to be held by those shareholders who held shares at 5pm Australian Eastern Daylight Saving Time on Friday 6th September as recorded in the company’s share register.
