Hatte die IR angeschrieben und nach gefragt ob es mittlerweile Lösungen zu den einzelnen Abstimmungsergebnissen und deren Umsetzung gibt. Unteranderem interessierte mich ob der Aktienrückkauf umgesetzt wird obwohl die Annahme des Jahresabschlusses abgelehnt wurde.
Hier die Antwort (Die Beantwortung lies 24 Std auf sich warten), Bewerten könnt ihr die selbst.
As disclosed in the announcement of the voting results after the AGM on 28 August 2020, six out of the nine resolutions were passed:
“Shareholders are hereby advised that at the virtual annual general meeting of Steinhoff International Holdings N.V. (“Steinhoff” or the “Company”) held at 13:00pm CET on 28 August 2020, via webcast accessible on the Company’s website (www.steinhoffinternational.com) (the “AGM”), the following resolutions proposed in the notice of meeting made available to shareholders on the Company’s website on 17 July 2020 were passed by the requisite majority of votes cast by the Steinhoff shareholders present or represented at the AGM:
(i) the resolution to adopt the remuneration policy applicable to Supervisory Directors (agenda item 5.2);
(ii) the resolution to amend the remuneration of the Supervisory Directors (agenda item 5.3);
(iii)the resolution to partially amend the Company’s articles of association (agenda item 6);
(iv) the resolution to reduce the issued capital of the Company by cancelling Shares held by the Company
(agenda item 7);
(v) the resolution to authorise the Management Board to acquire Shares (agenda item 8); and
(vi) the resolution to appoint Mazars Accountants N.V. as statutory audit firm for the financial years ending on 30 September 2020 and 30 September 2021, respectively (agenda item 9).”
The three proposals that were not passed are:
Proposal to cast an advisory vote in respect of the remuneration report for financial year ended 30 September 2019 (agenda item 4.2)
This was an advisory vote. Steinhoff is considering the feedback and will, as required by Dutch law, explain in the 2020 Annual Report how the voting outcome will have been taken into account.
Proposal to adopt the annual accounts for the financial year ended 30 September 2019 (agenda item 4.5)
The fact that the 2019 annual accounts have not been adopted may have an impact on certain planned initiatives (e.g. the repurchase of Steinhoff shares held by subsidiary companies – that was agenda item 8).
Proposal to amend the remuneration policy applicable to Managing Directors (agenda item 5.1)
Similarly to agenda item 4.2 above, Steinhoff is considering the feedback received in this regard. Until an amended policy has been adopted, the current policy remains valid.
