RESPONSE TO VOTING RESULTS AT 2023 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

 

In accordance with provision 4 of the UK Corporate Governance Code, we are providing an update on our statement of 15 November 2023 regarding the results of the poll vote at the 2023 Annual General Meeting ("AGM") on resolutions 18 and 19. Both resolutions were passed by shareholders at the AGM, as has been the case in previous years.  However, each received a vote of just over 20% against the Board's recommendations.

As noted in our statement of 15 November 2023, the Board engages with shareholders in respect of AGM resolutions to ensure shareholder views are understood.  Accordingly, we have since written to our top 10 shareholders to explain the Board's rationale in proposing these resolutions at the AGM and inviting them to share any issues or concerns with the Board's approach to them and the allotment of shares and disapplication of pre-emption rights more generally.

The Board is pleased that the majority of shareholders voting at the AGM supported the Board's approach and we continue to have a constructive dialogue with our shareholders.

 

For and on behalf of
Hays plc

Group General Counsel and Company Secretary
