(1) Whilst the Company seeks authority on an annual basis to perform share buybacks (as is customary for UK PLCs), the Board notes that it has no current intention of utilising this authority, reflecting the complexities of executing an on-market buyback for a company incorporated under Luxembourg law such as B&M European Value Retail S.A.. The Board continuously reviews the Group's capital structure and has regularly returned funds to all its shareholders by way of both ordinary and special dividends.
The results of the votes will also be posted on the Company's website at https://www.bandmretail.com/investors/company-meetings/agm.
Please note that a vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of votes for and against a resolution.
On the record date on 9 July 2024, the total number of voting rights (TVR) was 1,002,779,437 and the total number of shares in issue was 1,002,790,896 (ISC).
