RELEASE OF ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS AND NOTICE OF AGM  

Chesnara plc today announces that its 2022 Annual General Meeting ("AGM") will be held at the offices of Panmure Gordon & Co, One New Change, London, EC4M 9AF on Tuesday 17 May at 11:00am.  In connection with this, the 2021 Annual Report & Accounts, including the Notice of Annual General Meeting, are being posted and/or made available to shareholders today.

We are pleased to be able to invite members to attend the AGM in person this year after the Covid-19 impacts in 2020 and 2021. However, social distancing recommendations will be enforced to the extent required by government guidance prevailing at that time and the Company will update shareholders via a Regulatory Information Service should arrangements need to change at short notice. Given the possibility for change, including the ability for members or their proxies to attend in person, the Company continues to strongly encourage shareholders to vote electronically. Shareholders may also wish to submit questions in advance via e-mail to [email protected]. We will endeavour to respond to questions raised directly, or by publishing responses on our website.

The Company's preliminary results for the year ended 31 December 2021 were announced on 31 March 2022.  This announcement contained a management report, a condensed set of financial statements prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards and responsibility statements in compliance with DTR6.3.5R.
