Results of 2022 Annual General Meeting

LONDON, 25 April 2022  Hikma Pharmaceuticals PLC (LSE: HIK) (NASDAQ Dubai: HIK) (OTC: HKMPY) (LEI:549300BNS685UXH4JI75) announces its Annual General Meeting ("AGM"), held at 1 New Burlington Place, W1S 2HR, London on 25 April 2022 commenced at 1:00 pm. Resolution 15 was withdrawn from the business of the meeting and all the proposed resolutions were duly passed by shareholders by way of a poll. Resolutions 1 to 14 were passed as ordinary resolutions and Resolutions and 16 to 20 were passed as special resolutions.

The shareholder support for the re-election of the Chair of the Nomination and Governance Committee (resolution 8) has reduced from circa 97% in 2021 to 69% today. Following feedback from shareholders prior to the meeting, the Board understands that this was due to the level of female representation on the board falling to 22% as at the end of the AGM following the retirement of Dr. Pamela Kirby.  The Board had envisaged that Dr. Kirby would step down in 2023 but understands that she wished to move on earlier than anticipated.  The Board is in the process of reviewing candidates to raise the level of female representation to meet or exceed its target of 33%.  The Board has noted the recent announcement from the FCA regarding gender diversity and is taking steps to ensure that these requirements are met within the established timeframe.  The Board will provide an update on progress within six months of the AGM and in the next annual report.

Copies of the resolutions dealing with special business passed at the AGM have been submitted to the FCA's Electronic Submission System and will be available from the National Storage Mechanism.

The total number of votes cast on the poll for each resolution (the full text of the resolutions is detailed in the notice of the AGM dated 23 February 2022) is set out below. The number of Ordinary Shares in issue on 25 April 2022 was 239,588,352.  There were 12,833,233 Ordinary Shares held in treasury, which are not counted in the voting capital of the Company which, therefore, was 226,755,119.
