Results of Reconvened AGM
Kibo Energy PLC (AIM: KIBO; AltX: KBO), the renewable energy focused development company, announces the results of voting at its reconvened Annual General Meeting ("AGM") held today. Proxies were received by shareholders holding 9.51% of the shares in Kibo (3,039,197,458 shares issued and outstanding).
Due to ongoing technical difficulties relating to the casting of votes, most of Kibo's largest shareholders were unable to cast their votes, despite the anticipation that these difficulties would be resolved in advance of the adjourned meeting. The Company did not wish to further adjourn the AGM, and therefore the board decided to proceed with the ordinary business of the AGM and withdraw from consideration the proposed resolutions 4 to 8.
The Company intends to hold an EGM to deal with these other resolutions as soon as is reasonably possible and is working to assist the relevant shareholders in resolving these technical issues.
The Company remains committed to ensuring full shareholder representation at its general meetings.
The proxy voting details for resolutions 1- 3 at the AGM are shown on the table below: -
