Christopher Richards, Non-Executive Chairman of Nanoco, said
"I would like to thank shareholders for their overwhelming
support for the Board in rejecting all of the Requisitionists'
resolutions by such strong margins.
"As a Board, we are always open to scrutiny and critique. We
recognise that the Requisitionists' actions and unfounded
allegations have caused damage to perceptions of Nanoco and its
value. The actions of the Requisitionists have been value
destructive for shareholders in that they have required a
significant amount of management time, time which should have been
spent running the business and generating value for
shareholders.
"The Board has always striven to act in the best interests of
all shareholders and will continue to do so. Going forward we will
respond to shareholder feedback by further improving our
communications, adding new electronics sector experience to the
Board, while delivering increases in shareholder value.
"The business is in a better position than it's ever been. The
organic business is at an exciting inflection point, with funding
underpinned by the litigation proceeds. We are actively pursuing
further licencing activity, with our position strengthened by the
validation of our IP in the Samsung litigation process. We have
also committed to returning up to GBP40m of the net litigation
proceeds to Shareholders in February 2024.
"We thank shareholders for their confidence in the Group's Board
and strategy and look forward to updating you later in the
year."
Full details of each resolution were set out in the Notice of
General Meeting which is available on the Company's website at
www.nanocotechnologies.com . In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2,
copies of all the resolutions passed as special business at the
Annual General Meeting have been submitted to the National Storage
Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection at National
Storage Mechanism | FCA
