Evoke : 2025 AGM Update

About this update from Evoke Plc
In accordance with Provision 4 of the UK Corporate Governance Code, evoke plc ("evoke" or "Company") is providing this update statement on its engagement with shareholders following the Annual General Meeting ("AGM") held on 28 May 2025. Resolutions numbered 16 and 17, which sought authority to allot shares and to disapply statutory pre-emption rights in line with UK institutional shareholder guidance and prevailing market practice for UK listed companies, received votes against representing approximately 20.8% of the total votes cast. The Company acknowledges that this constitutes a significant minority vote against these resolutions. Since the AGM, the Company has undertaken further engagement to understand the reasons for the level of opposition. Feedback indicated that these votes reflected, among other things, the voting policy of certain individual institutional investors and the potential for dilution especially in the absence of a specific transaction for which the authority would be used. The Board values the feedback received and remains committed to maintaining an open and transparent dialogue with shareholders.
