Shearwater Group: Result of General Meeting

· Issued by Shearwater Group plc via RNS

Summary by 6ix AI

Shearwater Group plc, a cybersecurity, advisory and managed security services group, said shareholders passed both special resolutions, which cover a capital reduction and a related change to its articles of association, at its General Meeting on October 13, 2026. The vote was a poll, meaning votes were counted by shares held.

Key details

  • Resolution 1 will cancel and extinguish the company's existing deferred shares and cancel its share premium account (the amount paid for shares above their nominal value), subject to confirmation by the High Court of Justice in England and Wales.
  • Resolution 2 will, subject to and with effect from the capital reduction becoming effective, amend the company's articles of association to remove provisions that relate specifically to the deferred shares.

What’s still pending

  • The cancellation of the deferred shares and the share premium account still requires confirmation by the High Court of Justice in England and Wales.
  • The change to the articles of association takes effect only if and when the capital reduction becomes effective.
