PGG Wrightson Limited Special Meeting Results
PGG Wrightson Limited (PGW) held a Special Shareholders Meeting in Christchurch today.
PGW Chairman Rodger Finlay said, “Today our shareholders considered two special resolutions.”
“The first resolution was regarding the scheme of arrangement to distribute approximately $234 million to
shareholders. This resolution achieved strong support with 99.95% percent of shareholders casting their votes
in favour of the Board’s recommendation.”
“The second resolution sought support from shareholders to revoke and amend PGW’s constitution to comply
with the new NZX Listing Rules. Again, this resolution received strong support with 98.82% percent of
shareholder votes cast in favour.”
“Following this endorsement by shareholders we will now make application to the High Court seeking final
orders to implement the scheme. Assuming orders are made by the Court, we would expect the scheme to
be implemented with payment made to shareholders in early August,” said Mr Finlay.
