(the
"Company")
Annual Report and Accounts
and Notice of AGM
Baltic Classifieds Group PLC, (LSE:
BCG), a leading online classifieds group in the Baltics, confirms
that the Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 30 April
2024 and Notice of the 2024 Annual General Meeting ("AGM") have
today been issued to shareholders.
Copies of the 2024 Annual Report and
Accounts and the Notice of AGM are available to download from the
Company's website at https://balticclassifieds.com.
The Company also announces that its
2024 AGM will be held at 11.00 am (local time) / 9.00 am (BST) on
Friday 27 September 2024, at G.D. Kuverto g. 15, Neringa, LT-93123,
Lithuania.
The Company notes that the sale
announced on 12 July 2024 by Antler EquityCo S.à r.l ("Antler"),
which is controlled by funds advised by Apax Partners LLP ("Apax"),
resulted in a full exit by Antler of its position in the Company.
Accordingly, the Relationship Agreement between the Company and
Antler dated 30 June 2021 (as amended from time to time) has
terminated in accordance with its terms.
As Antler no longer has the right to
nominate a director under the Relationship Agreement, the Board of
the Company has invited Tom Hall to continue as a Non-Executive
Director and Nomination Committee member. Tom has made a valuable
contribution to the Board over the last three years and the Board
continues to benefit from Tom's deep investment and sector
expertise.
As the Company's AGM Notice had been
finalised for printing prior to the Antler sale, the off-market
buyback contract is no longer relevant and, accordingly, the
Company confirms that the resolution to approve the off-market
buyback contract (Resolution 20) is now withdrawn.
The withdrawal of Resolution 20 does
not otherwise affect the validity of the Notice of Meeting or the
form of proxy. The numbering of all other resolutions at the AGM
will remain unchanged.
In accordance with Listing Rule
9.6.1, a copy of the Annual Report and Accounts, Notice of Meeting
and form of proxy for the AGM have been submitted to the National
Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available for inspection
at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
