Premier Foods plc ("Premier Foods" or the "Company")

 

Annual Report and Notice of Annual General Meeting 2021 ("Notice of AGM")

 

Following the release of Premier Food's preliminary results on 19 May 2021, for the 53 week period ended 3 April 2021, the Company has today posted its 2020/21 annual report to shareholders.

 

The Company has also issued a Notice of AGM. At the time of issuing the Notice of AGM, the prevailing UK Government guidance envisages that the holding of a physical general meeting will be possible. We are therefore proposing to hold this year's AGM at 11.00 am on Friday 23 July 2021 at the offices of Gowling WLG (UK) LLP, 4 More London Riverside, London, SE1 2AU, and to welcome those shareholders who we are able to accommodate safely in accordance with the UK Government's guidance.

 

In order to protect the health of shareholders and colleagues, a number of measures have been put in place this year (please refer to the Notice of AGM for full details):

 

· Attendance at the AGM will be restricted to shareholders only and no guests will be permitted to attend on this occasion.

· To enable us to comply with the prevailing UK Government guidance and social distancing measures, shareholders wishing to attend the meeting in person must notify us by no later than 11:00 am on Monday 19 July 2021 by registering via investor.relations@premierfoods.co.uk.

 

Given the continuing uncertainty around potential changes to the UK Government's guidance, and the duration of social distancing measures and restrictions on physical gatherings, we must ensure that we are able to adapt the proposed format of, and arrangements for, our AGM efficiently in the event of any change in circumstances. We will continue to monitor the evolving impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, and the UK Government's guidance, and will notify shareholders of any such changes as soon as practicable via our website (www.premierfoods.co.uk). Shareholders should check our website to ensure they have the most up to date information available regarding the AGM. We would like to thank all shareholders in advance for their co-operation and understanding.

 

Under the present circumstances, shareholders are strongly encouraged to vote in advance of the AGM, by submitting a form of proxy electronically or by post as soon as possible, and these must be received by no later than 11.00 am on Wednesday 21 July 2021. Shareholders who wish to appoint a proxy are encouraged to appoint the Chairman of the meeting as their proxy.

 

Copies of the annual report and Notice of AGM are available to view or download from the Company's website, www.premierfoods.co.uk , and have been submitted to the Financial Conduct Authority's National Storage Mechanism (NSM), and will shortly be available for inspection at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism
