Mining giant Rio Tinto has today issued updated notices for its 2025 Annual General Meetings (AGMs) for both Rio Tinto plc $RIO (-1,12%) and for Rio Tinto Limited $RIO (-0,51%) have been published. The revised notices include a resolution requested by certain shareholders which will now be voted on jointly by shareholders of both businesses.
The resolution in question, identified as Resolution 21, has been added to the Rio Tinto Limited Notice to make it the same as the corresponding item in the Rio Tinto plc Notice. This makes it a joint resolution matter. This adjustment demonstrates how the Company is responding to shareholder demands and adopting a consistent approach to the voting process across both businesses.
All other agenda items for the meetings remain unchanged from the previous invitations dated 19.02.2025. The AGMs are scheduled for 03.04.2025 in London (Rio Tinto plc) and 01.05.2025 in Perth (Rio Tinto Limited). Shareholders can choose to attend the meetings in person or join virtually.
The updated invitations and proxy forms are now available on the company's website and have been submitted to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). In addition, the invitation for Rio Tinto plc will be lodged with the UK National Storage Mechanism.
This announcement underlines Rio Tinto's commitment to transparency and active shareholder engagement. It also emphasizes the importance of shareholder involvement in company decisions.
The update is part of regular corporate communications and is based on a Rio Tinto press release. This will ensure that all shareholders are aware of the latest developments regarding the forthcoming AGMs.
