Amigo Holdings PLC
("Amigo" or the "Company")
Notice of 2024 Annual General Meeting ('Notice')
Amigo Holdings PLC (LSE: AMGO), a provider of mid-cost credit in the UK that is currently in an orderly solvent wind down, announces that its AGM will be held at Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel, 105 St Michael's Road, Bournemouth BH2 5DU on Monday 30 September 2024 at 13.00.
Shareholders who are not able to attend in person will be able to listen to and view the Annual General Meeting via webcast. Details of the webcast will be made available on the Company's website in due course: https://www.amigoplc.com/investors.
The Board has prepared the Notice on the basis that it is in the best interests of all stakeholders to put forward resolutions that would normally be expected at an Annual General Meetings. In doing so, the Board is not expressing a view on any longevity or expected future for the Company.
The Group has been in wind-down since March 2023 and, absent a Reverse Takeover ('RTO'), the Board will continue to manage the wind-down as required under the High Court approved Fallback Solution under its Scheme of Arrangement. In this context, should there not emerge an RTO, Amigo will hold a separate General Meeting, at a date still to be determined, to seek the required shareholder approval for delisting the Company from the London Stock Exchange and to enter the Company into a Members Voluntary Liquidation.
The Company has posted to its shareholders the Notice convening the Company's AGM together with instructions on how to vote. The Notice will be available shortly on the investor section of the Company's website: www.amigoplc.com and on the National Storage Mechanism.
The Company is aware that a substantial number of shareholders hold their Amigo shares via various share dealing platforms and brokers. In order to encourage participation of Amigo shareholders in the AGM process, Amigo has prepared a brief guide to help shareholders exercise their vote, via the proxy voting service and/or attend the AGM in person. A copy of the guide for shareholders can be found on the Company website:

The person responsible for this announcement is Nicholas Beal, Company Secretary.
