("Avacta" or the "Group" or the "Company")
Posting of Annual Report and Revised Notice of AGM
LONDON and PHILADELPHIA - June 9, 2025 - Avacta Therapeutics (AIM: AVCT), a life sciences company developing innovative, targeted oncology drugs, today announces
that its Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the Notice of Annual General Meeting ("AGM") are available on the Company's website at https://avacta.com/investors/investor-resources/.
Copies of the Annual Report and Accounts and the Notice of AGM will be posted today to registered shareholders who have elected to receive them in paper form.
The Company had intended to hold the AGM on Monday, June 30, 2025 however due to some logistical considerations and investor feedback on the prior date, the Company will now convene the AGM for Wednesday, July 2, 2025 at 9:00 am BST. The meeting will be held at the offices of Peel Hunt LLP, 7th Floor, 100 Liverpool Street, London EC2M 2AT (the "Venue").
The Venue has a capacity of approximately 120 people. Registered shareholders have a right to attend the AGM. In addition, the current expectation is that the chair of the AGM will, at their discretion, permit beneficial shareholders to attend in person. Shareholders (registered or beneficial) who propose to attend the AGM in person are requested to pre-register their interest and, to assist the Company in its preparation for the AGM, prove their shareholding by emailing their letter of representation to ICR at avacta@icrhealthcare.com by Friday, June 27, 2025. Any failure to pre-register will not, of itself, preclude a registered shareholder from attending the AGM in person (or by proxy).
Only registered shareholders who attend in person or by proxy will be able to vote on the day. Details of how to submit a proxy vote are contained in the Notice of the AGM.
The Company will provide a business update following the AGM, which will be recorded and uploaded on the Company's website for shareholders who are not able to attend in person. All presentation materials will be made available on the website at the end of the day and no new material information will be provided.
Early pre-registration to attend the AGM in person is recommended as the venue's capacity is limited (as referred to above) and, for non-registered shareholders, registrations will be dealt with on a first come, first served basis. Those attending in person are also recommended to arrive around 30 minutes before the start of the meeting to ensure that the venue's admission procedures can be adhered to.
