Ken Meyer was elected as a new director, receiving 99.72% of the votes.

The managing director and chief executive officer F26 long term incentive grant was approved with 98.28% of votes in favour. All resolutions were decided by way of poll, reflecting significant shareholder support for the board's recommendations.
