Notice of AGM
Park Group plc, the UK's leading multi-retailer redemption product provider to corporate and consumer markets, announces that its Annual General Meeting will be held at 20 Chapel Street, Liverpool, Merseyside, L3 9AG on Tuesday 24 September 2019, at 11:00am.
In connection with this, the following documents have been posted or made available to shareholders today:
·; Notice of AGM; and
·; Proxy Form for the AGM.
As shareholders will be aware, the Group undertook a strategy review in 2018 designed to position the Group for growth. As part of this review, the Board concluded that Park Group plc would benefit from changing its name and the brands under which it trades.
Accordingly, the Notice of AGM circulated includes a special resolution from the Directors (Resolution 8) seeking shareholder approval to change the name of the Company to Appreciate Group plc.
It is the Board's belief that this new name will more accurately reflect the Group's product range and position as an innovative payments, savings and rewards provider to corporate and consumer markets. It also allows the Group to take full advantage of the growth opportunities available in an expanding market.
Copies of these documents have been submitted to the National Storage Mechanism and will be available for inspection at http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/NSM.
