Trinity Biotech plc Announces Results of Annual General Meeting

 

At the recent Annual General Meeting of the Company shareholders approved the following resolutions (as more fully set out in the Notice of AGM dated September 4, 2023):

 

1.	To re-appoint Grant Thornton as statutory auditor of the Company to hold office until the conclusion of the next annual general meeting at which accounts are laid before the Company.

 

2.	To authorise the board of directors to fix the statutory auditors' remuneration.

 

4.	To elect Dr Andrew Omidvar as a director.

 

Resolution 3, which sought to re-elect Thomas Lindsay as a director (who retired at the Annual General Meeting) was not approved by the requisite majority of shareholders who voted.

 

After the AGM, the Board of Directors resolved to appoint Mr. Lindsay as a director of the Company on an interim basis until the next Annual General Meeting given, amongst other reasons, the obligation of the Company to maintain an independent audit committee, which is a role Mr. Lindsay fulfills.
