Paul Reynolds
Well, good morning, everyone. Glad to see the sun has come out today for Computershare’s Annual General Meeting. I am Paul Reynolds, I’m the Chair of Computershare, and I welcome you to our 2025 meeting. We’re delighted to offer our shareholders and proxy holders the choice of participating in today’s meeting in person here at our offices in Yara Falls or via the hybrid meeting platform. The AGM is an opportunity for shareholders, whether attending here in person or through the online platform to hear from us and to put questions to the Board and to the external auditor.
There is a quorum present, and I therefore now declare the meeting open. Let me commence our business with some introductions. Next to me here. First in the line there is Computershare’s President and CEO, Stuart Irving. Then we have the nonexecutive Directors present today, Tiffany Fuller; John Nendick; Abi Cleland; and last but not least, Joe Velli at the end there. Unfortunately, not able to be with us today is Gerrard Schmid, our Canadian base Director who is undergoing a medical procedure.
I also want to welcome to the meeting, our Group CFO, Nick Oldfield, he’s up front here. Group General Counsel and Company Secretary, Dominic Horsley, the side here. and upfront Marcus Laithwaite from PricewaterhouseCoopers, our external auditor. And Marcus is available to answer any questions you have about the conduct of the audit of Computershare’s financial statements, the preparation of the content of the auditor’s report, the accounting policies adopted by Computershare in the preparation of the financial statements and the independence of the auditor in relation to the conduct of the audit.
