The Company's AGM is due to be held on Wednesday 29 April 2020. In light of the Government's advice, the Board has taken the decision to move the location of the AGM to the Company's Head Office at Persimmon House, Fulford, York, YO19 4FE.

The well-being of our shareholders is vitally important to us and we recommend that shareholders adhere to the current instructions to stay at home. To enable shareholders to listen to the proceedings of the AGM from their homes, the proceedings will be available by a webcast.

If you are a shareholder and would like to ask the Board a question on the formal business of the meeting, please email your question to company.secretarial@persimmonhomes.com in advance of the AGM. Answers will be provided on this website in due course.

The Company will ensure that the meeting adheres to the Government's advice around social distancing and enhanced hygiene measures will be in place. To further support these efforts there will be only limited Company representation at the meeting. We will also reduce the length of the meeting by limiting it to the formal business required.

We encourage shareholders to vote by proxy on the resolutions set out in the Notice of Meeting as early as possible. Please click here to access our Registrar’s eproxy voting website. Please note the deadline for submitting proxies will be 12.00pm on Monday 27 April 2020.

In view of the Company's decision to postpone the proposed 110p per share payment, the Board announces its intention to withdraw Resolution 2 as set out in the Notice of Meeting, dated 17 March 2020, relating to the proposed payment of a final dividend for 2019.
