Annual Report and Accounts and Notice of Annual General Meeting  

Hornby Plc, the international models and collectibles group, confirms that the Notice of Annual General Meeting and proxy voting information have been sent to shareholders along with the Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021. Copies are available on the Company's website:  http://www.hornby.plc.uk

Hornby's Annual General Meeting will be held at 11am on Wednesday 15 September 2021 at the Company's head office at Westwood Industrial Estate, Margate, Kent CT9 4JX.

At the time of writing the Notice of AGM, it is possible that some form of pandemic-related restrictions on indoor gatherings will continue to affect our ability to welcome shareholders at the meeting. If attendance at the venue is permissible, it is likely that numbers will be limited. We therefore recommend that shareholders do not attend the AGM in person and instead appoint the chair of the meeting to act as their proxy. If any shareholders or their proxies do intend to attend the meeting in person, we encourage them to advise the Company at least 48 hours in advance of the meeting by email to [e-mail] . Any such communication will not provide a guarantee of admittance to the AGM where to do so would be in breach of laws and official guidelines governing public gatherings and/or the need to protect the health and safety of those already in the meeting.

Our website contains the latest information for shareholders and will be updated before the AGM should there be any changes to the arrangements set out above. Where appropriate, we will notify shareholders of the change via a Regulatory Information Service announcement as early as is possible before the date of the meeting.

You can appoint your proxy electronically by visiting www.signalshares.com where full details of the procedure can be found. You will need your investor code ("IVC"). This is printed on dividend stationery and share certificates or can be obtained by contacting the Company's Registrar, Link Group. You may also request a hard copy proxy form directly from the Company's Registrars. Your proxy appointment(s) and instructions, whether submitted by hard copy or made electronically, must be received by Link Group by no later than 11:00 BST on Monday 13 September 2021. Any appointments and instructions received after this time, or sent to any address other than that provided, will not be valid. A proxy may also be appointed by CREST members by using the CREST electronic proxy appointment service.

Procedurally, the format of the Meeting will be restricted to the formal business of the AGM. However, we encourage shareholders to submit questions for the Board relating to the business of the meeting by 15:00 BST on Friday 10 September 2021 by email to [e-mail] . The Board will, where appropriate, post answers on our website as soon as practicable after the AGM.
