Capital Reduction
Renold, a leading international supplier of industrial chains and related power transmission products, announces the completion of the Capital Reduction, as described in the Notice of General Meeting (which is available on Renold's website at investors.renold.com) and as approved by shareholders at the General Meeting held on 15 April 2021. The order of the High Court confirming the Capital Reduction and the statement of capital approved by the High Court in connection therewith were registered by the Registrar of Companies earlier today, whereupon the Capital Reduction became effective.
Total Voting Rights
Renold confirms that, following the Capital Reduction, the Company's issued share capital consists of 225,417,740 ordinary shares of 5p each, all carrying one vote each, and 580,482 units of 6 per cent. cumulative preference stock of £1 each carrying no voting rights. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury. Accordingly, the total voting rights in the Company are 225,417,740 ordinary shares.
The figure of 225,417,740 should be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
