Guy Strapp
Gentlemen, and welcome to today’s Extraordinary General Meeting. My name is Guy Strapp, and I am delighted to address you as a Director and Chair of Platinum Asset Management. I’d like to begin by acknowledging that I’m speaking to you today from the lands of the Gadigal people from the Eora Nation. I also acknowledge the traditional custodians of the various lands on which each of you join the meeting from today. I hereby pay my respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
It’s now 9:30, the appointed time for holding the meeting, and I’m advised that the necessary quorum is present.
The Notice of Meeting dated 21st August 2025 was published on the ASX market announcements platform and sent to shareholders. So unless there are any objections, I will take the notice as read. Okay. There are no objections, so I declare the meeting open.
As outlined in the Notice of Meeting, today, we will be seeking shareholder approval for a number of resolutions to give effect to the proposed merger of Platinum and First Maven Proprietary Limited trading as L1 Capital. We are holding the meeting as a hybrid meeting to encourage broader participation amongst our shareholders.
Please now allow me to introduce your Board of Directors. Firstly, Jeff Peters, our Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director; and now my fellow directors, Anne Loveridge AM, Chair of the company’s Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee; Rachel Grimes, AM, Chair of the company’s Nomination and Remuneration Committee; Philip Moffitt
