An AGM (also known as an annual shareholder meeting) is a yearly meeting between shareholders and board members where they gather to: Discuss business matters. Review financial statements. Address resolutions.
Yes. No matter how many shares of a company's stock you own, 1 share to 1,000,000 shares, you have voting rights and can attend shareholder meetings to voice your opinion. Of course, shareholders with the most stock will sway any elections because of their equity position in the company.
A general meeting is a members' meeting, but certain non-members may also be entitled to attend. It's important to check the articles of association and any shareholders' agreement to determine the rules and restrictions for attending general meetings.
The procedures at the AGM are basically the same as those at an ordinary committee meeting. Motions must be seconded, and a vote (generally a show of hands) taken. Nominations must be called for from the floor for Office bearers - Chairperson, Deputy Chairperson, Secretary and Treasurer - and Committee members.
The members (including shareholders) of the company are entitled to attend and vote at the AGM. Members can cast their votes by a physical ballot or postal ballot or through e-voting. Members can appoint proxies to attend an AGM and vote on their behalf only when it is a poll vote.
In many companies, every shareholder or guarantor can attend and vote at general meetings.
Directors typically call general meetings. However, any shareholder holding at least 5% of the company shares can request that one be called if they believe it is necessary. A director should notify the shareholders once a general meeting has been called.
