Resolution 18 was a special resolution seeking authority to make market
purchases of the Company's own shares. Resolution 19 was a special resolution
relating to the Company's ability to call a General Meeting, other than AGMs,
on 14 clear days' notice. Although the Board considered the flexibility
afforded by these authorities to be in the best interests of the Company, it
took the decision to withdraw Resolutions 18 and 19 from the agenda of the
AGM, following further engagement with some of the Company's shareholders. The
Company will continue its engagement with shareholders on the resolutions.

ASOS Chair, Natasja Laheij, commented on the vote:

''We are pleased that all resolutions put to the meeting were supported by a
significant majority of shareholders. We remain committed to the
transformation strategy the management team is implementing. ASOS made
meaningful progress against its plans in FY25, and we are confident in our
continued progress in the year ahead. We will continue to engage in
constructive dialogue with shareholders, with a clear focus on driving
long‑term shareholder value.''

Full details of the resolutions are available in the Notice of Annual General
Meeting on the Company's website:  www.asosplc.com (http://www.asosplc.com) .

 

As at the date of the AGM, the Company's issued and fully paid share capital
consists of 119,613,848 Ordinary Shares with a nominal value of 3.5 pence each
("Ordinary Shares"), with one voting right per share. The Company does not
hold any Ordinary Shares in Treasury.  The total number of voting rights in
the Company is therefore 119,613,848.

 

In accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.2, copies of the resolutions that do not
constitute ordinary business at an annual general meeting have been submitted
to the National Storage Mechanism and will be available for inspection
at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
