Board Committee changes

 

Currys plc (the 'Company') announces changes to the responsibilities of Board
members under UK Listing Rule 6.4.6. due to the closure of the Company's
Environmental, Social and Governance ('ESG') Committee.

 

The ESG Committee was established as a committee of the Board in 2023 and has
since played a critical role in driving the establishment of the Company's ESG
strategy and goals and the oversight of the embedding and delivery of this
strategy across the Company's businesses. The Board has considered the
progress made on the ESG strategy, and the upcoming reporting requirements for
sustainability and has agreed that it is the right time to evolve the
governance structure for ESG. An existing Group Sustainability Leadership Team
("GSLT") comprised of functional leaders within executive teams will manage
the day-to-day oversight and delivery of ESG goals and the management of ESG
risks and opportunities. The other responsibilities that have been held by the
ESG Committee will now be shared between the Board and the Audit Committee as
appropriate.

 

The ESG Committee had been comprised of non-executive directors, Eileen
Burbidge (Committee Chair), Magdalena Gerger and Octavia Morley. Eileen
Burbidge stepped down from the Board at the conclusion of the Company's Annual
General Meeting on 4 September 2025. Magdalena Gerger will now attend GSLT
meetings to ensure continued independent oversight of ESG and to support the
reporting of the GSLT activities to the Board. Octavia Morley will continue in
her role as Senior Independent Director and Remuneration Committee Chair.
