not counted in the calculation of the proportion of the votes ‘for’ and
‘against’ a
resolution.
Shell Chief Executive Officer Wael Sawan said: “Shell’s shareholders have
strongly backed our strategy to deliver more value with less emissions as
outlined at Shell’s Capital Markets Day 2025. Our focus on performance,
discipline and simplification enables us to invest in providing the energy the
world needs today, and in helping to build the low-carbon energy system of the
future.”
The level of votes on Resolution 22 requires us to explain what actions we
intend to take to consult shareholders in order to understand the reasons
behind the result, and report back within six months. We will meet this
obligation by continuing to engage with shareholders and we welcome feedback
in terms of our LNG disclosures as we prepare the note on our website related
to the LNG market, Shell’s LNG business, and how our LNG business
reconciles with our broader strategy and climate commitments.
