Five Years of Progress: Octopus Looks Ahead to Key Shareholder Vote

3rd June 2025 | Octopus Renewables (FTSE 250)

Since its IPO in 2019, FTSE 250 Octopus Renewables Infrastructure Trust (ORIT) has grown into a significant investor in clean energy infrastructure. Over the past five years, the trust has built a diversified portfolio of renewable energy assets across the UK and Europe, delivering a combination of sustainable income and capital growth for shareholders.

Watch the short video below for a snapshot of ORIT’s achievements to date.

 

As outlined at the time of launch, ORIT committed to offering shareholders the opportunity to vote on the continuation of the company after five years. That moment has now arrived. On Friday 13 June 2025 at 10am, ORIT will hold its Annual General Meeting (AGM), during which shareholders will vote on 16 resolutions, including the continuation of the trust.

All shareholders — whether attending the AGM in person or not — are encouraged to take steps to cast their vote in advance. This includes reading the Notice of AGM and the full list of resolutions in the Annual Report (page 203), reviewing the explanatory notes (page 205), and submitting a proxy vote or voting electronically as outlined in the report.

Those who hold their shares through a platform or broker should contact their provider directly if they have not received voting instructions or are unsure how to take part. In some cases, action may be required to ensure voting rights are exercised on time.

The Directors of ORIT have unanimously recommended that shareholders vote in favour of all 16 resolutions. The deadline to submit proxy votes is 10am on 11 June 2025. While advance voting is necessary, the AGM will be broadcast live via Investor Meet Company. Shareholders can register to attend at: https://lnkd.in/d3zT4dhb

For those wishing to submit questions ahead of the AGM, queries can be sent by email to: oritcosec@apexgroup.com. The deadline for submitting questions is the close of business on 11 June 2025.
