Opening remarks and agenda
Attendees were reminded to silence phones and follow emergency procedures if needed.
The meeting was conducted in a hybrid format, allowing both in-person and virtual participation, with online attendees able to ask questions and vote.
Chairman Greg Barclay opened the meeting to discuss the proposed acquisition of all shares by Shift4 Holdings Limited via a scheme of arrangement.
Shareholder proposals
The main proposal was the approval of a scheme for the acquisition of all shares by Shift4 Payments at NZD $1.20 per share, near the midpoint of the independent adviser's valuation range (NZ$1.07–NZ$1.43).
Microequities, holding 13.3% of shares, intends to vote in favour.
Strategic initiatives and plans
The board considered various strategic alternatives, including continuing as a public company, before recommending the scheme.
Board received multiple unsolicited acquisition proposals in early 2025, leading to a Scheme Implementation Agreement with Shift4 Payments, LLC.
The scheme offers shareholders a significant premium and certainty of value, with 100% cash consideration.
