Results of General Meeting

The board of directors of the Company is pleased to announce that at the General Meeting of the Company held on 21 December 2022, all of the resolutions were passed by way of a poll. The voting was as follows:

Resolution Votes For (including discretion) % Votes Against %
1 - Adoption of new articles 106,276,749 99.98 17,000 0.02
2 - Changes to investment policy 106,276,622 99.98 17,000 0.02

Following the successful outcome of the vote, the Company has satisfied all conditions to enable it to offer FSF's investors the option to elect to receive distributions "in kind" of carbon credits. It is not currently the intention to commence the sale or distribution of any voluntary carbon credits in advance of 2030. All carbon credits created from the current wave of investment will be fully distributed or sold not later than 2050.

The approvals also satisfy the requirements of the London Stock Exchange who granted the Company its Voluntary Carbon Market designation on 5 December 2022.

About the Company

Foresight Sustainable Forestry Company Plc ("the Company") is an externally managed investment company investing in a diversified portfolio of UK forestry and afforestation assets. Targeting a net total return of more than CPI +5%, the Company provides investors with the opportunity for real returns and capital appreciation driven by the prevailing global imbalance between supply and demand for timber; the inflation-protection qualities of UK land freeholds; and biological tree growth of 3% to 4% not correlated to financial markets. It also offers outstanding sustainability and ESG attributes and access to carbon units related to carbon sequestration from new afforestation planting. The Company targets value creation as the afforestation projects successfully achieve development milestones in the process of converting open ground into established commercial forest and woodland areas. The Company is seeking to make a direct contribution in the fight against climate change through forestry and afforestation carbon sequestration initiatives and to preserve and proactively enhance natural capital and biodiversity across its portfolio. It is managed by Foresight Group LLP.  https://fsfc.foresightgroup.eu/
