Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements 01 The right assets in the right places Our warehouses play a crucial role in the operations of our customers, enabling extraordinary things to happen. Our big box warehouses are located on Europe’s major transport corridors, from which goods are distributed regionally, nationally and internationally. Our urban warehouses are located in and around Europe’s major cities, allowing quick access to customers and easy access for companies’ workforces, and include workshops, laboratories, data centres, showrooms and distribution facilities, among a wide variety of other uses. The rise of e-commerce, in particular, has had a major influence on investor and occupier demand for warehousing: retailers are having to reconfigure their supply chains to cater for both their store networks and consumers who buy products online and expect them to be delivered quickly to locations convenient to them. SEGRO is the only listed company to offer this combination and scale of big box and urban warehouses on a pan-European basis. In response to this demand, we are reporting some of the strongest metrics in our recent history, with a record delivery of new developments and a strong pipeline of new space under construction capable of driving growth for the coming years.

  • COVID-19 Proxy Governance Update
    COVID-19 Proxy Governance Update 2020 AGM mid-season review FROM EQUINITI 01 Looking back and planning ahead It is incredible to note that it has been over 12 weeks since the official announcement on 23 March of the UK Government’s Stay at Home Measures, and nearly seven months since the severity of the pandemic became apparent in China. Over the said period, PLC boards, company secretaries and investor relations officers have kept their corporate calendars going thanks to rapid adoption of modified regulatory guidelines and inventive modes of engagement with investors. With annual general meetings being an obvious highlight in the corporate calendar, we take stock of the progress made so far over the 2020 AGM season, as well as using what we learned to plan ahead. Now that we are over the first ‘hump’ with the busy period of May AGMs out of the way, we are readying for the second ‘peak’ of June and July AGMs, and then an ‘easing’ until the second ‘mini’ season in the early autumn. As such, in this update, we look at: • 2020 AGM season statistics…so far • Proxy adviser engagement and ISS recommendations review • High-level assumptions for Q3 and Q4 • Relevant updates from the regulators, industry bodies and proxy advisers • Communications in the COVID-19 world – special commentary by leading financial PR firm,Camarco • How has COVID-19 impacted activism – special commentary by international law firm,White & Case 02 2020 AGM Season Statistics…so far Scope of data To assess progress and forecast what is to come, we look at the key statistics for the UK AGM season 2020 thus far.
