Notice of General Meeting

BATM (LSE: BVC; TASE: BVC), a leading provider of real-time technologies for networking solutions and medical laboratory systems, gives notice that a General Meeting (the “Meeting”) of the Group is to be held at 12:00 p.m. Israel-time (10:00 a.m. UK-time) on 17 March 2022 at the Group’s registered office at 4 Ha’harash Street, Nave Ne’eman Industrial Area, P.O.B. 7318, 4524075 Hod Hasharon, Israel.

The purpose of the Meeting is to seek shareholder approval for the buyback of up to 44,053,412 ordinary shares of NIS0.01 (“Ordinary Shares”) in the capital of the Group (the “Buyback Programme”), representing 10% of the Group’s issued share capital as at the date of this announcement. The Group has a strong balance sheet and the Buyback Programme, which would be funded from the Group’s net cash, forms part of the Board’s broader strategy to deliver shareholder value.  

In order to enable shareholder engagement and participation for those unable to physically attend the Meeting, shareholders will be able to access the Meeting via videoconference. Please note, shareholders will not be able to vote at the Meeting via the videoconference. Shareholders attending the Meeting via videoconference are therefore strongly encouraged to submit their vote in advance the Meeting.
