Colombo, Sri Lanka – 31 August 2026 – Kelani Cables PLC (CSE: KELANI), a prominent leader in Sri Lanka’s cable manufacturing industry, has today issued pivotal documents for its esteemed shareholders. The company has made available the official Form of Proxy for its upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM) and a dedicated request form for the comprehensive 2025/2026 Annual Report. This significant announcement, disseminated via the Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE), also underscores Kelani Cables PLC’s proactive push towards digitalization, urging its shareholder base to update their communication preferences for a more efficient future.
Navigating the Upcoming Annual General Meeting
The Form of Proxy is an indispensable tool, empowering shareholders to designate a representative to attend, speak, and cast votes on their behalf at the company’s Annual General Meeting. Kelani Cables PLC’s AGM for the financial year 2025/2026 is officially scheduled for 30 September 2026 at 11:00 am. Shareholders who may be unable to attend the meeting in person are highly encouraged to utilise this form to ensure their perspectives are represented and their votes counted on crucial company resolutions.
The document provides explicit instructions for the proper completion of the proxy form. It specifies that for individual shareholders, the form must be signed by the appointor or their duly authorised attorney. In the case of corporate entities, the form should be signed by an authorised officer or attorney on behalf of the corporation, in strict adherence to the company’s Articles of Association and the Companies Act.
Kelani Cables PLC Drives Digital Communication Strategy
In a forward-thinking move aimed at enhancing operational efficiency and promoting sustainability, Kelani Cables PLC has incorporated an “Important Notice to Shareholders” within its recent announcement. This notice highlights a recent amendment to the company’s Articles of Association, which aligns with its overarching digitalization initiative.
Shareholders are now formally requested to furnish their full name, residential address, email address, and NIC/Company Registration Number. This vital information should be submitted to investor.relations@acl.lk. By doing so, the company will be able to dispatch future Notices of Meetings directly to shareholders’ provided email addresses, thereby streamlining communication processes and diminishing reliance on traditional, paper-based postal methods.
Accessing the Comprehensive 2025/2026 Annual Report
In conjunction with the proxy form, a specific request form has been issued for shareholders desiring a printed copy of the Kelani Cables PLC Annual Report for the Financial Year 2025/2026. While the company is actively championing digital accessibility, it remains committed to providing physical reports for those shareholders who express a preference for them.
