A shareholder’s right to be offered new shares before they are sold to outsiders, allowing existing owners to buy enough to keep their ownership percentage. Think of it like being offered the first slice of a pie so your share doesn’t shrink; it matters to investors because it protects voting power and economic value from being diluted when a company issues more stock, and it can affect how easy or costly fundraising is.
ordinary resolutions regulatory
"Resolutions 1–11 were ordinary resolutions requiring a simple majority of votes cast"
An ordinary resolution is a decision put to a company’s shareholders that is approved by a simple majority of votes cast, similar to a club decision passed when more than half the members agree. It covers routine matters such as electing directors, approving annual accounts or declaring dividends, and matters approved this way bind the company. Investors care because ordinary resolutions determine everyday governance and can change leadership, financial distributions, or policies with only majority support.
special resolution regulatory
"resolution 12 was a special resolution requiring a 75% majority of votes cast"
A special resolution is a formal shareholder vote that requires a higher-than-normal majority—typically around three-quarters—to approve major corporate changes, such as altering the company’s governing rules, selling the business, or winding it up. It matters to investors because it signals decisive, potentially value-altering actions that cannot be passed by a simple majority; think of it as needing extra votes to change the rules of a club, so minority interests are harder to override.
poll regulatory
"Voting was conducted by poll."
A poll is either a formal vote or a short survey that measures people’s views. In corporate settings it often means a shareholder vote on a proposal, while in market coverage it can mean a public or investor survey of sentiment; both act like a school election or neighborhood survey that reveals which way people want things to go. Poll results matter because they can decide company actions or move market expectations and prices.
