The 2026 Annual General Meetings (AGMs) for Rio Tinto plc and Rio Tinto Limited will be held contemporaneously on 6 May 2026, in London, UK and in Perth, Australia, respectively. The meetings will be linked by audiovisual communication facilities so that the shareholders of each of Rio Tinto Limited and Rio Tinto plc can be brought together and provided with the opportunity to listen to and participate in a joint discussion.
The Board of Directors will be present in person at the Rio Tinto Limited meeting in Perth. Shareholders of Rio Tinto Limited may attend the AGM either in person in Perth or online. Likewise, Rio Tinto plc shareholders may attend the Rio Tinto plc meeting in person in London where they will be able to hear directly from the Board by way of a live stream from Perth or participate online. All eligible participants will have the opportunity to ask questions of the Board and to vote on the AGM business.
The Board values the opportunity to engage with all shareholders and is committed to ensuring fairness and parity of access to the Board. In 2027 directors will be physically present at the Rio Tinto plc AGM in London, with the Rio Tinto Limited AGM being held contemporaneously in Australia. It is currently intended that this arrangement for holding our AGMs at the same time, with joint proceedings and Q&A, will continue with the directors alternating their attendance each year between London and Australia.
By utilising the available technology, this new approach streamlines our previous practice of holding two separate AGMs, one month apart. This will also allow shareholders effectively to participate in both meetings, as well as enabling the results of the polls of both the Rio Tinto plc and Rio Tinto Limited meetings to be announced after the conclusion of the contemporaneous meetings, without delay between meetings.
2026 Notices of meeting will be issued on or about 16 March 2026 and will contain full details of this new arrangement and how shareholder can participate.
