nVent shareholders approve key proposals at AGM

nVent Electric plc (NYSE:NVT), a global leader in electrical connection and protection solutions, announced the results of its 2025 Annual General Meeting (AGM) held on May 16, 2025. The company, headquartered in London, United Kingdom (TADAWUL:4280), saw a strong turnout with over 90% of outstanding shares represented at the meeting.

Shareholders voted on several key proposals, including the election of director nominees, executive compensation, and the reappointment of the company’s independent auditor. All nine director nominees were elected to one-year terms, with the majority of votes cast in favor of each candidate. The advisory vote on executive compensation also passed, reflecting shareholder approval of the company’s executive pay structure.

Additionally, shareholders recommended, by non-binding advisory vote, that future advisory votes on executive compensation occur annually. This recommendation was accepted by the board and will be included in future proxy materials until the next required vote on this matter at the 2031 AGM.

In a binding vote, shareholders ratified the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as nVent’s independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025, and authorized the Audit and Finance Committee to set the auditor’s remuneration.

Furthermore, shareholders approved the authorization for the board to allot and issue new shares under Irish law and to opt out of statutory preemption rights. This provides the company with flexibility in its capital-raising efforts.

Lastly, the proposal to authorize the price range at which nVent can re-allot shares it holds as treasury shares under Irish law was also approved, giving the company additional leeway in managing its share capital.

The outcomes of these votes are significant as they shape the governance and strategic direction of nVent Electric plc. The company’s management and board expressed gratitude to the shareholders for their participation and support. The decisions made at this AGM are expected to support nVent’s continued growth and value creation.

This report is based on the official statement released by nVent Electric plc in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
