Xtrackers Announces Annual General Meeting: Key Details for Shareholders

Xtrackers, a Luxembourg-based investment company with variable capital, has issued an important notice to convene its Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Shareholders. The AGM is scheduled for Friday, 24 April 2026 at 10 a.m. (Luxembourg time) at the company’s registered office, 49, avenue J.F. Kennedy, L-1855 Luxembourg. This meeting and its agenda could be significant for investors, as it involves decisions on financial results, director re-elections, and remuneration, all of which may influence future company strategy and shareholder value.

Key Points and Agenda Items

• Financial Reports: The Board of Directors and the statutory auditor (KPMG Audit S.à r.l.) will present their reports for the financial year ending 31 December 2025. The audited financial statements will be up for shareholder approval.
• Dividend and Net Results: The allocation of net results is a focal point. After interim dividend payments during 2025, the remaining net results will be carried forward. Details of dividend payments are available in the Notes to the Financial Statements section of the Annual Report, which could be relevant to shareholders tracking dividend income.
• Auditor Re-election: KPMG Audit S.à r.l. is proposed for re-election as the statutory auditor until the next AGM approving the accounts for the financial year ending 31 December 2026.
• Director Re-elections: Several directors are up for re-election, including Philippe Ah-Sun, Alfred Francois Brausch (independent and chairman), Thilo Wendenburg (independent), Stefan Kreuzkamp (external), and Simon Klein. Their continued leadership may impact strategic direction.
• Board Discharge: Shareholders will vote to discharge the Board of Directors for their performance during the 2025 financial year.
• Remuneration Decisions: The AGM will approve remuneration for independent and external Directors:
  • Alfred Francois Brausch: €30,000 per annum (as chairman)
  • Thilo Wendenburg: €25,000 per annum
  • Stefan Kreuzkamp: €12,500 per annum

  These amounts are based on the number of Sub-Funds at year-end and paid through a Fixed Fee. Notably, non-independent Directors do not receive remuneration from the company.

• Bios Available: Biographies of the Directors up for re-election are accessible in the Luxembourg prospectus on the company’s website.

Important Shareholder Information

• Voting Arrangements: Xtrackers uses the International Central Securities Depositary (ICSD) settlement model. Citivic Nominees Limited is the sole registered holder of shares in the sub-funds, acting as the Registered Shareholder. Proxy forms for voting at the AGM are available for download from the company’s website and must be returned to State Street Bank International GmbH, Luxembourg Branch, by courier, fax, or email before 6:00 p.m. (Luxembourg time) on 22 April 2026.
• Singapore Shareholders: Those holding shares via Central Depository (PTE) Limited (CDP) must submit voting instructions to CDP by 5.30 p.m. (Singapore time) on 13 April 2026 to indicate their preferences.
• Other Shareholders: Investors holding shares through brokers, dealers, or financial intermediaries should contact those entities for voting instructions, as direct rights may not be exercisable if shares are held in the intermediary’s name.
• No Quorum Required: The AGM does not require a minimum number of shareholders present. Resolutions are passed by a simple majority of those present or represented. Each share entitles the holder to one vote.
• Annual Report Access: The English version of the audited financial statements and reports will be available at the registered office and online from 27 March 2026, at least eight days before the AGM. Shareholders can request a free copy by email.

Potential Price-Sensitive Elements

• Dividend Policy: The confirmation that remaining net results will be carried forward after interim dividends may impact investor expectations regarding future dividend distributions.
• Director and Auditor Re-elections: Continuity or change in board leadership and audit oversight could signal stability or strategic shifts, potentially affecting investor sentiment.
• Remuneration Decisions: Approval of director remuneration, especially for the independent chairman, is based on Sub-Fund count. This could hint at the company’s structure and growth, which may be relevant for valuation considerations.
