About the AGM Calculators

• Lexata’s AGM calculators show deadlines under corporate and securities laws relating to public companies’ shareholder meetings.

• Each deadline is accompanied by links to the relevant rules.

If you would like Lexata to create a custom calculator for your 2023 AGM, please contact us.

Assumptions Underlying the Calculators

• There is no proxy contest or dissident information circular.
• The company is an “offering corporation” (for the OBCA calculator) or a “distributing corporation” (for the CBCA calculator). In other words, the calculators are for public companies.
• The record date for voting at the meeting is the same as the record date for notice of the meeting.
• There is no adjournment of the AGM.
• The company has completed at least one full fiscal year post-IPO.

Future versions of the AGM calculators will accommodate a greater variety of factual scenarios, i.e., companies incorporated in other provinces/territories; banks and insurance companies under the Bank Act or Insurance Companies Act; companies conducting their first AGM post-IPO; and including the delivery requirements for financial statements and MD&A.
