FILED ITS ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 20-F WITH THE SEC
SANTERAMO IN COLLE, Bari, Italy--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 30,
2019--Natuzzi S.p.A. (NYSE: NTZ) (the “Company”) announced today that it
held its annual general shareholders’ meeting on April 29, 2019 (the
“Annual General Meeting”), at which it approved the Company’s financial
statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and acknowledged
the presentation of the 2018 consolidated financial statements of the
Natuzzi Group.
At the Annual General Meeting, the shareholders appointed the following
individuals to the board of statutory auditors for a three-year term:
Mr. Giuseppe Pio Macario as chairman of the board, Mr. Francesco
Campobasso and Mr. Andrea Venturelli as members of the board, and Mr.
Aurelio Franco Colasanto and Mr. Vito Passalacqua as alternates.
In addition, at the Annual General Meeting the shareholders appointed
KPMG as the Company’s principal independent registered public auditor
for fiscal years 2019, 2020 and 2021.
Item 5 of the agenda at the Annual General Meeting contemplated an
ADR/share buyback program, proposed by the Company’s Board of Directors,
which would have created a share-based incentive plan reserved for
certain employees and directors of the Natuzzi Group. The Company’s
shareholders, while appreciating the proposal, suggested instead
considering other tools that can be implemented more easily. As a
result, the planned Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting, which had only
one item on the agenda—
Capital increase to fund a share-based
incentive plan reserved for certain employees and directors of the
Company and other companies within the Natuzzi Group
—was not held.
The Company also announced that today it filed its annual report on Form
20-F (the “Form 20-F”) for the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2018
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Form 20-F is available
on the Company’s website
www.natuzzi.com
within the
Investor Relations page (
http://natuzzigroup.com/en-EN/ir/investors.html
)
under the “SEC Filings” section.
The Company's shareholders can request a hard copy of the Form 20-F,
which includes the audited consolidated financial statements, free of
charge by contacting the Company at
