The latest update is out from Rathbones Group PLC ( (GB:RAT) ).
Rathbones Group PLC reported that shareholders approved the majority of resolutions at its 55th annual general meeting, including the adoption of 2025 financial statements, the directors’ remuneration report, a 68p final dividend, all director elections and re-elections, and the reappointment and remuneration authority of Deloitte as auditors. Investors also backed general authority to allot ordinary shares and the ability to call general meetings on 14 days’ notice, while strongly supporting authority for market purchases of ordinary shares.
However, two key special resolutions to disapply pre-emption rights, including for issues linked to acquisitions or capital investment, failed to reach the required 75% supermajority despite simple-majority support. A notable 36.58% vote against the general authority to allot shares underscored shareholder concerns over potential dilution, prompting the board to commit to extensive engagement with investors in the coming weeks and to provide a formal update within six months in line with UK corporate governance guidelines.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:RAT) stock is a Sell with a £1850.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Rathbones Group PLC stock, see the GB:RAT Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on RAT Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, RAT is a Outperform.
The score is driven primarily by solid financial performance (improving profitability and low leverage) tempered by volatile cash-flow history. Earnings call factors are supportive due to synergy outperformance and clear margin improvement guidance, while technicals are mixed with near-term softness. Valuation is balanced: an attractive dividend yield offsets a mid-to-higher P/E.
