UnifiedPost Group has responded negatively to major shareholder Marc Coucke’s proposal to dismiss the chairman and appoint four new directors. Coucke, who controls more than 17 percent of UnifiedPost through his holding company Alychlo, believes the company has underperformed in recent years, leading to a decline in the stock price. He has suggested the appointment of four new directors and the resignation of the chairman.
UnifiedPost’s board of directors has already advised against voting on Coucke’s proposal, citing concerns about the independence of certain proposed directors. Shareholders will have the opportunity to vote on May 21, but it remains to be seen if Coucke’s changes will be approved.
Exclusive negotiations are also underway for the sale of 21Grams, a company with 89 employees that operates in Sweden, Denmark, and Norway and generated 83.2 million euros in revenue last year. The outcome of this sale could have a significant impact on UnifiedPost’s future direction and success in the electronic invoicing industry.
The situation at UnifiedPost has caused a stir in the business world, with experts and commentators weighing in on the potential implications of this shareholder dispute. Some are questioning the motives behind Coucke’s proposed changes and whether they will truly benefit the company in the long run. Others are hopeful that positive changes will come from
