Press Article: Recon Technology to Discuss Performance at Upcoming AGM Amidst Shareholder Concerns
Recon Technology, Ltd. (NASDAQ: RCON) is set to hold its Annual General Meeting (AGM) on May 15, where shareholders will have the opportunity to question the board on the company’s disappointing performance and future strategies. CEO Shenping Yin’s total compensation for the year amounts to CN¥14 million, which is a 14% decrease from the previous year and aligns with industry averages for companies of similar size.
However, this compensation comes under scrutiny given that Recon Technology has faced a dramatic 92% drop in earnings per share and an 88% loss for shareholders over the past three years. The company’s revenue also fell by 1.7% last year, raising concerns over the justification for such compensation in light of these results.
Yin’s salary of CN¥4.36 million constitutes 31% of total pay, which is significantly higher than the industry’s median, where salaries typically represent about 14% of total compensation. Notably, Yin holds shares worth US$18 million in the company, indicating a vested interest.
The AGM presents a crucial platform for shareholders to voice their concerns regarding executive pay amidst ongoing financial setbacks. Investors are advised to be aware of four warning signs related to the company’s performance before making investment decisions.
With the significant losses and underwhelming future growth predictions, many investors may oppose any potential pay raises for the CEO. As the company navigates these challenges, many will be watching closely to see if the board proposes actionable strategies to improve performance.
