An AGM is just a snapshot performed at a particular time of year with no guarantees of providing anything more than what has taken place up to that point including "business as usual" functions mandated by law. Assumptions to the opposite do not bear fruit if you look at the AGMs of the past of any number of companies. Material news could happen before, during or after an AGM and irrespective of an AGM. People do tend to wax romantic about such things.
