According to the published announcement, the agenda includes three items: termination of the powers of Acting Chairman of the Board and Director Yuriy Kovalsky; election of Konstantin Shabunyaev as the new Acting Chairman of the Board and Director effective May 19, 2026; and approval of the terms of his contract, the amount of his remuneration, and the designation of the person who will sign the contract on behalf of the company. The decision to convene remote extraordinary meetings was made by the State Property Fund of Ukraine as a shareholder of the company.

In June 2018, the State Property Fund again decided to privatize the state’s stake in the Odessa Port Plant, and in 2025 put 99.5667% of the shares up for auction with a starting price of 4.489 billion UAH; however, the auction scheduled for November 25 did not take place due to a lack of registered participants. In late March 2026, the Ministry of Economy stated that OPZ remains a key target for large-scale privatization and may be put up for sale again after the terms are adjusted.
