AGL Energy’s board is expected to issue a formal statement on its proposed demerger before the market opens on Monday. There is growing speculation that AGL is set to abandon the demerger and will consider alternative options, amid pressure from major shareholder Mike Cannon-Brookes. The future of CEO Graeme Hunt and chairman Peter Botten is also uncertain, and they were both said to be considering their positions on Sunday. Cannon-Brookes’ private company Grok Ventures intends to seek two seats on AGL’s board if the demerger does not proceed.
