LONDON (Alliance News) - Epistem Holdings PLC said members of its board acquired shares at a price of 80 pence per share as part of a share placing on Tuesday.
Chief Financial Officer John Rylands acquired 162,500 shares and Chairman Ian Gilham and Chief Executive Officer David Budd each acquired 31,250 shares.
In addition non-executive directors Allan Brown and Roger Lloyd acquired 31,250 and 12,500 shares respectively.
