Director Shareholding

Issue of Shares

 

StatPro Group plc (AIM: SOG), the AIM listed provider of portfolio analytics and data solutions for the global asset management industry, announces the issue of 30,000 shares yesterday following the exercise of share options at 60p per share under the Company's share option scheme by Carl Bacon, Chairman.

 

Also, following the receipt by the Company of an application from Carl Bacon relating to the exercise of options over 150,000 shares at an exercise price of 60p under the Company share option scheme, the Company has opted to net settle by cash settlement in order to reduce the impact of dilution. The net settlement value was determined by the Board as 128.5 pence per ordinary share. As a result, cash amounting to a total of approximately £103,000 including option tax liability will be payable.

 

The Company also announces that it received notification on 21 April 2010 that, on the same day, Carl Bacon, transferred 110,000 ordinary shares of 1p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") from his holdings to his spouse's holdings.

 

Following this exercise and the transfer noted above, Carl Bacon is interested in 750,000 ordinary shares representing approximately 1.23% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital.

 

In 2010 to date, applications relating to the exercise of options over 428,730 shares have been settled on a net basis. As a result, cash amounting to a total of approximately £276,000 including option tax liability has been paid or will be payable.

 

Application will be made to issue a total of 30,000 ordinary shares of 1p each. It is expected that dealings will commence on 28 April 2010. These shares will rank pari passu with the Group's existing issued ordinary shares.

 

Following Admission, the Company's enlarged issued share capital will comprise 60,729,357 ordinary shares with voting rights. The Company does not currently hold any shares in treasury. This figure of 60,729,357 ordinary shares may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FSA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
