The Company announces that on 11 February 2026 options were granted under the Group's Long Term Share Plan 2018 ("LTSP") to the Executive Directors. Options under the LTSP were granted as follows:
Director | Position | Options awarded under the LTSP | Grant date | Vesting date | Minimum holding period | Total options held, including SAYE options |
Hooman Caman Javvi | CEO | 88,110 | 11 February 2026 | 11 February 2029 | 2 years after vesting | 216,751 |
James Mills | CFO | 59,680 | 297,931 |
These options, with a 2 pence exercise price, can only be exercised in full if the Remuneration Committee is satisfied that in the financial year ending 30 November 2028 ("FY2028") the Group has achieved Adjusted EPS of at least 64.3 pence, which is a 15% compound annual growth rate from the Adjusted EPS in the year ended 30 November 2025. 20% of the award will vest if the Group has achieved Adjusted EPS of 47.6 pence in FY2028. A sliding scale will operate if Adjusted EPS are between 47.6 pence and 64.3 pence. No shares vest if the Adjusted EPS in FY2028 is below 47.6 pence.
After the vesting period, before the end of the two-year holding period, the option holder may exercise the option but may only sell sufficient shares to settle the option price and the income tax payable. The options may be exercised after the vesting period up until 11 February 2036. Claw-back and malus provisions apply.
Following these grants, the total number of LTSP and SAYE options in issue is 871,643, representing approximately 1.8% of the shares in issue.
