Notification of Transaction by Director/PDMR and PCA
On 10 October 2025, the following awards ("VCP Awards") were granted under the Centaur Value Creation Plan (that was approved by shareholders at the 2025 AGM) to the following persons discharging managerial responsibilities:
Name of PDMR | Position | Share of Pool in relation to the VCP Award |
Martin Rowland | Chief Executive Officer | 81% |
Simon Longfield | Chief Financial Officer | 19% |
Each VCP Award is in the form of a cash-settled award with vesting conditional upon performance growth in total shareholder value and continued service. A VCP Award entitles the holder to a share of a 'Pool', the value of which will be based on a cash amount calculated as 6.5% of the growth in the 'Shareholder Value' (being the market capitalisation of the Company calculated by reference to the Company share price plus the total value of any returns to shareholders calculated on a basis consistent with market standard total shareholder return (TSR) methodology).
The total potential value of the Pool is subject to an overall cap of £2.46m.
Further details of the VCP Awards, including the key terms and calculation methodology, are provided in the 2024 Directors' Remuneration Report and the notice of the AGM of the Company that was held on Thursday 8 May 2025.
This notification is made in accordance with the requirements of the UK Market Abuse Regulation.
