Augean plc ("Augean" or the "Company")
Exercise of options, PDMR dealing and total voting rights
Augean, one of the UK's leading specialist waste management businesses, announces that on 21 October 2020, Gene Wilson, the Corporate Stewardship Director, exercised 55,172 options over ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), which he was awarded on 18 May 2011 under the Company's Unauthorised Share Option Scheme adopted on 13 December 2004 (the "Scheme"). It is noted that this exercise has been executed due to the nearing of the ten-year deadline for exercising under this Scheme. The Company therefore issued and allotted 55,172 new Ordinary Shares, all of which were sold by Mr Wilson on 21 October 2020.
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for 55,172 Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that Admission will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 27 October 2020.
Following Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue will be 104,560,914 and the total number of voting rights will therefore be 104,560,914. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
The notifications below, made in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation, provide further detail.
