RNS Number : 8315N Vanquis Banking Group PLC 09 May 2024
Vanquis Banking Group plc ("the Company")
Director/PDMR Transaction - Initial Notification
The Company announces that it has granted the following awards on 7 May 2024
over the Company's ordinary shares of 20 8/11p ("Shares") as follows:
1. nil-cost options over 847,599 and 643,006 Shares for no consideration
to Ian McLaughlin and David Watts respectively, who are directors/persons
discharging managerial responsibility ("PDMRs") in the Company, under the 2020
Restricted Share Plan (the "RSP Options").
The number of ordinary shares awarded under the RSP Options is based on the
average closing share price on the London Stock Exchange between 29 April 2024
and 3 May 2024 of £0.4790. The number of shares granted reflects a downwards
adjustment to the grant value of the awards of 44%. In making this downwards
adjustment, the Remuneration Committee considered its internal Policy to take
into account the potential windfall gain and share dilution. A further
assessment will be made at the point of vest as part of the RSP performance
underpin. There has been no additional discount from the price at grant to
reflect the absence of dividend equivalents during the vesting period and no
market value options linked to the RSP Options have been granted under the
2020 Restricted Share Plan (CSOP Options).
