Grant of new joiner incentive awards

and total voting rights

 

Alpha FMC (AIM: AFM), a leading global provider of specialist consultancy services to the Asset and Wealth Management industry announces that the Company has made a grant of staff incentive awards. 

On 13 January 2020, the Company granted 56,074 awards to recent new joiner employees by way of Employee Incentive Plan ("EIP") share options and RSU awards. Consistent with previous awards, these EIP awards (i) have a nominal or nil consideration, (ii) will vest after five years, (iii) have a 10 year term, and (iv) are subject to certain individual or Group performance conditions.

On 13 January 2020, the Company also bought back 48,481 Ordinary Shares from prior employees ("Reclaimed Shares") for nominal value. All of the Reclaimed Shares will be transferred to the Company's Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT") and used to satisfy future awards and vests. 

Following the EIP awards, the Company will have 6,515,574 outstanding MIP and EIP share options and JSOP Shares in total, representing approximately 6.29 per cent of the issued share capital of the Company.  Within this total, 5,981,293 MIP options and JSOP Share awards are outstanding. Total MIP options and JSOP Share awards outstanding represent approximately 5.79 per cent of the issued share capital of the Company, of which approximately 3.02 per cent has been awarded in the year ended 31 March 2020. There will be no voting rights attached to any Ordinary Shares whilst they are held in the EBT.

As set out in the AIM Admission Document, no more than 10 per cent of the total share capital of the Company from time to time shall be subject to unvested JSOP Shares, Options and RSUs that are granted under the MIP.

In accordance with the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules, following the above the Company has 103,607,638 Ordinary Shares in issue, of which none are held in Treasury. The total number of voting rights in the Company is 100,938,209.

The above figure of 100,938,209 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 FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
