Director/PDMR Shareholdings and Issue of Equity

 

Bioventix plc (BVXP), a UK company specialising in the development and
commercial supply of high-affinity monoclonal antibodies for applications in
clinical diagnostics, was notified on 18 May 2023 of the following
transactions in its ordinary shares of 5 pence each ("Ordinary Shares"):

 

 Director       Role                    Options over Ordinary Shares exercised  Ordinary Shares sold  Average sale price per Ordinary Share  Ordinary Shares subsequently held  Percentage of issued share capital subsequently held
 Ian Nicholson  Non-Executive Chairman  1,638                                   1,638                 3,651.53                               13,000                             0.2%

 

The options over Ordinary Shares ("Options") were exercised at a price of 1350
pence per Ordinary Share pursuant to the Company's 2013 EMI Share Option
Scheme, details of which can be found at www.bioventix.com
(http://www.bioventix.com) . In addition, a current employee exercised 2,333
Options.

 

Issue of Equity

 

The Company has applied for 3,971 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to
trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will occur and
that dealings will commence in the new Ordinary Shares on 25 May 2023. The new
Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares.

 

The total number of Ordinary Shares in issue following Admission will be
5,219,656 and the Company holds no shares in treasury. Therefore, the total
number of Ordinary Shares with voting rights in the Company will be 5,219,656.

 

The above figure of 5,219,656 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, Bioventix under
the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
