RNS Number : 2016Q Braemar PLC 16 February 2023
16 February 2023
BRAEMAR PLC
("Braemar", the "Company" or the "Group")
Grant of Share Incentives to PDMRs
Braemar Plc (LSE: BMS), a leading international shipbroker and provider of
expert investment, chartering, and risk management advice to the shipping and
energy markets, announces that the following grants of nil-cost options were
made under the Braemar Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") over the
Company's ordinary shares of 10p to the following PDMRs on 16 February 2023:
PDMR Number of nil-cost options over ordinary shares
James Gundy - Group Chief Executive Officer 164,360
Tris Simmonds - Group Chief Operations Officer 259,516
Alistair Borthwick - Group Finance Director 28,547
Sebastian Davenport-Thomas - Global Head of Sale & Purchase, Shipbroking 78,326
Division
In all cases, there was no consideration for the grant of the awards and the
exercise price is nil. The awards will vest in three years' time subject to
the rules of the LTIP and the performance criteria being satisfied. The
performance criteria are based on the Company's growth in Earnings Per Share
("EPS") measured over a three-year performance period ending on 28 February
2025. The EPS measure will be adjusted to eliminate 50% of the impact of
changes in the USD foreign exchange rate over the three-year period.
In addition, the Company granted the following awards over ordinary shares of
10p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") under the Company's Deferred Bonus
Plan (the "DBP") on 16 February 2023 to the following PDMRs in relation to
the individuals' annual bonuses in respect of the 2022/23 financial year:
PDMR Number of ordinary shares of 10p each over which awards were granted
James Gundy - Group Chief Executive Officer 66,484
Tris Simmonds - Group Chief Operations Officer 14,505
Nick Stone - Group Chief Financial Officer 1,537
Alistair Borthwick - Group Finance Director 40,955
Sebastian Davenport-Thomas - Global Head of Sale & Purchase, Shipbroking 13,651
Division
In all cases, there was no consideration for the grant of the DBP awards,
which will vest on 30 June 2025.
Tris Simmonds, Alistair Borthwick and Sebastian Davenport-Thomas have also
been given corresponding options under the Company Share Option Plan
("CSOP") over 3,412 Ordinary Shares each, which will vest on the same date as
the DBP awards above. The exercise price of the CSOP options is £3.175, which
is the middle market quotation of the Ordinary Shares on 15 February 2023. The
number of shares in respect of which the DBP award will vest will be reduced
to take account of any gain in value, as at exercise, of the CSOP options.
The notifications set out below are provided in accordance with the
requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation, which is part of UK law by
virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.
Further information on the LTIP, DBP and CSOP is contained in the Company's
2022 Annual Report.
