Churchill China plc (AIM: CHH), the manufacturer of innovative performance
ceramic products serving hospitality markets worldwide, announces that on 20
May 2026, the following options over 10p Ordinary shares in the Company
("Ordinary Shares") were granted to persons discharging managerial
responsibilities ("PDMR's") under the Churchill China Long Term Incentive Plan
("CCLTIP") (the "Grants"):

In addition, 116,210 Grants were made to employees who are non-PDMRs.
The Grants for the 3 executive directors, David O'Connor, James Roper and
Michael Cunningham are subject to the achievement of performance criteria as
specified by the Remuneration Committee and are subject to claw back
provisions in certain circumstances. The performance conditions require that
the Company's adjusted (pre-exceptional items and adjusted for pension
interest charges and credits) earnings per share ("Adjusted EPS") for the
financial year ending 31 December 2028 reaches the threshold with straight
line vesting up to the maximum. For this metric 60% of the available options
will vest:
Adjusted EPS for year ending 31 December 2028 % of Grant that Vests
42.4 25%
51.4 100%
A further 20% of the grant will vest on achieving targets on Return on Capital
Employed, again these will vest on a straight line basis from threshold to
maximum, with no vesting below the threshold level.
Average ROCE in 2028 % of Grant that Vests
9.3% 25%
11.3% 100%
Finally 20% of the grant will vest on achieving targets relating to free cash
flow (FCF), threshold will be that FCF exceeds Operating profit over the 3
year period whilst the maximum will be achieved if FCF is 5% over operating
profit. Again this will vest on a straight line basis.
Shares will vest subject to the achievement of these performance conditions,
from 20 May 2029.
