RNS Number : 5411H Costain Group PLC 06 April 2022
Costain Group PLC
6 April 2022
Grant of Share Plan Awards
Costain announces the following grants of share awards to Alex Vaughan, chief
executive officer, and Helen Willis, chief financial officer.
A. SHARE DEFERRAL PLAN AWARDS
On 6 April 2022, awards have been made under the Costain Group PLC 2014 Share
Deferral Plan (the "Share Deferral Plan") over ordinary shares of 50p each in
the Company in the form of options with a nil exercise price (the "SDP
Awards"). An SDP Award was granted to Alex Vaughan over 597,836 shares and
Helen Willis over 496,473 shares, each representing deferral into shares of
50% of their 2021 Annual Incentive Plan earned. No consideration was paid for
the grant of the Awards.
The SDP Awards will normally become exercisable two years after grant subject
to the Rules of the Share Deferral Plan. To the extent that all or any part of
the SDP Awards become exercisable, they will remain exercisable until the day
before the tenth anniversary of the date of grant provided the individual
remains an employee or officer of the Company.
Under the Company's Share Ownership Guidelines, shares subject to Share
Deferral Plan awards count towards these Guidelines, on a net of assumed tax
basis valued at the time of grant. Accordingly, the revised beneficial
holdings of the Executive Directors are as follows:
Name of Director/PDMR Total beneficial holding of Shares prior to the transactions above Total beneficial holding of Shares following the transactions above
Alex Vaughan 247,705 557,085
Helen Willis 0 256,924
B. LONG TERM INCENTIVE PLAN AWARDS
Also on 6 April 2022, awards have been made under the Costain Group PLC 2014
Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") over ordinary shares of 50p each in the
Company in the form of options with a nil exercise price (the "LTIP Awards").
An LTIP Award was granted to Alex Vaughan over 1,124,685 shares and to Helen
Willis over 934,005 shares, each representing 100% of salary. No consideration
was paid for the grant of the Awards.
The Awards will normally vest three years after grant, subject to the
satisfaction of performance conditions, but will not normally be released (so
that they can be exercised) until the fifth anniversary of the date of grant
(with no further performance conditions required after vesting).
The vesting of the Awards is subject to the satisfaction of performance
conditions assessed over the three financial years ending 31 December 2024.
The Company's 2021 Directors' Remuneration Report included proposed
performance conditions which have now been finalised by the Remuneration
Committee of the Company and are unchanged as follows:
(a) a three year aggregate EPS target (relating to two thirds of
the Awards) of 27.5p (for 15% vesting) and 33.7p (for 100% vesting), with
vesting on a straight-line basis between the two; and
(b) a three year average cash conversion target (relating to one
third of the Awards) of 80% (for 15% vesting) and 100% (for 100% vesting),
with vesting on a straight-line basis between the two.
The Remuneration Committee may reduce the extent to which the LTIP Awards vest
if the Committee considers that any of the value at vesting represents a
"windfall gain", taking into account such factors as the Committee determines.
The Notification of Dealing Forms for both the Share Deferral Plan and the
LTIP, set out further below, are provided in accordance with the requirements
of the Market Abuse Regulation.
