EBT Share Dealings and Total Voting Rights
Eckoh plc (AIM:ECK), the global provider of secure payment products and
customer contact solutions, today announces that, on 15 June 2022, Eckoh's
employee benefit trust ("EBT"), purchased 165,932 Ordinary Shares in the
capital of the Company (the "Shares") at a price of approximately 40.6401
pence per Share, to be held on trust for the purpose of satisfying future
awards to beneficiaries of the Company's share incentive plan (the
"Purchase").
As Nik Philpot (CEO) and Chrissie Herbert (CFO) are trustees and
administrators of the EBT, they are therefore treated as having an interest in
the Shares.
Following settlement of the above purchase of Shares for the EBT, it will hold
a total of 2,123,391 Shares, equivalent to 0.73 per cent. of the Ordinary
Share capital of Eckoh.
Total Voting Rights
The Company continues to have a total of 292,869,261 Ordinary Shares in issue.
Pursuant to the Purchase, the number of Ordinary Shares held in treasury is
1,943,311 and, as a result, the Ordinary Shares in issue carrying voting
rights will be 290,966,103. Shareholders may use this figure of 290,966,103
Ordinary Shares 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, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure
Guidance and Transparency Rules.
