RNS Number : 8992Z Futura Medical PLC 17 January 2024
Futura Medical plc
("Futura" or the "Company")
Remuneration of Non-Executive Directors and Total Voting Rights
17 January 2024
Futura Medical plc (AIM: FUM) (the "Company"), the pharmaceutical company
developing innovative sexual health products, announces the issue of 43,500
new ordinary shares of 0.2 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") in respect of the
2023 remuneration of its Non-Executive Directors.
Remuneration of Non-Executive Directors
In accordance with the terms of their service agreements, the Non-Executive
Directors receive 25 per cent of their remuneration in the form of Ordinary
Shares which are usually in January following the period end. For 2023,
these were issued at 51.50 pence per share, being the average closing
mid-market price of the last 10 trading days of 2022 (as announced via RNS on
12 January 2023).
The 43,500 new Ordinary Shares shall rank pari passu with the existing issued
Ordinary Shares of the Company and have been issued to the following
Non-Executive Directors:
Director Number of Ordinary Shares issued for 2023 remuneration Total number of ordinary shares held Percentage of the Company's resulting issued share capital
Jeff Needham 11,617 27,961 0.01%
Andrew Unitt 11,970 38,496 0.01%
In addition, 19,913 shares have been issued to John Clarke. John Clarke was
a Non-Executive Director until July 2023 and these shares represent 25 per
cent of his pro-rata remuneration for the period January to July 2023 in
accordance with his service agreement.
The shares element of the Non-Executive Directors' remuneration for 2024 will
be awarded at 27.10 pence per Ordinary Share, being the average closing
mid-market price of the last 10 trading days of 2023. The Non-Executive
Directors will receive these shares in January 2025.
Total Voting Rights
Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange and it is anticipated
that trading of the new Ordinary Shares will commence on AIM at 8:00am on 22
January 2024.
Immediately following the above issue, the Company will have 301,449,451
ordinary shares in issue, each carrying one voting right. Since the Company
currently holds no shares in treasury, the total number of voting rights in
the Company is therefore 301,449,541 and this figure 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 in
their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure
Guidance and Transparency Rules.
Further details are contained within the notifications below, made in
accordance with Article 19 of the EU Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014. Full
details of the Non-Executive Directors' remuneration will be included in the
Company's Annual Report & Accounts.
