RNS Number : 7071E  Genus PLC  18 September 2024

18 September 2024

 

Genus plc

 

Director/PDMR Shareholding

 

Genus plc (LSE: GNS) announces that, further to the vesting on 15 September
2024 of conditional nil-cost options granted in 2021 under the Genus 2019
Performance Share Plan (the 'PSP'), as listed in table A below; and
conditional nil-cost options granted in 2021 under the Genus Deferred Share
Bonus Plan (the 'DSBP') as listed in table B below, members of the Genus
Executive Leadership Team ('GELT') sold ordinary shares in Genus on 16
September 2024 on the London Stock Exchange, to offset income tax and social
security liabilities due on the exercises and retained the balance of ordinary
shares.

 

Conditional nil-cost options granted under the PSP were subject to relevant
performance conditions, measured over a three-year performance period which
commenced on 1 July 2021 and ended on 30 June 2024. Following assessment of
the performance conditions, the Remuneration Committee determined that  the
awards would vest at 50% of the original grant and the balance of awards have
lapsed.

 

Genus also announces that, further to the vesting on 15 September 2024 of
conditional share awards granted in 2021 and 2022 under the PSP, as listed in
table C below, Matt Culbertson, a member of GELT sold ordinary shares in Genus
on 16 September 2024 on the London Stock Exchange, to offset income tax and
social security liabilities due on the releases and retained the balance of
ordinary shares. Conditional share awards were granted to Matt Culbertson
under the PSP prior to him becoming a member of GELT.  These conditional
share awards were not subject to company performance conditions.

 

The below notifications, made in accordance with Article 19 of the Market
Abuse Regulation (EU) 596/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of
the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, give further detail on the number of
nil-cost options exercised, conditional share awards released, and ordinary
shares sold on 16 September 2024.
