RNS Number : 3014H  Headlam Group PLC  18 March 2024

18 March 2024

 

Headlam Group plc

(the 'Company')

Grant of awards under Deferred Bonus Plan & Performance Share Plan

 

Performance Share Plan awards

On 18 March 2024, the Company granted awards in the form of nil-cost options
over a total of 935,334 ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the Company under
the Company's Performance Share Plan, (the 'PSP'), including 660,635 to the
following Executive Directors:

 

 Executive Director / PDMR   Role                     Number of ordinary shares over which PSP awards granted

                                                      395,402

 Chris Payne                 Chief Executive

 Adam Phillips               Chief Financial Officer  265,233

 

As detailed in the 2023 Annual Report and Accounts published on 18 March,
vesting of the PSP awards is dependent on continued employment and the
achievement of performance conditions against the following measures:

-     compound growth in Earnings Per Share (70%);

-     relative Total Shareholder Return performance measured against the
constituents of the FTSE SmallCap Index (excluding investment trusts) (20%);
and

-     reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (10%).

 

The performance conditions will be measured over a three-year performance
period.

In addition, the awards are further subject to an underpin performance
condition that the extent of vesting reflects the overall financial
performance of the Company over the three-year performance period.  When
making this determination the Company's Remuneration Committee will have full
discretion to ensure that the final outcome is warranted based on the
performance of the Company in light of all relevant factors to ensure there
have been no windfalls gains.

PSP awards granted to Executive Directors are additionally subject to a
two-year holding period following the date of vesting during which a dividend
equivalent will accrue in the form of additional shares to the extent the
awards vest, as calculated on a re-investment basis.

The number of ordinary shares over which the awards were granted was
calculated on a share price of 183.80 pence per ordinary share, being the
average mid-market closing share price for the five business days prior to the
grant date, as derived from the London Stock Exchange daily official list.
The awards are subject to the malus and clawback provisions of the PSP.

Deferred Bonus Plan ('DBP') awards

As detailed in the Directors' Remuneration Report on page 116 of the 2023
Annual Report and Accounts, rather than defer one-third of the bonus outcome
into an award over shares, the Remuneration Committee has decided to defer
100% of the Executive Director's 2023 bonus outcome into an award under the
DBP.

On 18 March 2024, the Company granted nil-cost options under the DBP to the
following Executive Directors:

 Executive Director / PDMR   Role                     Amount of Bonus Deferred (£)    Number of ordinary shares over which DBP awards granted

                                                                                      64,608

 Chris Payne                 Chief Executive          118,750

 Adam Phillips               Chief Financial Officer  54,375*                         29,583

 

* Pro-rated as Adam Phillips to reflect that he joined the Company on 20 March
2023.

The 2024 DBP awards will not vest until the second anniversary of the grant
date, and are subject to a dividend equivalent in the form of shares,
calculated on a re-investment basis.  The number of ordinary shares over
which the awards were granted was calculated based on a share price of 183.80
pence per ordinary share, being the average mid-market closing share price for
the five business days prior to the grant date, as derived from the London
Stock Exchange daily official list.
