Marlowe plc 

("Marlowe" or the "Group")

 

Director/PDMR Shareholding

 

On 19 March 2021 Marlowe was pleased to confirm the results of a significantly oversubscribed placing of new ordinary shares in the Group ("Ordinary Shares") to raise gross proceeds of £100 million (the "Placing").

 

As previously announced, the net proceeds of the Placing will provide the Group with significant additional resources with which to capitalise on acquisition opportunities in the short to medium term in line with its well-defined acquisition-led growth strategy.

 

The Group announces that it has been notified that Alex Dacre, the Group's Chief Executive Officer, and Charles Skinner, a Non-Executive Director of the Group, have today agreed, in light of additional institutional demand and following the crystallisation of personal tax liabilities that have arisen following the redemption in full of the 2016 Marlowe Incentive Scheme, details of which were announced by Marlowe on 5 February 2021 ("2021 Redemption"), to dispose of an aggregate of 740,000 existing Ordinary Shares between them at a price of 690 pence per Ordinary Share.

 

Messrs. Dacre and Skinner are therefore now beneficially interested in 4,654,352 Ordinary Shares (representing c.6.0 per cent. of the Group's issued share capital) and 505,084 Ordinary Shares (representing c.0.7 per cent. of the Group's issued share capital) respectively and have confirmed to the Group that they have no current intention of disposing of any further Ordinary Shares.
