Grant of Options under SAYE Scheme

 

Motorpoint Group plc, the UK's leading independent omnichannel vehicle retailer, is pleased to announce that it launched its 2026 Save As You Earn ("SAYE") share scheme for all its permanent employees on 18 December 2025.  The SAYE scheme is approved by HM Revenue and Customs.

 

Eligible employees were invited to subscribe for options over the Company's Ordinary Shares of 1 pence each ("Shares") at an exercise price of 125.70 pence, representing a 10% discount to the average closing middle market price of the Shares over the three day period ending on 27 November 2025 ("Options"), the dealing day before the invitation to participate was made.  The exercise price was calculated in accordance with the rules of the SAYE scheme. The Options have a contract start date of 1 February 2026 and are exercisable between 1 February 2029 and 31 July 2029.

 

A total of 285 employees (including two persons discharging managerial responsibility ("PDMRs")) elected to participate in the SAYE scheme.  Pursuant to these elections, a total of 879,552 Shares under Option were granted on 18 December 2025, equating to 1.05% of the current issued share capital.

 

Mark Carpenter, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Chris Morgan, Chief Financial Officer, both PDMRs, elected to participate in the SAYE scheme and are included in the total figures above. Pursuant to the 2026 SAYE scheme, they each have 4,355 Shares under Option.

 

The notifications at the end of the announcement, made in accordance with the requirements of the UK Market Abuse Regulation, provide further detail of the Options granted.
