RNS Number : 6272O  Niox Group PLC  26 June 2025

NIOX Group plc

("NIOX" or the "Company")

 

Director/PDMR Shareholding

 

26 June 2025

 

NIOX Group plc (AIM: NIOX) announces it has issued 144,844 new ordinary shares
in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to Ian Johnson, Non-Executive Chairman,
under the Company's Deferred Share Bonus Plan (the "Plan").

 

The share issue was made in respect of the annual bonus for the 2023 financial
year, which was granted on 20 March 2024 when he was employed as Executive
Chairman. Under the terms of the Company's remuneration policy, 25% of this
bonus was paid in shares at that time with the remaining 75% of this bonus
deferred for two years, other than for the sale of shares to satisfy any tax
liability created on grant. On Ian's transition to Non-Executive Chairman, the
two-year deferral period was waived. The allotment of these previously
deferred shares took place yesterday.

 

The 144,844 new Ordinary Shares issued in connection with this award are
subject to an existing block admission for the respective Plan and rank pari
passu with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares.

 

Following this allotment, Ian Johnson's interest in the Company is as follows:

 

              Number of Ordinary Shares issued  Resulting number of Ordinary Shares held  Resulting interest in the Company
 Ian Johnson  144,844                           4,623,180                                 1.11%

 

Total voting rights

Since the last total voting rights disclosure, certain employees exercised
options over a total of 189,502 Ordinary Shares of 0.08p ("Ordinary Shares")
under the Company's share option schemes.

 

Following the above, the Company's issued share capital comprises 417,751,925
Ordinary Shares, each carrying one voting right. This number 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 to
their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency
Rules.

 

Additional details are provided below in accordance with the requirements of
UK MAR.
