RNS Number : 0442G Ramsdens Holdings PLC 24 April 2025
24 April 2025
Ramsdens Holdings PLC
("Ramsdens", the Group, or the "Company")
Director/PDMR Shareholding
Ramsdens, the diversified financial services provider and retailer, announces
that on 24 April 2025, the Company adopted its Long‐Term Incentive Plan 8
(the "Plan"). The Plan follows the principles of the Group's existing LTIPs,
in recognising the contribution of the management team for the three years to
FY27. The intention to grant the potential conditional awards was disclosed in
Ramsdens' 2024 Annual Report and Accounts, published on 14 January 2025.
In accordance with the Group's remuneration strategy, the Plan extends to five
members of the Senior Management Team, including CEO Peter Kenyon and CFO
Martin Clyburn (the "Executive Directors"). The award grants options over 1p
Ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company (the "Shares"), with vested
awards under the Plan exercisable at 1 pence per share.
The Executive Directors have been granted a total of 180,000 LTIP shares, to
vest in 2027 in accordance with the Plan rules and subject to the achievement
of performance targets, with 50% of any award linked to targeted increases in
the Earnings per Share of the Company, and the remaining 50% of any award
based on the delivery of the Total Shareholder Return. These targets will be
measured over the three financial years to 30 September 2027.
These grants represent the maximum possible share awards to the Executive
Directors should the performance targets be achieved in full. The Plan rules
include malus and clawback provisions.
A further 110,000 LTIP shares have been issued pursuant to the Plan to three
members of the Senior Management Team, including Michael Johnson (Operations
Director), Jason Carr (IT Director) and Mark Smith (Finance Director) with the
same performance criteria and rules.
