1.         LTIP Cycle 18 Awards - ESG measure

 

As reported in the 2024 Annual Report and Accounts, the Remuneration Committee
(the "Committee") was in the process of reviewing the approach to the ESG
measure for the awards to be granted under the Ricardo plc 2020 Long Term
Incentive Plan at the time of publication. The ESG measure and target for the
LTIP cycle 18 awards granted on 28 October 2024 have now been determined. This
measure, which will be used to determine whether 10% of each LTIP Award will
vest (the "ESG Portion"), is based on the Company's absolute total validated
CO2e emissions (Scopes 1+2+3). The shares will vest in full where Ricardo's
validated carbon dioxide emissions are equal to or lower than 110,000 metric
tons by the conclusion of the year ending 30 June 2027.

 

The Committee will keep the operation of the above ESG measure under review
and may make adjustments to ensure that this remains appropriate.

 

Full details will be included in the Annual Report and Accounts for the year
ending 30 June 2025.
