RNS Number : 5946Q  River Global PLC  27 January 2026

27 January 2026

 

LEI: 213800LFMHKVNTZ7GV45

 

River Global PLC ("River Global" or the "Company")

 

NOTIFICATION OF RESTRICTED SHARE ISSUE AND INTERESTS OF PERSONS DISCHARGING
MANAGERIAL RESPONSIBILITIES ("PDMR")

 

CONFIRMATION OF TOTAL CAPITAL IN ISSUE

 

The Board of River Global PLC is pleased to confirm that in December last year
it awarded rights over up to 14,431,309 A Ordinary Shares of 0.5p each ("A
Ordinary Shares") in the Company (which would represent approximately 8.24 per
cent of the voting A Ordinary Share capital of the Company on issue) which it
expects to satisfy mainly by issuing new shares as required at vesting.
Vesting of shares under the Scheme is due between 1 April and 1 November 2028
and is subject to usual provisions for malus, clawback and for apportionment
or forfeiture in respect of good and bad leavers prior to that date at the
discretion of the Board's Remuneration Committee.

4,595,588 of such Shares have been awarded to Gary Marshall, the Group's Chief
Finance and Operating Officer.  Formal notification in respect of the award
to Mr Marshall, being a PDMR, is set out below in accordance with the
requirements of the Market Abuse Regulation.

The above percentages are based on updated shares in issue figures following
the correction of an error in previous declarations announced by the Company
on 13 August 2025 and 2 October 2025 where the number of shares held in
treasury was understated by 2,420 A Ordinary Shares and 2,420 B Shares. Of a
total of 165,962,970 A Ordinary Shares and 149,292,970 B Shares in issue, the
Company holds 5,354,770 A Ordinary Shares and 5,354,770 B shares in treasury.
As a result, the current voting shares in issue, and the figures which may be
used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculation by
which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or
a change in their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance
and Transparency Rules, are 160,608,200 A Ordinary Shares and 143,938,200 B
Shares. These figures correct the error of 2,420 in the number of A Ordinary
Shares and B Shares held in treasury.
