*The number of shares released includes additional shares calculated to
reflect dividends declared during the period from grant until vesting, in
accordance with the LTIP rules.
The 2022 LTIP award made under the 2021 Remuneration Policy included a stretch
award comparative element to Return on Regulatory Equity ('RoRE'), measured by
Upper Quartile ('UQ') comparison against other Water and Sewerage Companies
('WaSCs'). As all WaSCs have now published their Annual Performance Reports,
it has been determined that Severn Trent's three-year average RoRE during the
performance period was UQ, meaning awards vested in full at 100%.
The Company wishes to announce in accordance with DTR 3.1 and Article 19 of
the UK Market Abuse Regulation the following notifications by persons
discharging managerial responsibility.
