Exercise of options and additional purchase of shares by Director

 

SigmaRoc, a leading European lime and minerals group, announces that on 14 May 2025 it received notification from Tim Hall, Non-Executive Director, that he has exercised 750,000 options under the Company's 2016 Share Option Plan, (the "Options"), at an exercise price of 46 pence per share.

 

All options were exercised on a cashless basis and the tax liabilities deducted, with the net balance of 226,834 Ordinary Shares from the exercise being transferred to Mr Hall from the SigmaRoc Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT").

 

In addition, Mr Hall also today purchased 80,884 Ordinary shares of 1 pence each at a price of 103.25 pence per share.

 

Following the options exercise and share purchase, Mr Hall's total interest in the Company is 750,000 Ordinary Shares, representing 0.067% of the total issued share capital of the Company.

 

 

Total Voting Rights

 

The Option exercise has been satisfied through the allocation of existing ordinary shares held by the SigmaRoc EBT and, as such, no new ordinary shares have been issued in connection with the Option exercise.  Therefore, the total number of ordinary shares with voting rights in the Company following admission will remain 1,114,854,530. This figure 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 Group under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
