Grant of Options and Director/PDMR Dealings
SysGroup plc (AIM:SYS), the trusted partner for cloud, cybersecurity, and AI enablement, delivering end to end solutions at the intersection of cybersecurity and digital transformation for the UK mid-market, today announces that on 2 September 2025 the Remuneration Committee of the Board of Directors made share awards over 1,377,910 ordinary shares of £0.01 each under the SysGroup plc Performance Share Plan ("PSP") to the Executive Directors and a person discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMRs").
In determining the level of awards, the Remuneration Committee carefully considered the prevailing share price. To ensure fairness and alignment with shareholder interests, the proportion of the awards were reduced to reflect the current market value.
The PDMRs are all participants in the SysGroup plc Value Creation Plan ("VCP"), which was approved by shareholders on 26 June 2024. Pursuant to the PSP scheme rules, these awards will not be exercisable until after 26 June 2029, which is the measurement date of the VCP. If the VCP awards vest, any PSP awards that have also vested will be offset, ensuring that participants benefit from only one of the Plans.
