Notification of Transactions by Persons Discharging Managerial
Responsibilities ("PDMRs") and Persons Closely Associated with them

 

The Weir Group PLC (the "Company") hereby announces that the restricted share
awards over ordinary shares in the Company that were made in 2022 under The
Weir Group Share Reward Plan vested on 11 April 2025 and were subsequently
released to each of the PDMRs listed below on the 11(th) and 15(th) April,
together with additional shares in respect of dividend equivalent payments. A
portion of the shares acquired by each of the PDMRs was then sold
automatically to cover each PDMR's tax liability in respect of acquisition of
shares following the vesting of the share awards. The remaining vested shares
are subject to a further retention period of two years during which the PDMR
is not entitled to sell the shares or otherwise deal with them.
