XP Factory plc (AIM: XPF)
("XP Factory" or the "Company")
Director/PDMR Shareholding - The XP Factory plc Share Incentive Plan (the
"SIP")
As previously announced on 5 February 2021, the SIP is a tax-advantaged
all-employee share scheme under which eligible participating employees of XP
Factory can elect to purchase ordinary shares of 1.25p each in the Company
("Ordinary Shares") via the SIP trustee using monthly salary deductions.
Ordinary Shares acquired in this manner are referred to as "Partnership
Shares" and, for each Partnership Share purchased, participants are awarded
one further Ordinary Share, known as a "Matching Share", at nil cost.
On 14 October 2024, XP Factory received notification from Link Group, the
trustee of the SIP, that, on 11 October 2024, it purchased an aggregate of
6,150 Partnership Shares in the market at a price of 12.2 pence per share on
behalf of those Directors / PDMRs set out in the table below. At the same
time, these individuals were also awarded (for no consideration) their
corresponding Matching Shares.
