RNS Number : 4330J  YouGov PLC  26 April 2022

 

26 April 2022

 

YouGov plc

("YouGov" or "the Company")

 

Director/PDMR Dealing and Total Voting Rights

 

YouGov, the international research and data analytics group, announces that
4,661 new ordinary shares of 0.2p each ("Ordinary Shares") in the Company are
to be allotted and issued.

 

Under the Company's remuneration policy, a proportion of the Non-Executive
Directors' annual fee is paid in the form of Ordinary Shares in lieu of cash,
except if an NED has an existing substantial shareholding. Accordingly, the
Company has approved the allotment and issue of 4,661 new Ordinary Shares as
follows:

 

·      1,271 new Ordinary Shares representing a value of £15,000* to Ms
Rosemary Leith

·      424 new Ordinary Shares representing a value of £5,000* to Mr
Ashley Martin

·      424 new Ordinary Shares representing a value of £5,000* to Ms
Andrea Newman

·      2,542 new Ordinary Shares representing a value of £30,000* to Mr
Roger Parry

 

(*Based on a closing price of £11.80 as at 25 April 2022, being the previous
trading day.)

 

Following this issue, the shareholdings of these NEDs will be as follows:

·      Ms Leith will hold 15,769 Ordinary Shares (representing
approximately 0.01% of the Company's total issued share capital).

·      Mr Martin will hold 8,414 Ordinary Shares (representing
approximately 0.008% of the Company's total issued share capital).

·      Ms Newman will hold 4,071 Ordinary Shares (representing
approximately 0.004% of the Company's total issued share capital).

·      Mr Parry will hold 115,471 Ordinary Shares (representing
approximately 0.1% of the Company's total issued share capital).

 

Application will be made for the admission of these new Ordinary Shares to
trading on AIM with admission anticipated to be on 3 May 2022.

 

Total Voting Rights

 

The total number of Ordinary Shares with voting rights in issue following the
issue of these new Ordinary Shares is 111,396,726. No Ordinary Shares are held
in treasury. The above figure includes 400,006 Ordinary Shares that are held
by the YouGov Employee Benefit Trust to satisfy awards under the Company's
employee share schemes. Shareholders may use the figure of 110,996,720, 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 and Transparency
Rules.
