ConvaTec Group Plc("ConvaTec" or "the Company")Director/PDMR Shareholding
The Company announces the following change in the interests of Directors in ordinary shares of 10 pence each in the share capital of the Company ("Shares").
On 1 May 2020, Karim Bitar, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Frank Schulkes, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, both Executive Directors, were granted conditional share awards, under the Company's Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"). Subject to shareholder approval of the Directors' Remuneration Policy at the 2020 Annual General Meeting, these awards shall be subject to continued employment for three years, and performance conditions based on a combination of: relative total shareholder return, and adjusted PBT growth, both over a three year period, weighted 25% and 75% respectively.
As published in the 2019 Annual Report, total shareholder return will be measured relative to the FTSE 350 excluding investment trusts. Relative TSR will be measured over the performance period of three years (commencing 1 January 2020) calculated in GBP and using three-month averaging. Adjusted PBT growth will be measured as the three‑year compound annualised growth rate over the same performance period (i.e. three years from 1 January 2020). The adjusted PBT targets will be appropriately stretching, and linked to a new strategic plan and corresponding operating model for the three years. However, as at the date of grant, the strategic plan remains under review to ensure that the impact of the COVID‑19 pandemic is appropriately reflected. This means that the PBT growth targets applicable to these awards have not been finalised yet. The Board expects that the PBT growth targets shall be set by 15 August 2020 and these will be announced by RNS once they have been agreed.
Karim Bitar: 1,061,532 Shares
Frank Schulkes: 535,752 Shares
No consideration was paid for the grant of these awards.
The attached notification, made in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation, gives further detail.
