CVS Group plc
("CVS" or the "Company")
Exercise of Options
CVS, one of the UK's leading providers of integrated veterinary services for small and large animals, confirms that certain employees have exercised options during February under the Company's Save As You Earn (SAYE) 2020 scheme (the "SAYE Exercise") totalling 17,208 ordinary shares of 0.2 pence each ("Ordinary Shares").
The SAYE Exercise was satisfied out of the Company's existing Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT"). As at the date of this announcement, the remaining number of ordinary shares held by the EBT is 55,311.
The Company's total issued share capital at the date of this announcement therefore remains unchanged at 70,654,959 Ordinary Shares each carrying one voting right.
The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. The total number of voting rights is therefore 70,654,959. This figure may be used by shareholders 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 Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
