D4t4 Solutions Plc
Share Buyback Programme
D4t4 Solutions Plc (AIM: D4T4), the AIM-listed data solutions provider, announces that the Board of Directors have approved a share buyback programme of ordinary shares of 2 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") for an aggregate value of up to £200,000 (the "Buyback Programme").
The Company has entered into non-discretionary instructions with finnCap to conduct the Buyback Programme on its behalf and to make trading decisions under the Buyback Programme independently of the Company. The Buyback Programme commences from today and ends no later than upon the announcement of the Company's results for the financial year ending 31 March 2021, or when the maximum purchase of Ordinary Shares level has been reached, if earlier.
The Buyback Programme is in accordance with the terms of the Company's authority to make market purchases of its own Ordinary Shares granted to it by shareholders on 6 August 2020 (the "Authority"), including that the maximum price paid per Ordinary Share is to be no more than 105 per cent. of the average middle market closing price of an Ordinary Share for the five business days preceding the date of any Buy-back. The Company has instructed finnCap that the maximum price at which any Ordinary Share may be bought back at must be the lower of either (i) 285 pence or (ii) as stipulated by the pricing restrictions set out within its Authority.
The Company intends to hold all Ordinary Shares so purchased in treasury for the purpose of satisfying future obligations in relation to its employees' or other share schemes.
Due to the limited liquidity in the issued Ordinary Shares, a buy-back of Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Authority on any given trading day is likely to represent a significant proportion of the daily trading volume in the Ordinary Shares on AIM and is likely to exceed 25 per cent. of the average daily trading volume and, accordingly, the Company will not benefit from the exemption contained in Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014.
The Company will make further announcements in due course following any share repurchases.
