Gaming Realms plc
("Gaming Realms", the "Company" or the "Group")
Block listing application, PDMR transaction, and issue of equity
The Company has applied to the London Stock Exchange for a block listing of 6,000,000 ordinary shares of 10 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") to be admitted to trading on AIM. The Ordinary Shares that are being reserved under this block listing application will be issued by the Company, as required, in order to satisfy the exercise of share options and vested awards pursuant to the terms of the Company's 2013 EMI Plan. It is expected that admission will become effective and dealings in the new Ordinary Shares will commence on 28 July 2020. The new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares in the Company.
The Company has received notice from Mark Wilson and Jim Ryan, Non-Executive Directors of the Company, to exercise 1,538,460 share options granted under the Gaming Realms 2013 EMI Plan. These options will be satisfied under the block listing set out above.
Following allotment of the 1,538,460 new Ordinary Shares, which is expected to be on 28 July 2020, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 285,967,207 Ordinary Shares with voting rights and that figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to the interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
The Notification of Dealing Form for each PDMR can be found below. This announcement is made in accordance with Article 19 of the EU Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014.
