Resilient financial performance supported by a differentiated & scalable business model

 

Keystone Law Group plc (AIM: KEYS), the fast growing, UK Top 100, challenger law firm, announces that the Remuneration Committee approved the following variations to the performance criteria, vesting and holding periods in respect of the award made in June 2019 over £0.002 ordinary shares in the capital of the Company under the Keystone Law Long Term Incentive Plan 2018 ('LTIP').

William Robins (PDMR)

The LTIP Awards were granted as performance share awards which were due to vest on the third anniversary of their grant, subject to the grantees' continued employment and to the extent to which the adjusted Earnings Per Share ('EPS') and Relative Total Shareholder Return ('TSR') performance conditions set out in the LTIP Awards were met. 

70% of the LTIP Awards are assessed on growth in adjusted EPS over the vesting period. The original terms of the award were a vesting period of three years, with 100% of this part of the award vesting for compound annual growth in adjusted EPS over the Performance Period ('EPS CAGR') of 26%, 20% of this part of the award vesting for EPS CAGR of 15% and no part of this award vesting for EPS CAGR of less than 15%. Under the terms of the variation, the vesting period will now be four years, with the target EPS at the end of that period remaining as per the original targets.

30% of the LTIP Awards are assessed on the TSR of the Company over the vesting period. Following this variation, it will now be assessed over a four year period from date of grant, relative to that of those companies included in a basket of stocks throughout the Performance Period, with 100% being awarded for performance in the top quartile, 50% for performance in the second quartile and nothing awarded for performance below the median.

In addition, the recipients of the LTIP Awards will be required to retain the after-tax value of any shares under the LTIP Awards for one year from the vesting date.

Set out below are the notifications, made in accordance with the requirements of the EU Market Abuse Regulation, in relation to the variation of the LTIP Awards.
