McColl's Retail Group plc (the "Company")
Grant of Long Term Incentive Plan Awards
Notification of Transactions by Executive Directors and Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ("PDMRs")
The Company announces the grant of LTIP Awards on 6 April 2020 to the following Directors and PDMRs of the Company in accordance with the rules of the McColl's Retail Group plc Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP").
Director / PDMR | Number of ordinary shares of £0.001 each ("Shares") over which LTIP Awards were granted | Call Price per share |
Jonathan Miller | 500,933 | £0.001 |
Robbie Bell | 755,556 | £0.001 |
Richard Crampton | 500,000 | £0.001 |
Karen Bird | 358,333 | £0.001 |
Awards for Jonathan Miller and Robbie Bell will vest based on three-year relative Total Shareholder Return ("TSR") measured from the date of grant and Earnings Per Share ("EPS") growth targets measured from a 2019 base year to the year ending November 2022 as set out in the 2019 Directors' Remuneration Report ("DRR") in the Annual Report and Accounts 2019.
Awards for Richard Crampton and Karen Bird, as PDMRs of the Company, will vest based on TSR, EPS targets and a continued service element.
After consideration, the Remuneration Committee determined that the 2020 grants would be made in the normal grant window albeit award levels for Executive Directors have been further reduced compared to those set out in the DRR to reflect the current share price compared to the prevailing price at the date that the 2019 DRR was approved. Jonathan Miller's award represents an award level of 31% of salary and Robbie Bell's 61% of salary, compared to 50% and 100% respectively, as detailed in the DRR.
Under the LTIP rules, the Remuneration Committee must be satisfied that the vesting outcome when applying the EPS and TSR Targets is a genuine reflection of the underlying performance of the business and the Committee has full discretion to ensure that the final outturns reflect all relevant factors.
The awards are to be satisfied by newly issued shares.
A two year post vesting holding period will also apply to the awards of Jonathan Miller and Robbie Bell.
