Notification of Transactions of Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ("PDMRs")
Â
As required by Article 19.3 of Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 on market abuse, Mattioli Woods (AIM: MTW.L), the specialist wealth and asset management business, announces that on 10 February 2022, 32,203 options with an exercise price of 1 pence ("Nominal Cost Options") were exercised into ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") under the Mattioli Woods 2010 Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") by PDMRs Michael Wright and Nathan Imlach.
Â
The transactions by PDMRs were as follows:
Â
Director/PDMR | Interest in Nominal Cost Options prior to the option exercises | Date of option exercise | Nominal Cost Options exercised | Interest in Nominal Cost Options following the option exercises |
Michael Wright | 83,000 | 10 Feb 2022 | 3,000 | 80,000 |
Nathan Imlach | 99,203 | 10 Feb 2022 | 29,203 | 70,000 |
Â
Following this exercise, the executive directors and PDMRs hold 504,200 unexercised LTIP Nominal Cost Options, of which 1,000 are capable of being exercised.
Â
As a result of these exercises, the total number of options in issue is 1,106,091, equivalent to 2.2 percent of the current issued share capital of the Company.
Â
Following the exercise of the options, on 10Â February 2022 Ian Mattioli, Michael Wright, Nathan Imlach and Simon Gibson sold 226,870 Ordinary Shares at a price of 800 pence per share. On 11 February 2022, Ian Mattioli sold a further 200,000 Ordinary Shares, plus 30,000 shares previously held by The Ian and Clare Mattioli Charitable Trust under his direction, at a price of 800 pence per share. Aside from the sale of 14,260 shares on 7 January 2022, Ian's last share sale was over six years ago in November 2015. This sale was completed as part of a previously announced instruction that was unable to complete due to Ian being classed as an insider under MAR until the release of The Company's interim results on 8 February 2022.

Their resultant interests in the Company are:
