Exercise of Options and Total Voting Rights
Sigma Capital Group plc, the private rented sector and urban regeneration specialist, announces that on 31 January 2018, Graeme Hogg and Gwynn Thompson, Chief Operating Officer and Property Investment Director of the Company respectively, exercised options over 243,500 ordinary shares of 1 pence each in the capital of the Company ("New Shares" and "Ordinary Shares"). These options were granted under the Company's approved share option scheme. Graeme Hogg exercised options over 118,500 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of 7.5 pence per each and Gwynn Thompson exercised options over 125,000 Ordinary Shares at an exercise price of 8.0 pence each.
Following the exercise of options, Mr Hogg's total interest in the Company is 654,996 Ordinary Shares, representing 0.7 per cent. of the total voting rights of the Company and Mr Thompson's total interest in the Company, is 267,857 Ordinary Shares, representing 0.3 per cent. of the total voting rights of the Company.
Application has been made for the New Shares, which rank pari passu in all respects with the Company's existing Ordinary Shares, to be admitted to trading on AIM which is expected to occur on or around 6 February 2018.
Following the issue of the New Shares, the Company's total issued share capital will consist of 88,959,215 Ordinary Shares with one voting right per share. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in Treasury. Therefore, following the issue of the New Shares, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 88,959,215. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
