("Somero" or the "Company")
Transactions in Own Shares and Restricted Stock Units
Somero announces that on 23 September 2020 it approved the settlement of 5,548 Restricted Stock Units (RSU's) in exchange for an equivalent number of common stock shares of the Company at a price of 268.0p, reflecting the close price on the day of settlement, as permitted under the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan approved by the Board of Directors on December 3, 2019.
Application will be made to the London Stock Exchange for admission to trading on AIM of the shares of common stock in the Company to satisfy this common stock award ("Admission"). Admission is expected to occur on or about 30 September 2020. The new shares of common stock will rank pari passu with the existing common stock in the Company.
In conjunction with this common stock award, the Board of the Company has approved the cancellation of the equivalent number of shares held in Treasury.
Unless determined otherwise by the Equity Incentive Plan administrator, each RSU will be equal to one share of common stock in the Company and will entitle the Grantee to either shares of common stock or an amount of cash determined with reference to the value of shares of common stock at the discretion of the Company.
Following the above transaction, total outstanding RSUs will equal 673,818 units and the Company's total issued share capital will be 56,425,598 with 68,176 shares held in Treasury. Therefore, the total number of shares with voting rights will be 56,357,422.
