Name of individual | Position / status | Type of award | Number of shares subject to LTIP Award |
Gavin Peck | Chief Executive Officer | LTIP Award - nil cost option | 638,297 |
Stephen Alldridge | Chief Financial Officer | LTIP Award - nil cost option | 446,808 |
The vesting of the LTIP Award is subject to the achievement of performance targets as set out below:
Measure | Weighting | Threshold (20% vesting) | Maximum (100% vesting) |
EPS1 | 50% | 5.6 pence | 15.6 pence |
Share Price2 | 50% | £0.57 | £2 |
1Basic EPS for the company's 2023/2024 financial year, pre-IFRS16 and subject to such adjustments as the Remuneration Committee determines to ensure that performance is assessed on a fair and consistent basis
2Average share price over the period of four weeks beginning with the announcement by the company of its Full Year Trading Update for its 2023/2024 financial year.
The whole LTIP Award is subject to an underpin condition in accordance with which the Remuneration Committee may adjust the formulaic vesting outturn having regard to the overall financial performance of the group over the performance period and whether any value in the LTIP Award at assessment of the performance condition represents a "windfall gain".
The LTIP Award will vest following the assessment of the performance conditions (to the extent that the conditions have been satisfied) and, in accordance with the Company's Remuneration Policy, then be subject to a further two year holding period.
