On 18 August 2022, in accordance with the rules of the LTIP, FirstGroup plc (the “Company”) made the following conditional share awards to the directors listed below under the Company’s LTIP and EABP.

Following the testing of the performance conditions attached to the nil-cost conditional awards granted under the LTIP, which were reviewed as part of the FY 2025 audit, the Remuneration Committee has confirmed that the nil-cost conditional awards would vest at 100%.
