Sylvania Platinum Limited
("Sylvania", the "Company" or the "Group")
Exercise of Vested Bonus Shares
Sylvania (AIM: SLP), the platinum group metals ("PGM"), chrome producer and developer with assets in South Africa, today announces that certain Directors, senior management and employees have, following the vesting of deferred share awards granted to them in August 2022 under the Sylvania Platinum Limited Bonus Share Award Plan (the "Plan"), exercised their rights over a total of 692,000 Ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company. This has been satisfied by issuing Ordinary Shares held in Treasury.
256,050 of the Ordinary Shares were immediately repurchased by the Company at the vesting price of 77.60 pence, in order to satisfy the tax liabilities of the PDMRs and employees.
The Plan rules allow for employees to request the Company to buy back shares in addition to the tax portion twice a year at the 30-Day VWAP. A further 409,397 Ordinary Shares have been repurchased by the Company at the 30-day VWAP of 78.49 pence, calculated at the close of business on 26 September 2025.
All of the 665,447 Ordinary Shares repurchased by the Company are being held in Treasury.
Of the total 692,000 Bonus Shares being exercised, the following relate to Directors and senior management of the Company who are deemed to be Company PDMRs:
