The Mission Group plc
("MISSION" "The Company" or "The Group")
Vesting of LTIP awards, Director/PDMR dealing and
EBT share dealing
MISSION (AIM:TMG), the alternative group for ambitious brands, announces that, having vested, a total of 139,771 nil-cost options, granted under the Group's Long Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") in 2015, were exercised by certain of the Directors and employees of the Company on 16 April 2021. Accordingly, 139,771 ordinary shares of 10 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") in the Company were transferred from The Mission Group Employee Benefit Trust ("EBT") to the LTIP awardees on 16 April 2021.
In addition, as part of his annual remuneration package, James Clifton, Group Chief Executive, has been issued Ordinary Shares to the value of £25,000 ("Remuneration Shares"). The Remuneration Shares were issued at a price of 80.9p per share, being the daily average closing price for the Company's shares for the five days preceding 9 April 2021, the anniversary of his appointment as Group Chief Executive, giving a total award of 30,902 Ordinary Shares. The Remuneration Shares give rise to PAYE and NI liabilities and, as such, Mr Clifton elected to receive such number of Remuneration Shares net-of-tax, being 16,378 Ordinary Shares. These shares were transferred to Mr Clifton from the EBT on 16 April 2021, increasing his interest in the Company to 522,909 shares, representing 0.6% of the Company's issued share capital.
The exercise of LTIP options also gives rise to PAYE and NI liabilities and, as such, certain Directors and employees sold, in aggregate, 59,737 Ordinary shares at a price of 86.0p each on 16 April 2021 to meet their tax liabilities. All of these Ordinary Shares were bought by the EBT at a price of 86.0p each on 16 April 2021. In addition. David Morgan, Robert Day and Peter Fitzwilliam, Directors of the Company, and certain other employees sold, in aggregate, a further 28,682 Ordinary Shares at a price of 86.0p each on 16 April 2021 and the EBT bought all these Ordinary Shares at a price of 86.0p each on 16 April 2021.
