Staffline Group plc
("Staffline", the "Company" or the "Group")
Grant of Options under 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan
Staffline, the recruitment and training group, announces that,
under the terms of the Company's 2021 long term incentive plan (the
"2021 LTIP"), the Board has approved the award of and granted nil
cost options (the "Options") over 1,678,279 ordinary shares of ten
pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to certain employees,
including persons discharging managerial responsibilities
("PDMRs"), as set out below.
The vesting of the Options is subject to the satisfaction of the
Company achieving certain financial performance criteria for the
financial year ending 31 December 2023. 50% of the Options awarded
are subject to achieving earnings per share hurdles and 50% are
subject to achieving EBITDA hurdles. In addition, no Options will
vest unless the average closing price of the Ordinary Shares for
the last 30 business days of 2023 is above a minimum target. The
Options will vest from 30 June 2024 (the "Vesting Period") and will
be exercisable until 30 June 2031.
The Board believes it is key that the Group incentivises
executive directors and senior managers to drive the business
forward, whilst aligning their interests with those of
shareholders. The Options awarded to PDMRs are set out in the table
below:
