NOTIFICATION AND PUBLIC DISCLOSURE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
REQUIREMENTS OF THE EU MARKET ABUSE REGULATION OF TRANSACTIONS BY
PERSONS DISCHARGING MANAGERIAL RESPONSIBILITIES ("PDMR") AND
PERSONS CLOSELY ASSOCIATED WITH THEM.
On 8 December 2022, the following award of
US$0.20 ordinary shares (the "Shares") in Smith & Nephew plc
(the "Company") vested under an award agreement to Deepak
Nath.
VESTING OF A PERFORMANCE AWARD GRANTED
UNDER THE AWARD AGREEMENT DATED 29 APRIL 2022
As set out in the announcement published on 3 May 2022, a
Performance Award over 127,461 shares was granted to Deepak Nath
with an expected vest date of 9 November 2022. The
vest of this award was subject to the performance conditions
applicable to the performance stock award over Siemens Healthineers
AG ("SH") shares originally granted to Deepak Nath by SH on 9
November 2018.
In accordance with the terms of the award agreement, the expected
vest date of 9 November 2022 was delayed so that the applicable
performance criteria attaching to the Performance Award could be
measured against the financial results of SH which were announced
on 23 November 2022. It has been determined that, following
completion of the performance measurement period, 91.985% of the
award vests. 117,245 shares were therefore available for vest with
the remaining balance of shares, 10,216, lapsing with immediate
effect.
