Equiniti Group plc, the FTSE-listed share services and fintech

Aston Martin Lagonda listed on the UK Main Market with a market

listing so far in 2018.
Utilising its bespoke and market leading online subscription

Equiniti has now assisted 19 companies to float on the London

This year Equiniti has already exceeded the number of UK

Paul Matthews, EQ Boardroom Chief Executive Officer, Equiniti,
was delighted to work with such a prestigious client and hopes
Aston Martin Lagonda will thrive as a public company,
commenting:
"Aston Martin Lagonda is an iconic British brand recognised all
over the world and to be appointed to administer their share
services over the course of the IPO and beyond is a real vote of
confidence in Equiniti's market proposition.
"We have worked incredibly hard both at building our pedigree to
secure such prestigious tenders and throughout the flotation
process with Aston Martin Lagonda to ensure the most prominent IPO
of 2018 was delivered without a hitch. We are proud that when the
UK's most high profile companies decide to offer employee and
customer offers, they appoint Equiniti as the recognised leader in
their market.
"We will continue to assist them as share registrar and wish
them every success as a listed company - an exciting and
challenging development as we well know from our recent IPO
experience."
