Ebiquity PLC has announced the issuance of 80,000 ordinary shares and the transfer of 40,000 ordinary shares from the Ebiquity PLC Employee Benefit Trust. The new ordinary shares are expected to be admitted to AIM on July 18, 2024, and will rank equally with the existing ordinary shares. Following this, the total number of ordinary shares in issue will be 140,567,122, with each share carrying the right to one vote.
The Ebiquity PLC Employee Benefit Trust will hold 3,839,703 issued ordinary shares after the transfer, to satisfy certain LTIP awards for the company's senior management team. The trustee has agreed not to vote the ordinary shares held by it, and as such, these shares are treated as not carrying voting rights. Shareholders may use the figure of 136,727,419 as the denominator for the calculations to determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the company under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
