Aquila Services Group plc

("Aquila" or the "Company")

Director/PDMR Shareholding

 

 

Aquila, the quoted parent company of three main trading subsidiaries which provide professional consultancy and support services to organisations and businesses involved in the affordable housing, education, sports and community services sectors announces that it has been informed of the following dealings by a PDMR.

On 29 September 2020, Chris Wood, a director of the Company's subsidiaries, in principal agreed to sell off-market 17,000 shares (held in certificated form) to 5 members of staff, in blocks of 1,000 shares for 24.7p per share being the midmarket price on 21 September 2020 of 26p, less a discount of 5% due to not selling through a broker.

The individual sales and stock transfer forms were subsequently executed and sent out to the individuals on 6 October 2020. Settlement and execution of the transfers was delayed due to the relevant share certificate being mislaid and pending issue of a replacement certificate by the Registrars.

On 4 November 2020, Aquila was informed that following issue of the replacement certificate, the settlement of the transfer of 7,000 shares had taken place on 22 October 2020 and the remaining 10,000 have been lodged with the stamp duty office awaiting approval for subsequent settlement. 

Following the sale of 17,000 shares, Mr Wood remains interested in 3,262,440 shares in Aquila representing 8.18% of the Company's issued share capital.

This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of EU Regulation 596/2014.

 

The information contained in Appendix 1 below is disclosed in accordance with Article 19 of the EU Market Abuse Regulation.
