Cavendish plc ("Cavendish")
Directors Dealings
Cavendish plc (AIM:CAV) operates a Deferred Bonus Scheme (the "DBS") and a Short Term Incentive Scheme (the "STIP") (together, the "Schemes") which are legacy schemes established by Cenkos Securities plc but under which outstanding awards at completion of the merger between finnCap Group plc and Cenkos Securities plc (on 7 September 2023) were rolled-over into awards over Cavendish shares.
On 8 April 2026, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Schemes, one third of the DBS awards granted to certain employees, including Executive Directors, in 2023, and one-third of the STIP awards granted to certain employees, including Executive Directors, in July 2023, vested. The vested awards were satisfied by the transfer of shares allocated for that purpose under the Cenkos Securities Employee Benefit Trust (EBT).
Upon vesting of these awards, and after any off-market sales to the EBT to satisfy the income tax and NIC liability arising on the vesting, Julian Morse (Co-CEO) and Ben Procter (CFO) received and retained 681,423 and 235,578 shares respectively as shown in the table below. Julian Morse elected to satisfy the tax liability arising on vesting from his own funds and therefore retained the total number of vested shares.
