Burberry Group plc (the "Company") - Director/PDMR Shareholdings

Grant of awards under the Burberry Group plc Burberry Share Plan 2020 ( the "BSP")

The Company announces that conditional share awards over Ordinary Shares of 0.05p each ("Shares") in the Company were granted on 27 July 2023 (the "Grant Date") to the following Executive Directors and Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities ("PDMRs") in accordance with the rules of the BSP. The conditional share awards were granted using a share price of 2182.17 pence being the average share price for the period 24 to 26 July 2023 (the three business days prior to the Grant Date).

1.    Executive Directors and PDMRs:

		Number of Shares
Jonathan Akeroyd	Chief Executive Officer	84,780
Kate Ferry	Chief Financial Officer	46,398

The conditional share awards will vest on 27 July 2026, three years following the Grant Date, but will be subject to a two-year holding period so that the total time before any sale of shares (except to cover any tax liabilities arising from the award on vesting) is five years for the entire award. 

The awards will be subject to continued employment and performance underpins based on three key areas: Revenue, Group Return on Invested Capital and brand and sustainability strategies. The performance underpins will be tested at the vesting date. If the Company does not meet one or more of the performance underpins over the vesting period then the Remuneration Committee would consider whether it was appropriate to scale back the level of pay-out under the award to reflect this.  For further information please consult our FY 2022/23 Directors' Remuneration Report.

2.    PDMR

		Number of Shares
Gianluca Flore	Chief Commercial Officer	24,306
