Grant of Long Term Incentive Plan Awards

21 November 2022 - The Board of Craneware plc (AIM: CRW.L), the market leader in Value Cycle software solutions for the US healthcare market, announces that on 18 November 2022 , under the terms of the Craneware plc Long Term Incentive Plan (2022) ("LTIP"), a conditional award of ordinary shares of 1p each in the Company ("Shares") was granted to three Directors of the Company as follows:  

Director	No. of Shares over which a conditional share award was granted	Percentage of issued share capital
Keith Neilson (CEO)	30,796	0.09%
Craig Preston (CFO)	22,890	0.06%
Isabel Urquhart (CPO)	15,734	0.04%

The awards will ordinarily vest after three years subject to:

(i) the satisfaction of certain performance conditions (each with 50% weighting) based on: (a) the Company's total shareholder return ("TSR") performance relative to the performance achieved by the constituent companies within the FTSE AIM 100 Index; and (b) compound annual growth in adjusted diluted earnings per share, as reported in the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries; and

(ii) the Director's continued employment.

The performance conditions are measured in three tranches such that one third of the Shares over which the LTIP awards subsist will vest based on performance over the three years ending on 30 June 2023, one third based on performance over the three years ending 30 June 2024 and the final third based on performance over the three years to 30 June 2025 - an aggregate five year period. Any tranche (or part thereof) that does not meet the performance criteria will lapse.

If and to the extent that these LTIP awards vest, the resulting (net of tax) Shares will be subject to a two year holding period.

There was no consideration for the grant of the LTIP awards and no consideration will be payable by the award holders to receive the Shares from these LTIP awards, if and to the extent that they vest.
