Director/PDMR Shareholding, Exercise of Share Options and Total Voting Rights

SDI Group plc, the AIM quoted group focused on the design and manufacture of scientific and technology products for use in digital imaging and sensing and control applications, announces that it has been notified that Mike Creedon, Chief Executive Officer, has purchased 42,606 shares at an weighted average price of 116 pence.

Further to the above, the Company also announces that it has issued and allotted a total of 30,000 new ordinary shares of 1 penny each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") following an exercise of options by a non PDMR employee.

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the 30,000 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission") and it is expected that Admission will become effective and trading will commence at 8:00 a.m. on or around 10 November 2023.

Following Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue will be 104,080,044 and the total number of voting rights will therefore be 104,080,044. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will 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 FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Following the purchase and Admission, Mike Creedon will hold 400,575 Ordinary Shares, representing 0.38% of the total issued share capital.
