The performance targets relating to the PSP Options have been amended following feedback from a number of investors. They are as follows:
(i) 70% of the award is based on Earnings per Share (EPS) growth. An EPS of 7 pence per share for the year to 30 June 2022 will provide for 25% of this part of an award vesting, increasing pro rata to 100% of this part of the award vesting at 11.5 pence. These EPS targets equate to annualised growth rates of c27% per annum and 50% per annum compared to the original 7% per annum and 13% per annum targets set out in the Directors' Remuneration Report for the year ended June 2019; and
(ii) 30% of the awards are based on Total Shareholder Return - no changes have been made to this element of the award as set out in the Directors' Remuneration Report for the year ended June 2019.
