Performance Targets attached to 2020 Long-Term Performance Plan ('LTPP') Award
As outlined in the 2020 Annual Report, given the uncertainties caused by COVID-19 and the economic outlook, it was difficult to set meaningful targets for the 2020 LTPP at the time of its grant in November 2020.
The Remuneration Committee therefore agreed that, whilst the 2020 LTPP awards would be granted as normal in October/November 2020, the targets applicable to those awards would be set within six months of the grant when there would be more clarity over the Group's medium term outlook. It was further agreed that the targets would be published on the Company's website when set and communicated to participants and also included in the FY21 Remuneration Report.
The Remuneration Committee has now agreed that the 2020 LTPP awards granted on 30 November 2020 will be subject to the following EPS and Underlying ROCE performance targets measured over a three-year performance period commencing 1 July 2020:
