Tristel plc (AIM: TSTL), the manufacturer of infection prevention, contamination control and hygiene products, announces that on 2 May 2018 the Company has issued and allotted 140,000 new ordinary shares of 1 penny each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), following the exercise of 140,000 Ordinary Shares by Liz Dixon, Finance Director, at a weighted average exercise price of 56 pence per share. A number of the share options were due to expire in July 2018.

Liz Dixon subsequently sold 140,000 Ordinary Shares at a price of 300 pence per share. Liz Dixon's resultant holding is 45,000 Ordinary Shares representing 0.1% of the issued share capital of the Company and options over 709,888 Ordinary Shares.

Of the new Ordinary Shares sold, Francisco Soler acquired 60,000 Ordinary Shares at 300 pence per share. Francisco Soler's resultant holding is 8,473,834 Ordinary Shares (includes family and related corporate vehicles) representing 19.6% of the issued share capital of the Company.

Application has been made for the new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and dealings are expected to commence on 9 May 2018. The new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the existing shares of the Company. Following the exercise of options, the Company's issued share capital consists of 43,167,633 Ordinary Shares. Accordingly, the figure of 43,167,633 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 Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
