("Biome" , the "Company" or the "Group")
Exercise of options, transaction in own shares, issue of equity
and director/PDMR shareholdings
Total voting rights
Biome Technologies plc, a leading bioplastics and radio
frequency technology business, announces the following transactions
involving the Company's ordinary shares of 5p each ("Ordinary
Shares").
Biome has received an exercise notice from its Chief Executive
Officer, Paul Mines, in respect of share options over 26,666
Ordinary Shares granted on 30 January 2020 in lieu of a bonus
accrued in 2018 and exercisable at 5p per share. The Company
satisfied this exercise of share options on 30 May 2023, by
transferring 16,710 Ordinary Shares out of treasury and via the
allotment of 9,956 new Ordinary Shares. An application to the
London Stock Exchange for the admission of 9,956 new Ordinary
Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission") has been made and Admission
is expected to occur on 5 June 2023.
Additionally, the Company was notified on 30 May 2023 that Paul
Mines sold 13,333 Ordinary Shares on 30 May 2023 at a price of 111
pence per Ordinary Share in order to cover his tax and National
Insurance liabilities arising from the exercise of share options
referred to above. Following this sale and the receipt of Ordinary
Shares from his option exercise, Paul Mines will have a total
beneficial holding of 57,358 Ordinary Shares, which is equivalent
to 1.52% of the voting rights in the enlarged issued share capital
of the Company.
The Company was also notified on 30 May 2023 that Robert Smith,
Biome's Chief Financial Officer, purchased 13,333 Ordinary Shares
on 30 May 2023 into his personal ISA at a price of 119 pence per
Ordinary Share. Following this purchase, Robert Smith will have a
total beneficial holding of 18,901 Ordinary Shares, which is
equivalent to 0.50% of the voting rights in the enlarged issued
share capital of the Company.
Following these transactions, there are no Ordinary Shares held
in treasury by the Company. Upon Admission, the total number of
Ordinary Shares in issue will be 3,782,596. Therefore, upon
Admission, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be
3,782,596, which may be used by shareholders as the denominator for
the calculations by which they can determine if they are required
to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the
Company under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance
and Transparency Rules sourcebook.
