Issue of Options

(AIM: MLVN) Malvern International plc announced that it has restructured its share option awards, cancelling all existing options and granting 2,635,000 new options to 12 members of the management team, including two executive directors and another person discharging managerial responsibility. As at 1 October 2025, the Company had outstanding options awards for 11 management personnel over 2,152,000 shares, representing 8.8% of the Company's issued share capital at that date. The new options represent approximately 7.9% of the Company's current issued share capital and have an exercise price of 21 pence per share, being the closing price of the Company's shares on 15 July 2026. The options will have a ten year life and vest in tranches after two or three years, subject to the attainment of certain tiered share prices: 854,000 at 45p, 734,000 at 80p, 598,000 at 120p, and 449,000 at 150p. Richard Mace (Chief Executive Officer) is awarded 520,000 options, Daniel Chaffer (CFO Designate) 380,000 options, and Stephen Harvey (Chief Development Officer) 100,000 options. The Remuneration Committee believes the previous options were not providing a meaningful retention incentive for management and were not aligning their potential financial benefits with those of shareholders. The company projects that all the awards vest in tranches after two or three years, subject to the attainment of certain tiered share prices.
