The overall effect of the VCP was that the participants together were able to earn Ordinary Shares equivalent in value to 10% of any equity value created above an 8% compound annual growth rate based on the measurement of absolute total shareholder return generated over the VCP performance period. The share testing period for the VCP ended on 14 April 2023. Further information on the VCP is set out in our 2022 annual report.
