Grant of share options
Nightcap (AIM: NGHT), the operator of The Cocktail Club, the Adventure Bar Group, Barrio Familia and the Dirty Martini group of bars, announces that it has granted a total of 1,160,000 share options to a number of the Group's employees (the "Options"). The Options have been granted pursuant to Nightcap's existing share option plans, and include grants under the Company Share Option Plan ("CSOP") and the grant of unapproved options. All of the Options have been granted on the same terms.
1,000,000 Options have been granted to Adam Dilks who is a person discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMR"). The other 160,000 Options have been granted to Group employees.
All of the Options have been granted with an exercise price of 11.00 pence, which represents the closing mid-market share price on 29 June 2023. The Options will become exercisable from the third anniversary of the grants until the tenth anniversary of the date of the grant, but will only be exercisable subject to the Group achieving EBITDA profitability targets based on the audited accounts in the prior accounting year at the time of exercise.
Following these Option grants, Nightcap's entire option pool is now equivalent to 11.3% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital.
