· Issued by Moonpig Group PLC

Summary by 6ix AI

Moonpig Group plc Executive Director Andy MacKinnon received shares on October 1, 2026 from two long-term incentive plan (LTIP) awards granted on September 19, 2023. He sold part of the shares to cover income tax, National Insurance and dealing costs.

Key details

  • One-off award: 51.38% vested. Adjusted pre-tax earnings per share was just above threshold, and the total shareholder return condition was between threshold and maximum. He was awarded 245,725 shares, including 3,943 dividend equivalent shares, and 116,072 were sold at £2.71869 per share.
  • Top-up award: 100% vested because both performance conditions were met. He was awarded 121,883 shares, including 1,955 dividend equivalent shares, and 57,573 were sold at £2.71869 per share. The performance period for both awards ended on April 30, 2026.
  • The shares came from an Employee Benefit Trust, a trust that holds shares for staff awards. The sales took place on the London Stock Exchange. After the transactions, the trust holds 357,419 shares, or 0.12% of the issued share capital as at October 5, 2026.
  • After the transactions, Andy MacKinnon holds 1,552,759 shares, worth 986% of his salary, which meets the 300% shareholding requirement. Executive Director Catherine Faiers holds 124,215 shares, worth 58% of her salary, which does not meet the requirement.

What’s still pending

  • Shares from the LTIP awards must be held for two years after vesting.
