Options and Director/PDMR Dealings
Frontier Developments plc (AIM:
FDEV, 'Frontier' or the 'Company'), a leading developer and
publisher of video games based in Cambridge, UK, confirms the vesting outcomes for LTIP (Long Term
Incentive Plan) share options over Ordinary
Shares of 0.5p each in the Company ('Ordinary Shares') which
were awarded to Executive Directors on 15
October 2021 (the 'Share Options').
The Share Options were awarded with
a three-year vesting period and they included performance
conditions with an element based on share price growth over that
period. As a result of the decline in the Company's share price
during the vesting period, the performance conditions for the Share
Options were not met, resulting in lapses.
The number of Share Options lapsing
on 15 October 2024 for each Executive Director is set out below,
along with the total number of share options held under all schemes
by each Executive Director after the lapses.
