Spectris plc - Share buy-back programme
10 September 2021 - Spectris plc (SXS: LSE) (the 'Group'), the
expert in providing insight through precision measurement,
announces that it is commencing the final tranche of the share
repurchase programme of the Group's ordinary shares of 5 pence each
(the 'Ordinary Shares') for a maximum consideration of up to GBP200
million announced in its 2020 full year results on 25 February 2021
(the 'Programme'). The purpose of the Programme is to reduce the
Group's outstanding Ordinary Shares and accordingly the Group
intends to cancel the Ordinary Shares purchased under the
Programme.
The final tranche of the Programme will be carried out through
an irrevocable non-discretionary agreement with J.P. Morgan
Securities plc ('JPM'), pursuant to which JPM shall purchase
Ordinary Shares as riskless principal (and not as agent of Spectris
plc) for the subsequent sale on to, and purchase by, Spectris plc.
This final tranche will run from 10 September 2021 and end no later
than 30 November 2021 (subject to no regulatory objections or
concerns arising), for an aggregate consideration of up to, but no
greater than, GBP52,928,796.80. The maximum number of Ordinary
Shares that can be purchased under the final tranche of the
Programme is 8,813,793 Ordinary Shares (based on authority granted
at the Group's 2021 annual general meeting). JPM will make its
trading decisions in relation to the Ordinary Shares independently
of, and uninfluenced by, the Group.
Any purchase of Ordinary Shares under the final tranche of the
Programme will be carried out on the London Stock Exchange and any
other UK recognised investment exchange which may be agreed, in
accordance with pre-set parameters and in accordance with (and
subject to limits prescribed by) the Group's general authority to
repurchase Ordinary Shares granted by its shareholders at its most
recent annual general meeting, Chapter 12 of the Financial Conduct
Authority's Listing Rules, Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No.
596/2014 (as incorporated into UK domestic law by the European
Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018) and Commission Delegated Regulation
(EU) 2016/1052 (as incorporated into UK domestic law by the
European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018). The Group will announce any
market repurchases of Ordinary Shares no later than 7.30 a.m. on
the business day following the calendar day on which the repurchase
occurred.
