Exercise of option under the Headlam Group plc Deferred Bonus Plan and sale of shares

Headlam Group plc (LSE: HEAD), Europe's leading floorcoverings distributor, announces that on 17 October 2024, Chris Payne exercised his 2022 nil-cost option to purchase 46,827 ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the capital of the Company ('Shares') under the Company's Deferred Bonus Plan.  The number of Shares under option reflects the addition of dividend equivalents in Shares, calculated on a reinvestment basis.  Chris Payne subsequently sold 22,064 Shares to cover exercise costs (including tax and NI) arising on exercise and has 24,763 retained Shares. 

46,827 ordinary shares of 5 pence each have been transferred from treasury stock for the purposes of satisfying the award.  Following the above transfer of treasury stock, the Company holds 4,804,315 ordinary shares as treasury shares.

The total number of ordinary shares in issue (excluding shares held as treasury shares) is 80,834,894 with one voting right per share. Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 80,834,894.  This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
