("Ten" or the "Group")
Share Option Grants / PDMR Dealing
Ten Lifestyle Group plc (AIM: TENG), a leading
technology-enabled global concierge platform for the world's
wealthy and mass affluent, announces a second initiative whereby
the Group has granted share options in exchange for voluntary
salary sacrifice.
Background
The Group's business model derives its revenue substantially
from service delivery rather than conversion of bookings.
As outlined in our Half-year Report on 14 May 2020, we continue
to generate revenue by developing services relevant to our members,
the customers of our contracted corporate clients, by adapting to
our member's changing needs across each market throughout the
various phases of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Given the ongoing uncertainty, we are continuing to drive
efficiencies and prudently manage cost in the business. This
includes implementing a second voluntary salary sacrifice
initiative in exchange for share options, as detailed below.
Cash at the end of H1 2020 (February 2020) was GBP 9.6m. M
aintaining healthy corporate revenue alongside prudent cost
management, whilst continuing investment in the technology
platform, has enabled us to broadly maintain cash at this level at
the end of June 2020, despite very low levels of commission from
suppliers(1) .
(1) Ten's revenue from its supplier base, such as hotels,
airlines, and event promoters which sometimes pay commission to Ten
constituted 12% of Net Revenue for the 2019 financial year, as
reported in the 2019 Annual Report and Accounts.
Share Option Grants and PDMR Dealings
On 30 March 2020, the Group announced a salary sacrifice
initiative whereby it had granted a total of 3,708,966 options over
ordinary shares of 0.1p each ("Ordinary Shares").
As part of the Group's continued cost-saving measures, a second
salary sacrifice initiative has been offered to the Group's
employees and contractors.
Accordingly, on 9 July 2020, the Group granted options over a
total of 1,343,639 Ordinary Shares with an exercise price of
GBP1.20, exercisable for up to three years from the date of grant
(the "Options"), to certain employees and contractors of the Group
including 'persons discharging managerial responsibilities'
("PDMRs") as listed below. For every GBP1 of salary certain
employees and contractors forego over a 4-month period they will
receive three Options.
The exercise price and number of Options granted have been
determined using the Black Scholes model for option pricing to
ensure that the total economic value of these Options is equal to
the value of the total salary foregone.
Over 80 individuals have chosen to participate in the second
salary sacrifice initiative, including the PDMRs listed below. The
total cash saving to the Group over the 4-month period will be
GBP0.5m.
