Total Voting Rights
YouGov, the international research
and data analytics group, announces that 922 new ordinary shares of 0.2p each
("Ordinary Shares") in the Company
are to be allotted and issued.
Under the Company's remuneration
policy, a proportion of the Non-Executive Directors' annual fee may
be paid in the form of Ordinary Shares in lieu of cash, except if
an NED has an existing substantial shareholding. Accordingly,
the Company has approved the allotment
and issue of 922 new Ordinary
Shares representing a value of £5,000*
to Nick Prettejohn.
Following this issue, Nick
Prettejohn will hold 1,496
Ordinary Shares, representing
approximately 0.001% of the Company's total
issued share capital.
Application will be
made for the admission of these new Ordinary Shares to trading on
AIM with admission anticipated to be on 19 August
2024.
The total number of Ordinary Shares
with voting rights in issue following the issue of these new
Ordinary Shares is 117,674,212. No Ordinary Shares are held in
treasury. The above figure includes
1,186,800 Ordinary Shares that are held by the YouGov Employee
Benefit Trust to satisfy awards under the Company's employee
share schemes.
Therefore, shareholders may use the
figure of 116,487,412 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 Group under
the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and
Transparency Rules.
*Based on a closing price
of £5.42 as at 12 August 2024, being the prior trading
day.
