Notification of transactions by persons discharging managerial responsibilities and persons closely associated with them

1 July 2025

On 15 April 2025, the boards of directors of ACR Bidco Limited ("Bidco") and De La Rue plc ("De La Rue") announced that they had reached agreement on the terms and conditions of a recommended all cash acquisition by Bidco of the entire issued, and to be issued, ordinary share capital of De La Rue (the "Acquisition"), to be effected by means of a Court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Part VIII of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Scheme").

On 9 May 2025, De La Rue published a scheme document in connection with the Acquisition, setting out the terms and conditions of the Scheme (the "Scheme Document"). On 3 June, the requisite approvals from Shareholders for the implementation of the Scheme were obtained.

On 30 June 2025, De La Rue and Bidco announced that the Court had granted the Court Order sanctioning the Scheme pursuant to which the Acquisition is being implemented.

As a result of the above, the transactions set out below in regards to employee share awards and share option schemes were completed. 

An award under the De La Rue Performance Share Plan 2020 granted to both Clive Vacher and Ruth Euling in August 2022 did not meet performance conditions and lapsed.

The relevant information set out below is provided in accordance with the requirements of Article 19 of the Market Abuse Regulation as retained in UK law.
