Changes in Share Options
Acuity (AIM:ACRM), the software group, announces that, when

The options have been granted under the Company's approved
Enterprise Management Incentive share option scheme (the "EMI
Scheme") and have an exercise price of 3.75
pence per
share, the closing mid-market price of the shares, as derived from
the AIM Appendix to the London Stock Exchange Daily Official List
for 25 June 2024, (being the then
market price as defined under the rules of the EMI Scheme), which
compares with 6 February 2025 closing
mid-market price of 1.85 pence per
share.
The
options are exercisable in whole or in part at any time in the next
five years conditional on the market price (under the rules of the
EMI Scheme) of the Company's shares reaching double the exercise
price for a period of at least five consecutive trading
days.
The total
number of options granted and outstanding under the EMI Scheme is
7,131,088, representing approximately 4.75 per cent of the
Company's current issued share capital. In addition, there are
1,600,000 unapproved share options. Accordingly, the total number
of options that are outstanding is 8,731,088, representing
approximately 5.82 per cent of the current issued share
capital.
