Global Petroleum ( (GB:GEO) ) has provided an update.

GEO Exploration Limited has corrected an earlier disclosure on the number of shares issued to non-executive director Brian Chu and confirmed a broad equity-based remuneration package for its board. The company has issued substantial new ordinary shares to executive directors Omar Ahmad, Hamza Choudhry and Azib Khan, as well as to Chu, in lieu of cash fees, reinforcing its strategy of conserving cash and tying leadership compensation to equity performance.

The board has also extended by three years the expiry of warrants from its August 2023 placing and granted 490 million new share options to directors, with vesting tied to share price hurdles and time-based conditions. These moves significantly increase directors’ fully diluted stakes, are intended to incentivise long-term value creation, and underscore market-standard practices for smaller AIM companies seeking to retain key talent through equity rather than cash.
