Kerry Group plc has issued and allotted 156,120 new A ordinary shares of €0.125 each between 19 January and 13 March 2026 to satisfy awards under its employee share plans. The new shares have been admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange’s Main Market under existing block admissions and are fully fungible with the company’s existing A ordinary shares.
