The latest update is out from MicroSalt plc ( (GB:SALT) ).

MicroSalt plc has granted options over 575,000 ordinary shares under its 2024 Long Term Incentive Plan to six senior executives, including the CEO, interim CFO and other key managers. The options, exercisable at £0.45 per share, will vest over two years from 31 December 2025, subject to revenue performance conditions for the 2026 and 2027 financial years.

If fully accepted, the new grants, together with existing awards, will represent about 11.8% of the company’s current issued share capital, meaning a material potential dilution for shareholders. The structure ties management rewards closely to revenue growth targets, reinforcing performance-based incentives as MicroSalt executes its growth strategy following its recent equity fundraise.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:SALT) stock is a Hold with a £60.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on MicroSalt plc stock, see the GB:SALT Stock Forecast page.
