Speedy Hire ( (GB:SDY) ) just unveiled an update.
Speedy Hire has reported its latest six‑monthly block listing update for its UK and Irish Sharesave schemes, confirming that no new shares were issued or allotted during the period from 1 September 2025 to 28 February 2026. The balance of 1,918,766 unallotted ordinary shares of 5 pence each therefore remains available under the employee share plans, signalling continuity in its equity‑based incentive capacity without further dilution for existing shareholders.
The unchanged block listing position indicates that the company did not need to draw on its authorised pool of shares for employee exercises in the period, which may reflect timing of option maturities or participation patterns rather than a strategic shift. For investors, the static share count under these schemes means no incremental issuance pressure over the half‑year, while employees still retain access to a substantial reserve of shares for future participation.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:SDY) stock is a Hold with a £28.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Speedy Hire stock, see the GB:SDY Stock Forecast page.
