Outstanding awards Movements in the outstanding awards including the weighted average exercise price under each of the plans is set out in the tables below.
• Exceptional Share Option Awards (“ESOA”): These are discretionary share option awards made to employees making exceptional contributions to the Company. The vesting profile and any performance conditions associated with these awards are determined by the Company’s Remuneration Committee. ESOA awards are also used to fulfil buy- out commitments and share option awards made in relation to acquisitions made by the Company. With the exception of a limited number of Good Leaver scenarios, employee eligibility for all LTIP awards is subject to continued employment. All LTIP awards are made at the discretion of the Remuneration Committee. A total of 323,670 (2024: 609,163) BRK share options were granted under the LTIP during the 2025 financial year. The vesting periods for these awards are between 12 and 36 months. In the 2025 financial year, 4,330 share options expired (2024: none). Long-Term Incentive Scheme (“LTIS”) Share-based incentives were made under the LTIS scheme before its replacement by the LTIP scheme in 2018. No LTIS grants were made after 2017 and no holdings or commitments remain under this scheme, all awards having been vested and exercised. Valuation of awards Full details of the awards granted during the year along with their valuation and the inputs used in the valuation are described in the tables below. The valuation was determined using the Black- Scholes-Merton model.
