LONDON - Ithaca Energy (LON:ITH) plc (LSE:IAE), an oil and gas company, has reported transactions of its executives acquiring shares through dividend reinvestment. The company disclosed that on April 25, 2025, dividends paid on shares held within the Share Incentive Plan (SIP) were used to purchase additional shares, known as Dividend Shares, for its top management.
The company’s Executive Chairman, Yaniv Friedman, and Chief Financial Officer, Iain Lewis (JO:LEWJ), participated in this dividend reinvestment. According to the notification, Friedman acquired 200 ordinary shares and Lewis obtained 578 ordinary shares, both at a price of £1.3082 per share. These transactions took place on the London Stock Exchange (LON:LSEG).
The SIP allows employees to acquire shares, and dividends paid on these shares can be automatically reinvested to purchase more shares, fostering long-term ownership among the company’s management. The reinvestment plan is in line with the rules set out by the SIP scheme, aiming to align the interests of the management with those of the shareholders.
The notifications about these transactions were made in compliance with the EU Market Abuse Regulation, which mandates the disclosure of such dealings by persons discharging managerial responsibilities.
The purchase of shares by company executives is often seen as a sign of confidence in the firm’s performance and future prospects. However, it is essential for investors to consider a wide range of factors when evaluating the significance of insider transactions.
