LONDON - Ithaca Energy (LON:ITH) plc (LSE: IAE) has reported transactions under its Share Incentive Plan (SIP) involving key executives, according to a recent statement. On Monday, the company disclosed that Yaniv Friedman, Executive Chairman, and Iain Lewis (JO:LEWJ), Chief Financial Officer, each purchased 111 ordinary shares at a price of £1.34981 on the London Stock Exchange (LON:LSEG).

The transactions were conducted on the London Stock Exchange, with the company’s shares being listed under the ticker symbol IAE. The news of these share dealings comes as part of the company’s regular disclosures in compliance with market regulations, ensuring transparency in the dealings of its directors and persons discharging managerial responsibilities.

The information is based on a press release statement, and it serves as a factual report of the share transactions involving Ithaca Energy’s executives. The company continues to focus on its operational activities and strategic objectives, with the SIP forming a part of its broader efforts to drive company performance and shareholder returns.
