Group Performance, Shareholder Wealth and Director and Executive Remuneration
The remuneration policy has been tailored to increase goal congruence between shareholders, Directors and
executives. The achievement of this aim has been through the issue of options or performance rights to Directors
and executives to encourage the alignment of personal and shareholder interests.
Executive and non-executive Directors and other key management personnel may be granted options or
performance rights over ordinary shares.
The recipients of options or performance rights are responsible for growing the Group and increasing shareholder
value. If they achieve this goal the value of the options or performance rights granted to them will also increase.
Therefore, the options or performance provide an incentive to the recipients to remain with the Group and to
continue to work to enhance the Group’s value.
Options granted for the Year Ended 30 June 2023
