1 Adjusted EPS is calculated as adjusted operating profit before tax divided by the weighted average number of shares in issue by the Group for the period.

Consistent with past practice, the adjustment to the interest and number of shares reduced the reinsurance and bank financing costs by £8m, thereby increasing operating profit to £345m and the number of shares to 1,007m, resulting in an adjusted EPS of 34.3 pence. Buy-out awards In line with the disclosure in the 2019 Directors’ Remuneration Report, cash buy-out awards of £265,428 and £238,680, and share buy-out awards with a value of £1,191,528 were granted to Andy Parsons on 20 March 2020 as three conditional share awards and the following were paid to him in 2022: • The last tranche of award (I) and the second tranche of award (II) vested on 31 March 2022. A total of 333,735 shares were released to Andy for nil consideration at a market price of £0.888114. 157,408 shares were sold to cover his tax liability and 176,327 shares were retained. • The award (III) of 618,024 shares is subject to the same performance conditions applied to the 2019 LTIP grant based on EPS and TSR which were achieved at 31.8%. Consistent with past practice and the 2019 LTIP outturn, the adjustment to the interest and number of shares reduced the reinsurance and bank financing costs by £16m, thereby increasing operating profit to £251m and the number of shares to 933m resulting in an adjusted EPS of 26.9p. 196,531 shares were therefore vested and released to Andy on 16 May 2022 for nil consideration at a market price of £0.8045. 95,161 shares were sold to cover his tax liability and 101,370 shares were retained.
