Total Voting Rights – Amendment
March 1, 2017 – Shire plc (LSE: SHP, NASDAQ: SHPG) (the “Company”) announces that the Total Voting Rights announcement, released earlier today, has been amended to reflect that the number of ordinary shares of 5 pence each of the Company with voting rights is 905,168,199 instead of 905,443,530 as previously announced.
The full amended announcement is below; all other details remain the same.
March 1, 2017 - Shire plc (LSE: SHP, NASDAQ: SHPG) (the “Company”), in accordance with 5.6.1R of the Financial Conduct Authority's (the “FCA”) Disclosure Rules and Transparency Rules, notifies the market of the following:
As at February 28, 2017, the Company’s issued ordinary share capital comprised 905,168,119 ordinary shares of 5 pence each with voting rights and a further 7,971,461 ordinary shares held in treasury.
Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company is 905,168,119. This is the figure which should be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Rules and Transparency Rules.
