19. Share capital
Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a
deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.
Internal holdings
The ordinary shares numbered 1 to 2,400 (inclusive) in NV (‘Special Shares’) and deferred stock of PLC are held as to one half of
each class by N.V. Elma a subsidiary of NV – and one half by United Holdings Limited a subsidiary of PLC. This capital is
eliminated on consolidation.
For information on the rights related to the aforementioned ordinary shares, see Corporate governance on page 38.
Thesubsidiaries mentioned above have waived their rights to dividends on their ordinary shares in NV.
Share-based compensation
The Group operates a number of share-based compensation plans involving options and awards of ordinary shares of NV and PLC.
Full details of these plans are given in note 4C on pages 79 and 80.
