Inside Information and Share Dealing​ Policy​

Principles

  • As a company listed on the London Stock Exchange, we comply with our obligations, including under the UK Market Abuse Regulation (MAR). This is so we avoid committing a share dealing or market abuse offence.
  • Under MAR, it is an offence to:
    • deal in Rolls-Royce shares while in possession of Inside Information or recommend to someone that they deal in shares based on Inside Information;
    • share / disclose Inside Information, other than in accordance with MAR’s procedures; and
    • do anything which gives false or misleading signals regarding Rolls-Royce shares, including the price.
  • The Disclosure Committee of Rolls-Royce Holdings plc determines whether Inside Information exists and when it should be made public.

We

  • do not deal in Rolls-Royce shares without obtaining clearance to deal first, if we have been notified that this restriction applies to us;
  • do not deal in Rolls-Royce shares in a Closed Period, if we have been notified that this restriction applies to us;
  • if we have been notified that we are included on a Confidential Project List we:
  • complete annual training to ensure we understand our obligations under MAR, if we have been notified that this is required;
  • do not deal in Rolls-Royce shares on a short-Term nature;
  • do not trade in options or other financial instruments in respect of Rolls-Royce shares;
  • contact the Corporate Governance Director immediately if we think we have access to Inside Information but have not been advised that we are on an Insider List;
  • if advised that we are on an Insider List, we:
    • do not deal in Rolls-Royce shares or make recommendations to others until we have been advised otherwise;
    • do not disclose the Inside Information to anyone else;
    • acknowledge our obligations and provide the required personal information immediately; and
    • contact the Corporate Governance Director first if we think we need to share the Inside Information with a colleague, recognising that failure to do so would be putting our colleagues at risk of committing a market abuse offence; and
  • read the introduction to our Code and Group Policies to understand to whom they apply and the consequences for breaching them.

*Short-term trading means the acquisition and disposal (or vice versa) of shares within a 12-month period.
The short-term trading restriction excludes shares acquired through Rolls-Royce share plans.
