Shareholders of MOTORPOINT GROUP PLC
MOTORPOINT GROUP PLC’s ordinary shares trade on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange, and as a company with voting shares admitted to trading on a UK regulated market it has been exempt from the requirement to maintain a Companies House register of persons with significant control since 11 April 2018; accordingly, major shareholdings are disclosed through regulatory (TR-1) notifications of voting rights rather than through the PSC register. According to TR-1 notifications filed with the company, Saray Value Fund SPC held 19,250,000 voting rights, representing 23.02% of total voting rights, as notified on 24 June 2026, and Apex Financial Services (Trust Company) Limited, of Saint Helier, Jersey, held 6,774,593 voting rights, representing 8.102%, as notified on 28 July 2026, in both cases held through direct share ownership rather than financial instruments. Separately, a Director/PDMR shareholding notification dated 4 February 2025 recorded Mark Carpenter, Chief Executive Officer, as holding 8,531,693 ordinary shares, representing 9.85% of the 86,619,822 ordinary shares then in issue, following a sale of 50,000 shares. Third-party financial-data aggregators additionally report holdings of around 9.7% for Forager Capital Management LLC and around 5.7% for LVO Global Asset Management SA, but these two figures were not independently confirmed against a primary regulatory filing for this profile and should be treated with more caution. None of these percentages should be treated as current beyond their notified or reported dates, since further changes may not yet be reflected.
Data availability
Classification: Major shareholders only. As a London Stock Exchange Main Market-listed company exempt from PSC registration, MOTORPOINT GROUP PLC discloses only shareholdings that cross regulatory notification thresholds (starting at 3% of voting rights) rather than a complete shareholder register; smaller holdings and the balance of the free float are not individually disclosed, and no current ultimate beneficial owner meeting the UK’s more-than-25% PSC threshold has been identified from a verified single direct holding.
