(Alliance News) - The following is a round-up of share dealings by London-listed company directors and managers announced on Friday and not separately reported by Alliance News:

----------

B90 Holdings PLC - Isle of Man-based sportsbook operator and online marketing gaming - Convertible loan and accrued interest totalling GBP3.9 million converted into 68.3 million new shares. Share price on Friday is 12.6p, so the new shares are worth GBP8.6 million. B90 now has 194.5 million shares in total. As a result of the conversion, Non-Executive Director Mark Rosman receives 11.4 million shares, giving him a total holding of 14.4 million, a 7.4% stake. "The company now has a much more stable financial platform to grow from," says Executive Chair Paul Duffen. "The conversion of the convertible loan removes the vast majority of the group's indebtedness and together with the proceeds from our recent subscription leaves us with a much improved balance sheet."

----------

Breedon Group PLC - East Midlands-based construction materials - Human Resources Director Stephen Tagg and spouse Caroline Tagg sell 106,469 shares at GBP1.00, worth GBP106,767, on Thursday. Tagg now interested in 361,421 shares. Breedon on Tuesday said its expectations for 2021 are unchanged, as the pandemic continues to cause disruption, even after sales jumped in the first quarter, with like-for-like revenue up 7% year-on-year.
