Director dealings: THG's Charles Allen snaps up 1.15m shares

THG revealed on Tuesday that non-executive director Charles Allen had acquired 1.15m ordinary shares in the London-listed e-commerce retailer.

Allen, who was named as THG's chairman back in March, purchased the shares on Monday at an average price of 86.27p each for a total value of £992,140.63.

Earlier in June, THG rejected an indicative, non-binding takeover proposal from Belerion Capital and King Street Management, stating that all the recent takeover approaches it has received had "significantly undervalued" the group.

As of 1555 BST, THG shares were down 2.72% at 82.90p.
