Admission, settlement and total voting rights
Application has been made for 10,863,185 new Ordinary Shares (comprising the Retail Offer Shares, 8,400,280 new Ordinary shares issued pursuant to the Placing and 1,663,818 new Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to the Subscription) to be admitted to trading on AIM and it is expected that Admission in respect of such shares will become effective at 8:00 a.m. on or around 20 April 2026. The Fundraising Shares will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares.
Following Admission (as defined the Fundraising Announcement) in respect of the Fundraising Shares, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue will be 70,432,918. This figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Financial Conduct Authority’s Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
The person responsible for arranging the release of this Announcement on behalf of the Company is Andrew Richards, Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Retail Offer is separate from, and does not form part of, the Placing and Subscription. Completion of the Placing and Subscription is not conditional on the completion of the Retail Offer but completion of the Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the completion of the Placing and Subscription and the Fundraising Shares being admitted to trading on the AIM market operated by London Stock Exchange plc.
