As at 6.30 p.m. (London time) on 15 October 2025 (being the time at which shareholders who wanted to attend, speak and vote at the General Meeting were required to have their details entered in the PayPoint register of members), the Company had 69,020,204 ordinary shares in issue. The voting rights attached to the ordinary shares are on the basis of one vote per share. The Company does not hold any shares in Treasury. Following a buyback and cancellation of 6 Ordinary Shares on 16 October 2025, the issued share capital of the Company at 17 October 2025 is 69,020,198 Ordinary Shares.

As part of the Share Consolidation, the Existing Ordinary Shares as at 6.00 p.m. (London Time) on 17 October (being the record time and date for entitlement to the Special Dividend and to determine the Existing Ordinary Shares subject to the Share Consolidation) will be consolidated such that Shareholders will receive 12 New Ordinary Shares for every 13 Existing Ordinary Shares held. Accordingly, it is expected that 63,710,952 ordinary shares of 0.3611 pence each in the capital of the Company (under the ISIN GB00BVMTNR93) will be admitted to trading and dealings will commence on the London Stock Exchange at 8:00 a.m. (London Time) on 20 October 2025.
