Maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation

As stated in the recent trading update released on 20 October, encouraging progress is being made with robust contracted forward revenue and subscription growth, underpinned by the continued execution of the Growth Transformation Plan.
One of our objectives remains to achieve long-term compounding profit growth to enhance shareholder value, and therefore we intend to launch a £10m buyback programme this week. This follows the return of approximately £60.0m to shareholders by way of Tender Offer in September 2025, and £39.7m of shares bought back in the first half of the financial year.
