Portmeirion Group plc (AIM: PMP), the global homeware brands group, is pleased to announce that, further to the announcement made on 4 June 2026 regarding the proposed Retail Offer (the "Retail Offer Announcement"), and following the closing of the Retail Offer on 9 June 2026, 3,152,546 Retail Offer Shares will be issued at 50 pence per Retail Offer Share to raise c.£1.6 million of gross proceeds for the Company. All participants of the Retail Offer were allocated 100% of their order.

Capitalised terms not defined in this announcement (this "Announcement") have the meanings given to them in the Retail Offer Announcement.

The Retail Offer is conditional upon, amongst other things, (i) completion of the Placing, (ii) the passing of the Resolutions at the General Meeting by the Company's Shareholders, and (iii) the Retail Offer Shares being admitted to trading on AIM.

Peter Tracey, Chairman of Portmeirion commented:

"We are grateful to our existing shareholders who have participated in the Retail Offer via the BookBuild platform. We restricted the retail offer to existing shareholders only and were delighted that a large number of authorised intermediaries participated, placing orders on behalf of so many of our shareholders to raise c£1.6 million.

The Placing and Retail Offer together have raised c.£18.6 million of gross proceeds. This capital will enable us to take a major leap forward towards achieving our Fortress Balance Sheet objective. We expect additional self-help initiatives that we have already announced will strengthen our financial position further over the next 12 months.

From this position of financial strength, we focus on delivering our transformation plan in full. We have an experienced senior leadership team led by CEO Michael Scheepers and an exceptional portfolio of homeware brands including Spode, Portmeirion and Royal Worcester, so we look ahead with confidence in executing our exciting growth plans."
