Quadrise Plc (AIM:QED), the supplier of innovative energy solutions for a cleaner planet, is pleased to announce that, further to the announcements made on 24 January 2025 regarding the proposed Retail Offer (the "Retail Offer Announcement") and the announcement made yesterday regarding the increased size of the Retail Offer to up to £2 million (the "Retail Offer Update Announcement"), the Retail Offer closed at 4.30 pm yesterday and was significantly oversubscribed.

The Retail Offer was oversubscribed and therefore allocations were made to existing shareholders, applying the principles of soft pre-emption. Existing Shareholders received 100 per cent. of their soft pre-emptive allowance when their order matched or exceeded their soft pre-emptive allowance. Given the level of demand, where the order was greater than the soft pre-emptive allowance shareholders received approximately c.0.35 per cent. of their additional demand1.

Accordingly a total of 217,666,666 new Ordinary Shares will be conditionally issued pursuant to the Placing, the Subscription and the Retail Offer, raising gross proceeds of approximately £6.53 million.

Completion of the Retail Offer is conditional upon, inter alia, completion of the Placing and the Subscription and the Placing Shares, Subscription Shares and the Retail Offer Shares being admitted to trading on AIM operated by the London Stock Exchange.

Soft pre-emptive allowance calculation:

Existing shares X 12.334% (dilution from total new shares being issued) = soft pre-emptive allowance allocation shares.

Additional demand allocation share calculation:

(Total order shares - Soft pre-emptive allowance allocation shares) X approximately c.0.35%
