The Company announces that it has successfully completed its £50m share buyback programme (the " Programme "), which launched on 2 September 2025. In total, under the Programme, the Company purchased 2,632,856 Ordinary Shares in aggregate for cancellation. The average price paid per share was £18.99. All Ordinary Shares acquired under the Programme have been, or will shortly be, cancelled.
Following completion of the Programme and such cancellation, the issued share capital of the Company will consist of:
- 90,679,215 Ordinary Shares of 5 pence each with voting rights; and
- 17,481,868 Convertible Non-Voting Ordinary Shares of 5 pence each.
The Company does not hold any shares in treasury as at the date of this disclosure.
The Convertible Non-Voting Ordinary Shares do not have voting rights. The total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore 90,679,215 and may be used by shareholders (and others with notification obligations) 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 Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
