Employee Benefit Trust (the "EBT"), purchased 48,893 ordinary shares in the capital of the Company at an average cost of £20.3105 per share.

 

The shares will be held in the EBT, which is a discretionary trust for the benefit of the Group's employees and will ultimately be used to satisfy share awards and options granted under the Company's various share incentive arrangements.

 

The Executive Directors and Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility of the Company, together with other employees, are included in the potential beneficiaries of the EBT and are therefore treated as having an interest in some of those shares and the dealings thereof.

 

Immediately following settlement of the above transaction, the EBT will hold 463,997 ordinary shares ("EBT Shares").

 

The Company's issued share capital as at 13 April 2026 consists of 116,156,371 ordinary shares of 12.5 pence each with voting rights. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury and has waived its right to exercise its voting rights and to receive dividends in respect of the EBT Shares. Therefore, the total number of voting rights is 115,692,374.
