APPENDIX I

EXTRACTS FROM THE CIRCULAR

PART I

Letter from the Chairman of EVERYMAN MEDIA GROUP PLC

1. Introduction

As announced by the Company on 16 June 2026, Adam Kaye, Charles Dorfman and Michael Rosehill (being the “Substantial Director Shareholders”), each of whom are directors of the Company and accounted for 45.6 per cent. of the issued share capital through direct and indirect holdings on that date, communicated to the Board their support for a cancellation of trading in the Company's Ordinary Shares on AIM.

Following share purchases by Charles Dorfman, the Substantial Director Shareholders have an increased combined holding of 47.3 per cent. of the issued share capital through direct and indirect holdings. The Board are also aware that additional shareholders, who hold 13.9 per cent. of the issued share capital, are also supportive of the Cancellation. In total therefore as at the date of this Announcement, Shareholders (and persons connected to them) who account for 61.2 per cent. of the issued share capital are supportive of the Cancellation.

Since 16 June 2026 the Board has sought to engage with others major shareholders to understand their views on the proposed Cancellation. The Board has also received and considered feedback from certain minority shareholders, private investors and stakeholders.

Recognising that each of the Substantial Director Shareholders are directors of the Company, the Board appointed an Independent Committee, formed of the Independent Directors, to consider the Cancellation and to guide the Board on its own deliberations in deciding on whether the Company should:

•                  proceed with the Cancellation; and if so
• whether the Board should recommend to Shareholders that they should vote in favour of the Resolutions.

Shareholders should be aware that the Independent Directors have concluded that they believe the Company should proceed with the Cancellation, for the reasons set out in Part II of this Announcement, and have so advised the Board they should recommend to Shareholders a vote in favour of the Resolutions.

If the Resolutions are passed at the General Meeting, it is anticipated that the Cancellation will become effective at 7.00 a.m. on 12 November 2026. Pursuant to Rule 41 of the AIM Rules, the Resolutions are conditional on the approval of Shareholders holding not less than 75 per cent. of the votes cast by Shareholders (whether present in person or by proxy) at the General Meeting.

2. Background to and reasons for Board recommending the Cancellation

The Board has reflected on the views provided by Shareholders and the recommendation of the Independent Directors as set out in Part II of the Announcement. The Board has concluded the disadvantages associated with maintaining the admission of the Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM to be disproportionately high when compared to the perceived benefits of continuing to being quoted on AIM.

The Board is recommending that Shareholders vote in favour of the Cancellation for the following reasons: 

• Shareholders who account for 61.2 per cent. of the current issued share capital have provided irrevocable undertakings to vote (or, where applicable, procure voting) in favour of the Resolutions, as set out section 13 of this Part I. This represents a majority of shareholders, by number of Shares held, whilst recognising the Resolutions are conditional on the approval of Shareholders holding not less than 75 per cent. of the votes cast by Shareholders (whether present in person or by proxy) at the General Meeting.
• Everyman has a limited free float and a lack of liquidity in its Ordinary Shares as a quoted Company on AIM. The Directors believe this has negatively impacted the share price of the Company and is unlikely to change. The Directors believe the lack of free float and liquidity is unlikely to change and will therefore continue to impact the valuation of the Company in a listed environment. 
• Despite the Company’s positive momentum in 2026, its strengthened management team and a focused strategy the Directors believe the current market capitalisation of the Company does not reflect the positive achievements nor the underlying prospects of the business. Consequently, the Directors are of the view that, as an unlisted company, Everyman will be able to realise a greater valuation in the future than that which could be achieved as a quoted company.
• Linked to the above, the Board believes that as an unlisted company Everyman management can better take and implement strategic decisions that will assist the business in creating long term value. As a quoted company the Board believes such strategic decisions could be viewed negatively as they may affect short-term financial performance which is likely to negatively affect investor sentiment and therefore the share price and reputation of the Company.
• The financial performance of Everyman is heavily reliant on the film slate. The Company has consistently communicated to Shareholders that the quality and number of releases within the film slate each year can change materially and is outside the control of the Company. Because of this uncertainty the Company has struggled to provide accurate guidance on its future financial performance which has negatively impacted investor sentiment towards the Company and the share price.
• Film and entertainment revenue represented approximately 48 per cent. of total revenue and food and beverage revenue represents a further approximately 43 per cent. of total revenue for the 52 weeks ended 1 January 2026. Both of these revenue streams are intrinsically linked to admissions. The Directors believe the Company has to execute strategic steps and undertake significant investment to reduce its reliance on admissions, which is likely to negatively affect the financial performance of the Company over the next 12 to 24 months.
• The Board believes that an unlisted company can take and implement strategic decisions faster than a company which is publicly traded because of the more flexible regulatory regime that is applicable to an unlisted company. This will be advantageous in the Company’s strategy which may ultimately benefit the Company and Shareholders as a whole.

3. Process for, and principal effects of, the Cancellation

The Directors are aware that certain Shareholders may be unable or unwilling to hold Ordinary Shares in the event that the Cancellation is approved and becomes effective. Such Shareholders should consider selling their interests in the market prior to the Cancellation becoming effective. However, should the Cancellation become effective, the Company intends to implement a Matched Bargain Facility with a third party which would facilitate Shareholders buying and selling Ordinary Shares through periodic auctions following Cancellation. Further details will be sent to Shareholders and posted on the Company's website, if the Cancellation proceeds (see section 4.2 below).

Under the AIM Rules, the Company is required to give at least 20 clear Business Days’ notice of Cancellation. Additionally, Cancellation will not take effect until at least five clear Business Days have passed following the passing of the Resolutions. If the Resolutions are passed at the General Meeting, it is proposed that the last day of trading in Ordinary Shares on AIM will be 11 November 2026 and that the Cancellation will take effect at 7.00 am on 12 November 2026.

The principal effects of the Cancellation will include the following:

• the Ordinary Shares will cease to be admitted to trading on AIM and will no longer be traded on a continuous public market;
• the Company intends to facilitate secondary trading in the Ordinary Shares through periodic trading events conducted via the Asset Match Private Market, although there can be no guarantee as to the level of participation, liquidity or pricing achieved at any such trading event;
• trading opportunities are expected to be available only during periodic trading events, rather than on a continuous basis, and accordingly shareholders may find it more difficult to buy or sell Ordinary Shares than when the Company was admitted to AIM;
• liquidity in the Ordinary Shares may be reduced following Cancellation and this may have an adverse effect on both the marketability and value of the Ordinary Shares;
• there may be longer periods between opportunities to trade Ordinary Shares and shareholders may have fewer reference points for assessing the value of their investment between trading events;
• the AIM Rules for Companies will cease to apply to the Company following Cancellation;
• the Company will no longer be subject to the AIM Rules for Companies and certain shareholder protections associated with an AIM admission will cease to apply. The Company will, however, continue to provide disclosures in accordance with the requirements of the PISCES framework and applicable law;
• the Company will no longer be required to retain a nominated adviser and/or broker;
• the Company will cease to be subject to the regulatory and reporting obligations applicable solely by virtue of its admission to AIM, although it will remain subject to applicable company law and any requirements arising from participation in the Asset Match Private Market PISCES framework;
• the Company will no longer be required to disclose changes in major shareholdings under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules;
• whilst the Company's CREST facility is expected to remain in place following Cancellation, there can be no guarantee that it will continue indefinitely and alternative arrangements may be required in the future;
• transfers of Ordinary Shares effected through the Asset Match Private Market PISCES framework are not expected to be subject to stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax; and
• the Cancellation may have taxation consequences for Shareholders. Shareholders should seek their own independent professional advice regarding the tax consequences of the Cancellation and their continued ownership of Ordinary Shares.

The above considerations are not exhaustive, and Shareholders should seek their own independent advice when assessing the likely impact of the Cancellation on them.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company will remain registered with the Registrar of Companies in England and Wales in accordance with and, subject to the Companies Act, notwithstanding the Cancellation.

The Company currently intends to continue to provide certain facilities and services to Shareholders that they currently enjoy as shareholders of an AIM company. The Company will:

• following the Cancellation seek to make available to Shareholders, through Asset Match (www.assetmatch.com), a Matched Bargain Facility which would allow Shareholders to buy and sell Ordinary Shares through periodic auctions following the Cancellation (see section 4.2 below);
• continue to communicate information about the Company (including interim and annual accounts) to its Shareholders, as required by the Companies Act; and
• continue, for at least 12 months following the Cancellation, to maintain its website, https://investors.everymancinema.com and to post updates on the website from time to time, although Shareholders should be aware that there will be no obligation on the Company to include all of the information required under the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, Rule 26 of the AIM Rules or to update the website as required by the AIM Rules.

It is intended that the Matched Bargain Facility will operate for a minimum of 12 months after the Cancellation. The Directors' current intention is that it will continue beyond that time, but Shareholders should note that there remains a risk that the Matched Bargain Facility may not remain in place post the 12 month period and therefore inhibit the ability to trade the Ordinary Shares. Further details will be communicated to Shareholders at the relevant time.  

There will be no change to the composition of the Board immediately following the Cancellation.

4.                    Transactions in the Ordinary Shares prior to and post the proposed Cancellation
   1.                 Prior to Cancellation

Shareholders should note that they are able to continue trading in the Ordinary Shares on AIM prior to Cancellation.

2.                 Dealing and settlement arrangements

The Directors recognise that Shareholders may wish to acquire or dispose of Ordinary Shares following Cancellation. Subject to Shareholder approval of the Cancellation, the Company intends to facilitate secondary trading in the Ordinary Shares through the Asset Match Private Market operating under the Private Intermittent Securities and Capital Exchange System ("PISCES") framework.

Asset Match, which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, is expected to provide a venue through which eligible investors may buy and sell Ordinary Shares through periodic trading events. These trading events will be conducted in accordance with the rules and requirements applicable to the Asset Match Private Market and the wider PISCES regulatory framework.

Unlike AIM, where shares may be traded on a continuous basis during market hours, trading opportunities on PISCES occur during scheduled trading events. During these events, buy and sell orders may be submitted, amended or withdrawn in accordance with the applicable market rules. At the conclusion of each trading event, orders are matched using a transparent auction process designed to establish a market price based on supply and demand.

The Directors believe that participation in the Asset Match Private Market will provide Shareholders with an ongoing mechanism through which to trade Ordinary Shares following Cancellation, whilst enabling the Company to operate within a regulatory framework designed specifically for private company secondary market liquidity.

Further information regarding participation in trading events, investor eligibility requirements, dealing procedures and arrangements will be made available by the Company and Asset Match prior to the commencement of trading.

The Company currently expects that Shareholders will continue to be able to hold their Ordinary Shares in uncertificated form through CREST. Shareholders should consult their stockbroker, custodian or other professional adviser regarding their ability to participate in trading events and any applicable settlement arrangements.

Full details of the Company's participation in the Asset Match Private Market, including details of future trading events and relevant shareholder information, will be made available on the Company's website and communicated to Shareholders where appropriate.

Shareholders wishing to trade Ordinary Shares on AIM must do so prior to the Cancellation becoming effective. Subject to Shareholder approval of Resolution 1, it is anticipated that the last day of dealings in the Ordinary Shares on AIM will be 11 November 2026 and that Cancellation will take effect at 7:00 a.m. on 12 November 2026.

5. Current Trading, Strategy and Prospects

Current Trading

On 3 September 2026, the Company announced the following key performance indicators within its unaudited interim results for the 26 week period ended 2 July 2026 (H1 2025: 3 July 2025):

• Admissions of 2.6m, up 20.5% (H1 2025: 2.2m);
• Revenue of £69.8m, up 23.5% (H1 2025: £56.5m);
• Adjusted EBITDA post-IFRS16 of £10.8m, up 32.0% (H1 2025: £8.2m);
• Market share increased to 6.4%, up 60bps (H1 2025: 5.8%); and
• Net bank debt of £17.4m (H1 2025: £24.2m), down 27.8%.

Everyman had strong results across a wide range of films, genres and events in the first half of 2026. The Company also delivered its highest performance on original IP, book adaptations, and biopics. This growth was supported by strong market share of 6.4%, up 60 basis points (H1 2025: 5.8%) with higher performance on such titles as The Devil Wears Prada 2, Wuthering Heights, Project Hail Mary, Hamnet and Michael. 

The Directors believe however that whilst trading performance for the first half of the financial year has been positive, they retain a degree of caution for the full year outlook (ending 31 December 2026) due to the challenging economic environment and the significance of Q4 trading to the overall annual performance of the Company. The final two weeks of December trading are particularly significant for the Group, with key titles including Avengers: Doomsday and Dune: Part Three due to be released in this period.

Strategy and Prospects

Everyman sees opportunities to grow revenue beyond admissions and food and beverage to consolidate its brand as a pioneer in premium cinema. The Board intends to achieve this by:

• Elevating the Everyman guest experience;
• Optimising and expanding Everyman’s footprint with discipline;
• Unlocking new channels for audience engagement and brand relevance;
• Deepening strategic relationships with distributor partners; and
• Collaborating with aspirational brands.

Whilst 2026 is proving to be a very successful year for film, the Board expects a tougher outlook for 2027 before the market returns to growth in 2028 and 2029. Future growth is expected from a mixture of higher admissions, 3 new venue openings expected in late 2027, restructuring and significant investment in technology and training.

The following initiatives are to be implemented over the next three years to underpin expected growth:

• Assessing technology investment to create a more seamless customer journey for ticketing, membership sales and Food and Beverage pre-ordering. 
• Implementing a CRM system to enable data and consumer insights to firstly refine film curation across core and growing segments including Gen Z and Family, and secondly to enhance marketing efficacy and impact.
• Investment in operational training and developing playbooks for new and maturing venues.
• New venue openings at Lichfield, Elephant & Castle and High Street Kensington, with openings anticipated in H2 2027 and funded through free cash flow. The phasing of capital expenditure and final opening timing will be dependent on when access to the properties is granted.
• Unlocking opportunities to grow revenue beyond core, including expanding income from partnerships, events and corporate private hires. Also continuing to grow partnership collaborations with aspirational brands including Range Rover, Ella's Kitchen, Emirates, Diet Coke and Rolex.
• Further innovation in high quality, on trend Food & Beverage to leverage consumption patterns and support continued increase in spend per head. 

By 2029 the Directors are targeting annual revenue of £170m, a statutory profit before tax of £5m and an adjusted EBITDA (post-IFRS16) of £27m. In order to achieve these financial targets the Board expect a period of volatility in the Group’s financial performance as key growth initiatives are implemented and due to variations in the quality of the film slate.

6. Takeover Code

The Takeover Code (the “Code”) applies to any company which has its registered office in the UK, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man if any of its equity share capital or other transferable securities carrying voting rights are admitted to trading on a UK regulated market, a UK MTF, or a stock exchange in the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man. The Code therefore applies to the Company as its securities are admitted to trading on AIM, which is a UK MTF.

The Code also applies to any company which has its registered office in the UK, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man if any of its securities were admitted to trading on a UK regulated market, a UK MTF, or a stock exchange in the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man at any time during the preceding two years.

Accordingly, if the Cancellation is approved by Shareholders at the General Meeting and becomes effective, the Code will continue to apply to the Company for a period of two years after the Cancellation, following which the Code will cease to apply to the Company.

While the Code continues to apply to the Company, a mandatory cash offer will be required to be made if either:

1.       any person acquires an interest in shares which (taken together with the shares in which the person or any person acting in concert with that person is interested) carry 30% or more of the voting rights of the company; or

2.      any person, together with persons acting in concert with that person, is interested in shares which in the aggregate carry not less than 30% of the voting rights of a company but does not hold shares carrying more than 50% of such voting rights and such person, or any person acting in concert with that person, acquires an interest in any other shares which increases the percentage of shares carrying voting rights in which that person is interested.

Brief details of the Takeover Panel, and of the protections afforded by the Code, are set out in section 7 of this Part I. Before voting on the Cancellation, you may want to take independent professional advice from an appropriate independent financial adviser.

7. The Code

The Code is issued and administered by the Panel. The Code currently applies to the Company and, accordingly, Shareholders are entitled to the protections afforded by the Code.

The Code and the Panel operate principally to ensure that shareholders in an offeree company are treated fairly and are not denied an opportunity to decide on the merits of a takeover and that shareholders in the offeree company of the same class are afforded equivalent treatment by an offeror. The Code also provides an orderly framework within which takeovers are conducted. In addition, it is designed to promote, in conjunction with other regulatory regimes, the integrity of the financial markets.

The Code is based upon a number of General Principles, which are essentially statements of standards of commercial behaviour. The General Principles apply to takeovers and other matters to which the Code applies. They are applied by the Panel in accordance with their spirit in order to achieve their underlying purpose.

In addition to the General Principles, the Code contains a series of rules. Like the General Principles, the rules are to be interpreted to achieve their underlying purpose. Therefore, their spirit must be observed as well as their letter. The Panel may derogate or grant a waiver to a person from the application of a rule in certain circumstances. A summary of key points regarding the application of the Code to takeovers is set out in Part III of the Circular.

8. Process for Cancellation

Under the AIM Rules, it is a requirement that the Cancellation must be approved by Shareholders holding not less than 75 per cent. of votes cast by Shareholders at the General Meeting. Accordingly, the Notice of General Meeting set out in the Circular contains a special resolution to approve the Cancellation.

Furthermore, Rule 41 of the AIM Rules requires any AIM company that wishes the London Stock Exchange to cancel the admission of its shares to trading on AIM to notify shareholders and to separately inform the London Stock Exchange of its preferred Cancellation date at least 20 Business Days prior to such date. In accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules, the Directors have notified the London Stock Exchange of the Company’s intention, subject to the Resolutions being passed at the General Meeting, to cancel the Company’s admission of the Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM on 11 November 2026. Accordingly, if the Resolutions are passed, the Cancellation will become effective at 7.00 a.m. on 12 November 2026. If the Cancellation becomes effective, Canaccord Genuity will cease to be the Nominated Adviser and broker of the Company and the Company will no longer be required to comply with the AIM Rules.

9. Proposed Amendments to Articles of Association

It is proposed to make some minor amendments to the Current Articles. First, to remove the requirement that one- third of the Board retire each year, as this is common for listed, but not unlisted, companies; secondly, to remove all references to the London Stock Exchange and AIM which will cease to be relevant to the Company; and finally to incorporate into the New Articles the borrowing limits approved by shareholders at the general meeting of the Company held on 2 June 2021.

10. General Meeting

The General Meeting will be held at the offices of Howard Kennedy LLP, No.1 London Bridge, London SE1 9BG on 30 October 2026 at 9.30 a.m. at which the Resolutions will be proposed.

11. Options

The rights of certain individuals who hold options over Ordinary Shares will be unaffected by the proposed Cancellation.

12. Action to be taken in relation to the General Meeting

A Form of Proxy is enclosed with the Circular for use at the General Meeting and, for Shareholders holding shares in certified form, a reply-paid envelope for use in connection with the return of the Form of Proxy (in the UK only).

13. Irrevocable Undertakings

The following Shareholders have given irrevocable undertakings to vote (or, where applicable, procure voting) in favour of the Resolutions:

Name	Role	No. of Ordinary Shares held	Shareholding as a % of issued share capital
Adam Kaye1	Executive Director / Shareholder	7,588,387	8.23%

1 Mr Adam Kaye's direct interest in the Company, including certain Persons Closely Associated, is 8.23 per cent. of the Company's current issued share capital.

2 Mr Samuel Kaye's direct interest in the Company, is 7.57 per cent. of the Company's current issued share capital.

 3 Kropifko Properties Limited is a company in which Adam Kaye and Sam Kaye are both directors and 50.0 per cent. shareholders.

14. Recommendation

The Directors consider that the Cancellation is in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole and, therefore, unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of the Resolutions at the General Meeting as Adam Kaye, Charles Dorfman, Michael Rosehill and Joseph Lewis (being the Directors who are interested in Ordinary Shares) intend to vote, or procure the vote, in respect of, in aggregate, 43,616,063 Ordinary Shares to which they are beneficially entitled.

PART II

LETTER FROM THE INDEPENDENT dIRECTORS of everyman media group plc

Due to the Substantial Director Shareholders being on the Board, an Independent Committee was convened by the Board to independently consider the advantages and disadvantages of the Company being an AIM-quoted company. The conclusions of the Independent Directors considerations on remaining an AIM quoted company are published below. 

1.  Recommendation of the Independent Directors

The Independent Directors have concluded that it is in the best interests of Shareholders for the Company to proceed with posting of the Circular so that a General Meeting can be held to vote on the Cancellation. Further, the Independent Directors believe Shareholders should vote in favour of the Cancellation.

2. Reasons for the Independent Directors recommending the Cancellation

In reaching the decision to recommend to the Board and Shareholders that they vote in favour of the Cancellation, the Independent Directors believe the following reasons support their recommendation:

• A majority of Shareholders, by percentage of issued share capital, have expressed their support to being invested in an unlisted company rather than a publicly traded company;
• Despite being quoted Everyman has a concentrated shareholder base with approximately 59% of shares held by the Substantial Director Shareholders, their families and Directors. Further day to day liquidity in the Ordinary Shares is limited;
• The current share price and market capitalisation of the Company does not reflect the value of Everyman nor the underlying prospects of the business, which undermines a key reason for remaining listed;
• The AIM listing encourages the Board to take short-term financial and operational decisions rather than long-term strategic decisions which has had implications for the Company;
• Management time associated with the publicly listed company status will be better utilised on strategic activity to grow the business;
• The volatility in Everyman’s financial performance, driven by the film slate and investment required to grow the business, is unlikely to attract a fair value for the business in a listed environment due to public market investor requirements for consistent, forecastable future financial performance.

• Asset Match Private Market will provide Shareholders with an ongoing mechanism through which to trade Ordinary Shares following Cancellation, whilst enabling the Company to operate within a regulatory framework designed specifically for private company secondary market liquidity.
• The Company will offer a dedicated Shareholder portal available on Asset Match, accessible through email login, to serve as a central hub for updates, FAQs and a direct channel for communicating with the Company. This Shareholder portal will also host important reports, announcements and periodic events to keep Shareholders informed and engaged.
