10 November 2026
Jet2 plc ("the Group" or "the Company")
Update on move to the Main Market
Jet2, the UK's leading provider of package holidays and third largest airline, today provides an update on the proposed admission of the Company's ordinary shares of 1.25p each (“Ordinary Shares”) to the equity shares (commercial companies) category ("ESCC") of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") and to trading on the main market for listed securities (the "Main Market") of London Stock Exchange plc ("Admission").
Further to the Company’s announcement on 3 September 2026, the Board of Directors of the Company now expects that Admission will take place and the Ordinary Shares will be cancelled from admission to trading on the AIM market of London Stock Exchange plc (“AIM”), at 8.00 a.m. on 8 December 2026. The last day of trading of the Ordinary Shares on AIM is therefore expected to be 7 December 2026.
The Company is not offering any new Ordinary Shares nor any other securities in connection with Admission. Accordingly, the Company hereby gives notice of the intended cancellation of admission to trading of its Ordinary Shares on AIM in accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules for Companies. Such cancellation is not subject to shareholder approval.
Admission remains subject to a number of conditions, including (i) approval by the FCA of a Prospectus; (ii) the Ordinary Shares being admitted by the FCA to the ESCC category of the Official List; and (iii) admission by London Stock Exchange plc to trading of the Ordinary Shares on the Main Market.
The Company anticipates inclusion in the next Quarterly Review of the FTSE 250 Index to be undertaken following Admission, although inclusion remains subject to review by FTSE Russell.
Shareholders should note that the Ordinary Shares will no longer be traded on AIM with effect from Admission and should take their own professional advice regarding the consequences of Admission.
Canaccord Genuity is acting as Sponsor exclusively to the Company and no one else in connection with the proposed Admission.
The Company will make further announcements as required in due course.
