Share Buyback Programme and update on Disposal proceeds

Redcentric plc (AIM: RCN), a leading UK IT managed services provider, announces that it has approved a share buyback programme of ordinary shares of 0.1p in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares") for a total value of up to £1.5 million (the "Buyback Programme"). The Buyback Programme forms part of the Group's broader strategy to deliver shareholder value.

The Buyback Programme will be independently managed by Cavendish Capital Markets Limited, the Company's broker, which will make trading decisions independently and without the influence of the Company. Shares purchased under the Buyback Programme will continue to take place in open-market transactions and may be made from time to time depending on market conditions, share price and trading volumes.

The Buyback Programme is in accordance with the terms of the Company's authority to make market purchases of its own Ordinary Shares which was granted at the General Meeting held on 7 July 2026 (the "Authority"). The maximum price paid per Ordinary Share is to be no more than an amount equal to the higher of:

a)   105 per cent. of the average middle market closing price of an Ordinary Share for the five business days preceding the date of purchase; and

b)  the higher of the price of the last independent trade of an Ordinary Share and the highest current independent bid for an Ordinary Share.

The Buyback Programme will commence today and will continue until 30 September 2026 in accordance with the Authority.

Any Ordinary Shares acquired as a result of the Buyback Programme will be held in treasury and be announced to the market without delay.

Due to the limited liquidity in the issued Ordinary Shares, any Buyback of Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Authority on any trading day may represent a significant proportion of the daily trading volume in the Ordinary Shares on AIM and may exceed 25 per cent. of the average daily trading volume, being the limit laid down in Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 and, accordingly, the Company will not benefit from the exemption contained in this Article.

Update on Data Centre sale and FY26 results

As previously announced on 1 May 2026, the Company completed the sale of its Data Centres business to Stellanor Datacenters Group Limited for an estimated £122.85 million, of which an initial payment of £115.40 million was received on completion. The remaining balance, which is subject to the conclusion of typical post-completion financial reconciliations, is now anticipated to be settled by the end of September 2026.

Following final settlement, the Company expects to update the market on the re-introduction of a progressive dividend policy and potential further share buybacks.

The Company also intends to announce its audited results for the year ended 31 March 2026 in September 2026.

The Company confirms that it currently has no other unpublished price sensitive information other than what has been disclosed above.
