Rosebank Industries plc
(the "Company" or "Rosebank" and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group")
Intention to Move from AIM to the Main Market
Rosebank confirms that, as outlined in its 6 March 2026 Admission Document, it intends to apply to the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") and the London Stock Exchange plc (the "London Stock Exchange") for the admission of the entire issued ordinary share capital of Rosebank to the equity shares (commercial companies) (the "ESCC") category of the Official List of the FCA (the "Official List") and to trading on the main market for listed securities (the "Main Market") of the London Stock Exchange (together, "Admission").
The Directors believe that a move to the Main Market is the natural progression for Rosebank as the Group scales, positioning the Company for its next stage of development. In particular, the Directors believe that Admission will provide the Company with access to deeper pools of capital and a broader investor base, support potential inclusion in the FTSE UK Index Series, enhance liquidity in the Company's ordinary shares and increase Rosebank's corporate profile.
Rosebank does not intend to raise any funds or offer any new shares in connection with Admission or the publication of the related prospectus. Admission is expected to occur no earlier than 1 May 2026 and no later than 31 May 2026, at which time the Company's listing on AIM will be cancelled. Accordingly, the Company hereby gives notice of the intended cancellation of trading of its ordinary shares on AIM in accordance with Rule 41 of the AIM Rules for Companies.
Admission is subject to the approval by the FCA of the prospectus and the ordinary shares being admitted by the FCA to the Official List and by the London Stock Exchange to trading on the Main Market. Admission is not conditional upon Rosebank shareholder approval. Shareholders should note that the Company's ordinary shares will no longer be traded on AIM with effect from Admission and should consult their own professional advisers regarding the consequences of Admission.
Investec Bank plc is acting as Sponsor exclusively to the Company and no one else in connection with the proposed Admission.
Rosebank will make further announcements as necessary in due course.
