Director's Dealings / PDMR Shareholding

 

Tooru, an AIM listed company focused on the branded health and wellness sector, announces that it has been informed by Scott Livingston, the Company's CEO, that between 27 February 2026 and 04 March 2026 he acquired a total of 10,160,333 (including 1,513,838 into SIPP) ordinary shares of 0.01p each (the "Ordinary Shares") in the Company at an average price of 0.2422p per Ordinary Share.

 

Following these purchases, Scott Livingston now has a direct interest in 194,053,933 Ordinary Shares, representing 8.86 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital.

 

Concert Party

 

As disclosed in the Company's circular dated 8 May 2025 for the purposes of the City Code on Takeovers and mergers (the "Takeover Code") S-Ventures plc and Scott Livingston and his close relatives, who at the time held in aggregate an interest in 35.14 per cent.  of the Company's then issued share capital, were deemed to be acting in concert. 

 

As a result of the Placing, Conversion and WRAP Retail Offer the results of which were announced on 11 February 2026, the aggregated interest of the Concert Party was diluted to 32.44 per cent.

 

Pursuant to Note 11 to Rule 9.1 of the Takeover Code, following dilution of the interest of the Concert Party, and subject to certain conditions and limitations, a subsequent acquisition of an interest in further shares without incurring an obligation to make an offer under Rule 9 is permissible.

 

Scott Livingston has relied on Note 11 to Rule 9.1 dispensation when acquiring the Ordinary Shares as set out above. Following this purchase the Concert Party is interested in aggregate in 32.90 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital.
