Virgin Money UK PLC (formerly CYBG) change of name
Following a Board Meeting held yesterday, the Company is pleased to announce that its change of name from CYBG PLC to Virgin Money UK PLC ("the Group") was effective on 30 October 2019.
As a result, the Group confirms that as of 31 October 2019 its shares will trade under its new name of Virgin Money UK PLC and its London Stock Exchange symbol will change to VMUK. The ISIN and SEDOL for the Group's shares remain unchanged and are GB00BD6GN030 and BD6GN03 respectively.
The Group is in the process of registering its change of foreign company name from CYBG PLC to Virgin Money UK PLC with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). The Group will make an Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) announcement confirming its change of name, ASX code and new ISIN once the name has been successfully registered with ASIC, which is expected in the next two weeks.

The Group's registered office will be Jubilee House, Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE3 4PL.
This is another significant milestone in the Group's integration programme. The Group will update further on the progress made over the past twelve months and the exciting opportunities ahead at our full year results on 28 November 2019.
