Application has been made for the 182,393 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM and it is expected that Admission will occur on or around 8 November 2023.

Total Voting Rights

Upon Admission, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 55,916,946 Ordinary Shares with one voting right each. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of Ordinary Shares and voting rights in the Company will be 55,916,946. With effect from Admission, this figure may be used by shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
