Israeli Court Share Repurchase Approval and Launch of New $20 Million Ordinary Share Repurchase Program

The Ordinary Share repurchase program will be financed through existing cash resources and will begin on 20 December 2023

Tremor International Ltd. (AIM/NASDAQ: TRMR) ("Tremor" or the "Company"), a global leader in data-driven video and Connected TV ("CTV") advertising technology offering a unified platform that enables advertisers to optimize campaigns and media companies to maximize inventory yield, announces that its motion filed with the Israeli court to authorize the Company to repurchase a further $20 million of its Ordinary Shares from time-to-time through 18 June 2024 has been approved.

Following the Israeli court approval, the Company's Board of Directors approved the new $20 million share repurchase program under which Tremor is authorized to purchase up to $20 million of its Ordinary Shares.

The initiation of this further share repurchase program follows two recently completed programs in which the Company repurchased approximately $95 million of its Ordinary Shares, representing roughly 13% of shares outstanding, from March 1, 2022 through March 31, 2023.

The Company's Board of Directors also indicates that, should the Company's Ordinary Shares continue to trade at prices the Company believes reflect discounted valuation levels, and if the Company remains cash generative in the future, it will consider launching additional future share repurchase programs following the completion of the impending $20 million Ordinary Share repurchase program, and seek further approvals from the Israeli Court as required. The Company's Board of Directors believes repurchasing the Company's shares at what it believes reflects discounted valuation levels represents a strong investment opportunity that can generate long-term value for its shareholders.

About the Ordinary Share Repurchase Program

·    The Board has authorized Tremor to purchase up to $20 million of its Ordinary Shares on the AIM Market (the "Authority") and the repurchase program will be financed through existing cash reserves.

·    The repurchase program will begin on 20 December 2023 and will continue until the earlier of either 18 June 2024, or until it has been completed.

·    The repurchase program will be independently managed by Cavendish Capital Markets Limited, the Company's AIM broker, which will make trading decisions independently and without the influence of the Company.

·    The maximum price paid per Ordinary Share is to be no more than 105% of the average middle market closing price of an Ordinary Share on AIM for the five business days preceding the date of purchase.

·    Share repurchases will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations, and any Ordinary Shares acquired as a result of the repurchase program will be announced to the market without delay.

·    Any Ordinary Shares acquired as a result of the repurchase program will be reclassified as dormant shares under the Israeli Companies Law (without any rights attached thereon) and will be held in treasury.

·    The share repurchase program does not obligate Tremor to repurchase any particular amount of Ordinary Shares and the program may be suspended, modified, or discontinued at any time at the Company's discretion (if not in a close period), subject to applicable law.

·    Due to the limited liquidity in the issued Ordinary Shares, any repurchase 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% 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.
