Result of Buy-Back and total voting rights

Total voting rights

Following completion of the Buyback, the Company has 39,449,919 Ordinary Shares in issue, of which 2,200,000 Ordinary Shares are held in treasury. The total number of voting rights in the Company is therefore 37,249,919 Ordinary Shares.
