As a result, Candy Ventures' interest in Ordinary Shares will increase to 2,235,102, representing approximately 12.3 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital ("ISC"). Nicholas Candy, a 90 per cent. shareholder in Candy Ventures, also has an interest in a further 135,000 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 0.7 per cent of the Company's ISC, taking his direct and indirect interest in Ordinary Shares to 2,370,102 (approximately 13.0 per cent. of the Company's ISC). Candy Ventures is a person closely associated ("PCA") with Steven Smith, a non-executive director of the Company (who is a person discharging managerial responsibilities ("PDMR")), by virtue of Steven Smith's shareholding in, and directorship of, Candy Ventures.  Following this exercise, Candy Ventures do not hold any further warrants to subscribe for Ordinary Shares.

An application has been made for the admission of the new Ordinary Shares to trading on AIM ("Admission"), with Admission expected to become effective at 8 a.m. on 3 August 2025.

Following Admission, the issued ordinary share capital of the Company will comprise 18,181,914 Ordinary Shares with one voting right per share. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of Ordinary Shares and voting rights in the Company is 18,181,914. This figure may be used by shareholders 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.

The FCA notification in respect of the above, made in accordance with the requirements of the UK Market Abuse Regulation, is appended below.
