GlobalData Plc

("GlobalData" or "the Company")

Results of Tender Offer and Total Voting Rights

GlobalData Plc (LSE: DATA.L), the leading data, insight and technology company, is pleased to announce the results of the Tender Offer, following the close of the Tender Offer at 1:00 pm (UK time) on 10 August 2026, details of which were set out in the Circular published by the Company on 10 July 2026.

Tender Offer

The maximum aggregate number of Shares that could be purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer was 35,294,117 Shares, representing approximately 4.73 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital as at the Tender Offer Record Date, at a Tender Price of 85 pence per Share.

Under the Tender Offer, valid applications to tender Shares were received in respect of 56,502,816 Shares. Accordingly, all valid tenders of Qualifying Shareholders' Guaranteed Entitlements have been accepted and will be purchased in full. Furthermore, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer as set out in the Circular, all valid tenders by Qualifying Shareholders in excess of their Guaranteed Entitlement have been scaled back pro rata to the total number of such Shares tendered, such that the total cost of Shares purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer does not exceed £30 million. As such, it is expected that a total of 35,294,117 Shares will be purchased under the Tender Offer at the Tender Price of 85 pence per Share.

The total value to be returned to Shareholders pursuant to the Tender Offer will therefore be approximately £30 million.

As set out in the Circular, it is expected that the Tender Offer will become unconditional on 12 August 2026.

It is anticipated that payment of the consideration due to Qualifying Shareholders whose tender applications under the Tender Offer have been accepted will be despatched (by cheque or by a CREST payment, as appropriate) on or around the 20^th August 2026.

As set out in the Circular, the Shares will be purchased by the Tender Offer Brokers pursuant to the Tender Offer and the Company will purchase such Shares from the Tender Offer Brokers.

Directors' participation

Mike Danson tendered 20,117,282 Shares in the Company as part of the Tender Offer (equating to approximately 4.43 per cent. of his holding). None of the other Directors who hold Shares in the Company participated in the Tender Offer.

Total Voting Rights

Subject to shares purchased and cancelled in accordance with the Company's Share Buyback Programme which commenced on 23 June 2026, following the completion of the Tender Offer and the cancellation of the 35,294,117 successfully tendered Shares due to take place on 13 August 2026, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 709,105,053 Shares. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury. Therefore, the total number of voting shares in GlobalData will be 709,105,053.

This figure may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.

Capitalised terms used in this announcement (unless otherwise defined) have the meanings set out in the announcement of the Company dated 10 July 2026 in respect of the Tender Offer.
