RESULTS OF GENERAL MEETING

Further to the announcement on 21 October 2022 by Essentra plc (the "Company") regarding the publication of a shareholder circular relating to the proposed disposal of Essentra Filter Holdings Limited to Frank Acquisition Four Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of Centaury Management Limited (the "Disposal"), the Company is pleased to announce that at a general meeting held earlier today, an ordinary resolution to approve the Disposal was duly passed by the Company's shareholders. The results of the vote are shown in the table below and will also be available on the Company's website.

The number of Ordinary Shares in issue at the close of business on 7 November 2022 (excluding 897,944 Treasury Shares) was 301,692,764.

Any vote that gave the Chairman discretion has been included in the 'For' votes. A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted towards the votes cast 'For' or 'Against' a resolution. The resolution will shortly be available for inspection at the National Storage Mechanism document viewing facility at: https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.

The Board expects that, subject to the satisfaction and/or waiver (where applicable) of the other conditions precedent to the Disposal, completion will occur no later than 31 January 2023.
