Onward Opportunities Limited (TIDM: ONWD), the investment company targeting opportunities in UK smaller companies, is pleased to announce the publication of a prospectus (the "Prospectus") in relation to the proposed admission of its ordinary shares (the "Ordinary Shares") to listing on the closed-ended investment funds segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") and to trading on the Main Market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange (together, "Admission").

It is expected that: (i) Admission will take place at 8.00 a.m. on 16 April 2026; and (ii) the Ordinary Shares will be cancelled from trading on AIM at 8.00 a.m. on 16 April 2026. The last day of trading of the Ordinary Shares on AIM is therefore expected to be 15 April 2026.

Onward Opportunities is not offering any new Ordinary Shares nor any other securities in connection with the proposed Admission. Following Admission, the Ordinary Shares will continue to be registered with their existing ISIN of GG00BMZR1514 and the TIDM will remain ONWD.

The Company's shareholders should consult their own professional advisers regarding the consequences of Admission for them.
