Retail Offering:

The Company is pleased to announce that a retail offer to existing shareholders will be shortly launched via the Winterford Retail Access Platform ("WRAP"), to raise up to an additional maximum of £25,000 (the "WRAP Retail Offer"), through the issue of up to 4,166,667 new Ordinary Shares, at a price of £0.006 per WRAP Retail Offer Share.

The proceeds of the WRAP Retail Offer will be utilised in the same way as the proceeds of the Placing. For the avoidance of doubt, the WRAP Retail Offer is not part of the Placing. Completion of the WRAP Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the completion of the Placing, but completion of the Placing is not conditional on the completion of the WRAP Retail Offer. The WRAP Retail Offer is conditional on the WRAP Retail Offer Shares being admitted to trading.

The Company values its shareholder base and believes that it is appropriate to provide its existing retail shareholders in the United Kingdom the opportunity to participate in its fundraising.

The WRAP Retail Offer is expected to close at 4:30 p.m. on 4 July 2024.

Admission and Total Voting Rights

Application will be made for the Placing Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing and the WRAP Retail Offer Shares pursuant to the WRAP Retail Offer to be admitted to trading on AIM and dealing is expected to commence on or around 9 July 2024 ("Admission"). A further announcement regarding the enlarged issued share capital for the purposes of the Financial Services Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules will be made following completion of the Placing and the WRAP Retail Offer.

Dr Peter Sargent, CEO, commented:

"I am pleased with the response we have had to this latest fundraising and hope that our existing shareholders will also consider participating through the WRAP Retail Offer.  I believe Physiomics has made significant changes over this last year which now positions the business for growth. FY2023/24 was a record year for the company for the highest ever total value of new contracts won.  As we start our new financial year, that momentum is continuing with the highest level of revenue already contracted.  This latest round of capital will provide us with the foundations to execute on that pipeline and allow for further revenue growth".
