and

Notice of Results and AGM Date

Treatt, the manufacturer and supplier of a diverse and sustainable portfolio of natural extracts and ingredients for the beverage, flavour and fragrance industries, announces details of interim management appointments which will come into effect on 1 January 2026. This follows the announcement on 25 November 2025 of David Shannon's intention to step down from his role as Chief Executive on 31 December 2025, and the commencement of a formal process to identify and appoint his successor.

Manprit Randhawa, who joined Treatt in September 2025 as Interim CFO will broaden his remit, and has been appointed as Interim Group Managing Director. Manprit has 20 years' experience in finance, commercial operations and strategy, most recently as Chief Financial Officer of SkinBioTherapeutics plc. He will have responsibility for business performance and for leading Treatt's high quality management team during this time. Manprit will report to the Board and become a Director of the Company. David and Manprit, already working together closely, will complete a suitable handover during the remainder of this month.

Kelly Gordon, currently Group Finance Director and Investor Relations lead, will have overall operational responsibility for the Group's finance function and reporting requirements, and will report to Manprit, who will retain oversight of the Group's financial strategy.

Treatt Chair, Vijay Thakrar said:

"We're delighted that both Manprit and Kelly are stepping up to take these additional responsibilities.

"Manprit has made a strong contribution since joining in September. He has quickly grasped our key business issues and has earned the confidence of our employees, leadership team and the Board, positioning him well to take on the Interim Group MD role. Kelly has been leading the finance function since becoming Group FD and is well known to Treatt's investors from her IR role in recent years.

"We are confident that this new interim management structure, with Manprit working alongside our strong leadership team, will steward the business well until a new CEO is in place."
