IPO Update

Further to the announcement made on 19 May 2025, iFOREX announces that its proposed initial public offering ("IPO") on the London Stock Exchange, which was expected to occur in late June, will be briefly delayed.

A routine thematic compliance inspection commenced earlier this year in the BVI, which was disclosed in the Company's Registration Document, requires additional time to enable finalisation ahead of the IPO. The inspection process is close to completion and the Company anticipates only a short delay to the IPO timetable.

The Company is delighted with the strong investor interest in the IPO. Based on firm orders received to date, the institutional offer is heavily oversubscribed at the top of the indicative valuation range.

This announcement may include statements that are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements". These forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, including the terms "believes", "estimates", "plans", "projects", "targets, "anticipates", "expects", "intends", "may", "will", "forecast" or "should" or, in each case, their negative or other variations or comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy, plans, objectives, goals, future events or intentions. These statements reflect beliefs of the directors of iFOREX Financial Trading Holdings Ltd  (the "Directors") (including based on their expectations arising from pursuit of the Group's strategy) as well as assumptions made by the Directors and information currently available to the Group. Although the Directors consider that these beliefs and assumptions are reasonable, by their nature, forward-looking statements reflect the Group's current view with respect to future events and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause the Group's actual financial position, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, prospects, growth or strategies to be materially different from any future such metric expressed or implied by such statements. Past performance cannot be relied upon as a guide to future performance and should not be taken as a representation that trends or activities underlying past performance will continue in the future. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Forward-looking statements may and often do differ materially from actual results. No representation is made that any of these statements or forecasts will come to pass or that any forecast results will be achieved.

In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events in the forward-looking statements may not occur or the Company's or the Group's actual results, performance or achievements might be materially different from the expected results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Each of Shore Capital, Shore Capital Stockbrokers Limited, the Company or any member of the Group, or any of such person's affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees, agents or advisers expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to update, review or revise any such forward-looking statement or any other information contained in this announcement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except to the extent required by applicable law. You are therefore cautioned not to place any undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. In addition, even if the results of operations, financial condition and liquidity of the Group, and the development of the industry in which the Group operates are consistent with the forward-looking statements set out in this announcement, those results or developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent periods. No statement in this announcement is intended to be a profit forecast.
