Further to the announcement of the Tender Offer on 22 July 2025, details of which are set out in the Circular, and following the approval of the Tender Offer by Shareholders at a general meeting of the Company held at 10am on 6 August 2025, the closing of the Tender Offer at 1pm on 7 August 2025, and further to the announcement released earlier today that the Tender Offer was heavily oversubscribed, the Company announces the results of the Tender Offer. The Tender Price was 60 pence per Ordinary Share.

The Company offered to purchase up to a maximum of 20,000,000 Ordinary Shares under the Tender Offer. In total, valid applications to tender shares were received in respect of 32,170,346 Ordinary Shares. Accordingly, all valid tenders of Shareholders' Basic Entitlements have been accepted and will be purchased in full. Additionally, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer as set out in the Circular, all Excess Tenders have been scaled back pro rata to the total number of such Ordinary Shares tendered in excess of the Basic Entitlement. If any fractions arose from the scaling-down as stated above, the number of Ordinary Shares tendered by each Shareholder have been rounded down to the nearest whole Ordinary Share. As such, a total of 20,000,000 Ordinary Shares will be purchased under the Tender Offer and subsequently cancelled on 13 August 2025.

The total value to be returned to Shareholders pursuant to the Tender Offer will therefore be £12 million. Payment of the consideration due to Shareholders whose tender applications under the Tender Offer have been accepted will be despatched (by cheque or by CREST payment, as appropriate) on or before 19 August 2025.

Rule 2.9 Statement and Total Voting Rights

In accordance with Rule 2.9 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers, Anexo confirms that following the cancellation of the 20,000,000 Ordinary Shares tendered under the Tender Offer on 13 August 2025, the Company's issued share capital will consist of 97,990,294 Ordinary Shares of £0.0005, each carrying one vote per share.

Therefore, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 97,990,294 Ordinary Shares. There will be no shares held in Treasury. The above figure can be used by shareholders as the denominator for calculations by which to determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

The International Securities Identification Number for Anexo's Ordinary Shares is GB00BF2G3L29.

Capitalised terms used in this announcement shall, unless otherwise defined, have the same meanings as set out in the Tender Offer announcement.

Disclosure requirements of the Takeover Code

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Code, any person who is interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the offer period and, if later, following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the 10th business day following the commencement of the offer period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the 10th business day following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Code, any person who is, or becomes, interested in 1% or more of any class of relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s), save to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 pm (London time) on the business day following the date of the relevant dealing.

If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).

Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Takeover Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the offer period commenced and when any offeror was first identified.
