CVS Group plc

("CVS" or the "Company")

Block Listing Application

CVS, one of the UK's leading providers of integrated veterinary services, announces that an application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the admission of 350,000 of its ordinary shares of 0.2p each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to trading on AIM.

The Ordinary Shares will be reserved under a block listing and will be issued in connection with the exercise of option awards under the terms of the Company's 2018 SAYE Plan which was approved by shareholders in general meeting on 30 November 2017 (the "SAYE Plan"). It is expected that the majority of the shares reserved under the block listing will satisfy the exercise of options in connection with the next SAYE Plan maturity on 1 January 2022.

When issued, the Ordinary Shares under the block listing will rank pari passu with the Company's existing issued Ordinary Shares. It is anticipated that the block listed shares will be admitted on 30 December 2021.
