GlobalData Plc (GlobalData; the Company)Commencement of Share Buyback Programme

Further to the announcement of 24 November 2025, the Company is pleased to confirm the commencement of its share buyback programme of up to a maximum consideration of £10 million, which is expected to be completed prior to the Company's next Annual General Meeting (the "Share Buyback Programme"). The purpose of the Share Buyback Programme is to return surplus capital to shareholders and reduce the Company's share capital. As such, all Ordinary Shares repurchased by the Company under the Share Buyback Programme will be cancelled.

The Share Buyback Programme will be effected under the authority granted by shareholders at the Company's 2025 Annual General Meeting to purchase a maximum of 80,653,410 Ordinary Shares, taking into account the Company's previous share buyback activity.

Any purchases of Ordinary Shares by the Company under the Share Buyback Programme will be carried out on the London Stock Exchange in compliance with the relevant conditions for trading, restrictions regarding time and volume, disclosure and reporting obligations, and price conditions. The Share Buyback Programme will be carried out in accordance with the parameters prescribed by the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014 (as it forms part of UK law pursuant to the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018) and Chapter 12 of the Financial Conduct Authority's Listing Rules. The Company may repurchase up to 25% of this average daily volume.

The maximum price paid per Ordinary Share will be no more than an amount equal to 105 per cent. of the average middle market quotations for an Ordinary Share, as derived from the London Stock Exchange Daily Official List, for the five business days immediately preceding the day on which the Ordinary Share is purchased. The minimum price that may be paid is £0.0001 per share.

GlobalData has entered into non-discretionary arrangements with Investec Bank plc ('Investec') to conduct the Share Buyback Programme on its behalf. 

The Company will make further regulatory announcements in respect of repurchases of Ordinary Shares as required by UK MAR and the AIM Rules.
