Result of Tender Offer and Total Voting Rights

 

Dewhurst Group plc, the global manufacturer and supplier of quality components to the lift, transport and keypad industries, announces the results of the Tender Offer set out in the circular published by the Company on 5 August (the "Circular"), which closed at 1.00 p.m. on 28 August 2025. The Tender Price was £6.65 per 'A' Share and £9.00 per Ordinary Share.

The Company offered to purchase up to a maximum of 3,739,897 Shares. As set out in the Circular, under the Basic Entitlement, the Company offered to repurchase 3,007,518 'A' Shares and 555,555 Ordinary Shares. In total, 1,869,456 'A' Shares and 517,802 Ordinary Shares were validly tendered under the Tender Offer through Qualifying Shareholders' Basic Entitlements as well as excess applications received in respect of 275,326 'A' Shares and 452,905 Ordinary Shares. All valid tenders were satisfied in full pursuant to their Basic Entitlement (rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares) and excess applications were also satisfied in full, with 275,326 'A' Shares and 452,905 Ordinary Share accepted pursuant to excess tenders.

It is expected that cheques will be despatched and CREST accounts will be credited with proceeds in respect of successfully tendered shares by 10 September 2025.

Of the 2,144,782 'A' Shares and 970,707 Ordinary Shares validly tendered under the Tender Offer 2,144,782 'A' Shares and 920,707 Ordinary Shares will be repurchased by the Company under the Repurchase Agreement and cancelled, with the balance of 50,000 Ordinary Shares to be repurchased by the Company under the Repurchase Agreement and held in treasury.

The issued share capital of the Company following the purchase will be 2,280,736 'A' Shares and 2,388,493 Ordinary Shares (with 50,000 Ordinary Shares held in treasury). The total voting rights in the Company following the purchase and cancellation will be 2,338,493.

The figures of 2,280,736 'A' Shares and 2,338,493 Ordinary Shares may be used by Shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
