Forgent plc("Forgent" or the "Company")Cost Base Update

Forgent plc (AIM: FORG), the technology-led energy transition company, is pleased to announce an update on its previously announced cost optimisation programme.

Further to the actions outlined in the Company's announcement of 24 October 2025, the Board confirms that these measures have now been fully implemented and extended, resulting in an annualised reduction of over 50% in the Group's recurring operating cost base compared to the full financial year to 31 December 2024.

As previously disclosed, the programme included the streamlining of operations across Spain, the UK and France, as well as Croatia and Ireland, delivering reductions in rent and associated establishment costs, together with a rationalisation of the workforce.

These actions, combined with continued financial discipline and prioritisation of core activities, have enabled the Company to transition to a materially leaner and more scalable operating structure.

The Board believes this materially reduced cost base provides a strong foundation for the execution of Forgent's strategy, supporting targeted capital allocation towards near-term exploration activities and the delivery of key gasification projects.

The Company remains focused on maintaining strict cost control as it progresses towards its operational milestones.
