Premier Technical Services Group PLC

("PTSG" or the "Company")

Issue of Equity and Total Voting Rights

PTSG, the niche specialist services provider, announces that on 13 September 2017 the Company will issue 510,386 ordinary shares of 1 penny each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") to the vendors of UK Dry Risers Ltd ("UKDR"), the dry risers business acquired in July 2016, in settlement of the deferred consideration for the acquisition.

Under the terms of the SPA the deferred consideration of £0.9m was to be paid solely in cash, however, the vendors requested that it be paid in shares, showing their confidence in the Group. The share issuance reflects an effective price per share of 168.5p.

In relation to the above, an application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for 510,386 new ordinary shares, which rank pari passu with the existing ordinary shares, to be admitted to trading on AIM on or around 13 September 2017.

Following this issue and allotment, the Company's issued share capital comprises of 104,521,660 Ordinary Shares. The Company does not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. The figure of 104,521,660 should 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 of their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

Paul Teasdale, CEO of PTSG, said:

"We warmly welcome Mike and Julie Charlton as shareholders of PTSG following their request that the deferred consideration be paid in shares. The business has performed well with the full deferred consideration being paid following the business achieving the stretching milestones set at the time of the acquisition."
