("TMT" or the "Company")

Portfolio Update

TMT Investments Plc (AIM: TMT.L), the venture capital company investing in high-growth technology companies, is pleased to announce the following developments in the Company's portfolio since the publication of the Company's previous portfolio update on 19 October 2021.

Revaluations and Exits

· TMT's portfolio company Bolt, a leading international ride-hailing and food delivery company (www.bolt.eu), announced today that it has successfully raised €628 million (approx. US$711 million) in a new equity finance round led by Fidelity, Sequoia Capital and a number of other leading institutional investors (the "Bolt Fundraise"). The Bolt Fundraise takes Bolt's valuation to €7.4 billion and represents a substantial valuation uplift of approximately US$37.2 million (or 56%) in the value of TMT's investment in Bolt, compared to the previously announced valuation as of 30 June 2021.

· Workiz, a leading SaaS provider for the field service industry (www.workiz.com), completed a new equity funding round. The transaction represented a revaluation uplift of US$3.0 million (or 298%) in the fair value of TMT's investment, compared to the previous reported amount as of 31 December 2020.

· As announced on 1 November 2021, Volumetric Biotechnologies. Inc. ("Volumetric") was acquired by 3D Systems (NYSE:DDD) (the "Acquisition"). The Acquisition was structured as a US$45 million closing payment, with up to US$355 million of further consideration due on an earnout basis subject to the achievement of certain milestones linked to the attainment of significant steps in the demonstration of human applications (the "Contingent Consideration"), with all such payments comprising approximately half cash and half equity in 3D Systems. TMT received its part of the closing cash payment equal to US$0.32 million, plus 11,810 shares of 3D Systems, worth, as of 31 December 2021, approximately US$0.25 million. The initial part of the transaction (i.e. excluding any potential future Contingent Consideration) represented a revaluation uplift of US$0.36 million (or 177%) in the fair value of TMT's investment, compared to the previous reported amount as of 31 December 2020.

· Hinterview, a leading video recruitment software provider (www.hinterview.com), completed a new equity funding round. The transaction represented a revaluation uplift of US$0.2 million (or 35%) in the fair value of TMT's investment, compared to the previous reported amount as of 31 December 2020.

The above revaluations are expected to result in a combined increase in the Company's NAV equivalent to approximately US$1.29 per share (before adjustments for the Company's ongoing operating expenses, accrued bonus, potential future revaluations/impairments, and similar items).

Alexander Selegenev, Executive Director of TMT, commented:

"TMT's portfolio continues to register strong progress and we are delighted to announce today's update.

Bolt's €628 million funding round led by Sequoia Capital and Fidelity Management and Research Company LLC is its largest to date and takes its valuation to €7.4 billion. The size of the funding round and calibre of investors is a testament to Bolt's business model and growth trajectory. TMT is increasingly being recognised as a trailblazer in identifying promising technology companies at an earlier stage of their development. Bolt is one of TMT's four unicorn investments to date, alongside Pandadoc, Wrike (exited in 2019) and Pipedrive (exited in 2020). At the current valuation, the value of TMT's stake in Bolt is worth approximately US$103 million, compared to TMT's original investment of US$0.32 million in 2014.

Bolt has grown to become one of the world's leading mobility companies since TMT first invested in the company in 2014. Today, Bolt serves 100 million customers in 45 countries and over 400 cities across Europe and Africa, seeking to offer better alternatives for every use case including ride-hailing, shared cars and scooters, and food and grocery delivery.

We have been busy investing the proceeds of TMT's October 2021 US$19.3 million fund raise and are pleased to announce six new and two additional investments today. We continue to make additional investments into some of our best performing companies when suitable opportunities arise, in this case an additional US$2 million in Muncher Inc., a cloud kitchen and virtual food brand operator in Latin America (www.muncher.com.co), and an additional £2 million in 3S Money Club Limited, a UK-based online banking service focusing on international trade (www.3s.money).

With over 50 companies in its portfolio and an established 11-year track record as a publicly quoted company, TMT offers a diversified and liquid route to access some of the fastest and best growing technology companies globally.

We look forward to keeping shareholders updated on relevant developments."
