Block Admission

CVS (AIM: "CVSG"), one of the UK's leading providers of integrated veterinary services for small and large animals, announces that an application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for a block admission of 486,832 ordinary shares of 0.2 pence each (the "New Ordinary Shares") to be admitted to AIM in connection with the Company's 2013/2016 Save as You Earn scheme (the "Scheme"). These New Ordinary Shares may be issued from time to time pursuant to the exercise of options by employees participating in the Scheme.

When issued, the New Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the existing ordinary shares of the Company. Admission of the New Ordinary Shares is expected to take place on 23 December 2016.

As at today, there are 63,412,323 ordinary shares of 0.2 pence each in issue. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury. The Company will notify on a monthly basis when there are changes to the issued share capital of the Company, and these monthly figures may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculation by which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in their interest in, the share capital of the Company.

The Company also announces that the Company's 2012/2015 Save as You Earn scheme has closed and, as a result, the block listing associated with it has been cancelled. The Company has no other block listings.
