Zotefoams plc (LSE: ZTF) announces that it has allotted and issued 320,000 new ordinary shares of five pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares"), (the "New Shares").

The New Shares, which will rank pari passu with the existing Ordinary Shares in issue, have been allotted and issued to the Zotefoams plc 2007 Employee Benefit Trust (the "EBT") at the par value of five pence each in order to satisfy future exercises of awards under the Group's share incentive schemes.

The EBT will now hold a total of 470,135 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately one percent of the enlarged issued share capital of the Company.

Applications have been made to the Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA") for the admission of the New Shares to the premium listing segment of the Official List of the FCA and to London Stock Exchange plc for admission to trading of the New Shares on its main market for listed securities (together, "Admission"). Admission is expected to become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 19 May 2020.

Following Admission, the Company will have 48,621,234 Ordinary Shares in issue. There are no shares held in treasury. Therefore, following Admission the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 48,621,234 and this figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to notify their voting rights interest, or a change to that interest, in the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
