Sivota Proposes Delisting from the London Stock Exchange Sivota PLC announced its intention to cancel the admission of its ordinary shares to trading on the London Stock Exchange (the ‘Delisting’). Background and Rationale for Delisting Since admission, Sivota has operated as a public company with the aim of deploying growth capital into high-potential businesses and delivering shareholder value through strategic investment and operational support. However, after extensive review and consideration, the Board has concluded that the Company's continued listing is no longer in the best interests of the business or its shareholders, for the following key reasons: 1. Increased Difficulty in Raising Capital from Public Markets: The Company has found it increasingly challenging to raise meaningful investment capital via the public markets. Low liquidity, limited institutional appetite, and broader market conditions have constrained the Company's ability pursue new investment opportunities at the pace originally envisaged. 2. Material Changes in the Geopolitical and Economic Environment: The geopolitical landscape and macroeconomic conditions have changed significantly since the Company's investment strategy was formulated and its original listing. These shifts have increased uncertainty and altered the operational dynamics within Sivota's target market. As a company listed on the Equity Shares (Transition) category, the Company is not required to obtain the approval of its shareholders for the Delisting but is required under UK Listing Rule 21.2.17 to give at least 20 business days' notice of the intended cancellation. Accordingly, the Company has requested that: (i) the FCA cancel the listing of the Shares on the Official List of the FCA; and (ii) the London Stock Exchange cancels the admission to trading of the Shares on the Main Market for listed securities of the London Stock Exchange. It is anticipated that the Delisting will become effective from 8:00 a.m. (London time) on 19 August 2025. Investors holding Shares following the Delisting will remain shareholders of the Company and continue to be entitled to exercise all the rights attaching to the Shares. The Company will, at least in the short term, remain a public limited company (and so, for example, will be required to hold an AGM in each year). The provisions of the Takeover Code will continue to apply to the Company. Board Change • Jul 08
