Cazoo Receives Non-Compliance Notice from NYSE Regarding 20-F Filing Delinquency Cazoo Group Ltd. (“Cazoo” or “the Company”) announced receipt of a written notice (the “Notice”) from the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on May 16, 2024 stating that the Company is not in compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards set in Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, which requires timely filing of all required periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), because of the Company’s failure to timely file its Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 20-F”). As previously disclosed on May 1, 2024, Cazoo was unable to file its 2023 Form 20-F on or before the prescribed filing date without unreasonable effort or expense. As a result of the significant amount of time devoted by management to pursue strategic initiatives, and the Company’s pivot to the marketplace model, which has also required a dedication of the Company’s limited personnel and resources, and because of our liquidity concerns whereby we would not be able to demonstrate our ability to continue as a going concern in the medium- to long-term, the Company was unable to complete the preparation and review of its financial statements and disclosures for the 2023 Form 20-F. Moreover, as a result of the foregoing, the Company does not currently intend to file the 2023 Form 20-F. In accordance with Section 802.01E of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, the NYSE will closely monitor the status of the Company’s late filing and related public disclosures for up to six months from the date of the filing delinquency (the “Initial Cure Period”). The Company’s Class A ordinary shares will continue to trade on the NYSE during the Initial Cure Period, subject to the Company’s compliance with other continued listing requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if circumstances warrant, the NYSE may commence delisting proceedings at any time. Announcement • May 03
