("S-Ventures", "Group" or the "Company")

WRAP Retail Offer for up to £100,000

S-Ventures PLC, the AQUIS listed investment company focused on high-growth opportunities, is pleased to announce a retail offer via the Winterflood Retail Access Platform ("WRAP") to raise up to £100,000 (the "WRAP Retail Offer") through the issue of new ordinary shares of 3.5 pence each in the capital of the Company ("Ordinary Shares"). Under the WRAP Retail Offer up to 2,857,142 new Ordinary Shares (the "WRAP Retail Offer Shares") will be made available at a price of 3.5 pence per share (the "Issue Price").

As part of the WRAP Retail Offer, the Company has agreed that one warrant for every one WRAP Retail Offer Shares will be granted (for no additional subscription cost), with each warrant entitling the holder to acquire one new Ordinary Share at an exercise price of 5 pence per share at any time up to 13 April 2028 (the "Warrants").

In addition to the WRAP Retail Offer and as announced at 14:52pm on 13 April 2028, the Company has undertaken a subscription of new Ordinary Shares (together with the WRAP Retail Offer Shares, the "New Ordinary Shares") and raised £300,000 (before expenses) at the Issue Price (the "Subscription"). The Issue Price of the WRAP Retail Offer is equal to the issue price of the Subscription.

A separate announcement has been made regarding the Subscription and its terms and sets out the reasons for the Subscription and use of proceeds. The proceeds of the WRAP Retail Offer will be utilised in the same way as the proceeds of the Subscription.

For the avoidance of doubt, the WRAP Retail Offer is not part of the Subscription. Completion of the WRAP Retail Offer is conditional, inter alia, upon the completion of the Subscription but completion of the Subscription is not conditional on the completion of the WRAP Retail Offer.

The WRAP Retail Offer and the Subscription are conditional on the New Ordinary Shares being admitted to trading on the Access segment of the Aquis Exchange ("Admission"). It is anticipated that Admission will become effective and that dealings in the New Ordinary Shares will commence on the Aquis Exchange, at 08.00 a.m. on 23 April 2026. It is expected that the Warrants will be admitted to CREST on or around 8 May 2026.

WRAP Retail Offer

The Company values its retail shareholder base and believes that it is appropriate to provide both new and existing retail shareholders in the United Kingdom the opportunity to participate in the WRAP Retail Offer.

Therefore, the Company is making the WRAP Retail Offer open to eligible investors in the United Kingdom, being new or existing shareholders of S-Ventures, following release of this announcement and through certain financial intermediaries.

A number of retail platforms are able to access the WRAP Retail Offer. Non-holders or existing shareholders wishing to subscribe for Retail Offer Shares should contact their broker or wealth manager who will confirm if they are participating in the Retail Offer.

Retail brokers wishing to participate in the Retail Offer on behalf of eligible retail investors, should contact WRAP@winterflood.com.

The Retail Offer is expected to close at 2pm on 17 April 2026. Eligible retail investors should note that financial intermediaries may have earlier closing times. The result of the Retail Offer is expected to be announced by the Company on or around 20 April 2026.

To be eligible to participate in the Retail Offer, applicants must be a customer of a participating intermediary including individuals aged 18 years or over, companies and other bodies corporate, partnerships, trusts, associations and other unincorporated organisations. 

There is a minimum subscription of £100 per investor under the Retail Offer. The terms and conditions on which investors subscribe will be provided by the relevant financial intermediaries including relevant commission or fee charges.

The Company reserves the right to amend the size and timings of the retail offer at its discretion. The Company reserves the right to scale back any order and to reject any application for subscription under the WRAP Retail Offer without giving any reason for such rejection.

It is vital to note that once an application for Retail Offer Shares has been made and accepted via an intermediary, it cannot be withdrawn.

The Retail Offer Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid, and have the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after their date of issue.

It is a term of the WRAP Retail Offer that the total value of the WRAP Retail Offer Shares available for subscription at the Issue Price does not exceed £100,000, or such size as agreed by the Company.

It should be noted that the Warrants do not guarantee any return and will expire if not exercised prior to their expiry date. If the share price of the Company does not exceed the exercise price of the Warrants prior to their expiry date then it is unlikely that any of the Warrants would be exercised.

Investors should make their own investigations into the merits of an investment in the Company. Nothing in this announcement amounts to a recommendation to invest in the Company or amounts to investment, taxation or legal advice.

It should be noted that a subscription for Ordinary Shares and investment in the Company carries a number of risks, including the risk that investors may lose their entire investment. Investors should take independent advice from a person experienced in advising on investment in securities such as the Ordinary Shares if they are in any doubt.

An investment in the Company will place capital at risk. The value of investments, and any income, can go down as well as up, so investors could get back less than the amount invested.

Neither past performance nor any forecasts should be considered a reliable indicator of future results.

The Retail Offer is offered in the United Kingdom under an exception from prohibitions on offers to the public pursuant to Schedule 1 (Part 1) of The Public Offers and Admission to Trading Regulations 2024 and under an exemption from the requirement to publish a prospectus under the FCA's Prospectus Rules: Admission to Trading on a Regulated Market sourcebook. The Retail Offer is not being made into any jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom.

No offering document, prospectus or admission document has been or will be prepared or submitted to be approved by the Financial Conduct Authority (or any other authority) in relation to the WRAP Retail Offer, and investors' commitments will be made solely on the basis of the information contained in this announcement and information that has been published by or on behalf of the Company prior to the date of this announcement by notification to a Regulatory Information Service in accordance with the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, the Market Abuse Regulation (EU Regulation No. 596/2014) ("MAR") and MAR as it forms part of United Kingdom law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (as amended).

UK Product Governance Requirements

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements of Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK MiFIR Product Governance Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the UK MiFIR Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Retail Offer Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that the Retail Offer Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in paragraphs 3.5 and 3.6 of COBS; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all permitted distribution channels (the "Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Retail Offer Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Retail Offer Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Retail Offer Shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Retail Offer.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of Chapters 9A or 10A respectively of COBS; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Retail Offer Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Retail Offer Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels
