Commencement of Share Buyback Programme

The Board of Develop North PLC today announces the commencement of a share buyback programme (the 'programme') whereby the Company will repurchase its Ordinary Shares (the 'shares') for up to a maximum consideration of GBP500k. All shares purchased under this programme will be held in treasury.

The Company has entered into a non-discretionary agreement with Cavendish Capital Markets Limited, acting as principal to conduct the programme and to repurchase shares on the Company's behalf and to make trading decisions under the programme independently of the Company in accordance with agreed parameters.

The programme will commence today, 20 November 2023, and will end on 31 December 2023. The programme is subject to customary early termination rights.

The programme will at all times be conducted in accordance with (and within the parameters prescribed by the Company's general authority to repurchase shares (which authorised the repurchase of a maximum of 4,035,917 shares, being approximately 14.99% of the Company's issued share capital) as approved by shareholders at the Company's AGM on 27 April 2023.

Due to the limited liquidity in the shares, a buyback of shares pursuant to the above authority on any given trading day may represent all or a significant proportion of the daily trading volume in the shares and could exceed 25% of the average daily trading volume and, accordingly, the Company will not benefit from the exemption contained in Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No. 596/2014 as adopted into UK law by the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.
