Result of Placing and Retail Offer

 

Argentex Group PLC (AIM: AGFX) ("Argentex"), the provider of currency
management and payment solutions to international institutions and corporates,
announces that, further to its announcements on 2 and 3 May 2024 (the
"Fundraising Announcements"), it has concluded a retail offer via the
Bookbuild Platform (the "Retail Offer"). Pursuant to the Placing and Retail
Offer, the Company has resolved to issue a total of 7,221,508 new Ordinary
Shares at the Issue Price raising gross proceeds of £3.25m (the "Fundraising
Shares").

Capitalised terms in this announcement have the same meaning as in the
Fundraising Announcements unless otherwise indicated.

Admission

The Company has made application for the admission of the Fundraising Shares
to trading on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission of the
Fundraising Shares will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 13 May 2024. The
Fundraising Shares, when issued, will be fully paid and will rank pari passu
in all respects with each other and with the existing Ordinary Shares of the
Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive all dividends and
other distributions declared, made or paid after the date of issue.

Total Voting Rights

Following Admission, the Company's issued ordinary share capital will consist
of 120,429,055 Ordinary Shares with one voting right each. The Company does
not hold any Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, from Admission the total
number of Ordinary Shares and voting rights in the Company will be
120,429,055. With effect from Admission, this figure may be used by
Shareholders in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which
they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a
change to their interest in, the Company under the FCA's Disclosure Guidance
and Transparency Rules.

The person responsible for arranging the release of this Announcement on
behalf of the Company is Jim Ormonde, Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
