Transaction in own shares

Ascential plc ("Ascential" or the "Company"), announces that, in accordance
with the terms of its share buyback programme announced on 4 April 2024
("Share Buyback Programme") and subsequently updated, as highlighted in the
Company's announcement on 20 May 2024, the Company purchased the following
number of its Ordinary 1.7p Shares ("Ordinary Shares") through Numis
Securities Limited ("Deutsche Numis").

 Date of purchase:                                    20/06/2024
 Aggregate number of Ordinary Shares purchased:       125,982
 Lowest price paid per share (GBp):                                        336.50
 Highest price paid per share (GBp):                                       339.50
 Volume weighted average price paid per share (GBp):  337.96

The purchased shares will be cancelled.

Following the purchase of these shares, the remaining number of Ordinary
Shares in issue will be 204,588,736 with no shares held in treasury. The total
voting rights in the Company will therefore be 204,588,736. This figure may
be used by shareholders 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.
