Mirriad Advertising plc

Result of Placing

Publication of Circular

Clarification of Timetable

Mirriad Advertising plc ("Mirriad" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that, further to the Company's announcement released earlier today (the "Launch Announcement"), the Bookbuilding Process has closed and the Company has conditionally raised gross proceeds of £5.75 million through the placing of 191,666,667 Placing Shares at the Issue Price, being 3 pence per Placing Share.

In addition to the Placing, and as set out in the Launch Announcement, the Company proposes to raise up to approximately £2 million through the issue of up to 66,666,666 Open Offer Shares pursuant to an Open Offer to Qualifying Shareholders at the Issue Price on the basis of 5 Open Offer Shares for every 21 Existing Ordinary Shares held on the Record Date. Qualifying Shareholders subscribing for their full entitlement under the Open Offer may also request additional Open Offer Shares through the Excess Application Facility. Details of the Open Offer and the action to be taken by Qualifying Shareholders to subscribe for Ordinary Shares under the Open Offer will be set out in the Circular, containing a Notice of General Meeting, which will be sent to Shareholders later today. The Circular will also be available on the Company's website.

The Placing Shares, when issued, will represent in aggregate approximately 68.7 per cent. of the Company's existing issued share capital. The Issue Price of 3 pence per New Ordinary Share represents a discount of 4.8 per cent. to the closing mid-market price of 3.15 pence per Ordinary Share on 15 May 2023, being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of the Launch Announcement.

Neither the Placing nor the Open Offer are being underwritten.

The New Ordinary Shares, when issued, will be fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares, including the right to receive all dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid after the date of issue.

Application will be made in due course for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). Admission is expected to take place at 8.00 a.m. on 5 June 2023

The Fundraising is conditional upon, among other things, the Placing and Open Offer Agreement not being terminated in accordance with its terms and the Resolutions required to implement the Fundraising being duly passed by the shareholders of the Company at the General Meeting proposed to be held at the offices of Mirriad, 96 Great Suffolk Street, London SE1 0BE, at 11.00 a.m. on 2 June 2023 and Admission becoming effective.

Certain of the directors of the Company also intend to subscribe for new Ordinary Shares at the Issue Price through the Open Offer and Excess Application Facility.

Related Party Transaction

M&G Investment Management is a Substantial Shareholder of the Company as defined by the AIM Rules for Companies and its participation in the Placing constitutes a related party transaction under the AIM Rules. The Directors consider, having consulted with Panmure Gordon, acting in its capacity as the Company's nominated adviser, that the terms of such placing are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.

Clarification of Timetable for the Fundraising

Expected Timetable for the Fundraising

The "Ex-entitlement Date" is defined as the date on which the Existing Ordinary Shares are marked "ex" for entitlement under the Open Offer, being 17 May 2023

Information to Distributors

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within of Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Production Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK 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 Product Governance Requirements) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the New Ordinary Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that such securities are: (i) compatible with an end target market of investors who meet the criteria of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in paragraph 3 of the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all distribution channels (the "Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors (for the purposes of UK Product Governance Requirements) should note that: (a) the price of the New Ordinary Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; (b) the New Ordinary Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and (c) an investment in the New Ordinary Shares 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 the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing.  Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, the Joint Bookrunners will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of Chapter 9A or 10A respectively of the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; 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 New Ordinary Shares.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own Target Market Assessment in respect of the New Ordinary Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
