Bruton Limited (BRUT) – Completion of a Private Placement of USD 50 million

Hamilton, Bermuda, 3 February 2026

Bruton Limited (Euronext Growth Oslo: BRUT) (the “Company”) hereby refers to its press release on 2 February 2026 regarding a private placement (the “Private Placement”) of approximately USD 50 million in new Norwegian Depository Receipts (“NDRs”) representing new underlying common shares on a one-to-one basis (the “Private Placement Shares”).
 
The Private Placement has now been completed and the Company has allocated 9,523,810 Private Placement Shares at USD 5.25 per share (the “Offer Price”).
 
Notice of conditional allocation and payment instructions to the applicants in the Private Placement will be communicated by the Managers (as defined below) on or about 3 February 2026. Delivery of the Private Placement Shares allocated in the Private Placement is expected to be settled by delivery versus payment ("DVP"), expected on or about 5 February 2026.
 
The completion of the Private Placement is subject to customary conditions, including the issuance of the Private Placement Shares, and the due registration of the Private Placement Shares in Euronext VPS as NDRs.
 
The NDRs issued for the Private Placement Shares are not tradeable on Euronext Growth Oslo before the share capital increase pertaining to the Private Placement Shares has been completed and the NDRs have been registered in the Norwegian Central Securities Depository (Euronext Securities Oslo or the “VPS”). In line with section 3.11.5 of Rule Book II for issuers on Euronext Growth Oslo, the Company will announce when the share capital increase has been completed. Applicants in the Private Placement will be notified when the NDRs have been registered in Euronext Securities Oslo.
 
The Board has carefully considered the structure of the equity raise in light of the applicable rules and regulations concerning equal treatment. The Board is of the view that it will be in the common interest of the Company and its shareholders to raise equity through a private placement, in particular because the Private Placement enables the Company to secure equity financing to accommodate the Company's funding requirements. Further, a private placement will reduce execution and completion risk, as it enables the Company to raise equity efficiently and in a timely manner, with a lower discount to the current trading price, at a lower cost and with a significantly reduced completion risk compared to a rights issue. It has also been taken into consideration that the Private Placement is based on a publicly announced accelerated bookbuilding process.
