Result of Placing

Argentex Group PLC (AIM: AGFX) ("Argentex"), the provider of currency management and payment solutions to international institutions and corporates, announces that, further to the announcement made at 7.01 a.m. today (the "Launch Announcement"), it has concluded the BookBuild for its Placing to raise gross proceeds of approximately £3.25m (before expenses) through the placing of 7,217,175 Placing Shares at the Placing Price of 45 pence per share.

Singer Capital Markets acted as sole bookrunner in connection with the Placing.  Capitalised terms in this announcement have the same meaning as in the Launch Announcement unless otherwise indicated.

As previously announced, a separate announcement launching the Retail Offer and its terms will be made at 7:00 a.m. on 3 May 2024.

Jim Ormonde, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"Following the completion of our strategic review, and with the benefit of the additional funding secured today, I am confident that Argentex is well-positioned to take advantage of the multiple growth opportunities identified as we reposition the business as a true cross border financial solutions expert.

I am excited to lead Argentex in the next stage of its development as we accelerate the implementation of our strategic plan to transform the business. In doing so, we will expand our addressable market, reduce volatility and drive profitable growth."

Related Party Transactions

The Directors (the "Participating Directors") have participated in the Placing and have subscribed for Placing Shares at the Placing Price as set out below:

Henry Beckwith, Non-Executive Director of Argentex, is a director of Pacific Investment Management Ltd ("Pacific Investment Management") and leads their financial services and asset management division. Pacific Investment Management is a substantial shareholder of the Company as defined in the AIM Rules. Pacific Investment Management has subscribed for, in aggregate, 5,347,732 Placing Shares at the Placing Price.

The subscriptions by the Participating Directors and Pacific Investment Management constitute related party transactions under AIM Rule 13.

Due to their participation in the Placing, the Directors are not considered to be independent of the Placing for the purposes of AIM Rule 13. In the absence of an independent director, Singer Capital Markets Advisory LLP, as the Company's nominated adviser, considers that the terms of the Participating Directors and Pacific Investment Management participation in the Placing are fair and reasonable insofar as the Company's shareholders are concerned.

Admission

Application will be made for the admission of 7,217,175 Placing Shares to trading on AIM. It is expected that that Admission of the Placing Shares will become effective at 8.00 a.m. on 13 May 2024. The Placing 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

A further announcement will be made in relation to total voting rights in the Company's share capital following the completion of the Retail Offer, when the total number of New Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the Placing and the Retail Offer will be known.

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

Information to Distributors

The distribution of this Announcement and the offering of the Placing Shares in certain jurisdictions may be restricted by law. No action has been taken by the Company, Singer Capital Markets, SCM Advisory or any of its affiliates that would permit an offering of the Placing Shares or possession or distribution of this Announcement or any other offering or publicity material relating to the Placing Shares in any jurisdiction where action for that purpose is required.

UK Product Governance Requirements

Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements contained within Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK Product Governance Rules"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the UK Product Governance Rules) may otherwise have with respect thereto, the Placing Shares have been subject to a product approval process, which has determined that such Placing Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined in paragraphs 3.5 and 3.6 of COBS; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all permitted distribution channels (the "UK Target Market Assessment"). Notwithstanding the UK Target Market Assessment, distributors should note that: the price of the Placing Shares may decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Placing Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the Placing Shares is 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 UK 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 UK Target Market Assessment, Singer Capital Markets will only procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible counterparties.

For the avoidance of doubt, the UK Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of COBS 9A and COBS 10A, respectively; 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 Placing Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Placing Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
