Sitowise Group Plc issues 123,380 own shares in a directed issue

The number of Shares to be subscribed for in the share issue (the "Share Issue") corresponds to 0.35 per cent of shares in Sitowise.

The subscription of Shares shall be made and paid by 9 July 2021.

The subscribed Shares shall be subject to a transfer restriction for a period of 360 days from the completion of the Acquisition.

Therefore, there is a weighty financial reason for the directed Share Issue.
