Audit Committee Chair

The Company announces that Dermot Mathias has stepped down from his role as
Chair of the Audit Committee with effect from 25 February 2026. Dermot has
also confirmed that he will not stand for re-election as an Independent
Non-Executive Director at the forthcoming AGM on 21 May 2026.

The Board is pleased to confirm that Dermot will remain on the Board and as a
member of the Audit Committee until the AGM, providing valuable continuity and
support to the Committee during this transitional period.

The Board wishes to take the opportunity to publicly extend its thanks to
Dermot for his significant contribution to the Company since joining the Board
in 2018 and wishes him the very best for the future.

In accordance with the Board's previously approved succession plans, Dr. Erika
Schraner, who was appointed to the Board in November 2019 and has served as
Chair of the Nomination Committee since November 2020, has been appointed as
Chair of the Audit Committee with effect from 25 February 2026. Erika brings
extensive experience and strong leadership to the Audit Committee.

Mike Liston, Non-Executive Chairman of JTC PLC, commented:

"On behalf of the Board, I would like to express our sincere thanks to Dermot
for his wisdom, commitment and outstanding service over many years. Dermot has
played a pivotal role in guiding the Company through a period of substantial
growth, from IPO to the proposed acquisition recently approved by
Shareholders. We are grateful that Dermot will remain with us until the
forthcoming AGM, providing continuity and support to the Board, Erika and the
Audit Committee. We wish him well for the future.

We are also delighted that Erika has accepted the appointment as Chair of the
Audit Committee. Erika's deep knowledge of the Company and her breadth of
experience will provide strong leadership to the Committee, and we look
forward to her further contributions in this important role."
