Appointment of Independent Non-Executive Director

Altitude Group plc (AIM: ALT), a technology and services provider specialising
in end-to-end solutions for the branded merchandise and promotional products
industry, is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr Bob Wigley as an
Independent Non-Executive Director of the Company, with effect from 5 March
2026.

Bob has served as founding Chairman of UK Finance since its formation in 2017,
the trade body representing over 300 banking and finance firms in the United
Kingdom. He was previously EMEA Chairman of Merrill Lynch, and a member of the
Court of the Bank of England. He is the author of Born Digital: The Story of a
Distracted Generation (2021), a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered
Accountants in England and Wales, an Honorary Professor at King's College
London, a Visiting Fellow of Oxford University's Said Business School, and an
Honorary Fellow of Cambridge Judge Business School.

Bob joins Altitude having led the UK Finance report Unlocking the Power of
Securities Tokenisation, produced in conjunction with Oliver Wyman, and with
extensive board-level experience in market infrastructures including Euroclear
and LCH.Clearnet. He will strengthen and validate the Company's strategy and
provide independent oversight as Altitude continues to enhance value and
efficiency across the AIM Smarter platform.

Alexander Brennan, Executive Chair of Altitude, commented: "Bob has highly
relevant experience in payment processing and tokenisation, and a deep
understanding of the digital impact on social and buying behaviour. His
expertise will help drive value and efficiencies for all parts of AIM
Smarter's circa $3.7 billion of aggregate transactional flow that we are
focused on growing."

Bob Wigley commented: "I am delighted to join Altitude at a time when AIM
Smarter's platform is uniquely positioned to transform how over 2,300
independent promotional products distributors transact, access data, and
compete - with the ambition to broaden that community further. The convergence
of frictionless trading, AI efficiencies and community commerce within a
trusted network is compelling, and I look forward to working with the Board to
help realise that opportunity."
