("Aptitude", "the Group")

Exercise of awards under the Aptitude 2020 Deferred Bonus Plan ("DBP")

Aptitude (LSE: APTD), a market-leading provider of finance transformation
software solutions, specialising in delivering fully autonomous finance,
announces that it has issued a total of 6,707 ordinary shares of 7 1/3 pence
each ("Ordinary Shares") to satisfy the exercise of options under the DBP. The
Deferred Bonus Shares were nil cost options subject to a two-year holding
period, and included an entitlement to receive dividend equivalent shares
during the holding period.

Application has been made for the 6,707 new Ordinary Shares to be admitted to
trading ("Admission"), and dealings are expected to commence on or around 24
April 2025. The new Ordinary Shares will rank pari passu with the Company's
existing Ordinary Shares.

Total Voting Rights

Following the issue of the Ordinary Shares, the Company will hold 1,656,229 of
its Ordinary Shares in treasury and the number of Ordinary Shares in issue and
admitted to trading will be increased to 55,688,089 (excluding treasury
shares). This figure of 55,688,089 Ordinary Shares may be used by shareholders
in the Company as the denominator for the calculations by which they will
determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change in
their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the Financial
Conduct Authority's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
