CVS announces that on 02 January 2026 it purchased the following number of its
ordinary shares of 0.2 pence each ("Ordinary Shares") from Joh. Berenberg,
Gossler & Co. KG, London Branch ("Berenberg"), in accordance with the
terms of the share buyback programme announced on 24 October 2025 (the "Share
Buyback Programme").

 

 Date of purchase:                                    02/01/2026
 Aggregate number of Ordinary Shares purchased:       15,144
 Lowest price paid per share (GBp):                   1,276.00
 Highest price paid per share (GBp):                  1,288.00
 Volume weighted average price paid per share (GBp):  1,283.48

CVS intends to cancel all of the purchased Ordinary Shares.

 

Following settlement of the above purchases and cancellation of the Ordinary
Shares purchased, CVS will have 70,691,575 Ordinary Shares in issue and holds
no Ordinary Shares in treasury.

 

The total number of voting rights in CVS is therefore 70,691,575 and this
figure may be used by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by
which they will determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or
a change to their interest in, CVS under the Financial Conduct Authority's
Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

 

Since the commencement of the Share Buyback Programme, the Company has
repurchased 1,049,208 Ordinary Shares in aggregate at a weighted average price
of 1,222.17 pence per share.
