("Empresaria" or the "Company")

 

Transaction in Own Shares

Empresaria, the global specialist staffing group, announces that further to
its share buyback programme announced on 17 June 2020 ("Programme"), on 26
October 2023 it purchased 50,800 ordinary shares of £0.05 each in the Company
("Ordinary Shares") at a price of £0.40 per Ordinary Share.

All of the Ordinary Shares purchased under the Programme will be transferred
to the Empresaria Employee Benefit Trust. The Company intends that Ordinary
Shares transferred to the Empresaria Employee Benefit Trust will be used to
satisfy the exercise of options vested under the Company's Long Term Incentive
Plan.

Following the above purchase, the Company has 49,853,001 Ordinary Shares in
issue, of which 296,300 are held by the Company as treasury shares until they
are transferred to the Empresaria Employee Benefit Trust. Therefore, the total
number of voting rights in the Company is 49,556,701.

The above figure of 49,556,701 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, the Company under
the FCA's Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules.
