Graham Hetherington, Chair, said:
'We are pleased with the strong support received from shareholders at today's
General Meeting to enable Indivior to move its primary listing to the Nasdaq
Stock Market. We believe that this move will better align with the Group's
current and future growth opportunities, attract more U.S. investors and
analysts, allow for inclusion in U.S. indices over time and better reflect the
growing proportion of our investors that are based in the U.S.
We expect the transfer of the primary listing will become effective on
Thursday June 27, 2024. The Board intends to maintain Indivior's U.K. listing
as a secondary listing following the transfer for as long as it is considered
to be in the best interests of Indivior and Indivior shareholders as a whole.'

pipeline; our ability to comply with legal and regulatory settlements,
healthcare laws and regulations, requirements imposed by regulatory agencies
and payment and reporting obligations under government pricing programs; risks

our ability to commercialize our products and compete with other market

protect our intellectual property rights and the substantial cost of

international nature of our business; macroeconomic trends and other global
developments such as armed conflicts and pandemics; the terms of our debt
instruments, changes in our credit ratings and our ability to service our
indebtedness and other obligations as they come due; changes in applicable tax
rate or tax rules, regulations or interpretations and our ability to realize
our deferred tax assets; and volatility in our share price due to factors
unrelated to our operating performance or that may result from the potential
