Dividend Declaration

and

Trading Update

 

M Winkworth plc ("Winkworth" or the "Company"), the leading franchisor of real
estate agencies, is pleased to announce that the Company will pay an interim
dividend of 3.3p per ordinary share for the second quarter of 2025 to
shareholders.

As anticipated, an uptick in the sales market in H1 2025 helped Winkworth
deliver a strong performance, with preliminary results showing an increase in
network sales revenue of approximately 25% on H1 2024, with a particularly
strong month of March. While Q1 2025 sales benefited from an acceleration of
activity prior to the reduction in the stamp duty exemption threshold for
first time buyers as of April 2025, interest remained buoyant in Q2 2025.

As a counterbalance to this, lettings activity was more subdued, with network
management and letting revenue up by approximately 3% over the period.

In the first half of the year the Company opened three new offices and resold
two franchises.

The Directors expect pre-tax profits for the year to 31 December 2025 to be in
line with market expectations of £2.6 million(1).

(1) Immediately prior to this announcement, analysts' consensus for the year
ending 31 December 2025 was pre-tax profits of £2.6 million.
