AGM Trading Update

Peel Hunt Limited ("Peel Hunt" or the "Company") today provides the following
trading update in relation to the three-month period ended 30 June 2025 ("Q1
FY26"). This statement is issued in advance of the Company's Annual General
Meeting which is being held at 2pm today.

We have had a strong start to our new financial year as market conditions have
begun to improve. We have seen higher revenue generation in our Institutional
and notably our Execution Services businesses, together with a significant
contribution from M&A transactions. Consequently, Group revenue for Q1
FY26 is comfortably ahead of the equivalent prior year period, which itself
was a good quarter.

We continue to have a strong pipeline of M&A transactions, with a number
of situations both announced and in process. It remains to be seen whether a
more general pick up in equity issuance and IPO activity will follow. Whilst
the macroeconomic background is hard to predict, investor confidence appears
to be increasingly resilient, and we are mandated on a number of transactions
that are expected to complete in the second half of our financial year should
market conditions be supportive.

We have also continued to add excellent clients to our franchise and, together
with many exciting growth companies, we now act for 55 FTSE 350 companies, 50
in the FTSE 250 and 5 in the FTSE 100.

We continue to strengthen our international distribution capabilities, adding
an office in Abu Dhabi to our international network in the coming months
alongside New York and Copenhagen. This is critical to our clients, as it
provides access to global investors who are an increasingly important
constituent of listed UK company share registers.
