                                         London Stock Exchange

 Date of purchases                       16 October 2025
 Number of ordinary shares purchased:    130,000
 Volume weighted average price paid:     £3.3806
 Highest price paid per share:           £3.4050
 Lowest price paid per share:            £3.3400

 

Playtech has to date purchased 2,220,043 Shares in aggregate through/from (as
the case may be) Goodbody and Jefferies in connection with its share buyback
programme which commenced on 25 September 2025.

All of the purchased shares are being transferred to the Company's Employee
Benefit Trust for nil consideration with a view to the shares being used to
fund awards (as and when they vest and are exercised) under the Company's
employee share schemes.  Therefore, the total number of shares in issue and
the total number of voting rights in the Company remains the same at
309,294,243.  This figure should continue to be used by shareholders as the
denominator for the calculation by which they can 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.

In accordance with Article 5(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 (the Market
Abuse Regulation) (also in force in the UK, from time to time, including,
where relevant, pursuant to the UK's European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and
Market Abuse (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019, a detailed breakdown of
individual trades made on 16 October 2025 by Goodbody on behalf of the Company
as part of the buyback programme is scheduled to this announcement.
