Revolution Beauty Group plc

("Revolution Beauty" or the "Company")

Result of Placing and Subscription

Revolution Beauty, the multi-channel mass beauty brand, is pleased to announce
that, further to the announcement made earlier today (the "Launch
Announcement") regarding the launch of the proposed Placing and Subscription,
it has successfully raised £15 million (before fees and expenses), in
aggregate, via the placing of 345,132,401 new ordinary shares of one penny
(the "Ordinary Shares") by way of the Placing and 154,867,599 new Ordinary
Shares by way of the Subscription, in each case at the Issue Price.

The Placing Shares and Subscription Shares represent 156.50% of the issued
ordinary share capital of the Company prior to the Placing and Subscription.

Panmure Liberum Limited ("Panmure Liberum") is acting as nominated adviser,
joint broker and joint bookrunner, alongside Zeus Capital Limited ("Zeus
Capital") which is also acting as joint broker and joint bookrunner (together,
the "Joint Bookrunners") in connection with the Placing and Subscription.

Retail Offer

As announced earlier today, the Company will also launch a Retail Offer
through the BookBuild Platform to raise gross proceeds of up to £1.5 million
(before fees and expenses). The Retail Offer provides existing retail
Shareholders in the United Kingdom with an opportunity to participate in the
Fundraise at the same issue price as the Placing and Subscription.

Related Party Transactions

As set out below, each of Iain McDonald and Neil Catto have agreed to
subscribe for a total of 1,999,999 Subscription Shares pursuant to the
Subscription. The relevant Directors will be treated as a "related party", and
their participation in the Subscription as a "related party transaction", for
the purposes of Rule 13 of the AIM Rules.

Each of Debenhams, Tom Allsworth and Adam Minto is a substantial shareholder
(as defined under the AIM Rules) in the Company, and they have agreed to
subscribe for a total of 298,836,934 Fundraise Shares pursuant to the Placing
(in the case of Debenhams) or the Subscription (in the case of Tom Allsworth
and Adam Minto).  Each of Debenhams, Tom Allsworth and Adam Minto will,
therefore, also be treated as a "related party", and their participation in
the Fundraise as a "related party transaction", for the purposes of Rule 13 of
the AIM Rules.

The independent Directors for the purposes of the Fundraise (being Colin
Henry, Chris Fry and Rachel Horsefield) consider, having consulted with
Panmure Liberum, the Company's nominated adviser for the purposes of the AIM
Rules, that the participation in the Fundraise by (i) each of Iain McDonald
and Neil Catto and (ii) Debenhams, Tom Allsworth and Adam Minto is fair and
reasonable insofar as Shareholders are concerned.

The individual subscriptions for the participating Directors, and their
holdings of Ordinary Shares on Admission, are set out below:

 Director       Existing shareholding (Number of Ordinary Shares)  Number of new Ordinary Shares acquired  Shareholding on Admission (Number of Ordinary Shares)  % of the Enlarged Share Capital on Admission*
 Iain McDonald  -                                                  1,666,666                               1,666,666                                              0.20
 Neil Catto     -                                                  333,333                                 333,333                                                0.04

Note: *assuming that no Retail Offer Shares are issued and that there are no
changes to the Existing Share Capital between the date of this Announcement
and Admission, other than the issue of the Placing Shares and the Subscription
Shares

the Retail Offer and the Notice of General Meeting to be held the offices of
Macfarlanes LLP at 20 Cursitor Street, London EC4A 1LT at 10 a.m. on 11

August 2025 and will thereafter be available on the Company's website
