("Volex" or the "Company")

Issue of Equity and Total Voting Rights

Volex announces that, pursuant to its scrip dividend alternative for the final
dividend of 2.6 pence per share for the year ended 2 April 2023 to be paid on
25 August 2023, elections were received in respect of 52,432,961 ordinary
shares of 25 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") as at the scrip
election date of 4 August 2023. Accordingly, 478,491 Ordinary Shares (the
"Scrip Dividend Shares") will be issued in satisfaction of such elections at
the scrip reference price of 284.9 pence each.

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the Scrip Dividend
Shares to be admitted to AIM. It is expected that dealings in the Scrip
Dividend Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 25 August 2023.

The Scrip Dividend Shares will rank pari passu in all respects with the
existing Ordinary Shares of the Company.

Total voting rights

Following admission of the Scrip Dividend Shares, the Company's total issued
share capital will consist of 181,403,757 ordinary shares of 25 pence each
with one voting right per share.

As the Company does not hold any shares in treasury, the total number of
voting rights in the Company is also 181,403,757 and this figure may be used
by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will
determine if they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to
their interest in, the share capital of the Company under the FCA's Disclosure
Guidance and Transparency Rules.
