The Company is a leading independent cinema group in the UK. The Company as at January 2026 operated 49 cinemas, with 171 screens following the opening of new venues in Brentford and at The Whiteley. The business model of the Company is to further build its portfolio of venues whilst successfully growing its existing estate by bringing together great food, drink, atmosphere, service and of course film, to create exceptional experiences for its customers.

The Everyman brand is positioned at the premium end of the UK leisure/cinema market. The Company’s proposition is based on high quality and unique venues in central high street locations. The Group seeks to differentiate itself by focusing on delivering a high-quality offering through its venues, content, staff and food and beverage.

The Directors believe that the opportunities to develop new Everyman venues both across the UK and more widely are significant. New venues can be part of a large new developer-led complex, the refurbishment of an old existing traditional cinema or conversion of small existing spaces.

 

Cancellation of admission to trading on AIM

Everyman Media Group plc (AIM: EMAN), announced on 13 October 2026 that it posted a Circular to Shareholders, including a Notice of General Meeting along with a Form of Proxy, to seek shareholder approval for the proposed cancellation of the admission of the Company's ordinary shares of 10 pence each to trading on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange.
 
The Circular provides Shareholders with the background to and the reasons for the proposed Cancellation, explains the consequences of the Cancellation and why the Directors unanimously consider that Cancellation to be in the best interest of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. The Circular can be accessed here.

The General Meeting was held at 9.30 a.m. on 30 October 2026 at the offices of Howard Kennedy LLP, No.1 London Bridge, London SE1 9BG.

Both resolutions were duly passed, including the special resolution approving the cancellation of admission of the Company’s ordinary shares of 10 pence each to trading on AIM.  The results of the General Meeting can be accessed here.

The last day of dealings in the Ordinary Shares on AIM is 11 November 2026, with Cancellation expected to take effect at 7.00 a.m. on 12 November 2026.

 

Secondary Trading Following Cancellation

Asset Match Private Market

Secondary trading in the Company’s Ordinary Shares will be facilitated through the Asset Match Private Market, operating under the Private Intermittent Securities and Capital Exchange System ("PISCES") framework.

Asset Match Limited ("Asset Match") is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 579310) and will operate periodic liquidity events in accordance with the rules applicable to the Asset Match Private Market and the PISCES regulatory framework.

PISCES is designed to enable the shares of private companies to be traded during defined trading periods. Accordingly, unlike AIM, the Company's Ordinary Shares will not be available for continuous trading. Instead, eligible investors will have the opportunity to buy and sell Ordinary Shares during periodic trading events.

The Directors believe these arrangements will provide shareholders with a mechanism through which they may seek to buy or sell Ordinary Shares, while allowing the Company to operate within a framework specifically designed for secondary trading in the shares of private companies.

How trading will work

Trading will take place through periodic auctions operated by Asset Match.

In advance of each auction, details of the relevant trading period, including the opening and closing dates and times and any applicable pricing parameters, will be made available to participants.

During an auction, eligible investors are able to submit orders to buy or sell Ordinary Shares through their participating stockbroker or intermediary.

The Asset Match Private Market will operate an open auction system where volumes of bids and offers at different prices are displayed on a dedicated Everyman portal. Where applicable an indicative price will be displayed indicating where shares would transact if it were to close at that specific moment in time. At the end of each auction period, Asset Match passes this information through a non-discretionary algorithm that determines a "market-derived" share price based on supply and demand and allocates transactions accordingly. Bids and offers may be made and withdrawn at any time before the closing date of each auction, subject to the applicable market rules.

The timing and detailed parameters of the Company's first auction and ongoing trading schedule have not yet been determined but will be announced separately in due course.

How shareholders can participate

Shareholders wishing to participate in an auction should first check with their existing stockbroker or intermediary whether they are able to facilitate trading on the Asset Match Private Market.

Shareholders will continue to be able to hold their Ordinary Shares in uncertificated form through CREST. However, not all stockbrokers or investment platforms are able to facilitate transactions in private company shares or access Asset Match’s PISCES trading venue.

Where a shareholder's existing broker is unable to facilitate participation, the shareholder may need to make alternative arrangements. Asset Match can provide details of brokers and intermediaries that are able to facilitate access to the Asset Match Private Market.

New investors wishing to participate will similarly need to satisfy the applicable eligibility and onboarding requirements and arrange access through an appropriate broker or intermediary.

• the dates and duration of the trading event;
• investor eligibility and participation requirements;
• the process for submitting buy and sell orders;
• any applicable pricing parameters;
• the auction methodology;
• settlement arrangements; and
• the brokers and intermediaries able to facilitate access to the Asset Match Private Market.
