Volex plc

("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 2.8 pence per share for the year ended 31 March 2024 to be paid on 30 August 2024, elections were received in respect of 4,211,452 ordinary shares of 25 pence each in the Company ("Ordinary Shares") as at the scrip election date of 8 August 2024. Accordingly, 33,575 Ordinary Shares (the "Scrip Dividend Shares") will be issued in satisfaction of such elections at the scrip reference price of 351.1 pence each.

Application has been made to the London Stock Exchange for the Scrip Dividend Shares to be admitted to trading on AIM. It is expected that dealings in the Scrip Dividend Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m. on 30 August 2024.

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 181,651,108 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 181,651,108 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.
