Anexo Group plc

('Anexo' or the 'Company')

Settlement with Volkswagen AG

Anexo can announce that the Group has reached an agreement with Volkswagen AG ("VW") and its subsidiaries to conclude the claims of around 12,000 claimants represented by the Group (the "VW Emissions case"). The VW Emissions case was handled by a specialist team within the Group's legal services division, Bond Turner.

This agreement avoids the need for protracted litigation and the substantial legal costs that would have been incurred by both parties had the matter progressed to trial.

The terms of the agreement are subject to confidentiality restrictions, however the Group can announce that it will have a net positive cash position to Anexo of GBP7.175 million.

Given the timing of the agreement, it will not have an impact on the results for the year ended 31 December 2022.
