Graham Hetherington, Chair, said:

'We are pleased with the strong support received from shareholders at today's General Meeting to enable Indivior to move its primary listing to the Nasdaq Stock Market. We believe that this move will better align with the Group's current and future growth opportunities, attract more U.S. investors and analysts, allow for inclusion in U.S. indices over time and better reflect the growing proportion of our investors that are based in the U.S.

We expect the transfer of the primary listing will become effective on Thursday June 27, 2024. The Board intends to maintain Indivior's U.K. listing as a secondary listing following the transfer for as long as it is considered to be in the best interests of Indivior and Indivior shareholders as a whole.'
