BTG announces the following changes in the interests of Directors and Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibility ("PDMRs") in ordinary shares of £0.01 each in the share capital of the Company ("shares").

On 1 June 2026, a grant of PSP options was made under the BTG 2020 PSP to the Directors and PDMRs listed below:
| Name | Director/PDMR | Number of PSP options |
|---|---|---|

The number of PSP options shown is the maximum available if the performance conditions for the three-year performance period from 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2029 are satisfied in full. The performance conditions relate to the Company's earnings per share growth and relative total shareholder return over the performance period. Further details of the performance conditions are disclosed in the Company's annual report, distributed to shareholders on 27 May 2026 and available on the BTG website.
Vesting will be on a pro-rata basis between the threshold and maximum vesting figures. In addition, the BTG Remuneration Committee retains discretion to reduce the overall PSP vesting level if it considers that the underlying business performance of the Company does not justify it.
