Stock Exchange Announcement

LIONTRUST ASSET MANAGEMENT PLC

Issue of Equity and Total Voting Rights

Liontrust Asset Management Plc ("Liontrust" or the "Company") announces that it has issued 646,605 new ordinary Liontrust shares of 1p each (the "New Ordinary Shares") to the former shareholders of Neptune Investment Management Limited as the consideration due to them in relation to the net asset value ("NAV") of Neptune Investment Management Limited ("Neptune") on completion of Liontrust's acquisition of Neptune (the "Acquisition"). The NAV of Neptune on completion of the Acquisition was £4.885 million.

Application has been made for the New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to the Official List and to trading on the London Stock Exchange, both of which are expected to become effective on 29 January 2020.

Following the admission to trading of the New Ordinary Shares, the Company's capital will consist of 55,400,216 ordinary shares of 1p each with voting rights. No ordinary shares are held in Treasury.

Thereafter, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 55,400,216.

The above figure of 55,400,216 may then 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 Company under the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
