Melbourne, Australia – 1 July 2021 – PEXA Group Limited ( PEXA or the Company ), operator of Australia’s leading digital property settlements platform, is pleased to announce that trading of its shares on the Australian Securities Exchange ( ASX ) will commence today, on a conditional and deferred settlement basis, under the code ‘PXA’, following the successful completion of its initial public offering ( IPO ).

PEXA Chairman Mr Mark Joiner said: “We are delighted with the outcome of the IPO and the support shown by institutional and retail investors. Our listing today on the ASX marks another important milestone for PEXA, as we look to explore opportunities to take our experience and expertise into new markets in Australia and internationally. I would like to thank our existing shareholders for their ongoing support and warmly welcome new investors, including many of our employees and practitioner partners, to share in the exciting journey we have ahead of us.”
