Update on Proposed Acquisition of WH Ireland's Wealth Management Business

Further to the announcements made on 22 September 2025 and 8 October 2025, Oberon provides an update on its proposed acquisition of the wealth management operations of WH Ireland Limited ("WHI"), a subsidiary of WH Ireland Group plc.

At WH Ireland Group plc's general meeting, held on 9 October 2025, shareholders did not approve the resolution required to complete the transaction at this stage. Notwithstanding the outcome of the vote, Oberon confirms its view that the Asset Purchase Agreement between Oberon Investments Limited and WHI ("APA") remains in force, with the parties' obligations to use all reasonable endeavours to procure that the APA becomes unconditional continuing until 31 December 2025.

Both parties remain in constructive discussions and are exploring potential options to deliver the best outcome for clients and stakeholders. Oberon continues to believe that an orderly transition of WHI's clients to the Oberon platform would represent a strong strategic and operational fit, ensuring continuity of service and the highest standards of client care.
