Dear Shareholder

Proposed Subscription for New Ordinary Shares to raise EUR1.4 million

Proposed Authority to Allot New Ordinary Shares and Dis--apply Pre--Emptive Rights

Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting of the Company

   1            Background 

The purpose of this Circular is to explain the background to the Subscription, convene the EGM and detail the reasons why the Board believes it to be in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole that you vote in favour of the Resolutions.

The Company announced the following information on 14 February 2022 in its trading update for the financial year ended 31 December 2022:

As indicated in the Company's interim results at the end of September 2022, it has been a very challenging year for Glantus. Accordingly, the Company expects to report, subject to audit, revenue for FY2022 of c.EUR10.8 million and an adjusted EBITDA loss of EUR2.1 million before exceptional restructuring costs and any impairment of goodwill from acquisitions.

These results have been impacted by a number of factors, including the negative impact the global restructuring has had on productivity, the relocation of the AP audit function to Costa Rica and the delayed onboarding of some new opportunities. In addition, the Board, having done a comprehensive review, has prudently determined that a material amount of revenue which was anticipated in FY2022 from two client contracts may not be achieved.

In response to the above, the Group has rapidly and decisively restructured the business. This has achieved annualised cost savings of over EUR3 million by reducing the global workforce by 39 persons. In addition, there has been a further significant reduction in operational infrastructure costs. This restructuring has consolidated operations globally with a focus on technology-led initiatives to drive margins and scale.

Alongside these cost savings, the Company has been able to generate encouraging monthly billing amounts in recent months, with average monthly billing in Q4 2022 of c.EUR1.22 million and in excess of EUR1.1 million for January 2023. This billing performance combined with the revised cost base means the Board believes the business is poised to deliver strong margins and positive cash flow from operations in 2023.

As a result of the challenges during FY 2022, the Company currently has low amounts of cash resources available for its use. In addition, under the Company's existing banking facilities with its lender, Beach Point Capital (BPC), the Company is due to repay EUR5 million in August 2023. The Company has been in discussions with BPC regarding such repayment and confirms that it has received from BPC a conditional commitment to extend the repayment date by 12 months to 31 August 2024 (the Extension Commitment). The Extension Commitment is conditional on both final legal agreement and the Company raising GBP1.2m through an equity raise.

Accordingly, in order to satisfy the equity raise condition described above and increase the cash resources available to it, the Company also announced later on 14 February 2023, that it had raised approximately EUR1.4 million (before expenses) from a combination of new and existing investors by a conditional irrevocable subscription for the Subscription Shares at the Issue Price, conditional on the passing of Resolutions 1 and 2 below.

Pursuant to the Subscription, the Company has received conditional subscription letters for the Subscription Shares at the Issue Price. The Issue Price presents a premium of c.12 per cent. to the previous day's closing share price of 8.25 pence per Ordinary Share on 13 February 2023, being the day prior to the announcement of the Subscription. In setting the Issue Price, the Directors have considered the price at which the Subscription Shares need to be offered to the Subscribers to ensure the success of the Subscription, whilst also minimising dilution for all other Shareholders.

As described further in paragraph 6 of this Part 1, the final number of Subscription Shares (subject to the 25.14% Founder Cap) which will be issued will be equal (to the nearest whole share) to the Subscription Funds (being the equivalent of the STGGBP amount based on the EUR/STG exchange rate as at 9.00am the Business Day prior to the Issue Date) divided by the Issue Price. For illustrative purposes, assuming that approximately EUR1.4 million is raised under the Subscription, the Subscription Shares would represent c. 25.53% of the enlarged issued Ordinary Share capital of the Company if calculated from the EUR/STG exchange rate as at 9.00 am on the Business Day prior to the date of this document.

In order to maintain his shareholding of 25.14% (the Founder Cap), the founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, Maurice Leonard Healy (the Founder), is among the Subscribers that have bound themselves to subscribe for Subscription Shares at the Issue Price as part of the Subscription, the Founder will subscribe for the relevant number of Subscription Shares for an aggregate subscription consideration of EUR350,000. The other Subscribers in the Subscription are a combination of new and existing investors.

Following the date of this document but prior to the EGM, the Board may, if appropriate and at completely the Board's discretion, permit certain additional Subscribers to agree to acquire Subscription Shares up to the absolute limits set out in the Resolutions. To the extent that any additional Subscribers agree to acquire Subscription Shares, the Company will make further notifications by a Regulatory Information Service as applicable.

If Admission does not occur by the Long Stop Date, the Subscription Funds will be returned to the Subscribers and the Subscription Letters will cease to be of any further force or effect.

   2            Use of Proceeds 

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Subscription to settle certain deferred consideration payments for the acquisition of Technology Insight Corporation and Meridian Cost Benefit Limited, as well some remaining costs associated with the Company's recent restructuring and for working capital purposes.

In addition, as set out in the Company's trading update on 14 February 2023, under the Company's existing banking facilities with its lender, BPC, the Company is due to repay EUR5 million in August 2023. The Company has been in discussions with BPC regarding such repayment and has received in writing from BPC a conditional commitment to extend the repayment date by 12 months to 31 August 2024. The Extension Commitment is conditional on both final legal agreement and the Company raising GBP1.2 million through an equity raise. The Company is satisfying this equity raise condition through the Subscription. However, even if the Subscription completes, there can be no certainty that an agreement for the BPC repayment extension will be completed.

   3            Importance of the Vote 

Shareholders should note that unless the Resolutions approving the Subscription are passed at the General Meeting, the Company will not receive the proceeds from the Subscription. The Subscription is being undertaken to increase the cash resources of the Company and in order to satisfy the equity raise condition in the Extension Commitment as described in paragraph 1 and 2 of this Part 1. If the EUR5 million loan repayment due in August 2023 is not extended as envisaged in the Extension Commitment, the Company will have to pursue alternative options in order to meet the loan repayment in August 2023 and there can be no guarantee that it would be successful. In addition, the Company will continue to have low amounts of cash resources available to operate the business with, noting the challenging trading conditions as set out in the Company's trading update on 14 February 2022 and in Paragraph 1 of this Part 1.

The Directors believe completion of the Subscription and approval of the Resolutions to be proposed at the EGM are in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, it is important Shareholders vote in favour of the Resolutions.

   4            Related Party Transaction 

The participation of the Founder, as a Director of the Company, in the Subscription constitutes a related party transaction pursuant to Rule 13 of the AIM Rules. The independent Directors, being the Directors excluding the Founder, consider, having consulted with Shore Capital, the Company's nominated adviser, that the Founder's participation in the Subscription is fair and reasonable insofar as Shareholders are concerned.

   5            Irrevocable Undertakings 

The Company has received irrevocable undertakings to vote in favour of the Resolutions from all Directors who hold Ordinary Shares together with certain Shareholders who hold, or are interested in, an aggregate of 20,002,485 Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 52.87 per cent. of the Company's issued share capital.

   6            EGM and Resolutions 

The Board is seeking Shareholder authority for the issue of the Subscription Shares (including the issue of Subscription Shares to any additional Subscribers following the date of this document but prior to the EGM) and additional authority for general use.

At the end of this document is a notice convening an EGM of the Company, which is to be held at the offices of the Company at Marina House, Block V, Eastpoint Business Park, Dublin, D03 AX24, Ireland, on 16 March 2023, at 11.00 a.m., at which the Resolutions detailed therein will be proposed to the Shareholders.

In summary, if approved as proposed by the Board:

(i) Resolution 1 - authorises the Board, as an ordinary resolution pursuant to section 1021 of the Companies Act, to allot and issue Subscription Shares to the Subscribers. In the event that Resolution 1 is not passed, the Subscription will not proceed. For the avoidance of doubt, this authority will be in addition to the AGM Allotment Authority, which will remain valid notwithstanding the approval of Resolution 1. The number of Subscription Shares in the capital of the Company to be issued to the Subscribers will be equal (to the nearest whole share) to the Subscription Funds (being the equivalent of the STGGBP amount based on the EUR/STG exchange rate as at 9.00am on the Business Day prior to the Issue Date) divided by the Issue Price.

(ii) Resolution 2 - grants to the Board, by way of a special resolution, authority to allot the Subscription Shares to the Subscribers without applying statutory pre-emption rights for Shareholders. For the purposes of Section 1023 of the Companies Act (and in particular under subsection (7) thereof), the Directors state that:

a. their reasons for recommending that they be authorised to issue New Ordinary Shares in accordance with the Resolutions contained in the Notice are set out, inter alia, in paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 of this letter;

b. the amount to be paid to the Company in respect of each Subscription Share will be the Issue Price; and

   c.     their justification of that amount is set out in paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 of this letter. 

To ensure sufficient authority in the event of an exchange rate movement following between the date of this document and the Business Day prior to the Issue Date or any additional Subscribers following the date of this document, Resolution 2 grants up to 20% additional authority (calculated from the estimated number of Subscription Shares which would be issued pursuant to the Subscription) to the Board to allot and issue Ordinary Shares without applying statutory pre-emption rights for Shareholders in connection with the Subscription, estimated based on a raise of subscription funds of EUR1.4 million and applying the EUR/STG exchange rate at the ECB closing price on 14 February 2023, being the date that the Subscription Letters were entered into.

(iii) Resolution 3 - grants to the Board, by way of a special resolution, further authority to disapply the strict statutory pre-emption provisions for allotments (other than by way of pre-emptive offers) up to an additional aggregate nominal value of EUR10,160.66 which represents approximately 20% of the estimated total nominal value of the Company's enlarged issued ordinary share capital (excluding treasury shares) following the issue and allotment of the Subscription Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, this authority will be in addition to Resolution 2 but will replace the existing AGM Disapplication Authority, which will be revoked.

If adopted, these authorities will expire at the conclusion of the next annual general meeting of the Company or at midnight on the date which is 15 months after the passing of the resolution (whichever is earlier) unless previously varied, revoked or renewed.

The new authorities are being sought predominately to allow the Company to complete the Subscription and to assist the Board in implementing measures that may arise from the strategic review of the Company.

Note: Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to information provided as at 5.00 p.m. on 16 February 2023 throughout this letter are to that time being the latest practicable time and date for that information prior to the issue of this letter.

   7            Action to be taken by Shareholders 

Voting by proxy

The process for appointing a proxy and/or voting in connection with the resolutions to be proposed at the meeting depends on the manner in which you hold your shares. Further details are set out in the Statement of Procedures on pages 10 - 13 of this document. For those Shareholders who intend to appoint a proxy other than the Chairperson of the EGM, we would ask that, as a contingency measure, you would additionally appoint the Chairperson of the EGM as an alternative proxy in the event that the initially intended proxy is unable to attend for any reason (and does not appoint a substitute). This will facilitate your vote being included in the wider range of contingent scenarios.

Please note that persons holding their interests in the Company through the Euroclear Bank must comply with any earlier or other voting submission deadline imposed by those systems. Further information in this respect is provided in the Statement of Procedures on pages 10 - 13 of this document.

Completion and return of a Form of Proxy or transmitting an electronic proxy instruction will not prevent a Shareholder from attending the EGM and voting in person should such Shareholder wish to do so.

Questions and teleconferencing facilities to listen to the business of the EGM

The Company recognises the importance of engagement with Shareholders in respect of the EGM. In this regard, Shareholders may submit questions for the Board in advance of the meeting. Details of how to do this are provided in the Statement of Procedures set out at the end of this document. Shareholders present may also raise questions in person during the meeting. All questions must relate to the business of the EGM.

The Company will provide teleconferencing facilities to allow Shareholders to listen to the business of the EGM remotely. Details of registering for such facilities will be provided on the Company's website, www.glantus.com in advance of the EGM. Please note that this facility will allow you to listen to the business of the EGM only, you will not be able to use this facility to vote or raise questions or points.

   8.     Recommendation 

The Directors believe completion of the Subscription and approval of the Resolutions to be proposed at the EGM are in the best interests of the Company and its Shareholders as a whole. Accordingly, the Board recommends that you vote in favour of the Resolutions, as the Directors who hold shares in the Company intend to do in respect of their own beneficial shareholdings amounting, in aggregate, to 14,288,412 existing Ordinary Shares, representing approximately 37.77% of the issued share capital of the Company at the date of this Circular.
