("CVS" or the "Company")

Exercise of SAYE Options, PDMR Dealing

and Total Voting Rights

CVS, one of the UK's leading providers of integrated veterinary services, announces that on 10 January 2023, options over a total of 106,955 ordinary shares of 0.2 pence each (the "Ordinary Shares") were exercised under the CVS Group 2019 SAYE Plan (2019/2023), at an exercise price of GBP8.63. Additionally, deferred options over a total of 1,474 Ordinary Shares were exercised under the CVS Group 2018 SAYE Plan (2018/2022) taking the total options exercised on 10 January 2023 to 108,429.

The sum of 108,429 new Ordinary Shares were issued to satisfy the balance of Ordinary Shares arising from the SAYE Exercise. Admission of the 108,429 new Ordinary Shares has been satisfied by the Company's block listing admitted to the London Stock Exchange on 30 December 2021.

Robin Alfonso, Chief Financial Officer exercised options over 709 Ordinary Shares in the Company. The balance of the options were exercised by certain other employees and former employees of the Company.

Following his option exercise, Robin Alfonso holds a beneficial interest in 12,151 Ordinary Shares in the Company, representing approximately 0.017 per cent of the total voting rights of the Company, calculated on the same basis.

Following the issue of the new Ordinary Shares, the Company has a total issued share capital of 71,380,400 Ordinary Shares each carrying one voting right. The Company holds no Ordinary Shares in treasury. Therefore, following the issue of the new Ordinary Shares, the total number of voting rights in the Company will be 71,380,400. This figure may 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 Guidance and Transparency Rules.

The notification below, made in accordance with the requirements of the UK Market Abuse Regulation, provides further detail.
