The Board of Adamas Finance Asia Limited ("ADAM"), the London quoted pan-Asian diversified investment vehicle, has approved a share buyback programme ("Programme") to repurchase ordinary shares of no par value ("Ordinary Shares") up to an aggregate value of US$500,000.

The Programme will commence on 25 February 2019 and is due to be completed by the end of 2019. ADAM plans to hold any Ordinary Shares purchased under the Programme in treasury.

Ordinary Share purchases will take place in open market transactions and may be made from time to time depending on market conditions, share price, trading volume and other factors.
