Result of General Meeting, Welcome to New Substantial Shareholder & Total Voting Rights

 

EnSilica plc (AIM: ENSI), a leading fabless, application-specific chipmaker, announces that at the general meeting of the Company held earlier today, all resolutions were duly passed. The results of the proxy voting will be available on the Company's website in due course.

 

As a result of the resolutions being passed today, the Second Tranche Placing and the Retail Offer as announced on 13 March 2026 and 18 March 2026 can now proceed to completion. It is expected that Admission will become effective and dealings in the new Ordinary Shares will commence on AIM at 8.00 a.m. on 8 April 2026.

 

Welcome to new substantial shareholder

 

The board of directors of EnSilica looks forward to welcoming Esterhuyzen Limited ("Esterhuyzen") as a substantial shareholder following Esterhuyzen's participation in the Second Tranche Placing. Esterhuyzen participated in the First Tranche Placing and, as announced on 19 March 2026, currently holds 8,000,000 Ordinary Shares, representing 7.53 per cent. of the Company's current issued share capital. Following Esterhuyzen's participation in the Second Tranche Placing, Esterhuyzen is expected to hold 16,000,000 Ordinary Shares, representing 13.57 per cent. of the enlarged issued share capital from Admission.

 

Esterhuyzen Limited is a privately held family office investment holding company with a particular focus on the pan European semiconductor sector. Esterhuyzen Limited's investment approach is long-term, and they are supportive of the Company's existing strategic direction.
