Share Buy-Back Programme

24 February 2010

HUNTSWORTH PLC

("Huntsworth") or (the "Company")

Share Buy-Back Programme

Huntsworth announces that it will recommence the share buy-back programme that was announced on 6 January 2009 (the "Buy-Back Programme") to buy up to GBP5 million of the company's existing issued share capital, now that the close period has ended today with the publication of its preliminary results for the year ended 31 December 2009. Any shares purchased will be cancelled or held in treasury.

To date, Huntsworth has purchased GBP3.6 million of the company's issued share capital as part of the buy-back programme.

Any acquisitions pursuant to the Buy-Back Programme will be effected within certain pre-set parameters. The main parameter is that the maximum price paid is to be limited to no more than the higher of 105 per cent. of the average middle market closing price of Huntsworth's shares for the 5 dealing days preceding the date of purchase and that stipulated by Article 5 (1) of the Buy-Back and Stabilisation Regulation. Given the level of liquidity in the Company's shares, the Company may purchase more than 25 per cent. of the average daily volume of 418,455 for January 2010 being the latest month prior to recommencing the share buy back programme.

Any shares purchased under the Buy-Back Programme will count towards the Company's general buy-back authority of 14.99% of the Company's issue share capital, as approved at the Company's AGM on 14 May 2009.

Huntsworth confirms that having published its preliminary results today, it currently has no unpublished price sensitive information.
