Further to the Company's announcement on 22 May 2024 that it was initiating a fundraising of up to £3.5 million, Nightcap, the owner and operator of 46 premium bars, announces that it has raised an additional £1.5 million, before expenses, through a further subscription for 30,000,000 New Ordinary Shares (the "Additional Subscription Shares") at an Issue Price of five pence per New Ordinary Share (the "Additional Subscription").

On 22 May 2024, the Company announced that it had raised £0.75 million, before expenses, through a subscription for 15,000,000 New Ordinary Shares (the "Initial Subscription Shares") at the same Issue Price (the "Initial Subscription"). The Company has therefore now received subscription commitments for a total of £2.25 million, before expenses.
