Posting of Annual Report and Accounts

Charles Stanley Group PLC ("the Company") announces that the Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021, the Notice of Annual General Meeting ("AGM") and Proxy Form have been posted to shareholders.

Alternatively, the documents are available to be viewed or downloaded from the Company's website: http://www.charles-stanley.co.uk/investor-relations .

Copies of the documents have also been lodged with the National Storage Mechanism at https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism .

AGM

The Company's AGM is scheduled to be held at 10:00am on Monday 12 July 2021 at 55 Bishopsgate, London EC2N 3AS.

COVID-19 update

While the Board's preference had been to welcome shareholders in person to the AGM, it is asking shareholders not to attend the meeting's physical venue this year. As at the date of the Notice of Meeting, public health guidance and legislation in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the arrangements.

The AGM will be convened with the minimum necessary quorum, comprising officers of the Company who are also shareholders, to conduct the business of the Meeting. As such, pending further guidance, shareholders will not be permitted to attend the AGM in person, but instead should submit their proxy votes such that they can be represented by the Chair of the Meeting acting as their proxy. If a shareholder appoints a person other than the Chair of the AGM as their proxy, that other proxy will not be able to attend the AGM nor vote. The Board will keep this under review and reserves the ability to revise arrangements in relation to the AGM should circumstances change. Any relevant updates will be available on the Company's website https://www.charles-stanley.co.uk/investor-relations .

The Board recognises the importance of the AGM to engage with shareholders, therefore a remote shareholder engagement event will take place immediately ahead of the formal AGM proceedings. Joining the Meeting electronically will not constitute attendance at the AGM. To be formally represented at the Meeting, shareholders will need to appoint the Chair of the AGM as their proxy. More information is located within the Notice of Meeting.

The Board would like to invite shareholders to register to listen in to the Meeting electronically by contacting [e-mail] and strongly encourages shareholders to submit any questions relevant to the business of the Meeting they may have for the Board by emailing them to [e-mail] in advance. The Board will endeavour, where appropriate, to respond to all questions submitted before the proxy appointment deadline to those questions received by the close of business on Tuesday 6 July 2021. Questions submitted after the deadline will be addressed at the Meeting where appropriate and all answers will also be published on our website at https://www.charles-stanley.co.uk/investor-relations .
