RECOMMENDED FINAL* CASH ACQUISITION

OF

INTERTEK GROUP PLC ("INTERTEK")

BY

ISOTOPE BIDCO LIMITED ("BIDCO")

to be effected by means of a scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006

RESULTS OF VOTING AT COURT MEETING AND GENERAL MEETING

On 18 June 2026, the boards of Intertek and Bidco announced that they had reached agreement on the terms of a recommended final cash acquisition pursuant to which the entire issued and to be issued ordinary share capital of Intertek will be acquired by Bidco (the "Acquisition"), a newly formed company to be indirectly owned by EQT X EUR SCSp and EQT X USD SCSp, each acting through its manager (gérant) EQT Fund Management S.à r.l., together with certain indirect minority shareholders including, among others, Luxinva and Mubadala, to be implemented by way of a court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Scheme").

On 15 July 2026, Intertek published a circular in relation to the Scheme (the "Scheme Document"). Capitalised terms used in this announcement shall, unless otherwise defined, have the meanings as set out in the Scheme Document.

Results of Court Meeting and General Meeting

Intertek is pleased to announce that, at the Court Meeting and General Meeting held earlier today in connection with the Acquisition:

(A)        the requisite majorities of Scheme Shareholders voted in favour of the resolution to approve the Scheme at the Court Meeting; and

(B)        the requisite majority of Intertek Shareholders voted in favour of the Special Resolution to implement the Scheme, including the amendments to Intertek's articles of association, at the General Meeting.

Details of the resolutions proposed and passed are set out in the notices of the Court Meeting and the General Meeting contained in the Scheme Document.

Voting results of the Court Meeting

The table below sets out the results of the poll conducted at the Court Meeting. Each Scheme Shareholder present (including by proxy) was entitled to one vote per Scheme Share held at the Voting Record Time.

Results of Court Meeting	Scheme Shares voted		Scheme Shareholders who voted**		No. of Scheme Shares voted as a % of Scheme Shares eligible to be voted at the Court Meeting*
	Number	%*	Number	%*
FOR	82,888,264	98.72	62	81.58	53.85
AGAINST	1,077,706	1.28	14	18.42	0.70
TOTAL***	83,965,970	100	68	100	54.55

*All percentages are rounded to two decimal places.

**Where a Scheme Shareholder has cast some of their votes "for" and some of their votes "against" the resolution, such Scheme Shareholder has been counted as having voted both "for" and "against" the resolution for the purposes of determining the number of Scheme Shareholders who voted as set out in this column.

***The aggregate of Scheme Shareholders voting "for" and "against" the resolution as set out in this row exceeds the total number and percentage of Scheme Shareholders who voted because eight registered members gave instructions for votes to be cast "for" the resolution in respect of part of their holding of Scheme Shares and "against" the resolution in respect of another part of their holding of Scheme Shares.

Voting results of the General Meeting

The table below sets out the results of the poll conducted at the General Meeting. Each Intertek Shareholder present (including by proxy) was entitled to one vote per Intertek Share held at the Voting Record Time:

	Votes for**		Votes against		Total votes	Withheld votes ***

Approval of the Special Resolution	83,231,379	98.72	1,081,216	1.28	84,312,595	563,071

*All percentages rounded to two decimal places.

** Includes discretionary votes.

*** A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted in the calculation of the proportion of votes "for" or "against" the Special Resolution.

The total number of Intertek Shares in issue at the Voting Record Time (6.30 p.m. on 4 August 2026) was 153,931,794, with no shares held in treasury. Consequently, the total number of voting rights in Intertek at the Voting Record Time was 153,931,794.

Overseas Jurisdictions

This announcement has been prepared in connection with proposals in relation to a scheme of arrangement pursuant to and for the purpose of complying with English law and the Takeover Code and information disclosed may not be the same as that which would have been disclosed if the Scheme had been prepared in accordance with the laws of jurisdictions outside the UK (including Restricted Jurisdictions). Nothing in the Scheme should be relied on for any other purpose. The Acquisition shall be subject to the applicable requirements of the Takeover Code, the Panel, the London Stock Exchange and the FCA.

The release, publication or distribution of this announcement in or into jurisdictions other than the UK or the United States, and the availability of the Acquisition to Intertek Shareholders who are not resident in the UK or the United States, may be restricted by law and therefore any persons who are subject to the law of any jurisdiction other than the UK (including Restricted Jurisdictions) should inform themselves about, and observe, any applicable legal or regulatory requirements. This announcement has been prepared for the purposes of complying with English law and the Takeover Code and the information disclosed may not be the same as that which would have been disclosed if this announcement had been prepared in accordance with the laws of jurisdictions outside of the UK.

Unless otherwise determined by Bidco or required by the Takeover Code, and permitted by applicable law and regulation, the Acquisition will not be made available, directly or indirectly, in, into or from, or by the use of mails or any means or instrumentality (including, but not limited to, facsimile, email or other electronic transmission, telex or telephone) of interstate or foreign commerce of, or any facility of a national, state or other securities exchange of, any Restricted Jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws in that jurisdiction.

Copies of this announcement and any formal documentation relating to the Acquisition are not being, and must not be, directly or indirectly, mailed or otherwise forwarded, distributed or sent in, into or from any Restricted Jurisdiction or any jurisdiction where to do so would violate the laws of that jurisdiction and persons receiving such documents (including custodians, nominees and trustees) must not mail or otherwise forward, distribute or send them in or into or from any Restricted Jurisdiction. If the Acquisition is implemented by way of a Takeover Offer (unless otherwise permitted by applicable law or regulation), the Takeover Offer may not be made, directly or indirectly, in or into, or by the use of mails or any other means or instrumentality (including, without limitation, facsimile, email or other electronic transmission, telex or telephone) of interstate or foreign commerce of, or any facility of a national, state or other securities exchange of any Restricted Jurisdiction and the Takeover Offer may not be capable of acceptance by any such use, means, instrumentality or facilities or from within any Restricted Jurisdiction.

Sanctioned Shareholders

If any Intertek Shares are Sanctions Affected Shares: (a) no right, title or interest in any such Sanctions Affected Shares will be transferred to Bidco on the Effective Date where such transfer would cause a person to violate Sanctions, or be exposed to a reasonable risk of being targeted as a Sanctioned Person; (b) no holder of Sanctions Affected Shares will receive any Cash Consideration under the Acquisition on the Effective Date; and (c) under the terms of the Acquisition and the Scheme, subject to compliance with any Sanctions, with effect on and from the Effective Date, all rights attaching to any such Sanctions Affected Shares will cease to be exercisable until such time as the right, title or interest in such shares is transferred to Bidco.

Additional Information for US Investors

The Acquisition is being made to acquire the shares of an English company by means of a scheme of arrangement provided for under English law. A transaction effected by means of a scheme of arrangement is not subject to the tender offer rules or the proxy solicitation rules under the US Exchange Act. Accordingly, the Scheme is subject to disclosure requirements and practices applicable in the UK to schemes of arrangement, which are different from the disclosure requirements of the US tender offer rules and the US proxy solicitation rules. The financial information included in this announcement has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and thus may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the US. If Bidco exercises its right to implement the acquisition of the Intertek Shares by way of a Takeover Offer, such offer will be made in compliance with applicable US laws and regulations.

The receipt of cash pursuant to the Acquisition by a US holder as consideration for the transfer of its Scheme Shares pursuant to the Scheme may be a taxable transaction for United States federal income tax purposes and under applicable United States state and local, as well as foreign and other, tax laws. Each Intertek Shareholder is urged to consult their independent professional adviser immediately regarding the tax consequences of the Acquisition applicable to them.

It may be difficult for US holders to enforce their rights and claims arising out of the US federal securities laws, since Bidco and Intertek are located in countries other than the US, and some or all of their officers and directors may be residents of countries other than the US. US holders may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court's judgement.

In accordance with normal UK practice and pursuant to Rule 14e-5(b) of the US Exchange Act, Bidco or its nominees, or its brokers (acting as agents), may from time to time make certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, Intertek Shares outside of the US, other than pursuant to the Acquisition, until the date on which the Acquisition and/or Scheme becomes effective, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn. Also, in accordance with the Takeover Code, normal United Kingdom market practice and Rule 14e-5(b) of the US Exchange Act, each of Morgan Stanley, Barclays, J.P. Morgan Cazenove and Goldman Sachs International (and/or certain of each of their affiliates) will continue to act as an exempt principal trader in Intertek Shares on the London Stock Exchange. These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices. Any information about such purchases and activities by exempt principal traders will be disclosed as required in the UK, will be reported to a Regulatory Information Service and will be available on the London Stock Exchange website at www.londonstockexchange.com.

Disclosure requirements of the Takeover Code

Under Rule 8.3(a) of the Takeover Code, any person who is interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of an offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror (being any offeror other than an offeror in respect of which it has been announced that its offer is, or is likely to be, solely in cash) must make an Opening Position Disclosure following the commencement of the Offer Period and, if later, following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. An Opening Position Disclosure must contain details of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s). An Opening Position Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(a) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th Business Day following the commencement of the Offer Period and, if appropriate, by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the 10th Business Day following the announcement in which any securities exchange offeror is first identified. Relevant persons who deal in the relevant securities of the offeree company or of a securities exchange offeror prior to the deadline for making an Opening Position Disclosure must instead make a Dealing Disclosure.

Under Rule 8.3(b) of the Takeover Code, any person who is, or becomes interested in 1 per cent. or more of any class of relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror must make a Dealing Disclosure if the person deals in any relevant securities of the offeree company or of any securities exchange offeror. A Dealing Disclosure must contain details of the dealing concerned and of the person's interests and short positions in, and rights to subscribe for, any relevant securities of each of (i) the offeree company and (ii) any securities exchange offeror(s), save to the extent that these details have previously been disclosed under Rule 8. A Dealing Disclosure by a person to whom Rule 8.3(b) applies must be made by no later than 3.30 p.m. (London time) on the Business Day following the date of the relevant dealing.

If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire or control an interest in relevant securities of an offeree company or a securities exchange offeror, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3. Opening Position Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company and by any offeror and Dealing Disclosures must also be made by the offeree company, by any offeror and by any persons acting in concert with any of them (see Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.4).

Details of the offeree and offeror companies in respect of whose relevant securities, Opening Position Disclosures and Dealing Disclosures must be made can be found in the Disclosure Table on the Takeover Panel's website at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk, including details of the number of relevant securities in issue, when the Offer Period commenced and when any offeror was first identified. You should contact the Panel's Market Surveillance Unit on +44 (0)20 7638 0129 if you are in any doubt as to whether you are required to make an Opening Position Disclosure or a Dealing Disclosure.
