Results of Capital Raise
Sirius Real Estate Limited ("Sirius" or the "Company" and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group")
is pleased to announce the result of the Capital Raise set out in the Company's announcement of 16
February 2026 ("Capital Raise Announcement"), the net proceeds of which enables the Company to
execute on two attractive acquisition opportunities in Germany with a particular focus on defence-
related assets and tenants in the near term, with an estimated total value of approximately €130m
(£113m).
The Capital Raise will in aggregate comprise the issue of 75,490,196 new Ordinary Shares (the "Offer
Shares"), which will raise gross proceeds of £77m. The Offer Shares represent approximately 5.0 per
cent. of the existing issued ordinary share capital of the Company prior to the Capital Raise.
The Offer Price of 102.0 pence represents a premium of approximately 1.0 per cent. to the closing share
price of 101.0 pence on 16 February 2026 and a premium of approximately 1.4 per cent. to the thirty-
day volume weighted average price on the JSE of 100.6 pence as at 16 February 2026.
Berenberg and Peel Hunt acted as joint global co-ordinators and joint bookrunners in respect of the
Placing. PSG Capital acted as SA adviser, sole bookrunner and placing agent in respect of the South
Africa Placing.
The Company consulted with a number of its shareholders prior to the Capital Raise and has respected
the principles of pre-emption through the allocation process, while also allowing the participation of new
long-only shareholders. The Company is pleased by the strong support it has received from new and
existing shareholders.
Admission
Application will be made for the admission of the Offer Shares to trading on the London Stock
Exchange's main market for listed securities and for listing and trading on the premium segment of the
main board of the JSE. UK Admission is expected to become effective at 8.00 a.m. (London time) on
20 February 2026 or such later date as the Banks, the Company and PSG Capital may agree being no
later than 06 March 2026. JSE Admission is expected to become effective at 9.00 a.m. (Johannesburg
time) on 20 February 2026 or such later date as the Banks, the Company and PSG Capital may agree
being no later than 06 March 2026.
The Offer Shares will, when issued, be credited as fully paid and rank pari passu in all respects with the
existing issued Ordinary Shares of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive all
dividends and other distributions declared, made or paid.
Following Admission, the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue in the Company will be
1,588,665,840. The Company does not hold any shares in treasury and, therefore, following Admission,
the number of voting shares in issue in the Company will be 1,588,665,840. This figure may be used
by shareholders as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required
to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the Disclosure Guidance
and Transparency Rules.
The Capital Raise is conditional on, inter alia (i) the Placing Agreement not having been terminated in
accordance with its terms and (ii) UK Admission and JSE Admission occurring.
Director and PDMR participation in the Capital Raise
As part of the Capital Raise, the CEO, certain PDMRs and certain other Directors have subscribed for
new Ordinary Shares ("Subscription Shares") in the capital of the Company at the Offer Price (the
"Subscription"), contributing approximately £100,000 in aggregate.
The participation in the Capital Raise by related parties (as defined in the JSE Listings Requirements)
occurred on the basis outlined in the Capital Raise Announcement, as permitted in terms of the
resolutions adopted at the Company's most recent AGM and in compliance with the JSE Listings
Requirements.
Capitalised terms used but not defined in this announcement shall have the meaning given to them in
the Capital Raise Announcement.
Commenting on the transaction, Andrew Coombs, Chief Executive Officer of Sirius Real Estate Limited,
said:
"The success of this fund raise, which was multiple times oversubscribed and was priced in line with
our latest adjusted NAV, demonstrates the continued support amongst the investment community for
our strategy, the quality of our existing portfolio, as well as the opportunity for further growth from our
pipeline. The two German assets we are buying are in established locations, with strong tenants, high
occupancy and stable day one income. They are complementary to our existing value-add portfolio in
Germany and the UK and increase our exposure to the fast growing defence sector. We will continue
to progress our pipeline with a firm focus on disciplined capital allocation and recycling to achieve our
recently increased medium term FFO target of €175m."

About Sirius Real Estate Limited
Sirius is a property company listed on the equity shares (commercial companies) category of the
London Stock Exchange and the premium segment of the main board of the JSE Limited. It is a leading
owner and operator of branded business and industrial parks providing conventional space and flexible
workspace in Germany and the U.K. As of 30 September 2025, the Group's portfolio comprised 153
assets let to 10,958 tenants with a total book value of €2.8 billion, generating a total rent roll of €242.5m.
Sirius also holds a 35% stake in Titanium, its €350.0m+ German-focused joint venture with clients of
BNPP AM Alts.
The Company's strategy centres on acquiring business parks at attractive yields and integrating them
into its network of sites - both under the Sirius and BizSpace names and alongside a range of branded
products. The business then seeks to reconfigure and upgrade existing and vacant space to appeal to
the local market via intensive asset management and investment, and may then choose to refinance or
dispose of assets selectively once they meet maturity, to release capital for new investment. This active
approach allows the Company to generate attractive returns for shareholders through growing rental
income, improving cost recoveries and capital values, and enhancing returns through securing efficient
financing terms.

Allocations Soft pre-emption has been adhered to in the allocations process.
Management was involved in the allocations process, which has been
carried out in compliance with the UK MiFID II Allocation requirements.
Allocations made outside of soft pre-emption were preferentially directed
towards existing shareholders in excess of their pro rata, or new
shareholders from a long perspective and wall-crossed accounts.
Consultation Berenberg, Peel Hunt and PSG Capital undertook a pre-launch wall-
crossing process, including consultation with major shareholders, to the
extent reasonably practicable and permitted by law.
Retail investors The Capital Raise included a Retail Offer, for a total of 1,960,785 Retail
Offer Shares, via the RetailBook platform. Retail investors, who
participated in the Retail Offer, were able to do so at the same Placing Price
as all other investors participating in the Capital Raise.

investors in the UK. Investors were able to participate through RetailBook's
platform via its partner network. Investors had the ability to participate in
this transaction through ISAs and SIPPs, as well as General Investment
Accounts (GIAs).The use of the RetailBook platform meant that, to the
extent practicable on the transaction timetable, eligible UK retail investors
had the opportunity to participate in the Capital Raise alongside institutional
investors.
Allocations in the Retail Offer were preferentially directed towards existing
shareholders in keeping with the principle of soft pre-emption.

UK Product Governance Requirements
Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements of Chapter 3 of the FCA Handbook
Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the "UK Product Governance
Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise,
which any "manufacturer" (for the purposes of the UK Product Governance Requirements) may
otherwise have with respect thereto, the Placing Shares have been subject to a product approval
process, which has determined that such Placing Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market
of retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and eligible
counterparties, each as defined in the FCA Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; and (ii)
eligible for distribution through all permitted distribution channels (the "Target Market Assessment").
Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, "distributors" (for the purposes of the UK Product
Governance Requirements) should note that: the price of the Placing Shares may decline and
investors could lose all or part of their investment; the Placing Shares offer no guaranteed income and
no capital protection; and an investment in the Placing Shares is compatible only with investors who
do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an
appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an
investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom.
The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or
regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Placing. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding
the Target Market Assessment, the Banks will only procure investors who meet the criteria of
professional clients and eligible counterparties.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does not constitute: (a) an assessment of
suitability or appropriateness for the purposes of Chapters 9A or 10A respectively of the FCA
Handbook Conduct of Business Sourcebook; or (b) a recommendation to any investor or group of
investors to invest in, or purchase or take any other action whatsoever with respect to the Placing
Shares. Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of
the Placing Shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
