- No changes have been made to the other terms of the offer.

What else do investors need to know?
The extension of the takeover offer provides Accent Group shareholders with additional time to assess whether to accept Frasers Group's bid. Investors should note that the offer's terms and price remain unchanged despite this extension.
Frasers Group, which already owns or controls a portion of Accent Group shares, is seeking to acquire all remaining ordinary shares. There is no indication of revised terms, so the original offer conditions still apply.

Accent Group shareholders now have until at least 30 September 2026 to make a decision. Unless further extended or withdrawn, this is the final date for the current bid.
Shareholders are encouraged to review the notice of extension and consider any updates that may be released. Ongoing transparency from both Accent Group and Frasers Group will help investors stay informed about the process.
