Statement regarding THG Beauty and the recent share price movement

THG PLC ("THG" or the "Group") notes the fall in the share price yesterday and confirms that it knows of no notifiable reason for the share price movement.

In response to recent media speculation regarding the restriction of supplies to THG Beauty, THG can also confirm that:

-- Dermalogica has not placed and is not looking to place any restrictions on its trading relationship with THG Beauty, including with regard to the supply of stock.

-- The Dermalogica and THG Beauty trading relationship is over 10 years in length and whilst it remains very positive the overall revenues generated are de minimis to the Group, at c.0.1% of FY 2021 sales.

-- It is not aware of any other key supplier to THG Beauty who has or who intends to reduce supply or take any similar steps in relation to THG Beauty.

-- THG Beauty added over 200 new beauty brands to its retail destination sites, on a net basis, during FY 2021.

THG entered the beauty market at the end of 2010 and, as THG Beauty, has since grown into a business delivering prestige beauty sales of GBP1.1bn during its 2021 financial year. THG remains focused on building long-term relationships with its suppliers.

THG Beauty is the pre-eminent, digital-first brand owner, retailer and manufacturer in the prestige beauty market, providing a global route to market for over 1,000 third-party beauty brands. This makes THG a key partner for brands looking to deliver growth in digital sales.
