Made.com Group Plc

("MADE" or the "Company")

Update on Formal Sale Process ("FSP") and Strategic Review

Further to the announcement on 25 October 2022, the board of MADE provides the following update.

Following yesterday's developments, the board of MADE's operating subsidiary Made Design Ltd ("MDL") has considered the appropriate next steps.

In light of the fact that MDL is reliant on MADE for any further funding requirements and in order to preserve value for its creditors, the board of MDL has taken the decision to temporarily suspend new customer orders. This decision remains under review and a further announcement will be made as appropriate.

The board of MADE will continue to look to preserve value for its creditors and shareholders in light of this decision.

About MADE

MADE is the leading digitally native lifestyle brand in home, disrupting the industry with high-quality, exclusive designs underpinned by a responsible, small-batch production model, enabling customers to realise the vision of their homes.

In addition to its in-house design team and collaborations with leading designers, MADE champions independent talent, offering them a platform and access to a scalable supply chain that makes their ideas reality. These partners bring their unique perspective in the creation of bold statement collections and work with MADE to produce iconic designs.

Operating at the intersection of design and technology, proprietary algorithms take consumers on a journey: from outreach that makes designs discoverable to a frictionless digital shopping experience. Combined with an innovative 'just-in-time' order model, MADE provides a fresh and ever-changing range, with nine new collections launched every week and more than 8,000 active SKUs in the catalogue as at 30 June 2022.

Founded in 2010, MADE sells its products across the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, France, Belgium, Spain, Ireland and the Netherlands via its e-commerce platform. The brand also has seven showrooms across Europe, with flagship brand experiences in London and Paris.
