13 April 2023, London - Today, Diageo plc
("Diageo") announces that it
intends to submit applications for the delisting of its ordinary
shares (ISIN: GB0002374006) from each of Euronext Paris and
Euronext Dublin.
The
decision by Diageo to delist was taken following a review of the

its listings on Euronext Paris and Euronext Dublin.
The
delisting of Diageo's ordinary shares from Euronext Paris is
subject to the approval of the board of directors of Euronext Paris
and the delisting of Diageo's ordinary shares from Euronext Dublin
is subject to the approval of Euronext Dublin. The delistings will
not have any impact on Diageo's day-to-day operations in France or
Ireland.
It is
anticipated that Diageo's delisting from Euronext Paris will take
effect on or around 26 May 2023 and that Diageo's delisting from
Euronext Dublin will take effect on or around 30 May 2023, subject
to the approval of Euronext Paris and Euronext Dublin
respectively.
Diageo's
listings on the London Stock Exchange (DGE) and the New York Stock
Exchange (DEO) will not be impacted by the delistings from Euronext
Paris and Euronext Dublin.
Investors
whose shares are listed on Euronext Paris or Euronext Dublin are
encouraged to consult with their own investment advisers as to how
the delistings may affect them. Additional information about the
delistings can also be found on Diageo's website
