reverse stock split financial
"announced the implementation of a reverse stock split whereby every 25 outstanding ARQQ ordinary shares..."
A reverse stock split is when a company reduces the number of its shares outstanding, making each share more valuable. For example, if you own 100 shares worth $1 each, a 1-for-10 reverse split would turn your 100 shares into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to boost their stock price and appear more stable to investors.
beneficially owns financial
"The reporting person beneficially owns 602,306 Business Combination Warrants, which, if exercised in full..."
Beneficially owns means a person or entity enjoys the economic benefits and control of a security even if the legal title or registration is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and profits from a car that is registered to a friend: you use it, benefit from it, and make decisions about it even though the official paperwork lists someone else. For investors, this matters because it reveals who truly controls shares, affects voting power, potential conflicts of interest, and regulatory disclosure obligations.
exercise price financial
"Each Business Combination Warrant has an exercise price of $11.50 and can be exercised at any time..."
The exercise price is the fixed amount at which you can buy or sell an asset, like a stock, when using an options contract. It matters because it helps determine whether exercising the option will be profitable or not, depending on the current market price. Think of it as the set price you agree on today to buy or sell later.
indirect ownership financial
"Beneficially owned through Heritage Assets SCSp appears as the nature of ownership for these warrants..."

Explanation of Responses:
1. On September 19, 2024, Arqit Quantum Inc. (ARQQ) announced the implementation of a reverse stock split whereby every 25 outstanding ARQQ ordinary shares were consolidated into one ordinary share, par value $0.0025 per share. Each Business Combination Warrant has an exercise price of $11.50 and can be exercised at any time, at the holder's election, to purchase 0.04 of an ARQQ ordinary share on a post-reverse stock split basis, and cannot be exercised for fractional shares.

The reporting person beneficially owns 602,306 Business Combination Warrants, which, if exercised in full, would be equivalent to 24,092.24 ARQQ ordinary shares on a post-reverse stock split basis.
