Beeks Financial Cloud Group plc
("Beeks" or the "Company")
Proximity Cloud Wins
c.£1.9 million Proximity Cloud win with major South African bank and £2m
extension with large FX broker
08 December 2025 - Beeks Financial Cloud Group plc (AIM: BKS), a cloud
computing and connectivity provider for financial markets, is pleased to
announce continued sales momentum with two further notable wins for Beeks'
Proximity Cloud offering, a high-performance, dedicated and client-owned
trading environment. As with the contracts announced last week, revenue from
both contracts is expected to commence in H2 FY26, further underpinning the
Board's FY26 expectations.
Five year contract with a major South African bank
The contract with the South African bank has an initial aggregate value of
c.£1.9 million over five years with the potential for further expansion. The
bank is a major user of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange's (JSE) Colo 2.0
service, which is delivered through the Beeks Exchange Cloud offering, and is
additionally deploying Proximity Cloud outside of South Africa in two London
locations, with the onboarding process underway. This win underlines the
upsell potential afforded by each Exchange Cloud installation, which showcase
Beeks' scalable and high performance infrastructure to multiple customers of
each exchange.
FX broker continues to expand the use of Proximity Cloud
Further to the extension announced on 3 December 2025, Beeks has signed an
additional £2m extension to the Proximity Cloud contract with the same large
FX broker, bringing the total contract to £6m over five years.
Gordon McArthur, CEO at Beeks, commented: "We continue to see strong sales
momentum as financial services organisations accelerate their cloud
strategies. The South African bank win demonstrates the major upsell potential
of our Exchange Cloud engagements, providing financial institutions with the
confidence to adopt our scalable and secure cloud environments in additional
locations. Meanwhile, the rate at which we have expanded with the FX broker
and the considerable total contract value, demonstrates the size of expansion
opportunity when dealing with major organisations. We continue to look to the
future with confidence, supported by a strong pipeline across each of our
offerings."
