RNS Number : 1744R  Begbies Traynor Group PLC  02 February 2026

 

 

Begbies Traynor Group plc

(the "Company" or "Group")

Rebrand and change of Company Name

Rebrand will see Begbies Traynor Group plc become BTG Consulting plc

Begbies Traynor Group plc, the financial and real estate advisory group, is
pleased to announce it is rebranding and will change its name to "BTG
Consulting plc" to more accurately represent the Group's broad and evolving
range of services and its strategy to deliver high-quality advisory and
transactional solutions to its clients.

Background to the rebrand and name change

Following a decade of growth, the Group has evolved from its heritage in
insolvency and restructuring to become a broad-based financial and real estate
advisory business. Over the course of the last ten years, it has reported a
CAGR in revenue, adjusted profit before tax and dividends of 13%, 20% and 8%,
respectively.

Accordingly, to reflect the evolution of its business and breadth of services,
the name of the Group will change to BTG Consulting plc and operations have
been rebranded with a common BTG brand.

With immediate effect, BTG activities will be marketed under eight service
lines: restructuring, deal advisory, funding and insurance, financial
advisory, valuations and asset advisory, agency and auctions, projects and
developments, and property management and insurance. This better demonstrates
the breadth of the expertise and capabilities across BTG's professional teams
to service and assist clients.

Formal insolvency appointments will use BTG Begbies Traynor as a sub-brand,
reflecting its market-leading position for UK insolvencies. Similarly, to
reflect its strong market position, BTG's real estate advisory business will
operate using BTG Eddisons as a sub-brand.

Management and reporting

This updated branding follows the announcement in September 2025 in which BTG
established a new leadership structure for the business as it positioned
itself for the next phase of growth.

The Group will continue to report financial information as two operating
divisions:

·      Restructuring and advisory: restructuring (including formal
administrations and liquidations), deal advisory, funding and insurance, and
financial advisory service lines; and

·      Real estate: valuations and asset advisory, agency and auctions,
projects and development, and property management and insurance service lines.

This rebranding, combined with the Group's broad range of services,
diversified client base, organic growth initiatives and pipeline of
acquisition opportunities, delivers confidence to build on its track record of
growth.

Regulatory information concerning the Company's name change

The Company has applied to Companies House to change its name from "Begbies
Traynor Group plc" to "BTG Consulting plc", such change to become effective
when the Company receives its change of name certificate.  A further
announcement will be issued confirming this and the date when trading under
the new company name will be expected to commence.

The Company will also update its TIDM code to "BTG" once the Group's change of
name becomes effective.

In conjunction with its name change, the Company's website address will also
change to www.btguk.com
(https://protect.checkpoint.com/v2/r06/___http:/www.btguk.com___.ZXV3MjpuZXh0MTU6YzpvOjQ2ZTczY2I2ODJjNGIxM2IwNWY1ZTA5NzYwMDBiZGJiOjc6M2E5ZTpiN2ZhMGViMDE3ZTVkNjkyOWQ5ZjZjMjQ2ZDRlYzI2ODhhNmU1YjFlZmYyZDJiNmYxYjMwYjEwOGUyNWE1MjFiOnA6RjpU)
. All information required by Rule 26 of the AIM Rules for Companies will be
located within "Shareholder information" on the "Investor relations" section
of the website with effect from 8.00am on 2 February 2026.

Mark Fry, CEO, said:

"This is an exciting development for the Group and enables us to bring our
market-leading financial and real estate advisory businesses together under
common branding. This change reflects the evolution of the Group in recent
years into a broad-based advisory business.

"The rebranding to BTG will enable us to further leverage our expertise to
enhance, protect and realise the value of our clients' businesses, assets and
investments; providing strategic advice and solutions that drive growth,
mitigate risk, and deliver lasting value."

Ric Traynor, Executive Chairman, said:

"The evolution to BTG reflects the significant growth and development of the
business in recent years and our plans to deliver our medium-term targets and
beyond. The updated branding is better aligned with the broad range of
services and capabilities available within the Group and our ability to assist
our clients across multiple areas of expertise."
