Board Changes

Calnex Solutions plc (AIM: CLX), a leading provider of test and measurement
solutions for the global telecommunications sector, is pleased to announce the
appointment of Helen Kelisky as Non-Executive Director of the Company, with
immediate effect.

Helen Kelisky brings over 30 years' of technology sales leadership experience
and a track record of driving top line growth, leading national and
international businesses. Helen is currently Managing Director of Google Cloud
in the UK and Ireland, responsible for leading its sales strategy and
go-to-market sales operations. Previous roles include Board member and Vice
President of cloud sales at Salesforce UKI, and Vice President of Cloud at
IBM, where she spearheaded the $1 billion+ business for cloud services and
software Sales and Delivery.

Helen has been recognised as one of the 100 Most Influential Women in UK Tech,
one of the top 50 UK Sales Leaders and currently sits on the Board of Women in
Telecommunications and Technology, a non-profit networking group focused on
education and enhancing women's careers.

Following 13 years on the Board, Ann Budge has informed the Board that she
will be retiring as a Non-executive Director with effect from 28 February
2023. Ann was an early-stage investor in Calnex and was pivotal in bringing
the Discovery Investment Fund syndicate as investors when the Group raised
seed investment in 2007. Since this time, Ann has made a significant
contribution to Calnex, in particular by supporting Tommy Cook, CEO and
Founder, as he sought to establish Calnex as a leader in the test and
measurement sector.

Stephen Davidson, Non-Executive Chairman of Calnex, commented:

"We are excited to welcome Helen to the Board. Her experience across the cloud
and data centre world will undoubtedly be of immense value to Calnex as we
exploit the growth in the testing market, with the need for greater efficiency
and performance in data centre operations.

"On behalf of Tommy and the rest of the Board, I would like to thank Ann for
the valuable role she has played in Calnex's growth journey, helping to
establish a solid platform to support the Group's financial and strategic
ambitions, and we wish her well for the future."
