H1 Trading update

 

Celebrus Technologies plc (AIM: CLBS, "the Group", the "Company", "Celebrus"),
the AIM-listed data solutions provider, provides the following trading update
for the six months to 30 September 2025.

Despite the continued uncertain economic conditions, results(1) are expected
to be in line with management expectations, with revenues of approximately
$10.3 million (H1 FY25: $17.2 million), and software revenues of approximately
$7.8 million (H1 FY25: $11.2 million). The adjusted loss before tax(2) is
expected to be approximately $1.4 million (H1 FY25: profit of $1.0 million).

The lower revenues and adjusted loss before tax reflect the impact of the move
to straight-line revenue recognition as a result of changes in the Group's
contracts with customers, as detailed in the final results announcement in
July 2025. Under those changes, the software license revenues from all
Celebrus contracts entered into from 1 April 2025 are recognized on a monthly
basis instead of being recognized annually up front in each year of a
contract.

Celebrus annual recurring revenue ("Celebrus ARR"(3)) increased 14.7% during
the first half to $15.6 million (31 March 2025: $13.6 million, 30 September
2024: $12.9 million).

The cash balance at the half year end was $27.2 million (31 March 2025: $31.5
million, 30 September 2024: $25.5 million). The Group remains debt free.

The Group will publish its half year results for the six months to 30
September 2025 on Tuesday 02 December 2025, and these will be presented later
that day live via the Investor Meet Company platform.  Further details will
be announced in due course.

 

1 The trading performance reported in this statement is based on unaudited
management accounts

2 Adjusted loss before tax is calculated before amortization of intangibles,
foreign exchange gains/losses, share based payment charges and one-off
reorganization costs.

3 'Celebrus ARR' is defined as the amount of revenue contracted at a point in
time, derived from Celebrus software, that is expected to recur within the
next twelve months. It excludes non-Celebrus managed services and third-party
software license revenue.
