RNS Number : 1806G  Quantum Base Holdings PLC  05 November 2025

5 November 2025

 

Quantum Base Holdings plc

("Quantum Base" or the "Company")

Board Change

 

Quantum Base (AIM: QUBE), the quantum science company focused on creating a
new global standard in authentication, announces that, having successfully
seen the Company through its IPO and first Annual Report as an AIM-quoted
company, David Broadbent will be stepping down from the position of Chief
Financial Officer ("CFO"), and from the Board of Quantum Base, with immediate
effect.

Anthony Clayden, an experienced financial leader with a 26-year career
spanning numerous executive and advisory positions, primarily in technology
and life sciences, has taken the role of interim Head of Finance while the
Company initiates the process to find a permanent CFO.

Anthony has previously supported six AIM-quoted companies as either CFO or
Head of Finance and has advised multiple existing CFOs and boards on specific
projects. Prior to these roles, Anthony worked in Corporate Finance with PwC
and KPMG, advising on trade sales, fundraisings and acquisitions. He has a BSc
(Hons) in Natural Sciences from Durham University and is a Qualified Chartered
Accountant (FCA).

Mark Fahy, Chairman of Quantum Base, commented:

"I would first like to thank David for his invaluable contribution to Quantum
Base. David was instrumental in our AIM IPO and delivering our first set of
audited results, and I'm very grateful for his hard work in building a strong
foundation for the Company's growth. On behalf of the Board, I wish him all
the very best for the future.

"Whilst we undergo the process to find a permanent CFO, I'm delighted that
Anthony is in place as interim Head of Finance. Anthony comes with a strong
track record of success across a wide portfolio of permanent roles and project
work. As a vastly experienced financial leader and advisor, there are very few
situations that he has not encountered, and this operational expertise and
strategic flexibility will be well-suited to our needs during this interim
period.

"Anthony has already been supporting Quantum Base in the production of its
first Annual Report as an AIM-quoted company and is therefore well-acquainted
with the Group's operations and reporting processes. His appointment ensures
immediate continuity in financial leadership as the Company commences the
process to appoint a permanent CFO."

About Quantum Base

Quantum Base is a quantum science company creating a new global standard in
authentication through its patented Q-ID solution - unbreakable and
non-replicable authenticity tags that can be applied to a vast array of
products, significantly mitigating counterfeiting.

The technology underpinning Q-IDs harnesses randomness at the atomic level,
and this volume and variation ensure that there is virtually an infinite
number of combinations that can be created. The Q-ID is practically impossible
to replicate using even the most advanced available technology.

Q-IDs can be applied to almost any print line and can be entirely
non-intrusive to a product's existing design, meaning that they can be
utilised in a vast number of end markets. The authentication process to
identify printed tags is undertaken using existing and unmodified smartphone
technology, providing easy authentication and proven security for global
brands, governments and consumers.
