RC FORNAX PLC

("RC Fornax" or the "Company")

Contract Extension with Tier-1 Defence Client

 

RC Fornax (AIM:RCFX), the UK-based consultancy delivering outcome-based
engineering solutions to the defence sector's most critical platforms -
accredited, in-demand, and built to scale, is pleased to announce that it has
received a further contract extension valued at approximately £470,000 from
an existing tier-1 defence client.

 

The extension represents the next incremental phase of delivery under an
ongoing engagement and relates to the continued provision of specialist
engineering services to support a defined programme. The next delivery cycle
will be executed by a dedicated team of five specialists over a six-month
period, as RC Fornax continues to expand its support for this client.

 

This award follows the Company's strong start to FY26 and reflects the
continued increase in customer engagement being seen across the defence sector
following publication of the Strategic Defence Review ("SDR"), alongside the
operational improvements implemented by the Company in recent months. While
many defence contracts are subject to confidentiality restrictions, the
extension provides further evidence of the follow-on work and contract
extensions beginning to emerge from earlier project wins.

 

Paul Reeves, Chief Executive Officer of RC Fornax, commented:

"This latest extension reflects the continued confidence of a major defence
customer in RC Fornax's specialist engineering capability and delivery model.
It represents the next phase of an established engagement and demonstrates how
early project success is translating into further incremental delivery as
programmes progress.

 

"Following a strong first quarter, we continue to see increased customer
engagement across our client base, supported by the operational improvements
implemented over recent months. While much of our work remains subject to
confidentiality, this extension provides further evidence of the follow-on
activity and contract growth beginning to emerge from our recent commercial
momentum, as we continue to expand our support for existing customers."
