RTC Group Plc

("RTC", "the Company" or "the Group")

Trading Update and Notice of Results

RTC Group Plc (AIM:RTC.L) is pleased to announce that, despite a challenging
UK economy which has impacted recruitment generally, and the significant
additional cost burdens imposed by the government's decision to increase
employers' national insurance contributions in the Autumn Budget 2024, the
Group's expects to deliver a set of results for the year ending 31 December
2025, that are broadly in line with last year.

Whilst there is a broad feeling of uncertainty across many industry sectors in
the United Kingdom, we firmly believe that our group business model of
building long-term strategic relationships with blue chip clients, in both
domestic and international markets, will continue to provide long-term order
book opportunities for RTC, as many of our clients are committed to extended
investment horizons.

We believe that our Group's strong and proven capabilities in relation to
strategically important assets on which the country depends will ensure value
longevity for our shareholders across a broad range of long-term investment
programmes and for an extended period into the future.

Whilst we note the current well-advertised softness in the rail sector, an
important area for our company, the healthy progress made by our energy
business in particular, is a strong validation of the successful diversified
strategy pursued by the Group for a number of years. We therefore remain
cautiously optimistic of our future prospects as the 2025 trading period comes
to a close.

At the 2025 AGM the Company outlined plans to drive increased shareholder
engagement. As part of this process, we have engaged Investor Meet, a UK based
platform which connects public companies and investors digitally for live and
on-demand presentations and Q&A sessions. Our first investor briefing
through that medium will be following the release of our audited results
announcement for the year ended 31 December 2025, on or around 23 March 2026.
Beyond this, we are strongly committed to ensuring the availability of
broker's research both to our shareholders and to the broader investment
community following the announcement of our 2025 results.

Andy Pendlebury, Chairman and CEO, said:

"I am delighted the Group expects to deliver such a strong set of results
given the current market conditions. Results which will further exhibit the
resilience and potential of our operations.

I believe the Group has continued to demonstrate the strength of its offering
through its strong and growing order book across its key target markets. Our
balance sheet continues to operate free of term debt, enhancing year-on-year
earnings and net value per share for its shareholders and positioning us well
to take advantage of growth opportunities as they arise.

At both Group and subsidiary level, we have strong management teams who have
continued to navigate market challenges and opportunities to a high degree of
effectiveness.

Our Group, whilst mindful of the uncertainties facing both the domestic and
global economy, has many reasons to remain positive about its future prospects
