Notes to editors:

 

Software Circle plc (AIM: SFT) has a mission: to be a leading serial acquirer
and operator of Vertical Market Software businesses in the UK and Ireland - a
permanent home for software leaders, teams, and customers. These are
mission-critical systems, deeply embedded in the day-to-day workflows of
users.

 

We help founders find the right exit strategy, acquiring businesses at
appropriate valuations, supporting their organic growth over time, and
reinvesting the free cash flow they generate into further value-accretive
opportunities. We are building a group that gives shareholders diversified
exposure to these software businesses, with discipline, alignment, and
operational know-how.

 

Software Circle continues operations in an independent, decentralised way, and
maintains the entrepreneurial spirit and culture that exists in the businesses
acquired, enabling organic growth to be driven. Our goal is to create an
environment where motivated teams can do their best work for the benefit of
the most important stakeholder: the end customer.
