Playstack Platform Contract

TruFin is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Playstack Limited
("Playstack"), a leading UK games publisher, has signed a significant contract
with a global technology platform for a new game scheduled for release in H2
2026. The game is being internally developed and will therefore be owned
exclusively by Playstack.

The multi-year agreement includes a series of contractual payments, as well as
performance-based fees payable following the game's launch.

This contract materially enhances Playstack's first-party IP portfolio and
increases the value of its overall portfolio. It also strengthens the
visibility of Playstack's revenues for the coming years.

Despite being early in the year, this contract underpins TruFin's confidence
that it will deliver yet another year of profitable growth in 2026 for
shareholders.

The Company will today separately announce a share buyback programme for up to
£6m.

James van den Bergh, Chief Executive Officer commented:

"We are delighted that Playstack has secured another major contract with a
global technology platform. The development of first-party IP further
strengthens Playstack's strategic value, and we look forward to sharing more
details about this exciting release in due course.

Capital allocation is one of the Board's most important responsibilities. Our
capital allocation framework reflects a simple philosophy: first ensure our
businesses are fully funded to create value; maintain a prudent buffer to
cushion the Group from external shocks; and, where there are no superior
risk-adjusted return opportunities, return surplus capital to shareholders
when our shares trade below intrinsic value.

Accordingly, with a strong balance sheet, increasing profitability across the
Group and growing confidence in our outlook, we believe TruFin is well
positioned to deliver disciplined capital returns alongside long-term growth,
and I am pleased to announce today a share buyback of up to £6 million."
