£1.15 million New Contract Award

 

Westminster Group Plc (AIM: WSG), a leading supplier of managed services and
technology-based security solutions worldwide, is pleased to announce that it
has secured an extension contract award valued at an additional circa £1.15
million.

 

The contract is an extension to the contract previously announced on 30 June
2025 to provide a Parliamentary Broadcast System for the parliamentary
debating chamber of an East African Parliament.

 

The system combines a state-of-the-art multimedia conferencing system with
broadcast quality IP cameras and audio system for recording and broadcasting
parliamentary debates to media outlets and social media platforms. The
advanced multimedia touch screen allows attendees to select language, agenda
and meeting data, internet access, voting and identification functionality.

 

Commenting on the new contract award, Westminster's Chief Executive
Officer, Peter Fowler, said:

 

"I have previously announced that the global economic situation had caused a
number of technology contract awards to be delayed due to customer's budget
constraints. I am delighted, therefore, to be able to announce our technology
division has secured its fourth significant contract win over the past three
weeks.

 

"With three recent contracts already announced totalling circa £900,000, this
latest contract, valued at circa £1.15 million, brings the total order value
for larger technology contracts secured in the last three weeks to circa
£2.05 million, in addition to numerous smaller contracts being secured.

 

"I am particularly pleased to be able to announce this significant extension
contract for the East African Parliament, so soon after the initial contract
award was announced on 30 June 2025. At that time, I stated we expected to
secure an even larger additional contract award and the fact this came so soon
after the initial award is an indication of the customer's confidence in
Westminster and the hard work of our development teams.  The project is
expected to be largely, if not completely, delivered in the current financial
year.

 

"These are important new technology contract awards. Plus, we have large-scale
managed services projects such as Gabon which is now live, and others coming
on stream hopefully later this year, such as DRC, which has been helped by the
recent peace talks and other developments.  These together with our current
run rate business, provides an encouraging start to the new financial year."
