H1 Trading Update

D4t4 Solutions Plc (AIM: D4T4, "the Group", the "Company", "D4t4"), the AIM-listed data solutions provider, provides the following trading update for the six months to 30 September 2023.

Results(1) are expected to be in line with management expectations, with revenues of approximately GBP13.0 million (H1 FY23: GBP8.1 million) and adjusted profit before tax(2) of approximately GBP0.2 million (H1 FY23: loss of GBP1.3 million). We have made progress as we continue to convert our improving sales pipeline, while the outcome was also assisted by the revenues related to the delays in contract signings at the previous year end, which were signed during this period.

Annual recurring revenue ("ARR" (3) ) increased during the period to GBP17.4 million (31 March 2023: GBP16.7 million, 30 September 2022: GBP15.8 million). The cash balance at the half year end was robust at GBP14.7 million, and the Group remains debt free.

The Group has continued to invest into Sales and Marketing, including the recently established Customer Success team for the US and International business lines. Building upon the Prickly Cactus acquisition in 2021, Customer Success is solely focused on feature adoption and license ARR growth within our existing user base while also ensuring we maintain a high level of customer satisfaction in the Celebrus platform.

These factors provide us with confidence of another year of progress and a full year performance in line with management expectations.

During the period, the Company announced its intention to effect a change of name to Celebrus Technologies plc, subject to shareholder approval at a general meeting on Wednesday 9(th) November.

The Group will publish its half year results for the six months to 30 September 2023 on 27 November 2023, and will be hosting a capital markets day for analysts and investors at 10am on Wednesday 30 November 2023. This will take place at the offices of Cavendish Capital Markets, at 1 Bartholomew Close, London EC1A 7BL and will be available live via the Investor Meet Company platform. Further details will be announced in due course.

(1) The trading performance reported in this statement is based on unaudited management accounts

(2) Adjusted profit before tax is calculated before amortisation of intangibles, foreign exchange gains/losses, share based payment charges and one-off reorganisation costs.

(3) Annual Recurring Revenue is the amount of revenue currently contracted at a point in time that is expected to recur within the next twelve months.

Bill Bruno, CEO of D4t4 Solutions, said:

"We are pleased with the progress in H1 of this financial year as well as the visibility afforded by our improving ARR which provides us with confidence of another year of progress and a full year performance in line with management expectations. We continue to invest in our people, our customers, and the further innovation of the Celebrus Platform. Underpinned by Celebrus Cloud, we are seeing customers move more quickly into the newer versions of the platform which further enables our ability to drive broader feature adoption and provides increased upsell opportunities."
