Trading Update

   -     Record Revenue and Adjusted Profit outturn for FY23 

Oxford Metrics (LSE: OMG), the smart sensing software company, servicing life sciences, entertainment and engineering markets, today provides the following update on trading for the financial year ended 30 September 2023.

The Group expects to report revenues of GBP44.0m and an Adjusted PBT* of GBP6.3m, both ahead of current market expectations* for the financial year. The Group finished the year with a robust cash position of GBP64.8m and no debt.

Following the Group's strongest-ever first half performance, momentum continued into the second half driven by a particularly strong contribution from the Engineering and Life Sciences segments. Vicon continues to see ongoing demand for smart sensing into yet more applications from new and existing customers alike and the new Vicon Valkyrie system launched late last year continues to stimulate demand.

The Group as a whole remains in a strong financial position which enables the business to pursue its organic growth and M&A objectives in the year ahead.

The Group starts a new financial year with a solid order book. More detail will be provided when Oxford Metrics announces its Preliminary Results for the financial year ended 30 September 2023 which is expected on Tuesday, 5 December 2023.

*Oxford Metrics' compiled market consensus as at 24 October 2023 is as follows: FY23 Revenue GBP39.00m / FY Adjusted PBT GBP5.83m.
