Tan Delta Systems plc (AIM: TAND) a market leading, real-time equipment monitoring and data analytics business, announced the admission of its entire share capital to trading on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange ("Admission").

The Company's Admission Document was published on 11 August 2023 and is available to view on its website at: www.tandeltasystems.com

Admission highlights

-- The Company successfully raised gross proceeds of approximately GBP6.0 million in total, at a price of 26 pence per Ordinary Share

-- On Admission, the Company will have a market capitalisation (at the Placing Price) of approximately GBP19.0 million and have 73,223,800 Ordinary Shares in issue

-- Zeus and PrimaryBid raised a further approximately GBP0.6 million (before expenses) for selling shareholders

   --    Zeus Capital Limited acted as Nominated Adviser and broker in relation to the Admission 

Chris Greenwood, CEO of Tan Delta, commented:

"An incredibly proud moment for me, not only in achieving a successful flotation but having the exciting opportunity to now drive the business through its next phase of accelerated growth. None of this would have been possible without the hard work and dedication from all of the Tan Delta team and the continuing support given to us by our early investors.

Innovation continues to be alive and kicking in the UK and I hope that we can be seen as an example to budding entrepreneurs as to what can be achieved. A huge thank you to Zeus for their efforts in securing a great deal for the business and for the new investors, without their relentless efforts we would not have successfully navigated the whole IPO process."

Company and Use of Proceeds

-- Based in Sheffield, UK, Tan Delta has developed market leading, real-time equipment monitoring sensors for a range of international blue-chip clients

-- Tan Delta's sensor solutions provide a number of key benefits to equipment operators, including:

o Maintenance optimisation - sensors eliminate unnecessary time scheduled maintenance, through optimised maintenance scheduling by monitoring actual equipment and oil condition;

o Advance fault detection - sensors recognise early signs of issues before equipment damage occurs to enable pre-emptive maintenance and reduce breakdowns and crucially downtime;

o Event identification - sensors can see the effects of oil changes, top-ups and sweetening (partial oil change) events assisting operators in managing their assets; and

o Environmental (ESG) - reduced carbon footprint due to less oil being used, spare parts and maintenance activities, coupled with increased equipment life and efficiency

-- Proceeds of the Placing will be used for sales and marketing, product development and general working capital purposes

Capitalised terms used in this announcement shall, unless the context provides otherwise, have the same meanings as in the Admission Document.
