Trading Update

Rickmansworth - 8 December 2025 - Big Technologies plc (AIM: BIG), a leading provider of electronic monitoring solutions provides the following update to 8^th December 2025.

·       New Business Wins in Lithuania, Latvia, and Pierce County (Washington state), subject to final contract. New contract signed in Prince Edward Island, Canada. All of the contracts and awards are expected to generate ARR to the group over the course of 2026 as they come online and reduce customer concentration. The largest award, Lithuania, will deliver an initial ARR of £0.6m expected to materialise in 2026, with the opportunity to grow to a total contract value of up to c. €6m over a three- year term.

·       Partnership agreed with US based Recovery Monitoring Solutions ('RMS'). Buddi has signed a strategic partnership with RMS to provide state-of-the-art alcohol monitoring and GPS products to their clients. RMS has a 32-year history of delivering innovative solutions to their customers, and we are pleased to be working with them to increase their product portfolio, and further expand Buddi's reach in the USA.

·       Product Certification: The Group has recently developed a new product to measure breath alcohol, called 'AlcoBreath' which has recently received FCC ("Federal Communications Commission") approval in the USA.  The unit combines breath alcohol detection, real time GPS tracking, and facial recognition in a robust, compact handheld device. The Group believes there is a significant market, particularly in the USA, for compliance-based alcohol monitoring.

The Group expects to release its full year trading update at the end of January 2026 and new contract wins underpin confidence in the Group's trading in line with market expectations.

Ian Johnson, Big Technologies CEO, said:

"We are continuing to progress our transformation programme, strengthening our organisation and delivering profitable growth. We are delighted with the recent awards and validation of the competitiveness of the Buddi proposition to customers globally.

The Group remains well-positioned with the financial flexibility underpinned by a strong balance sheet and operational cashflow to continue to invest in product and market development. The electronic monitoring market continues to experience significant tailwinds. The Company has a clear growth strategy and market leading products, which places the Group in a strong position to compete for new business globally.  

The Group has seen rapid progress in the second half of 2025, underpinned by investments made to strengthen the Group organisationally and operationally. The performance across the Group, driven by management actions and strategic initiatives has built confidence in meeting our full year guidance for revenue and adjusted EBITDA¹."

¹The company has compiled forecasts from five analysts with current market forecasts for 2025 revenue to be in the range of £48.5m to £49.5m, with a consensus of £49.1m, and for adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of £23.7m to £24.5m, with a consensus of £24.1m.
