Interim Results and Investor Presentation via Investor Meet Company

REACT Group plc (AIM: REAT), the leading specialist support services provider to the FM industry, announces its unaudited interim results for the six‑month period ended 31 March 2026.

Financial Highlights

·      Revenue increased 9% to £13.2m (H1 2025: £12.1m) - supported by strong performance in 24hr Aquaflow Services and a more disciplined, value‑led sales approach focused on profitable work.

·      Recurring/repeat revenue remained above 85%, providing strong visibility - reflecting long‑standing customer relationships and a service model built around reliability and responsiveness.

·      Gross profit up 10% to £4.3m (H1 2025: £3.9m) - driven by improved operational efficiency and a sharper focus on higher‑value customer work.

·      Gross margin improved to 32.4% (H1 2025: 32.0%) - benefiting from disciplined pricing, better job allocation, and a sales culture centred on gross profit rather than top‑line volume.

·      Adjusted EBITDA increased 7% to £1.5m (H1 2025: £1.4m) - reflecting revenue growth and continued cost control while investing in customer‑facing capability.

·      Free cash flow of £824k, reflecting continued focus on cash discipline (H1 2025: £204k) - supported by tighter working capital management and improved collections.

·      Cash of £1.1m at period end (H1 2025: £2.8m) - after investment in technology, sales capability, and deferred consideration payments.

·      Net debt of £2.5m (H1 2025: £1.9m) - remaining well within comfortable levels following planned investment and acquisition‑related outflows.

·      Basic loss per share (0.31p) (H1 2025: 1.18p) - reflecting lower finance costs and improved operating performance.

·      Adjusted EBITDA EPS 6.34p (H1 2025: 6.07p) - demonstrating continued underlying earnings strength.

Operational & Strategic Highlights

The Group delivered a resilient first‑half performance, building on the operational discipline and strengthened foundations established during FY25, alongside a clearer focus on customer value and a more commercially confident culture.

·      Strong contribution from 24hr Aquaflow Services, continuing the momentum seen following its acquisition and integration, supported by strong customer responsiveness and a focus on delivering value rather than volume.

·      Project Sparkle is now fully live at LaddersFree, providing real‑time operational visibility and a scalable digital platform. With the core foundations now in place, the Group has responded to strong customer engagement by making a modest, targeted investment in a customer portal to enhance transparency, communication, and perceived value.

·      Investment ahead of plan in sales capability, with two experienced hires joining the LaddersFree sales team, strengthening the division's ability to drive growth through a gross‑profit‑led sales approach that prioritises customer outcomes and long‑term relationships.

·      Improved business mix, with higher‑margin services supporting profitability despite softer demand in certain areas, reflecting a more selective, value‑based approach to the work the Group pursues.

·      Robust cash conversion, enabling continued investment in capability and technology, underpinned by tighter operational controls and improved billing processes.

·      Cross‑sell and upsell opportunities expanding, consistent with the strategic direction set out at the full‑year results, supported by a more joined‑up commercial mindset and clearer articulation of customer value.

·      Leadership strengthened, supporting scalable growth and improved execution across the Group, embedding a culture of accountability, customer focus, and commercially disciplined decision‑making.

Market Environment

The market environment has remained broadly consistent with the conditions outlined at the FY25 results.  Demand for essential reactive and planned services continues to be resilient, and the Group's diversified service offering provides a stable foundation.  While some customers are experiencing increased pressure from higher labour costs, statutory changes and wider economic factors, these pressures have been contained and managed through the collaborative approach established last year.

Overall, the trading backdrop remains steady. The Group continues to navigate customer cost pressures with agility, maintaining service continuity and protecting long‑term relationships, while remaining disciplined in managing discretionary project work. This balanced approach ensures the Group is neither overly exposed to short‑term fluctuations nor reliant on overly optimistic assumptions about the pace of market improvement.

Current Trading & Outlook

The Group enters the second half of the year with a stable operational footing and a resilient base of recurring and repeat revenues. Demand for essential reactive and planned services remains consistent, and the pipeline continues to benefit from cross‑sell and upsell opportunities across divisions. While decision cycles for higher‑value contracts remain extended and some customers continue to manage increased cost pressures, these dynamics are familiar and broadly in line with those experienced over the past year.

Against this backdrop, the Board maintains a measured and disciplined approach to the remainder of FY26. Early activity in the second half has been encouraging, and the Group continues to execute well against its operational priorities.  This includes a continued focus on delivering clear customer value and maintaining a sales culture centred on gross profit rather than top‑line volume, ensuring that growth remains both sustainable and aligned with customer needs. Although the timing of conversion for certain larger opportunities remains difficult to predict, the overall direction of travel remains positive.

The strengthened operational foundations, enhanced digital capability and diversified service offering provide a solid platform for long‑term value creation.  As these capabilities embed further, the Group is increasingly well positioned to deepen customer relationships and support more proactive, insight‑led engagement. While an improving market backdrop would offer further support, the Group is already successfully identifying and securing growth opportunities through its unique capabilities and go‑to‑market strengths, ensuring progress is driven by execution rather than external conditions.

CEO Comment

"The Group delivered a resilient first-half performance, leveraging the operational discipline and foundations established in FY25. Growth in revenue, gross profit, and Adjusted EBITDA was driven by high levels of recurring revenue and the strong performance of 24hr Aquaflow Services.

Project Sparkle is now fully live at LaddersFree, providing real time operational visibility and a scalable digital platform.  With this foundation in place, we have responded to strong customer engagement by making a modest, targeted investment in a customer portal, and we have strengthened our sales capability with two experienced hires to support the next phase of growth.

The full implementation of Project Sparkle has successfully transitioned LaddersFree to a high-performance digital environment, providing comprehensive, real-time operational visibility and a scalable foundation for future expansion.

In response to sustained and positive customer engagement, the Group has executed several targeted enhancements to capitalize on this momentum. We have committed a strategic investment toward the development of a customer portal to streamline client interactions and improve service delivery. Simultaneously, we have bolstered our commercial capability through the appointment of two senior sales professionals specifically tasked with accelerating pipeline conversion. By leveraging the robust Project Sparkle infrastructure, the Group is now positioned to manage increased volume and support our next phase of organic growth while maintaining rigorous operational standards.

The trading environment has remained broadly consistent with the conditions we described at the full year results.  While some customers continue to manage increased cost pressures, demand for essential reactive and planned services remains steady, and we continue to see encouraging signs of momentum across our core markets.

As we move into the second half, we remain focused on disciplined execution.  Our strengthened operational foundations, enhanced digital capability and diversified service offering position us well.  Importantly, we are already identifying and securing growth opportunities through our unique capabilities and go to market strengths, ensuring that progress is driven by our own actions rather than external conditions."

About Us:

REACT Group Plc, the UK's leading support services provider to the facilities management (FM) sector, operates through four distinct divisions:

·       LaddersFree, one of the UK's largest commercial window cleaning businesses, delivering nationwide services.

·       Fidelis Contract Services ("Fidelis"), a contract cleaning and soft facilities maintenance provider focused on long-term customer partnerships.

·       REACT, specialising in emergency and specialist cleaning solutions offering both long-term framework agreements and rapid response services.

·       24hr Aquaflow Services, a recently acquired commercial drainage and plumbing business serving customers across the South East of England

This diversified structure enables REACT Group to offer a comprehensive suite of essential and time-sensitive services, supporting both recurring maintenance and urgent response needs across the UK.

Strategic Overview

The Group continues to strengthen its position as a specialist provider of essential, often technically demanding and frequently time‑critical services to the UK commercial facilities management sector.  Our focus remains on delivering non‑discretionary services that protect customers' operations, safeguard their environments and support the presentation of their brands.  This strategic clarity, combined with a disciplined, customer‑value‑led commercial approach, has underpinned the Group's resilient performance in the first half.

Building on the progress made during FY25, the Group has further enhanced its operational foundations, digital capability and leadership strength.  The integration of 24hr Aquaflow Services continues to deliver tangible benefits, broadening our technical expertise across drainage, plumbing, pump maintenance and wastewater management.  Alongside this, the transition of LaddersFree to a fully digital workflow and the early development of a customer portal represent meaningful steps forward in transparency, efficiency and customer experience.

These strategic investments, combined with a more commercially confident culture centred on gross‑profit‑led growth, provide a scalable platform for long‑term value creation.  The Group remains focused on service lines where quality, compliance and rapid response are critical, ensuring we continue to deliver high‑value outcomes for customers while strengthening our competitive position.

Sales Performance & Market Dynamics

The Group delivered a solid commercial performance in the first half, supported by strong recurring and repeat revenues and a disciplined focus on customer value.  Demand for essential reactive and planned services has remained consistent, and the pipeline continues to benefit from cross‑sell and upsell opportunities across divisions.  This reflects both the breadth of our service offering and the increasing collaboration between teams.

Market conditions remain broadly similar to those experienced throughout FY25.  Decision cycles for higher‑value contracts continue to be extended, and some customers remain cautious in committing discretionary spend.  However, these dynamics are well understood and have been effectively managed through a more selective, gross‑profit‑focused sales approach.  This shift ensures that growth is driven by value‑accretive work rather than top‑line volume, strengthening both margin and customer outcomes.

Early activity in the second half has been encouraging, with improved engagement across several key customer groups and a growing number of opportunities emerging from the enhanced capability within both 24hr Aquaflow Services and LaddersFree.  The Group's ability to respond quickly, deliver consistently and provide nationwide coverage continues to resonate strongly with customers seeking reliability and technical expertise.

Operational & Strategic Execution

Operational execution remained a core strength during the first half, reflecting the continued investment in systems, processes and leadership made over the past 18-months.  The Group's operational discipline is evident in improved gross margin, strong cash conversion and a more balanced business mix, all of which support scalable, sustainable growth.

Project Sparkle is now fully live at LaddersFree, providing real‑time operational visibility and a robust digital platform that enhances efficiency, auditability and customer experience.  Building on this foundation, the Group has made a modest, targeted investment in a customer portal in response to strong customer engagement, further strengthening transparency and interaction.

The integration of 24hr Aquaflow Services continues to progress well, with the division delivering strong performance and benefiting from increased collaboration across the Group.  The enhanced technical capability within drainage, plumbing and pump maintenance is enabling the Group to support more complex, high‑value customer requirements.

Leadership capability has also been strengthened, supporting improved planning, accountability and execution across the business.  This, combined with a more commercially aligned culture, ensures the Group remains focused on delivering high‑quality outcomes for customers while driving operational efficiency and long‑term value creation.

Cash flow, balance sheet & capital allocation

Cash generated from continuing operations totalled £0.7m, reflecting continued operational discipline and adjusting for non-cash items including depreciation and amortisation. Free cash flow for the period was £824k, supporting the Group's capacity for reinvestment and maintaining balance sheet resilience.

At period-end, net debt stood at £2.5m, comprising bank debt of £3.9m and finance leases of £0.8m, offset by cash and cash equivalents of £1.1m, providing adequate liquidity and headroom for the Group's ongoing requirements.

People & talent strategy

Investing in our people, technology, and operational foundations remains central to our long-term growth strategy. The Group continues to strengthen financial and management reporting, develop internal talent through targeted training programmes, and expand its sales and marketing capabilities to support future growth. Leadership enhancements made during FY25 continue to underpin improved execution and position the Group for scalable, sustainable growth.

The Board extends its sincere appreciation to all employees for their dedication, professionalism, and continued contribution to REACT's success.

Market Environment

The market environment has remained broadly consistent with the conditions outlined at the FY25 results.  Demand for essential reactive and planned services continues to be resilient, and the Group's diversified service offering provides a stable foundation.  While some customers are experiencing increased pressure from higher labour costs, statutory changes and wider economic factors, these pressures have been contained and managed through the collaborative approach established last year.

Overall, the trading backdrop remains steady. The Group continues to navigate customer cost pressures with agility, maintaining service continuity and protecting long‑term relationships, while remaining disciplined in managing discretionary project work. This balanced approach ensures the Group is neither overly exposed to short‑term fluctuations nor reliant on overly optimistic assumptions about the pace of market improvement.

Outlook & Strategic Direction

The Board remains mindful of the broader operating environment, with some customers continuing to manage elevated cost pressures and decision cycles for higher‑value contracts remaining extended.  These conditions are familiar and broadly consistent with those experienced over the past year.  Despite this, demand for essential reactive and planned services remains stable, reflecting the non‑discretionary nature of much of the Group's work and the strength of long‑standing customer relationships.

The Group enters the second half with a stable operational footing and a resilient base of recurring and repeat revenues.  The pipeline continues to benefit from expanding cross‑sell and upsell opportunities across divisions, supported by a joined‑up commercial approach and a clear focus on customer value.  Early second‑half activity has been encouraging, with improved engagement across several key customer groups.  While the timing of conversion for certain larger opportunities remains difficult to predict, the overall direction of travel is positive.

The full implementation of Project Sparkle at LaddersFree has delivered real‑time operational visibility and a scalable digital platform, providing a strong foundation for the next phase of growth.  In response to sustained customer engagement, the Group has made targeted investments in a customer portal to streamline interactions and enhance transparency.  Commercial capability has also been strengthened through two senior sales appointments, supporting pipeline conversion and reinforcing the Group's focus on a gross‑profit‑led sales culture.

Looking ahead, the Board maintains a measured and disciplined approach to the remainder of FY26.  The strengthened operational foundations, enhanced digital capability and diversified service offering provide a solid platform for long‑term value creation.  While an improving market backdrop would offer further support, the Group is already successfully identifying and securing growth opportunities through its own capabilities and go‑to‑market strengths.  This ensures that progress continues to be driven by execution, customer value and commercial discipline rather than external conditions.
