Pre-close trading update

Strong close to 2021

Alfa Financial Software Holdings PLC ("Alfa" or the "Company"), a leading developer of mission-critical software for the asset finance industry provides an update on trading in advance of announcing its 2021 full year results on Wednesday 9 March 2022.

Strong trading continues

Alfa has continued to perform strongly in the fourth quarter with good revenue generation across all business streams. Software revenue has been higher than expected with continued strong delivery of development days alongside additional licence income recognition from incremental licence sales.

Our strong delivery record has continued with three go-lives for new Alfa Systems v5 customers in the quarter, along with ten other go-lives, to total twenty-seven for the year as a whole.

Overall we expect our 2021 full year results to be towards the upper end of Company compiled current market expectations, which are revenue of GBP80m - GBP82m and operating profit of GBP19m - GBP22m.

Andrew Denton, Chief Executive Officer of Alfa said:

"I am delighted that we have been able to carry on the strong momentum developed in the first half in terms of both financial performance and delivery through to the end of the year. This performance alongside the strategic progress we have made, the confidence we have in the quality of our people and the strength of the intellectual property in our software give us great confidence in Alfa's prospects for 2022".
