Checkit plc

("Checkit" or the "the Group")

Trading update

The Group provides a trading update for the nine months to 31 October 2020. A summary of the Group's unaudited Revenue for the three months to October 2020 ("Q3 FY21") and year to date is as follows:

* Normalised sales illustrate sales that would have been included in the Group's financial results had Checkit UK Limited, which was acquired on 14 May 2019, been owned by the Group throughout both periods.

The business performed ahead of the Board's expectations during Q3 FY21.

The period saw an improvement in the Checkit BEMS revenue run rate compared to Q2, as government restrictions eased and field engineers returned to customer sites for installation projects. A first half slowdown in sales of lower margin installation business (due to COVID-19) resulted in a 5% decline in the Checkit BEMs revenue line compared to the prior period.

Checkit Connect Recurring revenues for Q3 FY21 grew 30% compared to the prior period, continuing the trend reported in the Group's interim results. During the period there were further conversions of existing annual calibration and maintenance contracts into subscription-based income.

Cash

Cash at 31 October 2020 was £12.4m (31 January 2020: £14.3m; 31 July 2020: £13.4m).

Outlook

The Board continues to monitor the situation in view of the current uncertainties but remains confident in the medium and long term opportunities for the business.
