AGM Statement

Parity Group plc (AIM: PTY), the data and technology-focussed recruitment and professional services company, announces that at the Company's Annual General Meeting ("AGM") being held at 12 p.m. today, Mark Braund, the Company's Executive Chairman, will make the following statement:

"In its Annual Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2022, the Company highlighted three areas of focus for investment in 2023 to support future growth.

In the public sector, the Company has been successful in opening up new opportunities with existing frameworks and adding new frameworks that further broaden the potential client base.

Engagements with new clients in the private sector have the potential to develop into material sources of income and have already seen the Company working on a number of contract assignments for these clients.

Having set a target to develop our permanent recruitment capability further in 2023, the uncertainty in the economy has made it more challenging to build on the achievements from the prior year. Despite these challenges, the Company continues to believe that permanent recruitment will be a future area of growth for the business.

The Company expects to continue to build momentum, and with the groundwork laid in the first half of 2023, continue to grow our pipeline of opportunities with existing and new customers. The Board remains committed to returning the business to growth."
