Directorate Succession

The Board of Quartix Technolgies plc ("Quartix or the "Company) is pleased to announce that Russell Jones has today joined Quartix as an Independent Non-Executive Director.

Russell has over 25 years of experience in marketing, strategy, business development and operations in publicly listed technology companies including Vodafone and CK Hutchison as well as with smaller private companies. All included operations specialising in SaaS and recurring revenue business models and some were involved in the telematics market. With extensive, recent experience in B2B software marketing and European new market entry, Russell will help to support Quartix in accelerating revenue growth in a sustainable way. He also becomes chair of Quartix's ESG Committee, taking over from Andy Walters. Russell holds a Masters degree in Chemical Engineering from Cambridge University, and an MBA from Warwick Business School.

The Company also announces that Andy Walters has advised that he intends to retire from the Board of Quartix. Andy led the Company for 20 years as CEO from its incorporation in 2001 until the appointment of Richard Lilwall as CEO last year. Since then he has served as a non-executive director, supporting the Board as Quartix has continued its growth and geographic expansion. He will remain on the Board until Q1 2023 in order to conduct an orderly transition and handover with Russell Jones. Andy expects to stand down following the publication of the Company's 2022 results.

Paul Boughton, Non-Executive Chairman commented;

"We are delighted to welcome Russell to the Board. His deep knowledge and experience of growth oriented B2B recurring revenue business will be invaluable as Quartix continues to grow and to scale up in new and existing territories.

It is impossible to overstate Andy's contribution to building Quartix to the market leading business it is today. From being the founder and first employee in 2001 he has been instrumental in growing the Quartix business from its inception, initially in the UK followed by expansion overseas in France and the USA. He also led Quartix's successful IPO in November 2014, the repositioning of the business to focus solely on the SME fleet market and more recently the entry into other European markets

In addition he has orchestrated the transition to the current management team that is equipped to drive future growth for Quartix. Speaking personally I would like to thank him for his huge contribution to developing the Board into the collegiate and professional institution that it is today. The Directors wish him well in his retirement"

Andy Walters, Non-executive Director, commented:

"Since Richard Lilwall took over from me as CEO, just over a year ago, the business has achieved significant growth in both the UK and internationally and it is now the right time for me to step down from the Board. I am really pleased to be able to leave the company under the capable leadership of both Paul and Richard, and to welcome Russell to the Board. Russell brings significant international and marketing experience, which will be of great value to the business. In 2022 we will have achieved a record level of growth in our subscription revenues, and I am confident that we have the right team in place to ensure that we continue to grow these in the future."
