Playstack Platform Contract

TruFin is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Playstack Limited ("Playstack"), a leading UK games publisher, has signed a significant contract with a global technology platform for a new game scheduled for release in H2 2026. The game is being internally developed and will therefore be owned exclusively by Playstack.

The multi-year agreement includes a series of contractual payments, as well as performance-based fees payable following the game's launch.

This contract materially enhances Playstack's first-party IP portfolio and increases the value of its overall portfolio. It also strengthens the visibility of Playstack's revenues for the coming years.

Despite being early in the year, this contract underpins TruFin's confidence that it will deliver yet another year of profitable growth in 2026 for shareholders.

The Company will today separately announce a share buyback programme for up to £6m.

James van den Bergh, Chief Executive Officer commented:

"We are delighted that Playstack has secured another major contract with a global technology platform. The development of first-party IP further strengthens Playstack's strategic value, and we look forward to sharing more details about this exciting release in due course.

Capital allocation is one of the Board's most important responsibilities. Our capital allocation framework reflects a simple philosophy: first ensure our businesses are fully funded to create value; maintain a prudent buffer to cushion the Group from external shocks; and, where there are no superior risk-adjusted return opportunities, return surplus capital to shareholders when our shares trade below intrinsic value.

Accordingly, with a strong balance sheet, increasing profitability across the Group and growing confidence in our outlook, we believe TruFin is well positioned to deliver disciplined capital returns alongside long-term growth, and I am pleased to announce today a share buyback of up to £6 million."
