Chairman's Statement

I am pleased to present the results of Acuity RM Group plc ("Company" or "Group") for the year ended 31 December 2024.  Acuity RM's STREAMâ is a leading Cyber GRC SaaS platform that provides CISOs (Chief Information Security Officer) with instant, actionable intelligence in business-risk terms, enterprise-wide.

2024 was a year of consolidation for the Group, having acquired total ownership of Acuity Risk Management Limited ("Acuity RM") in 2023. 

There were four notable developments:

·      Sales - Revenues increased because of the organic growth of business, in particular there was significant strengthening of the relationships with our largest customers.

·      Acquisition - in November 2024 a vendor management GRC product Rizikon was acquired, bringing with it new customers and potential new partners.

·      Development - a new version of Acuity RM's software platform, STREAMâ, was started, incorporating a range of new features sought by customers such as AI, improving the user experience. In addition, it will give major benefits to Acuity RM, such as easier and faster customer implementations, and lower costs.  The new product is now ready for new customers, this includes a new vendor management hub which is the replacement for Rizikon, with additional features for third party vendor management.

·      Changes to the management team - with the appointment of David Rajakovich as Chief Executive and Kate Buchan as Finance Director.   

There is much to do but the market opportunity for management of cybersecurity risk and GRC is large, and growing strongly because of an increased prevalence of attacks and a greater awareness that the risks, not only financial but other losses for example of assets and reputation, can be devastating for an enterprise or organisation. 

·      74% of large businesses, 70% of smaller businesses and 66% of larger charities suffered cyber-attacks (source UK Government, "Official Statistics, Cyber security breaches survey 2024")

·      Cybersecurity failure is expensive, averaging $5m per breach and may run into $1bn+ of business costs, and it takes an average of 200 days to discover a cybersecurity breach (Sources "Cost of data Breach Report 2024", IBM and "Equifax Data Breach Case Study", BreachSense). The business costs identified in these reports relate to business interruption, post breach customer support, remediation and regulatory fines.

A major reason that STREAMâ is attractive to users is that it continuously monitors and measures to manage risks and ensure compliance and provides reports and alarms in real time. See the Acuity RM website  https://www.acuityrm.com

There is more detail about Acuity RM and its future plans in the Chief Executive's report which follows this statement.  Additional information on the Group is available on the Company's website https://www.acuityrmgroup.com 

Board and employment

I welcome David Rajakovich and Kate Buchan who both joined the Board in 2024. Kate joined as Finance Director in June 2024 and David, having been appointed a non-executive director in November 2024, became Chief Executive in December, replacing Kerry Chambers. I would like to thank Kerry for her contribution and wish her well for the future.

David's background is as Chief Executive of high growth software businesses.  At his last company, Skill Dynamics Ltd and its predecessor businesses, revenues grew 18 fold over a nine year period.  In the period since his appointment David has made significant changes to the operations at Acuity RM with the objective of accelerating growth in 2025, building the business and improving the financial performance.

I want to thank our employees, customers, partners, and shareholders for their contribution, continued support and confidence in our vision. Together, we are building a company that is helping organisations around the world become more secure and resilient in the face of evolving cyber threats.

Outlook

Acuity RM operates in a large, high growth global market with key customers in the UK, Europe, USA and other territories.  The opportunity for 2025 is to accelerate the pace of growth by increasing the customer base.  This will be achieved both with the internal business development team and through closer relationships with partners.  We anticipate the developments in hand will increase the number and value of contracts.  This should be key to attaining the financial objectives.

I look forward to reporting further progress over the coming months.

Chairman

Chief Executive's Statement

Looking Forward with Confidence

As we close another fiscal year, I am pleased to present our annual report highlighting our strategic initiatives, achievements, and vision for the future. I became Chief Executive midway through December 2024, and am enthusiastic about the progress we have already made, and more importantly, delivering results in 2025. When I was first approached about the opportunity to lead this organisation, I was immediately drawn to its innovative approach to solving critical security challenges and the tremendous potential for growth in today's increasingly complex digital landscape.

In particular, I was attracted to Acuity RM because it has a strong background in cybersecurity, with its award-winning software platform, STREAMâ, having been developed over 20 years.  STREAMâ can provide risk management in Cyber GRC, Cyber Risk Quantification, Continuous Controls Monitoring, Cybersecurity Continuous Compliance Automation.  The STREAMâ solution delivers all these capabilities on a single integrated software platform.  It is highly configurable and can meet complex organisational needs without additional development. STREAMâ  provides users with a custom set up exactly matching their profile and systems. 

2024 Financial Results

Revenue for the 12 months to December 2024 was £2.1m, the prior period was £1.4m, however this was for an 8 month period from date of acquisition. Comparing on a like for like basis, revenue in 2024 has moderately increased, mainly due to upselling to current customers, evident through a net revenue retention (NRR*) percentage of 105% (based on recurring revenue only).

Administrative costs in Acuity RM were slightly lower in the 12 months to December 2024 when compared on a like for like basis with the prior period. This is the result of a focus on cost control via a continuous assessment of the cost base throughout 2024, ensuring that resources are used efficiently and effectively.

The adjusted loss for the year was £1.2m (2023: £1.0m) before exceptional costs of £141k which predominantly relate to organisational changes and the P&L charge for share based payments of £27k. The reported loss for the year was £1.3m (2023: £1.3m).

Forward contracted revenue, (deferred income per the balance sheet and forward contracted revenue*) has continued to grow increasing 17% year-on-year to £3.4m as at the year end (2023: £2.9m). This balance represents revenue that will be released to the profit and loss statement over future periods. Contract renewals for the year ran at 78%.

*NRR and forward contracted revenue are not IFRS measures.

Cash and debtors at the year end were £1.3m (2023: £1.4m) of which cash was £0.6m (2023: £0.1m). Loans and borrowings at the year end were £0.2m (2023: £0.3m).

Strategic Focus on Cyber Security Risk Management

In an era where cyber threats continue to evolve at an unprecedented pace, we have made the strategic decision to focus exclusively on cyber security risk management rather than attempting to address enterprise risk management as a whole. This focused approach allows us to deliver specialised solutions that address the challenges our clients face in identifying, assessing, and mitigating cyber risks. By maintaining this focus, we can offer unparalleled expertise and value in an area that continues to be mission-critical for organisations across all sectors.

Product Innovation: The Next Generation

I am excited to announce that a completely rebuilt version of our flagship product is now ready for new customers. This next-generation platform represents a significant investment in our product capabilities and user experience. Key improvements include:

·      A revamped user interface with intuitive workflows based on extensive user research

·      Simplified integration capabilities with popular security and business tools such as AI

·      Enhanced dashboards and reporting features for greater visibility and insights

These improvements directly support our strategic shift toward Product Led Growth (PLG) by making onboarding seamless and intuitive. The new platform has been designed to dramatically reduce time-to-value for new customers, allowing them to experience the benefits of our solution faster and with minimal friction.

Revitalised Go-To-Market Strategy

We have fundamentally transformed our go-to-market approach to better align with market opportunities and customer needs:

·      Direct sales efforts have been repositioned to focus primarily on mid-market clients where we see the highest conversion rates and fastest adoption

·      The partner network has been rationalised and refocused on a limited number of strategic partnerships to target blue-chip enterprise clients, leveraging our partners' established relationships and implementation capabilities

·      Sales processes have been optimised to reduce cycle times and improve conversion at every stage of the funnel

This revised approach is supported by a data-driven framework that enables us to continuously measure effectiveness, identify bottlenecks, and refine our tactics. Early results are promising, which bodes well for improved performance, especially in the latter half of 2025.

Organisational Transformation

To support our new direction, we have made several key changes to our organisational structure and leadership team. These changes were necessary to better align our resources with our strategic priorities, improve operational efficiency, and reduce costs. While organisational change is never easy, these adjustments have created a more agile, focused team that is better positioned to execute on our vision and deliver value to our customers and shareholders.

Strategic Acquisition: Rizikon

I am pleased to report that we have successfully completed the acquisition of the Rizikon product, a complementary software GRC tool in the cyber risk assessment space. Rizikon's features are being incorporated into STREAMâ. This strategic acquisition provides an immediate opportunity to introduce STREAMâ to Rizikon's established client base, creating significant cross-selling and upselling potential. In addition, it has provided the opportunity to enter into direct commercial negotiations with two significant organisations as partners to distribute Acuity RM's STREAMâ product. These potential new partners of Acuity RM, one of which is a major defence contractor, have the capability to enable Acuity RM to grow new customer numbers and revenues materially, over and above the Rizikon assets' anticipated contribution to Acuity RM's overall future performance.

Looking Ahead

As we move forward, I am confident that our strategic focus, product investments, and organisational improvements have positioned us for sustained growth and market leadership. The demand for effective cyber security risk management solutions continues to grow, and our targeted approach puts us in an excellent position to capture significant market share in a largely greenfield market.

Notes to the Financial Statements

for the year ended 31 December 2024

1.   Revenue and segmental analysis

The following is an analysis of the Group's revenue for the year from continuing operations:

2.   Administrative expenses

3.   Staff Costs

4.   Finance Costs

5.   Gain/Loss on remeasurement of financial assets and liabilities

6.   Exceptional costs

The exceptional costs predominantly relate to the cost of terminating Kerry Chambers contract. These costs include legal fees, a termination payment and notice period.

7.   Auditor's remuneration

There is a tax credit for the current year related to R&D reclaims. The tax assessed for the year is explained as follows:

The Group has unrecognised deferred tax assets of £2,017,000 (2023: £1,757,000) as a result of losses in the current year and prior periods carried forward of £10,030,000 (2023: £8,990,000).

¹ The R&D reclaim covers the periods from 1 April 2022 to 31 March 23 and 1 April 2023 to 31 December 2023 where the cash was received in 2024.

9.   Earnings per ordinary share

The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit or loss for the year by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is taken as equal to basic earnings per share, as the Group's average share price during the period is lower than the exercise price of the share options and warrants and therefore the effect of including the share options and warrants is anti-dilutive.

10.  Tangible and intangible assets - Group

Note: In 2024 we commenced the redevelopment of STREAMâ. As at 31 December 2024, the capital commitment for the redevelopment was £147,517.

11.  Goodwill

The goodwill arises on the acquisition of Acuity RM in April 2023. The goodwill has been tested for impairment using a discounted cashflow forecast model. The model is for 5 years and uses a number of scenarios for growth rates on new sales and upsell. The growth rate used in costs varies depending on the type of cost, with the biggest growth being employment costs as these are the most significant. The pre-tax weighted average cost of capital used in the model was 7.92% and range of values were used to test the model. No impairment was deemed necessary at the reporting date.

12.  Investments held at Fair Value through Profit and Loss

¹ Acuity RM Group plc previously held a 25% stake in Acuity RM. On 25 April 2023 it acquired 100% of the ordinary share capital of Acuity RM. The investment in Acuity RM has been transferred to an investment in subsidiary. See note 13.

The Company acquired its legacy investment in KCR Residential REIT plc at a price of £0.70 per share in 2018. KCR is an AIM quoted real estate investment trust focused on the residential property market. The investment was classed as fair value through profit and loss in accordance with IFRS 9. The share price at 31 December 2024 was £0.085 per share so the investment was valued downwards at the year end by £36,536 in accordance with IFRS 13. The closing value at 31 December 2024 was £207,035. (31 December 2023: £243,571).

Fair value hierarchy

As KCR Residential REIT plc is an AIM quoted company, it is measured under level 1 of the fair value hierarchy in accordance with IFRS 13:

-     Level 1: quoted prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities. The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's-length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group is the closing price on the last day of the financial year of the Group. These instruments are included in level 1 and comprise FTSE and AIM-quoted investments classified as held at fair value through profit or loss.

All assets held at fair value through profit or loss were designated as such upon initial recognition.

13.  Investment in subsidiary

At 31 December 2024 the Company held 100% of the ordinary share capital of the following company:

¹ Prior to the acquisition of Acuity RM, the Company held a £625,000 investment in Acuity RM.

² On the 25 April 2023 the Company completed the successful acquisition of Acuity RM and now holds 100% of the share capital.

14.  Trade and Other Receivables

15.  Inter-Group Receivable

1    The inter-group loan is repayable on demand and interest free.

16.  Trade and other payables

17.  Other current liabilities

¹ Acuity RM recognises revenue from annual software subscription and support licences over the term of the contract on a straight line basis. Deferred income is the difference between the cash paid upfront by the customer and the revenue recognised to date.

² The bank loan is a Coronavirus Business Interruption loan, (CBIL), that was taken out in July 2021. The loan is repayable over 6 years and is secured by a debenture. Under the terms of the CBILS no interest was payable for the first 12 months, therefore the CBIL has been fair valued through profit and loss. The fair value adjustment is disclosed in note 5.

³ The other loan was a short term loan taken out in 2024 and fully repaid in January 2025.

18.  Other non-current liabilities

¹ As per note 17

² As per note 17

19.  Share capital

¹ On 24 April 2023 a resolution was approved by shareholders in a general meeting whereby the ordinary shares were subject to a consolidation and subdivision effectively reducing the number of shares and share options by a factor of 10. At the same time the number of deferred shares increased by 377,839,648.

20.  Deferred shares

On 24 April 2023 at the General Meeting of the Ordinary Shareholders a resolution to consolidate and subdivide the ordinary shares was approved. The effect of this was to reduce the number of ordinary shares in issue on the basis of 1 for 10 but the underlying assets remain at the same value so assets per share increased tenfold; and to create additional deferred shares which are effectively valueless.

The other rights of the deferred shares are:

•           no right to any dividend;

•           the right to receive notice of any general meeting and to attend such meeting but no right to vote thereat.

21.  Share options and warrants

The group operates two share option schemes. A new EMI approved share option scheme set up in 2024 and an unapproved scheme set up prior to 2024. The details of the share options issued and outstanding for each scheme is set out in the notes below.

EMI Approved Share Option Scheme

During 2024 a new EMI approved share option scheme was set up and awards made to senior employees. On 26 June 2024 7,131,088 were issued exercisable at 3.75p of which 2,251,922 were issued to Kerry Chambers and lapsed when she left the company.  Save for 1,501,282 options granted to Angus Forrest, the options are exercisable in whole or in part at any time for five years from date of grant conditional on the market price (under the rules of the EMI Scheme) of the Company's shares reaching double the exercise price for a period of at least five consecutive trading days. 1,501,282 of the options granted to Angus Forrest have been awarded as a reward for initiating, delivering and successfully integrating the acquisition of Acuity Risk Management Limited. These bonus options are not subject to any performance criteria and are exercisable between the first and tenth anniversaries of the date of grant.

The Group has used a Monte Carlo model to calculate the fair value of the share options due to the performance criteria conditions for vesting. The assumptions applied to Monte Carlo model for share options issued and the resultant fair value per option are detailed in the table below for options. Volatility was calculated using historical share price information for the 12 months prior to the date of grant. The charge calculated up to 31 December 2024 is £27,298 (2023: nil).

¹ The share price must reach double the exercise price (7.5p) for at least five consecutive trading days. This impacts 3,377,884 of the share options issued.

² The options can be exercised from the vesting date until the expiry date. This impacts 1,501,282 of the share options issued.

Unapproved Share options scheme

Awards under the scheme were made periodically to employees. The share options in this scheme vest three years after the date of grant and have an exercise period of seven years. The options may only be exercised by option holders while they are still employees of the Group. If death in service occurs the options can be exercised (to the extent that they have vested) by the option holder's personal representatives within 12 months from the date of death. If an option holder ceases to be employed and the Directors deem the option holder to be a 'Good Leaver' the options can be exercised (to the extent that they have vested) within six months from the date of cessation of employment.

A reconciliation of share option movements over the year ended 31 December 2024 is shown below:

At 31 December 2024 outstanding options granted over ordinary shares were as follows;

The weighted average exercise price for the Group's options under the unapproved are as follows:

Options outstanding at 31 December 2024:        6.06p

Options exercisable at 31 December 2024:         900,000

The weighted average remaining contractual life of the share options under the unapproved scheme outstanding at the end of the year is 5 years (2023: 6 years).

The Group has used the Black-Scholes formula to calculate the fair value of outstanding share options. The assumptions applied to the Black-Scholes formula for share options issued and the fair value per option are detailed in the table below for options issued. The charge calculated up to 31 December 2024 is £nil (2023: nil). Volatility was calculated using historical share price information for the six months prior to the date of grant.

Warrants

On 25 April 2023, in connection with the acquisition of Acuity RM, the Company issued certain advisers with warrants to subscribe for the number of shares shown below at a price of 4.5 pence per share.  The first date of exercise to be 25 April 2024 and the warrants expire on 24 April 2026.

Warrants exercisable at 31 December 2024: 2,149,999

The Group has used the Black-Scholes formula to calculate the fair value of outstanding share options. The assumptions applied to the Black-Scholes formula for share warrants issued and the fair value per warrant are detailed in the table below for warrants issued. The charge calculated up to 31 December 2024 is nil (2023: £61,000).

22.  Pensions

The Group operates a defined contribution pension scheme for all qualifying employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Group in an independently administered fund. Employer contributions for the year were £69,429, of which £10,210was payable at 31 December 2024

Contributions payable to the pension scheme are charged to the income statement in the year to which they relate. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid.

23.  Transactions with related parties

Group and Company

The key management personnel of the Company are considered to be the Directors.

Acuity Risk Management Limited, a 100% owned subsidiary, was charged £60,000 for management fees for the period ended 31 December 2024 (12 months ended December 2023: £60,000), of which £6,000 was payable at 31 December 2024.

24.  Financial instruments and risk profile                    

The Group's and Company's financial instruments comprises investment, cash balances, debtors and creditors that arise directly from its operations and derivative instruments. The Group and Company are exposed to risk through the use of financial instruments and specifically to liquidity and market price risk and foreign exchange rate risks, which result from the Group's operating activities.

The Board's policy for managing these risks is summarised below.

Liquidity and market price risks

The Group currently has an investment in KCR Residential REIT plc. Although this is a traded investment it has limited liquidity. The Group and Company are exposed to market price risk as shown by movements in the value of its equity investment. Any such risk is regularly monitored by the Directors.

Foreign exchange rate risks

Acuity RM trades overseas and invoices in the local currency in territories with currencies traded in major markets, but in less developed areas it invoices in £ Sterling or other major currency as agreed with the customer.

Capital risk management

The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group's ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders, benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. The Group monitors capital on the basis of the carrying amount of equity, less cash and cash equivalents as presented on the face of the Statement of financial position. The movement in the capital to overall financing ratio is shown below:

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

Credit risk

The Group's exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at the balance sheet date.

The Directors consider that all the above financial assets are of reasonable quality. No amounts shown above are considered to be past their due date.

Summary of financial assets and liabilities by category

The carrying amount of financial assets and liabilities as recognised at the balance sheet date of the reporting periods under review may also be categorised as below:

The financial instruments held at fair value through profit or loss have been valued in accordance with IFRS 13. In the current year, these are determined by reference to quoted prices where there is an active market for identical assets or liabilities. Otherwise, the fair value is determined by using valuation techniques such as earnings multiples. There is no material difference between the carrying value and fair value of the Group's aggregate financial assets and liabilities.

Interest rate risk profile of financial liabilities
