Carclo plc

("Carclo" or the "Group")

Contract Cancellation

In December 2020 the Group announced the receipt of a ten-year Framework Agreement from a

major global OEM for the supply of a range of components for use in their laboratory-based PCR diagnostic systems.  At full production rates these contracts were expected to deliver incremental sales of between £10m and £15m annually for the life of the contract with the Board's most recent expectation being that production volumes would start building from the last quarter of the current financial year.  Whilst the tooling contracts have been substantially delivered, the customer has now informed the Group that they no longer intend to proceed into the production phase of the project.

The Group is in discussion with the customer regarding an appropriate commercial settlement in relation to this cancellation.  The Board is evaluating the financial impact and taking mitigating actions.
