Gattaca plc (GATC) ShareSoc Growth Company Seminar 25th March - Matthew Wragg, CEO

Gattaca plc is a UK-based specialist in STEM recruitment and workforce solutions. With more than 40 years’ history, the business has evolved from a core engineering recruitment outfit into a diversified provider of technical, engineering, and project delivery talent services. Business Model & Segments Gattaca operates across multiple complementary lines: permanent and contract recruitment, total workforce outsourcing, and outcome-based project delivery. Its brands include Matchtech (engineering & technical recruitment), Infosec People (cybersecurity talent), and Gattaca Projects (statement-of-work/project solutions). Through these, Gattaca serves sectors such as aerospace, automotive, defence, energy, infrastructure, technology, and utilities. Geographically, its revenue remains heavily UK-centric, with modest international operations in Europe and North America. Financial & Operating Profile In its latest reported year ending 31 July 2025, Gattaca delivered Net Fee Income of £38.8m on turnover of £398.9 million, generating underlying profit before tax of £3.3m 13% up on prior year, with net assets of £29.4 million and cash reserves of £15.7 million. For the year to 31 July 2025, Gattaca paid a dividend of 3.0 pence per share split between an interim of 1p and a final of 2p. Strengths, Challenges & Outlook Gattaca’s niche focus on STEM talent gives it structural advantage, especially in an economy where highly skilled technical resources are in strong demand. The ability to wrap recruitment with outcome-based solutions (through Gattaca Projects) adds differentiation.
