The cloud provider for financial markets sees a 91% surge in profit driven by infrastructure demand.
The company launched an AI analytics product after year-end and said its sales pipeline stands at record levels across all offerings.
Beeks
Financial Cloud Group (LSE: BKS)
reported revenue climbed 26% to £35.9 million for the year ended June 30,
powered by a tripling of sales from its Proximity and Exchange Cloud products
as major stock exchanges adopted the company's infrastructure services.
The
London-listed provider of cloud computing for capital markets said statutory
profit before tax nearly doubled to £2.79 million from
£1.46 million a year earlier. Underlying profit before tax, which excludes
share-based payments and other non-cash items, jumped 41% to £5.5 million.
Gordon McArthur, CEO of Beeks Financial Cloud
“Yet
again we have achieved double-digit growth in revenue and profitability,
strengthened our recurring revenue profile and secured significant contracts
with some of the world's largest financial institutions,” CEO Gordon
McArthur said in the statement.
The company
also extended an existing agreement with the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
However, Beeks disclosed one unnamed major exchange contract won in the
previous fiscal year was terminated during the period, though management said
the financial impact would be “insignificant” because the service
hadn't fully launched to the exchange's customers.
Beeks now
counts six of the world's 30 largest exchanges among its multi-year contract
holders. The company said it has four additional top-30 exchanges in final
contracting stages.
The company
introduced a revenue-sharing structure for certain Exchange Cloud deals during
the year, a change management said shortens sales cycles and enhances long-term
profitability. Three exchanges now operate under this model, with one already
generating revenue profitably.
Under the
new approach, Beeks shares in usage-based fees rather than charging fixed
upfront and recurring amounts. Management expects “considerable runway of
growth” from these arrangements over the next 12 to 24 months as deployed
infrastructure scales up.
Shortly
after the fiscal year closed, Beeks
launched Market Edge Intelligence, which the company described as an AI and
machine learning solution for monitoring capital markets data at the network
edge. The product delivers real-time analytics and predictive alerts for
infrastructure anomalies, capacity forecasting, and trading signals.
The
offering can be deployed standalone or integrated with existing systems,
creating what management called “a new channel of recurring revenue”
beyond the company's core infrastructure business. Beeks said early customer
feedback has been positive, with multiple conversations underway.
Outlook Remains Confident
Beeks said
its sales pipeline stands at record levels across all product lines, with
multiple opportunities involving leading global financial institutions. The
company cited growing customer desire to modernize technology infrastructure
and outsource non-competitive functions as cloud adoption accelerates in
capital markets.
“The
launches of the revenue share model for Exchange Cloud and the
first-of-its-kind Market Edge Solution enhance the scale of our opportunity and
the quality of our earnings,” McArthur said. “We move into FY26 in a
strong position, bolstered by a widened offering and a record pipeline of
opportunities.”
The board
said it remains confident of achieving results for the fiscal year ending June
2026 in line with expectations, despite being early in the period.
