AGM Statement

Parity Group plc (AIM: PTY), the data and technology-focussed recruitment and professional services company, announces that at the Company’s Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) being held at 12 p.m. today, Mark Braund, the Company’s Executive Chairman, will make the following statement:

“During the Company’s recent presentation, on 27th April 2022, of its results for the year ended 31st December 2021, we highlighted that the first half of 2022 was about identifying and building new business opportunities.

As a result of the reduction in costs in 2021, we have had scope to make investments in building capability in areas where the market is stronger and where we can deliver on new business opportunities in:

• We established a new team dedicated to Permanent Recruitment and can evidence both early success with placements and a rapidly growing pipeline;
• Within the private sector, we have added four new revenue generating clients since the start of the year and have focused our marketing initiatives on developing more private sector relationships and revenue; and
• Our core market in the public sector has not been overlooked and we are focused on expanding our reach within this area by winning places on new frameworks, adding four new local government frameworks within the last two months.

Over the last 12 months, we have changed the direction of the business and now have momentum that we are confident can be transformed into improved financial returns as we move forward.”
