LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 21, 2026-- 

Endava plc $(DAVA)$ ("Endava" or the "Company"), the technology-driven business transformation group whose AI-native approach combines cutting edge technology with deep industry expertise, today announced results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 ("Q3 FY2026").

"This has been one of the more challenging periods Endava has faced in recent years. Demand remains uneven across sectors, deal cycles continue to be extended, and clients are scrutinizing technology spending more carefully than at any point since the macro slowdown began. Against this backdrop, revenue came in below expectations, margin contracted, and we recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment.

We are disappointed by these outcomes, but it is important to distinguish near-term execution challenges from our long-term strategic positioning. During the quarter, we accelerated our transition toward AI-native delivery and deepened our presence in payments transformation work. We also engaged more directly with senior client decision-makers on enterprise-scale AI initiatives.

We recently announced a collaboration with Mastercard combining our AI-native engineering and industry expertise with Mastercard's global reach and data-driven products and services. Additionally, we were selected as a strategic partner by Tyl by NatWest, NatWest Group's merchant-payments arm, to modernize and expand its payments-acceptance platform.

These initiatives, and others like them, have moved our AI driven business up from 5% of total revenue a year ago in Q3FY25, to 15% of total revenue in Q3FY26, showing the underlying momentum of our pivot.

By keeping our teams focused on these priorities and serving as trusted partners to decision-makers who are redefining their technology roadmaps, we believe we are positioning Endava to convert today's headwinds into tomorrow's momentum," said John Cotterell, Endava's CEO.

THIRD QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2026 FINANCIAL METRICS:

   --  Revenue for Q3 FY2026 was GBP178.5 million, a decline of 8.4% compared 
      to GBP194.8 million in the same period in the prior year. 
 
   --  Revenue decline at constant currency (a non-IFRS measure)* was 6.4% for 
      Q3 FY2026. 
 
   --  Loss before tax for Q3 FY2026 was GBP(372.0) million, compared to 
      profit before tax of GBP13.6 million in the same period in the prior 
      year. 
 
   --  Adjusted profit before tax (a non-IFRS measure)* for Q3 FY2026 was 
      GBP3.2 million, or 1.8% of revenue, compared to GBP24.6 million, or 12.6% 
      of revenue, in the same period in the prior year. 
 
   --  Loss for the period was GBP(394.4) million, resulting in diluted loss 
      per share of GBP(7.55), compared to profit for the period of GBP10.9 
      million and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") of GBP0.18 in the same 
      period in the prior year. 
 
   --  Adjusted profit for the period (a non-IFRS measure)* was GBP2.6 million, 
      resulting in adjusted diluted EPS (a non-IFRS measure)* of GBP0.05, 
      compared to adjusted profit for the period of GBP20.1 million and 
      adjusted diluted EPS of GBP0.34 in the same period in the prior year. 
 
   --  During the quarter, an impairment of GBP364.6 million was recognised 
      against goodwill, which is included as an exceptional item in the 
      condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. This goodwill 
      impairment has arisen due to the performance of the Company in the year 
      to date, as well as management's reforecast of the Company's future 
      performance through to FY31 and into perpetuity, by comparing the 
      Company's recoverable amount derived from future forecasts to the 
      Company's enterprise value. No goodwill impairment was recognised in the 
      same period in the prior year. 
 
   --  During the quarter the Group incurred a tax charge of GBP23.2m relating 
      to the derecognition of the entire UK deferred tax asset. The amount is 
      included as an exceptional item in the condensed consolidated statements 
      of comprehensive income. The derecognition follows a reassessment of the 
      recoverability of the deferred tax asset based on updated expectations 
      for future UK taxable profits. The reassessment is consistent with the 
      reforecast of the company's future performance considered in the 
      assessment of the recoverable value of goodwill. 

CASH FLOW:

   --  Net cash used in operating activities was GBP(0.4) million in Q3 
      FY2026, compared to net cash from operating activities of GBP18.7 million 
      in the same period in the prior year. 
 
   --  Adjusted free cash flow (a non-IFRS measure)* was GBP(3.1) million in 
      Q3 FY2026, compared to GBP17.5 million in the same period in the prior 
      year. 
 
   --  At March 31, 2026, Endava had cash and cash equivalents of GBP48.4 
      million, compared to GBP59.3 million at June 30, 2025. 

* Definitions of the non-IFRS measures used by the Company and a reconciliation of such measures to the related IFRS financial measure can be found under the sections below titled "Non-IFRS Financial Information" and "Reconciliation of IFRS Financial Measures to Non-IFRS Financial Measures."

OTHER METRICS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2026:

   --  Headcount totaled 11,225 at March 31, 2026, with an average of 10,166 
      operational employees in Q3 FY2026, compared to a headcount of 11,365 at 
      March 31, 2025 and an average of 10,272 operational employees in the same 
      period in the prior year. 
 
   --  Number of clients with over GBP1 million in revenue on a rolling 
      twelve-month basis was 129 at March 31, 2026 compared to 136 clients at 
      March 31, 2025. 
 
   --  Top 10 clients accounted for 40% of revenue in Q3 FY2026, compared to 
      39% in the same period in the prior year. 
 
   --  By geographic region, 38% of revenue was generated in North America, 
      23% was generated in Europe, 33% was generated in the United Kingdom and 
      6% was generated in the rest of the world in Q3 FY2026. This compares to 
      37% in North America, 22% in Europe, 35% in the United Kingdom and 6% in 
      the Rest of the World in the same period in the prior year. 
 
   --  By industry vertical, 23% of revenue was generated from Payments, 22% 
      from BCM, 9% from Insurance, 16% from TMT, 8% from Mobility, 11% from 
      Healthcare, and 11% from Other in Q3 FY2026. This compares to 19% from 
      Payments, 21% from BCM, 9% from Insurance, 18% from TMT, 8% from Mobility, 
      12% from Healthcare, and 13% from Other in the same period in the prior 
      year. 

OUTLOOK:

Fourth Quarter Fiscal Year 2026:

Endava expects revenue will be in the range of GBP181.0 million to GBP185.0 million, representing a constant currency revenue decline of between (3.5)% and (1.0)% on a year-over-year basis. Endava expects adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of GBP0.09 to GBP0.13 per share.

Full Fiscal Year 2026:

Endava expects revenue will be in the range of GBP721.8 million to GBP725.8 million, representing a constant currency revenue decline of between (6.0)% and (5.0)% on a year-over-year basis. Endava expects adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of GBP0.45 to GBP0.49 per share.

This above guidance for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2026 assumes the exchange rates on April 30, 2026 (when the exchange rate was 1 British Pound to 1.35 US Dollar and 1.16 Euro).

Endava is not able, at this time, to reconcile its expectations for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2026 for a rate of revenue growth or decline at constant currency or adjusted diluted EPS to their respective most directly comparable IFRS measures as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as share-based compensation expense, amortisation of acquired intangible assets and foreign currency exchange losses / (gains), net, as applicable. Accordingly, a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to Endava's results computed in accordance with IFRS.

The guidance provided above is forward-looking in nature. Actual results may differ materially. See "Forward-Looking Statements" below.

SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM:

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had repurchased an aggregate of 8,047,338 American Depositary Shares for $121.9 million under its share repurchase program. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had $28.1 million remaining for repurchase under our Board's share repurchase authorization.

CONFERENCE CALL DETAILS:

The Company will host a conference call at 8:00 am ET today, May 21, 2026, to review its Q3 FY2026 results.

NON-IFRS FINANCIAL INFORMATION:

To supplement Endava's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows presented in accordance with IFRS, the Company uses non-IFRS measures of certain components of financial performance in this press release. These measures include revenue (decline)/growth rate at constant currency, adjusted profit before tax, adjusted profit for the period, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted free cash flow.

Revenue (decline)/growth rate at constant currency is calculated by translating revenue from entities reporting in foreign currencies into British Pounds using the comparable foreign currency exchange rates from the prior period. For example, the average currency rates in effect for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025 were used to convert revenue for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026 and the revenue for the comparable prior period.

Adjusted profit before tax ("Adjusted PBT") is defined as the Company's (loss)/profit before tax adjusted to exclude the impact of share-based compensation expense, amortisation of acquired intangible assets, realised and unrealised foreign currency exchange losses/(gains), net, goodwill impairment charge, restructuring costs, exceptional people charges, and fair value movement of contingent consideration, all of which are non-cash items except for realised foreign currency exchange losses/(gains), net, restructuring costs and exceptional people charges. Our Adjusted PBT margin is our Adjusted PBT as a percentage of our total revenue.

Adjusted profit for the period is defined as Adjusted PBT less the adjusted tax charge for the period. The adjusted tax charge is the tax charge adjusted for the tax impact of the adjustments to PBT, the release of the deferred tax liability relating to Romanian withholding tax and the reduction of the UK deferred tax asset in full.

Adjusted diluted EPS is defined as Adjusted profit for the period, divided by weighted average number of shares outstanding - diluted.

Adjusted free cash flow is the Company's net cash from / (used in) operating activities, plus grants received, less net purchases of non-current assets (tangible and intangible). Adjusted free cash flow is not intended to be a measure of residual cash available for management's discretionary use since it omits significant sources and uses of cash flow, including mandatory debt repayments and changes in working capital.

Management believes these measures help illustrate underlying trends in the Company's business and uses the measures to establish budgets and operational goals, communicated internally and externally, for managing the Company's business and evaluating its performance. Management also believes the presentation of its non-IFRS financial measures enhances an investor's overall understanding of the Company's historical financial performance. The presentation of the Company's non-IFRS financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS, and its non-IFRS measures may be different from non-IFRS measures used by other companies. Investors should review the reconciliation of the Company's non-IFRS financial measures to the comparable IFRS financial measures included below and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's business.
