("Tungsten" or the "Company")

Customer Loss

Tungsten Corporation PLC (AIM:TUNG), a leading provider of digital financial management products and software solutions, has been informed by an existing customer ("Customer") that they will not be renewing their Accounts Payable solution contract.  This Customer accounted for 5% of revenues in the twelve months ended 31 October 2020. 

It is expected that the transition away from the Tungsten platform will take 12 to 18 months and therefore an extension of the existing contract is being executed with the Customer to initially cover the period to 30 April 2022.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact on revenue and profits for the FY22 period and onwards and will provide a further update in due course.

Andrew Lemonofides, Tungsten's Chief Executive, commented: "We are disappointed to be advised of this decision and to be losing an important customer. However, we have a healthy pipeline of new business opportunities and will concentrate our efforts on replacing the volume relating to this transitioning contract over the coming 12 months."
