("Oberon", or the "Company", or the "Group")

Interim Results - Revenue up 13.6%, accelerating front-office expansion, major investment in automation and systems, and a strengthened platform set to propel the next stage of growth

Oberon Investments Group plc (AQSE: OBE), the boutique investment management, wealth planning and corporate broking group, is pleased to announce its unaudited and unreviewed results for the six months ended 30 September 2025 (the "period"). These results reflect another period of growth, significant operational progress, and strategic investment designed to scale the business and position Oberon for long-term success.

Group Highlights

·        Total revenue increased 13.6% to £5.4m (HY24: £4.8m), with strong contributions from all divisions

·        Investment Management revenue up 22% to £3.4m, driven by new high-quality teams and continued organic growth

·        Corporate Broking & Private Ventures revenue up 3.7% to £1.4m, with 20 retained listed clients and a deepening pipeline.  Further strong performance has continued into the second half.

·        Significant investments in automation, operational systems and reporting infrastructure, is mostly now completed, enabling greater efficiency, scalability and real-time visibility of performance

·        EBITDA loss of £1.1m before exceptional items, reflecting continued strategic investment and the timing difference between immediate costs from new team hires and the subsequent contribution from associated revenues. Exceptional items included legal and other costs relating to new team hires and transaction costs associated with the proposed acquisition of WH Ireland

·        Strong pipeline of new team joiners, reinforcing Oberon's growing reputation as a home for high-calibre advisers and portfolio managers

·        Subsequent to the period end, the Group expects its investment in Logic, in which it currently holds a minority interest, to be fully impaired, resulting in a non-cash exceptional loss of approximately £0.85m.

Simon McGivern, CEO of Oberon Investments, said:

This has been a highly productive, important period for Oberon. We delivered revenue growth of 13.6% in the first half, with particularly strong momentum in our Investment Management division, where revenues increased by 22%. This reflects both the strength of our existing teams and the new high-quality individuals who have chosen to join the Group.  This is expected to continue further in the second half of the year as the effect of new teams and associated revenues is seen.

Beyond revenue growth, the real story of this half year is the transformation of our operating platform. We have invested significantly in automation, new finance systems, data-driven dashboards and enhanced reporting tools. These investments are already improving visibility, accountability and commercial discipline across the Group and will allow us to scale more efficiently as we grow.

We have also made substantial progress in strengthening governance, operations and management structures. Combined with the influx of new senior talent and the continued growth in our pipeline of prospective joiners, Oberon is better positioned than ever to accelerate growth and create long-term value.

The market is shifting rapidly, and clients and advisers alike are looking for a modern, nimble and entrepreneurial alternative. Oberon continues to gain recognition as that alternative.

Chief Executive's Statement

Introduction

I am pleased to present the interim results for Oberon Investments Group, marking another period of meaningful progress, strong divisional performance, and strategic investment across the business. Our continued focus on growth, innovation, and talent acquisition has driven a positive first half, reinforcing Oberon's position as a modern, dynamic and fast-growing investment group.

While we have continued to make considerable investment, this period has been transformative - not only in terms of financial performance and continued growth, but in the scale and strength of the platform we are building. We have invested in new technology, automation, operational systems and data-driven reporting tools that materially enhance visibility, operational efficiency and decision-making across the Group.  These investments, alongside our strengthened management structure and enhanced PR/marketing activity are already delivering results and will propel our growth in the years ahead.

Importantly, the recent program of investment is now expected to slow down and, with new systems and platforms in place, we expect the results of recent initiatives to flow through to profitability.

The senior hires and new teams who joined us over the past year are now successfully bedding in and contributing at or above expectations. The momentum we are seeing today is the direct outcome of the strategic decisions we made 12-18 months ago: early investment, a scalable operating platform, and the addition of high-quality talent.

Group Performance

Group revenues increased by 13.6% to £5.4m, supported by growth across all divisions, most notably in Investment Management where revenues grew 22% to £3.4m. Corporate Broking also delivered steady progress, increasing revenues to £1.4m, with Wealth Planning remaining broadly stable at £0.6m following exceptional growth in prior periods.

While we recorded an operating loss of £1.1m before exceptionals, this reflects our continued and deliberate investment in new teams, governance programmes and modernised systems. These costs are front-loaded, but the benefits - both operational and financial - are expected to be realised increasingly from the second half onwards as revenues from recently joined teams begin to flow through, and as major compliance programmes transition to BAU.  Costs relating to the proposed acquisition of WH Ireland's wealth division were classed as an exceptional item and amounted to less than £0.15m.

This year has also seen significant investment in automation, platform upgrades and real-time financial and performance dashboards. These developments position Oberon for scale, enabling tighter cost control, enhanced forecasting and improved commercial accountability across all divisions.

The successful equity and convertible loan fundraising completed during the period further strengthens our balance sheet and demonstrates clear shareholder confidence in our strategy, leadership and long-term vision.

Subsequent to the period end, the Board took the prudent decision to fully impair the Group's non-core investment in Logic Investments Limited, reflecting developments unrelated to Oberon's core operations.

Divisional Review

Investment Management

Investment Management delivered a strong first half, driven by significant inflows of Funds under Management and Administration (FuMA). The teams who joined us in 2023 continue to perform well, deepening client relationships and adding new assets.

During the period, we further strengthened our front-office capability with new teams and individuals. Despite their recent arrival, they are already adding AUM and momentum for the group. Our Investment Management team now stands at 18 Investment Managers, supported by a more sophisticated reporting framework and an enhanced leadership structure.

Looking ahead, we expect to launch a number of new services in 2026 alongside the already relaunched Oberon AIM VCT, expanding our offering for innovative clients and intermediaries.

Wealth Planning

Smythe House delivered another strong period and continues to attract growing demand for high-quality, governance-led strategic financial planning. While revenues were broadly stable in the first six months compared with last year (following substantial prior-year growth of over 300%), growth is expected to continue and accelerate in the second half and thereafter.  This reflects a disciplined focus on service quality and long-term relationships.

The division continues to invest in both front- and back-office teams to support future expansion. Our model focused on education, governance and personalisation - resonates strongly with entrepreneurial families navigating succession, liquidity events and intergenerational planning.

Corporate Broking & Private Ventures

Our Corporate Broking & Private Ventures division delivered a productive first half, generating revenues of £1.4m. The division now services 20 retained listed clients and completed seven transactions during the period, including IPOs, quoted raises and private fundraises.

Market conditions remain challenging; however, the strength of our pipeline for 2025-26 is materially ahead of expectations, reflecting the value of our differentiated approach and the improved alignment between Corporate Broking and Private Ventures. The latter continues to develop a portfolio of scalable technology businesses, and we expect 2025-26 to be an active year for larger fundraises.

Investment in Logic Investments Limited

Logic Investments Limited ("Logic") is a regulated investment and custody business in which the Group holds a minority shareholding. Logic operates independently from the Group.

Following the period end, the board of Logic concluded that the company no longer has reasonable prospects of avoiding an insolvent outcome and has commenced preparations to enter special administration. As a result, the Group expects its investment in Logic to be fully impaired, with an estimated loss of approximately £0.85 million.

Outlook

We enter the second half of the year with confidence and clear strategic momentum. The first two months of trading since the period end have been encouraging, and we remain on track to achieve our target of 30% like-for-like growth for the year.

The number of high-quality teams and individuals in advanced discussions to join Oberon continues to grow. This additional capacity - combined with our investments in automation, governance, systems and leadership - provides a strong foundation to deliver continued growth into 2025/26 and beyond.

I would like to thank our shareholders for their continued support, our clients for their trust, and our employees for their energy, resilience and commitment. Together, we are building a business with scale, capability and ambition, and I am confident in our ability to deliver sustainable growth and long-term value.
