FY22 Trading Update

Continued growth in line with expectations and strategic advancements

All Things Considered Group Plc (AQSE: ATC), an independent music company housing talent management, live booking, livestreaming and talent services, is pleased to provide an update on trading for the year ended 31 December 2022.

The Board expects to report FY22 results in line with market expectations*, with double-digit revenue growth and a significantly improved adjusted loss before tax. The improving trading conditions seen in the first half of the year continued through the second half as markets continued to get back to normal and live touring resumed. Strong progress was achieved in the Group's core artist management and development business with the recruitment of talent representatives supporting new client acquisition.

ATC's livestreaming investment, Driift, cemented its position in the industry following a landmark year acquiring technology and commerce platform, Dreamstage, and attracting a £4m investment by streaming platform Deezer. ATC now holds 32.5% of the enlarged Driift business.

Investment in the Group's operations and business divisions continued in line with management's strategy to build an integrated, full-service artist offering. During the year the Group launched new complementary divisions, including ATC Experience, and invested in personnel to bolster capacity to support growth plans.

The Group retains a net cash balance of £1.3m at year end excluding long term debt.

The Group expects to report audited results for the year ended 31 December 2022 in late April.

Adam Driscoll, CEO of All Things Considered, commented: "I am pleased with the progress we have made in the year, including a number of key operational and strategic achievements combined with the continued growth of our artist representation business. We continued to add to our artist rosters by attracting the best managers and agents into our business, as our ethos of 'empowering creators' continues to be a magnet for talent.

"We are excited about the prospects ahead for Driift as the livestreaming sector sees renewed demand with the re-emergence of live touring. With a solidified balance sheet, best-in-class technology platform and industry leading partnership, the business is positioned to scale.

"As we look ahead, we remain mindful of the wider economic backdrop across our geographies. However, our diversified approach across artists' commercial interests and established track record means we continue to be well placed to capitalise on organic and acquisitional growth opportunities in a rapidly evolving and fragmented music industry."

*Market consensus for the year ended 31 December 2022 is revenue of £11.0m and adjusted loss before tax of £0.3m.
