Finablr PLC ("the Group")

Travelex results release for the three months ended 31 March 2019

Travelex, one of Finablr's network brands, today released results for the three months ended 31 March 2019. Travelex reports its financial results each quarter for holders of senior secured notes issued in May 2017 and maturing on 15 May 2022.

Travelex results - Financial and Operational Highlights

Core Travelex¹ Revenue (excluding disposed operation) grew 3% to £174.5 million from £169.5 million, at constant exchange rate² ("CER"), driven by a strong performance across geographies with Middle East and Turkey (ME&T) up 14% and UK & Africa up 8%. Core Travelex EBITDA (excluding disposed operations) grew 107% year on year to £2.9 million from £1.4 million at CER.

Travelex's year-to-date trading is in line with management expectations and consistent with the guidance set out for the Group at IPO. Travelex's revenue is generally lower for the first quarter of the year because a significant part of its business serves the leisure segment of the travel industry, which is particularly active during the summer season in the Northern hemisphere.

Full details of Travelex's results released today can be found on the Travelex Investor Relations website (http://www.travelex-corporate.com/EN/InvestorRelations/).
