Posted by Brian Himes on Sep 4th, 2026

Subscription momentum remained strong: subscription revenue grew 14%, ARR rose 17% to £48.5 million, net revenue retention was 110%, and subscription revenue reached 37% of total revenue.
Total contract value increased 17% to £247 million, supported by two new wins and a late-stage pipeline of nine prospects. Management said customer implementations provide substantial visibility into future subscription growth, although project timing remains a risk.
Alfa is using AI to accelerate software development and simplify implementations, including a reported 75% reduction in data-transformation development effort in one example. New markets such as U.S. auto originations, fleet, and commercial finance are also expanding the addressable opportunity.
Revenue growth slowed to 4% at actual exchange rates, while operating profit fell 15% and operating margin was 28.3%, impacted by £1.6 million of severance costs, adverse FX hedge movements, and lower software engineering revenue.
Management maintained full-year expectations, forecasting slightly stronger subscription growth in the second half and overall growth broadly in line with prior expectations. Cash conversion is still expected at 80%–90% for the year despite 76% in the first half, and excess cash will temporarily be retained rather than returned through special dividends or buybacks.
