accesso Technology Group plc, the ticketing and guest experience software provider, left its full-year guidance unchanged when it published half-year results on 15 September 2026. According to an automated summary of the report, Revenue for the six months to 30 June 2026 was $67.8m, broadly flat on $67.9m a year earlier, while Cash EBITDA rose 49.7% to $7.6m. The company is a constituent of the FTSE AIM All Share Index. The latest announcements found since then are holdings notices on 7 and 22 October 2026.

What the company does

accesso sells software to attractions and venues. The half-year report split revenue into ticketing and distribution, and guest experience, and described a move from standalone products to a connected, data-led software ecosystem, including accesso Intelligence and embedded payments.

The half-year numbers

Ticketing and distribution revenue rose 8.6% to $57.7m, which offset a decline in guest experience revenue. Cash EBITDA of $7.6m was attributed to operational efficiencies and cost reductions. The company kept its anticipated full-year revenue at about $146m and Cash EBITDA at about $20m. Figures are drawn from a machine-generated summary of the announcement. Profit, cash balances and any share buyback are not covered here.

Security incident and corporate changes

On 3 August 2026 the company disclosed an IT security incident involving unauthorised temporary access to a limited part of its systems holding internal Business information. It said the incident was contained, there was no operational downtime, the risk of financial exposure was assessed as low, and customers and relevant authorities had been notified. The investigation was ongoing at that date, and no later update has been found. The same day the company issued a half-year trading update and notice of results. On 29 July 2026 it appointed a joint corporate broker, and on 20 July 2026 a non-executive director. Director and PDMR shareholding notices followed on 25 and 30 June 2026.

Shareholder register and governance

Holdings in company notices were published on 5 June, 7 October and 22 October 2026, though the stakes involved are not described here. The appointment of a joint corporate broker in late July and a new non-executive director earlier that month point to some board and adviser refreshment during the summer. Directors' share dealings were also notified in late June.

Sector and index context

Ticketing and guest experience software is tied to visitor numbers at theme parks, attractions and venues, which in turn depend on weather, consumer spending and travel patterns. Software suppliers to leisure operators also face pricing pressure from large customers and competition from in-house development. Embedded payments and data products are a common route for software groups to raise revenue per customer. Constituent status implies nothing about weighting. No Dividend was mentioned in the announcements.

Key risks

Flat revenue with a falling guest experience line shows the shift in mix is not yet lifting the top line. Risks include dependence on attraction attendance, delivery of the planned product transition, the cyber incident's investigation outcome and the full-year guidance of about $146m revenue and $20m Cash EBITDA, which implies a stronger second half than the first.

What to watch next

Investors will look for the trading update that typically follows the year end, further disclosure on the security investigation, evidence of uptake for accesso Intelligence and embedded payments, and the holdings notices that may signal changes on the Shareholder register.
