CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT
A heartfelt farewell
Dear Mitie Shareholder
In this foundation year of our Facilities Transformation Three-Year Plan (FY25 – FY27),
I am pleased to report that your company has made further strategic, operational and
financial progress.
This will be my final letter as your Chairman, before stepping down at the July 2025
Annual General Meeting (AGM). Reflecting on Mitie’s remarkable journey over my eight-
year tenure, one constant has been our unwavering commitment to understanding the
increasingly sophisticated needs of our customers and their built environments, amid an
evolving regulatory landscape and a shift in societal expectations.
In response, we have advanced our technology and data-rich offering to create smarter,
safer, cleaner and greener places, which are not only fit for today but will endure the rapid
changes anticipated over the years ahead.
Looking back to the start of my tenure in 2017, shortly after Phil Bentley was appointed as
CEO, your company was in a very different place. The first few years focused on improving
customer service and employee engagement, divesting businesses that could not achieve a
Mitie standard of excellence and market leadership, and strengthening the balance sheet.
These were the foundations on which we have built scale and operational leverage, including
through the acquisition of Interserve FM, enabling us to accelerate growth, improve margins
and generate sustainable free cash flow.
Our colleagues have been instrumental, not only in transforming Mitie, but in transforming
our customers’ estates. Their passion is evident in Mitie’s world-class Net Promoter Score
(NPS) – what our customers think of us – and in our sustained high levels of colleague
engagement. I extend my sincerest thanks and admiration to each of our 76,000 colleagues
for their dedication, determination and commitment to exceptional performance.
In FY25, revenue and operating profit before Other items reached a record £5,091m
(FY24: £4,511m) and £234m (FY24: £210m), respectively, resulting in an operating margin of
4.6% (FY24: 4.7%). Earnings per share before Other items increased by 3% to 12.7p (FY24:
12.3p), and we delivered a free cash flow of £143m (FY24: £158m). These results continue
to build on our strong track record and make a meaningful contribution to the delivery of
our ambitious Three-Year Plan targets.
When I pass the baton on to my successor, Christopher Rogers, I know that I am handing
on a company brimming with immense talent and a bright future. I have no doubt that
Christopher and my fellow Board members will continue to both support and challenge the
executive leadership team to drive growth and returns, while ensuring that we maximise
our positive impact on the environment and the communities we serve.
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
ESG matters are integral to Mitie, and we continue to be recognised for our leadership in
these areas. We remain on track to achieve our ambitious Net Zero targets, which will
see us become carbon neutral for our operations by the end of 2025. We are ranked in
the CDP’s Climate A List, alongside holding ‘Platinum’ status in the Sustainable Facilities
Management Index and a ‘Negligible’ risk rating from Sustainalytics. To attract and retain
talent, we offer industry-leading benefits to all colleagues. We are consistently recognised
as a Top Employer, and one of the most diverse.
Through its innovative, technology and data-rich approach,
your company has transcended traditional industry
practices to create better places for our customers and
thriving communities. I am immensely proud to have been
a part of this journey over the past eight years and extend
my gratitude to every one of our colleagues for their
contribution to our successes.

Stakeholder engagement
The Board is committed to understanding the needs of our stakeholders and acting on their
feedback, and we do so through an extensive programme of engagement. Board members
conduct a range of listening sessions throughout the year with our colleagues, many of
whom work on the front line, to hear their views and ensure open lines of communication.
We also attend equality, diversity and inclusion (ED&I) events run by our diversity networks
across Mitie.
It was my pleasure to hear the views of shareholders during my annual Chairman’s
governance roadshow at the start of the year, and to accompany Jennifer Duvalier, Chair
of the Remuneration Committee, in an extensive shareholder consultation on our new
Directors’ Remuneration Policy, which received over 80% support at the July 2024 AGM.
Board composition and changes
Mitie’s Board is diverse in skills, experience and background – qualities that are essential for
promoting robust governance and oversight. At 31 March 2025, 40% of Board positions
were held by women and 20% were ethnically diverse.
We adopt a proactive approach to succession planning, both at Board level and across the
executive leadership team. In March 2025, we were delighted to welcome Christopher
Rogers to the Board as the Chair Elect. Christopher brings extensive Board experience
across a range of sectors and is a highly respected finance leader with a wealth of
experience gained during his executive career. He will take over as Chairman when
I step down and leave the Board at our July 2025 AGM, and I wish him every success in
his new role.
Mary Reilly will be succeeded by Penny James as Chair of the Audit Committee when
she steps down from the role following the completion of the FY25 Annual Report and
Accounts. I would like to extend my thanks to Mary for her expertise and leadership in
guiding our financial oversight and ensuring the integrity of our reporting processes over
the past eight years.
Shareholder returns
Our capital allocation policy prioritises strategic M&A at returns materially above our
weighted average cost of capital; a progressive dividend policy with a 30–40% payout
ratio; and the purchase of all shares to fulfil employee incentive schemes. Surplus funds
are returned to shareholders via share buyback programmes to remain within our target
leverage range of 0.75x – 1.5x.
In this context, the Board is recommending a final dividend of 3.0p per share. When added
to the 1.3p interim dividend paid in respect of the first six months of the year, this brings the
total dividend for FY25 to 4.3p per share. This represents an 8% increase on the prior year
(FY24: 4.0p) and a payout ratio of 34% (FY24: 33%). The final dividend will be paid on
4 August 2025, following approval at the July 2025 AGM.
During FY25, we completed our largest share buyback programme of £100m. In total,
we have returned £179m to shareholders through buybacks, share purchases for incentive
schemes and dividends in the year, and have invested £48m in strategic acquisitions.
Our strong free cash flow generation and low leverage continue to support proactive
capital deployments, including a new £125m share buyback programme for FY26.
Closing remarks
As I conclude my tenure as Chairman, I reflect on Mitie’s remarkable journey. Your business
has transformed to become the industry leader, not only by market share, but also through
its investments in technology and innovation, and focus on its sustainability and social value.
I extend my deepest gratitude to my fellow Board members, our shareholders, customers,
colleagues and partners for their ongoing support and commitment. It has been an immense
privilege to be part of this journey, and I am confident that the foundations we have laid will
lead to outstanding outcomes.

Message from
Christopher Rogers
On behalf of the Board and all Mitie
colleagues, I would like to thank Derek
Mapp for his extraordinary contribution
as Chairman. During his tenure, Mitie has
emerged as the UK’s largest technology-
led Facilities Transformation business.
It is an honour to succeed Derek in this
role. I am delighted to be joining the
Board of a truly world-class company
with a highly experienced management
team, and I look forward to working with
them to continue to grow the business
and create value.
Mitie’s clear vision and commitment to
its purpose is evident, and I have been
deeply impressed by the dedication and
expertise of our colleagues as I continue
my visits around the business.
Engagement has always been the highest
priority for our Board, and I fully intend to
embrace these important opportunities
to hear the views of our stakeholders.
I hope to meet many of you, our
shareholders, at the July AGM.

MACRO TRENDS
Underpinning our growth
Our service lines and sectors have attractive growth prospects that are underpinned by
positive macro trends, ranging from decarbonisation and the modernisation of the built
environment to changes in the regulatory landscape and public sector areas of investment.
Decarbonising and modernising
the built environment
As the UK progresses towards its Net Zero goals, more stringent
requirements are being introduced for commercial buildings to
meet specific Energy Performance Certificate ratings. Currently,
c.80% of commercial buildings across the country do not meet the
Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) required by 2030.
Simultaneously, we continue to see an increasing proportion of
capital budgets being allocated to the redesign of workspaces,
as organisations embrace hybrid working and focus on amenities,
collaborative spaces, technology enablement, wellness and
sustainability to attract and retain talent.
Repurposing the electricity grid
The UK’s energy requirements are becoming increasingly reliant on
renewable sources, requiring substantial investment to modernise
and upgrade Grid infrastructure and build sufficient storage
capacity. To meet these needs, National Grid is investing up to
£60bn in its infrastructure network by 2030. There is also a market
opportunity for Independent Connection Providers (ICPs) across
the voltage spectrum, to fulfil the demand for private network
solutions and growth in data centre, battery and renewable
energy developments.

Accelerating data centre investment
Data centres are now classified as Critical National Infrastructure
by the UK Government due to their crucial role in the digital
economy and developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI). This step
aims to promote the continued investment in UK data centre
capacity by the major cloud service providers and is further
supported by the UK Government’s AI Opportunities Action Plan,
launched in January 2025, to position the country as a global leader
in this field. As such, investment in UK data centres is expected
to increase from £8.5bn in 2024 to £12.7bn in 2032 (Expert

Private sector as first line of defence
The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, also known as
Martyn’s Law, received royal assent in April 2025 and will place
the protection of public safety with those responsible for certain
buildings and events. Mitie has played a meaningful role in shaping
this legislation and is proactively engaging with customers to
implement security best practice in response to what is perceived
to be the most significant piece of legislation to impact the industry
in decades. Simultaneously, the outsourcing of security services to
the private sector by the UK Government is expected to continue,
and contribute to 3.0% annual growth in the £8.6bn security
market (Frost & Sullivan/independent research).

Increasing Defence spending
In February 2025, the UK Government outlined plans to increase
defence spending to 2.5% of GDP from April 2027, with an
ambition to reach 3% in the next parliament, and has widened
the definition to recognise the work of security and intelligence
agencies. This increase is aimed at building a modern and resilient
UK Armed Forces and accelerating the adoption of cutting-edge
capabilities in response to the rapidly evolving threat landscape.
The Ministry of Defence has c.130,000 built assets in the UK
and overseas, of which around a third of the estate requires
modernisation, while the wider estate must adapt to meet the
sector’s decarbonisation agenda.

Prison capacity shortage
At the end of 2024, c.85,000 individuals were held in the UK’s adult
prison estate, significantly exceeding the capacity the system is
designed to accommodate. The Ministry of Justice’s 10-year Prison
Capacity Strategy outlines plans to build an additional 14,000 prison
places by 2031, and it expects to invest c.£10bn to meet this target,
through a combination of new prisons, new houseblocks, rapid
deployment cells and the refurbishment of existing facilities.

Evolving response to immigration
According to the Home Office, approximately 108,000 people
applied for asylum in 2024 and approximately 35,000 arrived in
the UK by crossing the English Channel in small boats (+25% yoy).
With the continued high numbers of people arriving in the UK,
immigration will remain a political priority requiring significant
investment and support from the private sector. In March 2025,
the UK Government announced £30m of funding directed to
high-impact operations from the Border Security Command to
tackle supply chains in small boats, illicit finances and anti-trafficking.

Rising business crime
Rates of theft, fraud and cybercrime continue to accelerate as a
result of high living costs, among other factors. The retail sector
has been particularly affected by this, alongside acts of violence
and abuse towards shop floor colleagues, with the number of
theft incidents rising by 25% to 20m in 2024, according to the
British Retail Consortium. In response, retailers spent £1.8bn on
crime prevention measures (+50% yoy) and the total cost of retail
crime rose to £4.2bn, of which £2.2bn was a direct result of theft.
Mitie has led the way in creating Pegasus, part of a new specialist
police unit funded by retailers, to provide a national response to
organised crime.

Delivering transformative,
data-driven engineering solutions
We leverage innovative technologies to deliver transformative, data-driven engineering solutions
that evolve with the needs of our customers.
Intelligent Process Automation (IPA)
Intelligent Process Automation (IPA) is a key pillar
of our AI strategy. For example, during the year,
we implemented an autonomous AI email agent for
our engineering helpdesk to automate the process
of raising service requests and responding to status
updates. On receipt of an email from the customer,
this innovative solution is able to analyse text and
images to promptly diagnose the issue, raise the
service request, log it in Maximo and respond to
the customer, without human intervention.
The agent is live for eight customers and has
processed over 21,000 emails, raising over 5,500
service requests and saving over 900 hours of time
within the helpdesk team. It drives efficiencies and
enhances the customer experience by ensuring
prompt and accurate responses and improved first-
time fix rates. The AI email agent will be rolled out
to wider engineering helpdesk customers in FY26.
MiJobs mobile engineer app
We are transitioning our MiJobs mobile engineer app
to a new platform to enhance data accuracy from
connected assets and first-time fix rates. We have
also upgraded our Maximo systems to MAS 9.0,
enabling AI features in core engineering processes.
HARK
To enhance our predictive engineering capabilities,
we are migrating our Internet of Things (IoT) platform
to HARK, a cloud-based platform for collecting
and analysing real-time data using building sensor
technology and remote monitoring. This platform
enables our customers to improve their buildings’
energy efficiency and sustainability, extend asset
lifecycles, optimise space utilisation and improve
indoor air quality.
Mozaic 360
We have integrated our ‘intelligent’ solutions
into Mozaic360 – a unified platform that enables
customers to monitor service, asset and environment
performance, manage their contracts and conduct
benchmarking analysis efficiently across all services
delivered by Mitie.

Enabling Safer Communities through
intelligence, technology and people
Society is changing. Crime and protests are on the rise, including increasing violence against women and
girls and greater risks to retail workers. There have been 15 domestic terror attacks in the UK (excluding
Northern Ireland-related terrorism) over the past eight years, yet less than a third of businesses currently
provide their staff with specialist training on how to respond in the event of a terrorist incident.
New legislation, such as the Worker Protection Act 2023 and the Terrorism (Protection of Premises)
Act 2025, increase the requirements for business owners and those responsible for buildings to protect
their people and the safety of the public.
At Mitie, we are uniquely positioned through our intelligence, technology and people to ensure that
customers have all the information they need to make informed decisions, comply with new legislation
and meet their duty of care obligations.
From the moment an incident is reported, for example, via our WalkSafe or Merlin 24/7 Protection
apps, it flows through our intelligence hub and dedicated customer Security Operations Centres (SOCs),
creating a more complete picture of the threat and risk landscape and enabling Safer Communities.
WalkSafe
As part of our commitment to enabling Safer
Communities, Mitie entered into a partnership with
WalkSafe, combining their award-winning technology
with our experience as the largest security provider in
the UK. The WalkSafe app provides journey-sharing
features and a national Safe Space map, showing
venues across the UK in partnership with local
authorities and businesses that offer safety facilities.
It also has optional tracking features available, enabling
trusted friends to follow a user’s journey in real time,
should they need it.
Terrorism (Protection of Premises)
Act 2025
Mitie has played a significant role in shaping this new
legislation and is proactively engaging with customers
to develop and implement security best practice and
ensure the ongoing protection of people, property
and assets. This includes providing a range of security
services to help organisations remain compliant,
such as performing full physical risk assessments to
identify vulnerabilities and implement risk-based
protective measures. We also encourage wider team
member participation in training sessions, including
scenario tests and live exercises, ensuring that they
are equipped to respond in the event of an incident.
