(Sharecast News) - Beeks Financial Cloud said on Monday that it had secured its first contract for Market Edge Intelligence, its AI-powered analytics platform for financial markets, with one of the world's largest banks.
The AIM-traded cloud computing and connectivity provider said the five-year contract had a total value of $4.8m and followed the launch of the product earlier in the financial year and a successful proof of concept.
Beeks said the software would be deployed in one area of the bank's trading infrastructure, with revenue recognition beginning immediately.
The company said the contract further supported the board's expectations for the 2026 financial year and had "strong expansion potential" across the customer's wider trading infrastructure over time.
Market Edge Intelligence is designed for tier one and tier two financial institutions and is described by Beeks as the world's first AI and machine-learning solution for passive monitoring of capital markets data directly at the network edge.
It said the platform converts complex market and network data into actionable intelligence, helping customers identify issues, predict problems and uncover trading opportunities that traditional monitoring tools may not detect.
The platform could be deployed as part of Beeks Analytics, as a standalone product or alongside customers' existing systems.
Beeks said the open architecture broadened its addressable market and created upsell opportunities within its existing customer base.
Chief executive officer Gordon McArthur said securing the first Market Edge Intelligence contract with one of the world's largest banks was "an important early validation of the offering".
"It also underlines our ongoing evolution from a provider of infrastructure to a strategic partner providing clients with actionable insight to support performance and growth in an increasingly complex market landscape," he said.
"We remain confident in delivering a full year performance in line with expectations, supported by a growing pipeline across each of our offerings."
At 1153 BST, shares in Beeks Financial Cloud Group were up 17.83% at 191.48p.
