Banqup Group completes divestment of UK print business, reinforcing strategic focus on core digital services

La Hulpe, Belgium – 11 August 2025, 7:00 p.m. CEST – Banqup Group SA, formerly Unifiedpost Group SA, (Euronext: BANQ) (Banqup, Company), a leading provider of integrated business communications solutions, today announced the completion of the sale of its UK print operations to the Managing Director of the UK business. 

The sale of the UK print business aligns with our strategic priority to rationalise the portfolio through the divestment of non-core, traditional communication services. This reinforces our focus on growing core digital services. The new ownership structure ensures a seamless transition with continuity maintained for employees and customers.

As part of the transaction, a strategic partnership agreement has been signed whereby the UK print business will become an authorised reseller of Banqup products.

The financial terms of the transaction have not been disclosed.

In 2024, the UK print business generated total revenue of € 7,0 million, with a gross margin of 39,1% and a positive EBITDA of € 1,1 million. The business employed 18 full-time equivalents in the UK.

Nicolas de Beco, CEO of Banqup Group, commented: “The divestment of the UK print business marks continued progress in our transformation into a pure-play SaaS provider and further sharpens our focus on scaling core digital services. We are pleased that Mark Hetem, who has successfully managed our UK print operations, will continue to lead the business.  I want to thank our UK team for their valuable contribution to our company over the years.  The partnership agreement ensures that we maintain a presence in the UK market while focusing our resources on growing our digital services in key European markets.

Mark Hetem, Managing Director of the UK print business, added: “I am excited to lead this business into its next chapter. Having worked closely with the team and our customers, I understand the value we provide in the UK market. The partnership with Banqup will allow us to offer our clients both traditional print services and modern e-invoicing solutions, positioning us for the evolving needs of UK businesses as they embrace digital transformation.
