NOWVERTICAL'S STRATEGIC ACCOUNT STRATEGY DELIVERS RECORD-SPEED $1M+ ACCOUNT IN UK MARKET

Nowvertical Group Inc. enjoyed record growth from a U.K.-based strategic account secured in the second quarter of 2025. Engagements with the account, a global leader in financial and market intelligence, have reached over $1-million (U.S.) in contracted revenue within six months of the engagement. This represents the fastest scale-up of any account since the launch of the strategic account program.

The new U.K. account is currently engaged in a comprehensive data modernization program designed to unify commercial and finance data for the first time. The initiative introduces modern data technologies to create a single, connected view of business performance, enabling the client's senior leadership team to drive faster and more informed decision-making. Nowvertical is delivering this end-to-end transformation directly under the sponsorship of the client's CXO suite.

Rigorous selection and disciplined framework

Strategic accounts are chosen by Nowvertical's senior leadership across global markets using two criteria:

• Enterprise scale -- typically multibillion-dollar revenue companies with international reach;

• Transformation appetite -- organizations with strong demand for data modernization and artificial-intelligence-driven capabilities.

Accounts with this designation are subsequently governed by Nowvertical's framework for managing strategic accounts, ensuring executive sponsorship, structured account planning and deliberate cross-sell and up-sell execution. Based on this success, the program will continue to evolve to cover accounts which hold the greatest opportunity to drive revenue.

Strong program performance

Performance across the strategic account program continues to validate the model:

• $37.3-million (U.S.) in revenue generated in the past 18 months;

• In 2024, eight separate strategic accounts delivered greater than $1-million (U.S.) revenue, up from just three in 2023.

• 70 per cent of first-half total revenue now comes from the strategic account program, compared with less than 45 per cent before the program launch.

Proof of model

Nowvertical has repeatedly converted initial discovery engagements into multimillion-dollar partnerships. Several strategic accounts now exceed $5-million (U.S.) in lifetime value, with one surpassing $25-million (U.S.). The new U.K. engagement is the fastest account to reach $1-million in value, significantly ahead of typical ramp timelines.

"Our strategic accounts program continues to deliver exactly the kind of results we designed it for," said Sandeep Mendiratta, chief executive officer of Nowvertical. "When we focus on enterprise clients with scale and the appetite to transform, we're able to embed quickly, expand deliberately and compete successfully against global incumbents. This U.K. account is a clear example of how our disciplined model translates into high-quality, strategic revenue at speed."

Differentiation in a competitive market

Many strategic accounts invest $100-million-(U.S.)-plus annually in AI and data transformation, often working with major consultancies and technology partners. Nowvertical differentiates by:

• Specializing in customer, operational and finance data;

• Prioritizing outcome-based delivery over activity-based consulting;

• Embedding lean, high-impact teams;

• Using accelerator-led programs for faster value realization.

Path forward

With the model proven and velocity increasing, Nowvertical will continue to:

• Grow market share within existing strategic accounts through cross-sell and up-sell initiatives;

• Grow the number of strategic accounts through partnership and direct channel initiatives.

The company expects continued momentum from its strategic account program to drive scalable, high-quality revenue and sustainable shareholder value.
