Scalable computing platform
We deliver a comprehensive general-purpose embedded
computing platform builtontwo mutually supporting
franchises: compute products and semiconductors.
Our compute products are high‑performance SBCs and compute modules, designed
tobring powerful, accessible and cost-effective computing to a wide range of applications.
SBCs provide industry-standard interfaces and plug-and-play simplicity, enabling rapid
prototyping and product development. Compute modules take thesame core technology
into embedded environments, allowing customers to integrate Raspberry Pi directly into
their designs.
Our semiconductor portfolio underpins and accelerates this platform. Microcontrollers
andproprietary I/O technology power our own products, and are also sold to thirdparties,
extending the reach and adoption of our architecture. Each franchise supports the other:
oursemiconductors allow us to build differentiated electronic products, while our electronic
products serve as the shop window for our semiconductors.
“The focus over FY 2025 has been on deepening the
product offering, responding to customer feedback,
addressing functionality and performance gaps,
anddelivering targeted, incremental improvements
to existing products.”
Our customer focus is illustrated by the new compute module variants with extended
operating temperature ranges, our first standalone Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth radio module,
helping OEMs build their own high-performance wireless-enabled products, andby
Raspberry Pi 500+, which combines high specification and affordability with the plug‑and-
play simplicity valued byenthusiasts.
Product roadmap and strategy
Our roadmap builds on the core themes that have driven our success and set
usapart: performance, price, accessibility and security, alongside the growing
importance of our own silicon and software. In parallel, continuing to strengthen
ourgo-to-market teams will enable us to secure additional design wins with larger
OEMs, both through our direct and indirect sales channels.

Martin Hellawell
Independent Non-Executive Chair
I am pleased to report a strong performance
for the year, supported by a return to more
normal demand patterns and channel
engagement alongside continued progress
against our long-term strategy. The Group
has shown resilience, discipline and a focus
on execution, particularly through the second
half as memory component supply
dynamics started to change.
We continued to attract great people,
strengthen our banking relationships, increase
engagement with prospective OEM partners
and diversify our supply chain. These
developments strengthen our ambition
tobethe world’s most trusted low‑cost,
high‑performance computer platform.
Financial performance
The successful execution of the strategy
isevident in the financial performance
oftheGroup. Revenue for the year was
$323.2million, with adjusted EBITDA of
$46.4million, up over 20%, ahead of the
Board’s expectations entering the second
half. This performance was driven by robust
demand through FY 2025, alongside higher
gross profit per board as we successfully
navigated increased memory costs.
Wecontinued to manage the business
prudently while investing in areas that
support sustainable, long-term growth.
Headcount increased by 6% during the year,
reflecting the targeted strengthening of our
finance, legal and marketing teams. Ending
the year with $28.1million of cash was
particularly pleasing, following the repayment
of a significant level of long-dated payables,
and we remain confident that over the medium
term, the Company will generate the strong
cash flows inherent in the business model.
Innovation and product development
FY 2025 was a year of consolidation
anddeepening of the product offering.
Afterintroducing several major platform
products in the prior year, our focus shifted
to strengthening our portfolio with targeted
improvements and new variants, shaped
bycustomer feedback.
This was also the first year in which
semiconductor unit shipments exceeded
board shipments, an important milestone
that highlights the momentum within our
silicon product line.
We remain committed to investing in
research and development and capital
expenditure to support future product
releases across both our electronics and
silicon franchises. Our roadmap continues
to evolve, with a focus on addressing
abroader range of use cases across
thelarge-scale IoT market.
Customer engagement and
strategic relationships
We continue to make strong progress
against our strategy to build deeper, more
direct relationships with our customers.
Our“Board to Board” programme, launched
following the IPO, has strengthened
engagement with senior leadership teams
atour prospective customers and our
understanding of the opportunity across the
industrial automation, smart infrastructure,
energy and aerospace sectors, including
defence. These discussions provide valuable
insight into customer priorities and help
ensure we are developing solutions aligned
with customers’ long-term requirements.
Many of the programmes we support
oftenrepresent step-changes in OEM
product roadmaps, requiring a considered
timeframe for design and launch.
Whilerevenue from these programmes
willtaketime to materialise, they present
ameaningful opportunity for the Company
aswe support customers in accelerating
their time to market through a range
ofvalue-added capabilities.
We continue to see healthy demand
fromboth new and existing OEMs.
Ourdirect-to-reseller and direct-to-OEM
approach enables deeper engagement,
stronger partnerships and improved
valuecapture across the customer
productlifecycle.
In 2025, sales through our direct-to-OEM
and reseller channels increased by over
36%, reflecting a stronger market backdrop
and underscoring the Companys opportunity
to capture increased margin.
Maintaining ESG momentum
Raspberry Pi has always had a strong sense
of purpose. From day one, the organisation
set out to broaden access to computing
and deliver platforms that were powerful,
accessible and energy efficient. That purpose
continues to guide us today. Ourenvironmental
and social impact rests on three pillars:
the educational work of the Raspberry Pi
Foundation;
the energy efficiency benefits of our
products; and
the support we provide to innovative
smaller OEMs that rely on us for
affordable, reliable computing.
As a public company, expectations around
ESG transparency and resilience naturally
increase. We are committed to improving
our reporting, including around MSCI
benchmarking, while keeping strong
momentum across our ESG initiatives.
Chair’s statement

The launch of our “Board to Board” programme
In September 2024, the Group launched the Board to Board programme to
strengthen links with board-level decision makers across global industrial and
embedded sectors. Building on Raspberry Pi’s success in prototyping, and in test
and production automation, the initiative focuses on converting this beachhead
into long-term, high-volume embedded business with multinational customers.
Engagement with CTOs at over 20 major UK industrial companies highlighted
anopportunity to raise Raspberry Pi’s C-suite visibility. In 2025, progress included
scaling industrial adoption with partner SECO, increasing trust in the Raspberry Pi
brand, and providing rapid technical value, positively positioning us across a range
of ongoing design discussions.
“It is increasingly clear that customers are
prioritising security, lifecycle certainty and
sovereign capability.”
See Q&A with Roger Thornton, Head of Applications, on page 14
People and culture
Our people remain central to the success
ofthe business. One of our core strengths
is the unique culture we have established,
which is entrepreneurial, engineering led
and deeply focused on solving real customer
problems. Over half of our employees are in
frontline engineering roles, and preserving
the culture as we scale remains a priority
for theBoard.
Employee retention has remained excellent
since our IPO, and I want to thank all our
colleagues for their hard work and continued
commitment during a busy year. We will
continue to invest in people alongside
increased use of automation to drive
efficiency and scalability across the business.
Since listing, we have strengthened our
governance framework. I am pleased with the
way the Board is operating, providing effective
oversight while constructively supporting and
challenging the management team as it
executes our growth strategy. Further detail
can be found in the Corporate Governance
Report on page 58. I would like to thank
Eben Upton for his outstanding work as
CEO. He excels technically and commercially
and is an inspiration to those around him.
Iam particularly pleased by how he has
made a seamless transition to life as a CEO
of a public company.
I would also like to thank Richard Boult,
whowill be stepping down as Group CFO.
Richard has made a significant contribution
since joining the Company in 2019, including
playing a central role in our IPO. He will remain
with the Company to support an orderly
transition through 2026, and we will update
shareholders on his succession in due course.
Supportive shareholders
We benefit enormously from the fantastic
encouragement and partnership of
theRaspberry Pi Foundation, whose
outstanding work continues to inspire us
and with whom our collaboration remains
strong. We are also delighted with our
shareholder register, which includes a
balanced mix of UK, US and international
long-term investors, our strategic pre-IPO
holders, and a knowledgeable and growing
retail investor base.
Year ahead
In the year ahead, we expect to
workthrough some external challenges,
includingongoing geopolitical volatility and
an AI-driven shortage of critical memory
components. However, our management
team brings more than a decade of experience
operating successfully in similarly complex
environments, including during the most
recent major supply chain disruption in 2022.
We emerged from that period a stronger
business, with enhanced operational discipline
and deeper customer relationships.
The next 12 months will require agility and
disciplined decision making but with robust
underlying customer demand, we believe
this presents an opportunity to further
strengthen our competitive position and
capture long-term value.

8 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
Over the years, we have shaped Raspberry Pi’s value proposition across hardware, software and collateral,
developing distinctive competitive strengths and attributes. These differentiators setusapart in our markets
and position us to drive sustainable long-term growth.
Dr Eben Upton CBE FREng
Chief Executive Officer and Founder
“For the first time,
semiconductor device
volumes exceeded those
of boards and modules –
a milestone on our
journey towards a
two-franchise business.”
Another exceptional year for
RaspberryPi
2025 was an exciting year for Raspberry Pi. It was
a year defined by delivery and by consolidation:
completing the current generation of our core
products, developing our semiconductor offering
and refining the channel relationships that allow us
to reach millions of customers around the world.
With the release of the Raspberry Pi 500+
all‑in‑one PC in September, we rounded out our
fifth-generation core product line up, freeing
ourengineering team to focus on work that will
indue course lead to Raspberry Pi 6.
An updated version of our RP2350 microcontroller,
released in August, delivered reliability and
performance enhancements, and was accompanied
by new variants that integrate non-volatile memory
directly into the chip package.
These developments were complemented by
accessory releases, including Radio Module 2,
Camera Module 3 Sensor Assemblies, and a
5"variant of Touch Display 2. Our expanding
range of board, module, semiconductor and
accessory offerings make it easier than ever
forour customers to engage with Raspberry Pi
technology, and for OEMs to integrate it into
theirown products.
Our continued growth is made possible through
the efforts of our global ecosystem of distribution
partners. Over the last year we have consolidated
our network of Approved Resellers, Authorised
Distributors and Design Partners with a focus
ondeveloping industrial and OEM sales expertise
in key geographies.
Delivering through transition
2025 was our first full year as a public company
following our listing on the London Stock
Exchange in June 2024. The transition has
beena rewarding one: regular dialogue with
ourinvestors has deepened our understanding
ofthe fundamentals of our business and
sharpened our focus on long-term value creation.
Our board and module unit shipments reached
4.0million in the second half, bringing total
shipments for the year to 7.6 million, an increase of
9% year on year, as demand strengthened
markedly through the year. We saw robust demand
in key international markets, particularly the United
States and China. Adjusted EBITDA of $46.4million
exceeded expectations, supported byfavourable
unit economics in the second half oftheyear.
Weended the year with net cash of $28.1million
after the repayment of $52.2 million of previously
extended supplier payables, demonstrating our
continued balance sheet strength and prudent
approach to capital management.
We reached an important strategic inflection
point in 2025. For the first time, shipments of
ourmicrocontroller devices, RP2040 and the
RP2350 family, exceeded those of our boards
and modules, with a total of 8.4 million units
shipped. This milestone represents a key step
forward inour ambition to build Raspberry Pi
intoa two‑franchise business, with both
electronic products and semiconductors making
significantcontributions to volumes, revenues,
and profitability.
Innovation and product execution
Technical innovation remains the linchpin of
oursuccess and in 2025 we launched 13 new
products (2024: 22). These new releases
delivered targeted support for an ever-growing
range of customer applications.
Industrial‑temperature compute modules and
new variants of our RP2350 microcontroller
extended our reach into challenging
environments and demanding deeply
embeddeduse cases.
Our premium keyboard computer Raspberry Pi
500+ was welcomed with excitement by
enthusiasts and we announced a partnership
with NComputing, a global leader in end-user
computing solutions, to bring it to the
enterprisemarket.
Responding to demand from our microcontroller
customers, we launched our first standalone
wireless module in June. Building on our heritage
of modular design, Radio Module 2 offers
integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth radios from
ourpartner Infineon, a compact form factor,
anda low-pin-count host interface. These design
choices simplify integration, reduce external
component count, and eliminate the expense and
complexity of radio certification, streamlining our
customers’ journey from prototype to production.
Our software offering continues to evolve
alongside our hardware. The Pico SDK and its
Visual Studio Code integration received major

CEO’s statement
9 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
A fast growing
semiconductor
platform
Raspberry Pi recognises that
semiconductor development is
capital intensive, time consuming,
and technically demanding.
The Company employs a substantial
in-house team of highly experienced
engineers, many with backgrounds
at world-class semiconductor
companies. This capability has
already delivered two successful
silicon launches, and growing
engagement with Tier 1 OEMs.
Looking ahead, the Company has
established a defined, fully costed,
multi-year roadmap to expand its
proprietary silicon portfolio. This
programme is expected to drive
continued performance
improvements across electronic
products while accelerating unit
growth and monetisation within the
semiconductor business,
strengthening both franchises and
supporting long-term value creation.
Innovation and product execution
continued
Connect now supports hundreds of thousands
ofdevices in the free tier and thousands more
inits paid-for tier and continues to see robust
month‑on‑month growth. At the end of the year,
we released over‑the‑air (“OTA”) update capability
for Connect. Support for OTA updates of IoT
device firmware is becoming a regulatory
requirement in many jurisdictions, and we
seethis development as a natural extension
ofour strategy to eliminate complexity for
ourOEM customers.
Artificial intelligence was a defining technology
theme of 2025, and edge AI represents a
significant opportunity for Raspberry Pi. Our
platforms allow OEMs to deploy AI applications
at the edge of the network, delivering improved
latency, privacy and cost compared to cloud-
hosted alternatives. We continue to work closely
with model developers and partners to ensure
that their workloads run performantly on our
platforms, and are confident that edge AI on
Raspberry Pi will play a key role in the next
decade of digital transformation.
Expanding markets and the
two‑franchise model
The continued growth of our semiconductor
business marks a new era for Raspberry Pi.
OurRP2040 and RP2350 microcontrollers
sitatthe heart of a thriving ecosystem of
partner‑developed products. For our existing
board and module OEM customers, our
semiconductor devices represent a vital next
rung on the scaling ladder, enabling custom
designs that can serve avast range of industrial
and embedded applications. We continue to
support these customers by providing the
engineering quality, transparent competitive
pricing and extensive technical collateral that
hasbecome our hallmark.
We continue to see the synergy between our
twofranchises as a powerful driver of long‑term
growth. Our boards and modules act as the shop
window for our semiconductor devices, while our
semiconductor devices allow us to build ever
more capable and efficient boards and modules.
As we move along this trajectory, our aspiration
is for semiconductor volumes to grow by orders
of magnitude, transforming Raspberry Pi from
acompany that sells millions of boards and
modules each year into one that also ships
billions of semiconductor devices.
Go-to-market strategy
We continue to strengthen our go-to-market
strategy, working with our Approved Reseller and
Authorised Distributor partners, and directly with
larger OEMs, to secure the design wins which
willdeliver medium-term unit sales growth
andimproved gross profit margins.
In the year, our number of Authorised Resellers
fell to 113 (2024: 117). After adding a net
13newApproved Resellers in 2024 we took the
opportunity this year to refine our distribution
strategy, retiring underperforming partners and
adding new ones to drive industrial and OEM
growth in key geographies. Key additions in
theyear included HT Componenti Srl in Italy,
Icompplus Electronics S.L. in Spain, eukleed in
France and Electronica Elemon SA in Argentina.
Our “Board to Board” initiative, launched after the
2024 IPO, continues to target larger-scale design
wins via direct senior-level engagement at major
OEMs. This more intensive approach provides
deeper insight into prospective customers’
technical and operational needs and allows
ustoleverage existing adoption of Raspberry Pi
technology in prototyping and production
automation into scaled OEM adoption.
In the year, we held more than 20 C-Suite level
discussions, supporting customers in addressing
critical challenges around security, connectivity
and supply chain resilience. These engagements
have increased awareness and understanding of
the Raspberry Pi value proposition at senior
levels in the target organisations and enhanced
our profile as a strategic partner rather than
solely as a technology provider. Numerous
project discussions remain ongoing, most
notably with OEMs in the smart home and
defence and aerospace sectors.
Tariffs
Our sales to US customers remain strong,
withrevenue growing 56% year on year.
Ourexclusively UK-manufactured boards
andmodules have been subject to lower
competitive tariffs than our predominantly
China‑manufactured competitors. Our major
USdistribution partners have worked closely
withus to maintain attractive pricing for our
products. In our education and enthusiast
market,we expect a meaningful competitive
benefit to arise from the abolition of the de
minimis tariff exemption onsmall, personal
shipments into theUS.
DRAM supply
Global DRAM markets tightened significantly
through 2025 and into 2026 due to AI-driven
demand. We have mitigated the impact on
ourbusiness through supplier diversification
andtargeted pricing adjustments and
continuetobenefit from inventory acquired
atlower historical prices. These actions have
supported supply continuity and profitability,
andcreate potential opportunities for market
share gainsagainst competitors who face
sourcing constraints.
CEO’s statement continued
10 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
DRAM supply continued
We expect the current supply environment to
persist beyond this year, although we would
expect some mitigation from demand elasticity
inthe short term and increased foundry capacity
investment in the medium term. Around one-third
of our boards and modules by volume either
useno DRAM (Raspberry Pi Pico products),
orolder LPDDR2 DRAM, for which we maintain
aseparate, substantial inventory buffer;
theseproducts are not exposed to DRAM
marketvolatility.
“AI is becoming normal
technology. Our role
istomake it practical,
affordable and local.”
Our people
We continue to make disciplined investments in
our sales and business development capacity,
building a commercial organisation that can
identify and win OEM opportunities at scale.
Weare strengthening our engineering, finance,
legal and communications functions, while
leveraging automation to drive operational
efficiency, manage costs and support
sustainable long-term growth.
At the end of 2025, the permanent headcount
was 140 employees (end December 2024: 132
employees) with 51% (end December 2024: 48%)
in engineering roles.
After seven years with Raspberry Pi, Richard
Boult, our CFO, announced in October that he
would be stepping down from his role before the
end of 2026. Richard has been instrumental in
maturing the finance function at Raspberry Pi
and has made an invaluable contribution to the
growth and development of the Company during
a period of rapid change, and most significantly
through the IPO process. I am deeply grateful for
his friendship and leadership over the past
half-decade. The succession process is well-
advanced, with strong candidates identified,
andwe expect to confirm anappointment in
thesecond half, ensuring an orderly and
seamless transition.
Post the year end we were pleased that
TimMamtora joined as Chief Operating Officer.
Formerly CTO at Imagination Technologies,
hewill oversee engineering operations, IT,
cybersecurity, facilities, warehousing and general
administration.
Roadmap
Raspberry Pi continues to execute its development
roadmap as planned. Major platform releases
typically arrive every four to five years, and as
weenter the middle period of the fifth generation,
weare allocating more resource to the design
ofthe next platform.
When it arrives, Raspberry Pi 6 will embody
thesame philosophy that has guided every
generation before it: significant improvements
inperformance, efficiency and usability, and an
emphasis on continuity in the software stack.
This approach lowers execution risk and ensures
that every generation of Raspberry Pi hardware
can be supported by a single codebase and
single software team.
On the microcontroller front, we continue
toevolve the RP2 architecture, exploring
opportunities to scale performance, reduce cost
and integrate additional functionality. A key
lesson from our compute module business is
that even small reductions in the engineering
effort required to use our products drive radical
increases in the rate of adoption; our
semiconductor roadmap reflects this insight.
A decade and a half after shipping the first
Raspberry Pi computer, we have built a
cost‑effective, high‑performance general-purpose
computing platform for professional engineers
and innovators everywhere.
We continue to learn from our customers, and
tobuild the products, and the organisational
capabilities, that will underpin our future success.
Outlook
We left 2025 with strong momentum in our core
electronic products business – the second half
was stronger than the first, and within that the
fourth quarter stronger than the third – and have
seen this momentum continue into 2026. Despite
price increases associated with the increase in
DRAM costs, we continue to see robust demand
from our OEM and enthusiast customer bases.
While the DRAM environment limits second-half
visibility, we have the inventory position, supplier
relationships and pricing flexibility to navigate it
effectively. We remain confident in our ability to
execute and view the current market environment
primarily as an opportunity rather than a threat.
It remains an immense privilege to lead
Raspberry Pi and to work with such extraordinary
colleagues, partners and investors. Together
weare building the infrastructure for a more
connected, intelligent and sustainable world
andwe are only at the very beginning of the
Raspberry Pi journey.

Q&A with
Roger Thornton
Director of Applications
Engineering
What is your role at
RaspberryPi?
I joined Raspberry Pi ten years ago, and
today oversee support andengagements
with existing and new customers looking
at designing Raspberry Pi into their future
product roadmaps.
The applications engineering team
reportsto the CTO and provides technical
support services both internally and
externally. Externally, we support customers
throughout the product lifecycle, from
advising on product selection and prototype
debugging toassisting with manufacturing
and go-to-market activities, including
regulatory compliance testing.
How do you and the engineering
team balance R&D with customer
commercial interaction?
We help customers take what Raspberry
Pi is incredibly good at, designing robust,
low-cost, high-performance general-purpose
computers, and implement it into their
specific application.
What are the key challenges
when talking to large potential
industrial customers?
First, they must ensure strong hardware
and software security, which we support
through secure-boot processes and
signed operating system images. Second,
they need to comply with rapidly evolving
cybersecurity standards; we provide deep
expertise, guidance and templates to help
them meet these requirements.
Third, manufacturing location is
increasingly important, and our customers
value that all Raspberry Pi computers are
designed in Cambridge and manufactured
at the Sony Wales factory. Finally, customers
require long-term product support, and
our commitment to extended lifecycles
gives them confidence in the stability and
security of their deployments.

Roger Thornton
Director of Applications Engineering
How quickly can the team
turnaround a design for a
newpotential customer?
We can help with proof of concept in amatter
of days from a meeting with customers, as
there is such a rich set ofproducts already
based on Raspberry Pi orprojects we can
pullfrom to demonstrate a feature set.
How has it helped being a
publiccompany?
Becoming publicly listed has helped address
one of the key barriers we face when engaging
with larger companies: theperception of the
brand as a hobbyist product in the industrial
markets. Being public also brings greater
accountability togrow and meet customer
needs. Thespotlight is on us, which serves
asauseful motivator.
How large is the
embeddedopportunity?
Embedded computing already powers a
huge number of objects, and it is only going
to increase. We’re working with companies
that already embed computing and are
looking to move from incumbent suppliers
or their own in-house designs to more cost-
effective, high-performance alternatives.
We’re also helping new companies address
opportunities that haven’t existed before,
thanks to the performance and ease of
useof our products.
What is the Board to
Boardinitiative?
Given the enormous success of the
Raspberry Pi computing brand, we know
that engineers around the world use our
computers across nearly every technology
sector. Our Board to Board initiative,
spearheaded by Ian Newton, Head of
Business Development and Strategy, plays
a key role in connecting with the executive
and board levels of companies.
Through these engagements, we are able
todemonstrate that where Raspberry Pi
istypically used in the prototype stage,
itcanalso be successfully deployed at
production scale. The level of interest and
the scale of these conversations continue to
be very encouraging although we recognise
these companies want to get it right and
that takes time.
What are the new emerging end
markets which excite you over
thenext three years?
Given our strong story across security for
end applications, I’m pleased to see this
open up markets that need this, like retail
and infrastructure. It’s also exciting to see
the product range from Raspberry Pi likely
grow into new form factors to address end
markets we’ve already seen success in.
Theform factors range from industrial
compute all the way to airborne platforms
that need compute.
How do semiconductors fit into
discussions with OEMs?
Customers are coming to us with their
value proposition that needs some level
ofcomputing to produce what they need
asa business. With the exciting growth
ofour semiconductor business, we’re
nowable to address a wide spread
ofcomputing needs, from simple
(microcontroller) all the way to Edge AI
imaging (CM5 + AI HAT + cameras).
It’salso a complementary business; often
acustomer needs both microcontroller
andmicroprocessor computing and we
cansupply them Raspberry Pi options
forall.
Have tariffs had much impact
onthe business?
Being UK based for design and
manufacture, we’re less affected by tariffs
than traditional manufacturing locations.
This is becoming an increasingly powerful
tool; competitors which are traditionally
more expensive than us, without tariffs, are
having an exponential increase when you
compare landed cost to Raspberry Pi
options. The US grew very strongly in 2025.
What role does sustainability
playwhen talking to customers?
Industrial manufacturers, when making
design decisions, focus on sustainability
and energy efficiency to reduce long-term
operating costs and environmental impact.
Key issues include low power consumption
and the ability to run on renewable or
limited power systems. They also value
product longevity and long-term support,
tominimise waste alongside responsible
supply chains. These principles have guided
our roadmap for over a decade and
continue to drive improvement.
How do you find your next wave
ofengineers?
Finding great engineers is challenging but
we are having growing success with our
intern-to-hire approach, which is bringing
intalent from varied backgrounds early.
These hires offer fresh perspectives and
often unique problem-solving styles.

Key competitive strengths
Value chain and R&D capability
Our R&D capabilities span the full value
chain from semiconductor IP development
through to finished electronic products and
software engineering. This vertically integrated
approach is distinctive within our industry and
allows us to control critical technologies,
optimise performance and deliver highly
cost-effective solutions. While we control
many aspects of design and IP, including
the testing of many of our products, our
long-standing relationship with our outsourced
manufacturing partners reduces our capital
requirements, improves scalability and lets
electronics designers focus on innovation.
We maintain strategic relationships with
world-class partners, including Broadcom
and Arm, leveraging their complementary
strengths in semiconductor development,
advanced chipdesign, radio-frequency
systems and power engineering. Our in-
house semiconductor IP underpins three
key products: RP2040, RP2350 and RP1.
These devices power our own platforms,
such as the Raspberry Pi Pico family and
Raspberry Pi 5, aswellas third-party
products, reflecting our position as both
aplatform and semiconductor provider.
UK manufacturing
Sony is a vital scalable partner for
Raspberry Pi, converting Cambridge-
designed products into global volumes
through a 14-year partnership. Manufacturing
takes place at Sony’s Pencoed UK Centre,
where production of SBCs, compute modules,
and accessories occupies half the floor
space, alongside Raspberry Pi owned test
facilities in France. Onshore manufacturing
and testing enables rapid iteration and cost
optimisation, while joint investment in
automation delivers low factory-gate prices
despite a high-labour costeconomy.

Commercial model
In the year, revenue from SBCs, compute
modules, accessories and related components
represented approximately 99% of total revenue.
Our flexible hybrid distribution model combines:
sales through a global network of more
than113 Approved Resellers and direct
relationships with hundreds of OEMs; and
licensing of product designs to our partner
Premier Farnell, which manufactures
independently and pays per-unit royalties.
This approach allows efficient management
ofgross margins and working capital.
Onaverage, gross profit per unit from a
salethrough a reseller is approximately
doublethe per-unit royalty received on a
licensee-manufactured unit, while direct
salesenable us to retain the full
distributionmargin.

Operating model and cost structure
With the exception of silicon and electronics
manufacturing, which is fully outsourced, and
the design of SBCs and compute modules,
which is fully in house, we make strategic
decisions on insourcing versus collaboration
across the value chain. This flexibility enables
usto design components that work efficiently
together, diversify supply and mitigate
dependency on any single supplier.
Our cost base comprises three main elements:
people: approximately 140 employees, c.51%
of whom are engineers, with a substantial
portion of engineering costs capitalised;
manufacturing: conducted through our
long‑standing partner Sony in Wales; and
components: including key silicon and
memory used in our boards.
We maintain strong control over our bill
ofmaterials through strategic inventory
management, rapid supplier qualification and
the ability to implement engineering changes
quickly. These capabilities have enabled us to
manage supply chain volatility effectively in
recent years and provide resilience in future
market cycles. We retain flexibility to adjust
pricing when appropriate, while remaining
committed to protecting and enhancing the
Raspberry Pi brand. This disciplined approach
was reflected in the selective price increases
introduced in the second half of 2025, ensuring
continued investment in product innovation and
supply resilience while maintaining our value-led
market position.
Return on investment
The Company continually seeks to optimise products and processes across
the entire supply chain, from IP design through to maximising output of
finished computer boards and semiconductors. Over the past two years,
investment in our owned testing equipment in France has delivered a c.3%
improvement in chip production yield.
With annual fabrication volumes of approximately 15 million chips, across
RP1 processors used in our boards and RP2040 and RP2350 microcontroller
products, this £1 million (c.$1.3 million) investment has significantly
reduced failed units and is now generating annual cost savings in excess
of£2 million (c.$2.6 million).

“As channel inventories
cleared and demand
returned, unit sales
strengthened through
the year, lifting gross
profit by 23% and driving
a 25% increase in
adjusted EBITDA.”
Financial review
2025 was a year of good progress as
theexcess inventory purchased by sales
channel partners in 2024 cleared and
demand returned to expected levels.
Unitsales continued to improve through
2025, accelerating in the second half, with
H2 2025 board unit volumes increasing
11%. The growth has been in higher-margin
boards leading to an 18% increase in profit
per board and a 23% increase in the
grossprofit.
Costs grew at a similar rate to gross profit
resulting in a 25% increase in adjusted
EBITDA and a 35% increase in adjusted
operating profit.
Through the period we continued to
investin product development, with capital
expenditure of $18.2 million consistent with
our plans and guidance. This investment
will ensure a continued programme of new
products and semiconductors. At the same
time we have maintained close control of
our finished good inventory while deploying
capital to ensure that our stocks of memory
and processor components were sustained
to ensure resilience in the face of
anticipated supply chain disruption.
As part of that resilience we have
continuedto focus on our cash resources.
We reinforced our position in early 2025
byincreasing our RCF to $80 million and
extending its term to 2029.At the end
of2025 we had $28.1 million of cash
andnodebt.

Basis of preparation of the financial statements
These consolidated financial statements are the second Annual Report for Raspberry Pi
Holdings plc, the Group formed in May 2024. Thecomparator period for these statements
(“2024”) has been prepared as if the Group had been in place for the entirety of the 2024
financial year. For further information see Note2 of the consolidated financial statements.
Unit sales of SBCs and compute modules andmicrocontrollers
Total board sales volumes increased by 9% compared to 2024 with growth in sales through
the direct channel more than offsetting the decline in royalty sales.
Million units 2025 2024 % change
Unit sales in direct channel 5.8 4.9 18%
Unit sales through licensees 1.8 2.1 (14%)
Total unit sales 7.6 7.0 9%
Direct sales share of total 76% 70% +6ppt
Licensee share of total 24% 30% -6ppt
Microcontroller units 8.4 5.7 47%
Unit sales for the year improved across almost all product variants with particularly strong
underlying growth in Raspberry Pi 3 and Raspberry Pi 4. There was underlying growth in
Raspberry Pi 5 and growth enhanced overall by a full year of sales in 2025 of the 2GB and 16GB
variants, launched during 2024, and the launch at the end of 2025 of Raspberry Pi 5 1GB.
Unit sales of compute modules were flat compared to 2024 which had a particularly strong
Q1 as the last back orders of the 2023 supply chain shortage were fulfilled. Sales of Pico
and Pi Zero were flat in total.
Royalty sales of Raspberry Pi 5 by our licensee, Premier Farnell, were lower year on year after
astrong Q1 2024 when unit sales benefited from the recent launch of the Raspberry Pi 5.
Sales of Raspberry Pi 4 increased substantially, in line with the increases in the direct
saleschannel.
Direct unit sales continued to grow sequentially each half from the start of 2024 as the
excess inventory accumulated in channel in H1 2024 was utilised. Direct sales in H2 2025
were 15% up on H1 2025, with circa 33% growth in compute module and Raspberry Pi 4
sales, 32% growth of Raspberry Pi Zero 2 and flat sales of Raspberry Pi Pico, Raspberry Pi 5
and Raspberry Pi 3.
For the year, direct unit sales were 76% of total board unit sales in line withour expectations
of a share of 70–80%.
Microcontroller unit sales, which include standalone product sales and those incorporated in
other Raspberry Pi products such as Raspberry Pi Pico boards, increased by 47% to 8.4 million
units (2024: 5.7 million units) aided by the new products RP2350 and Raspberry Pi Pico 2 and
the continuing adoption of RP2040 including individual orders for over 100,000 units.
Revenue
Revenue increased by $63.7 million, or 25%, from $259.5 million for 2024 to $323.2 million
for 2025. The split by revenue category was as follows:
$ million 2025 2024 % change
Products 247.0 181.2 36%
Components 60.2 61.2 (2%)
Royalties 15.0 15.9 (6%)
Publishing 1.0 1.2 (17%)
323.2 259.5 25%
Product revenues are generated by supplying SBCs, compute modules, accessories and
semiconductors directly to Approved Resellers and original equipment manufacturers
(“OEMs”). Royalties are earned per unit on products that Premier Farnell has manufactured
(Pi 5) or sold (Pi 4) by licensing our designs and trademarks.
The increase in direct product sales largely relates to the 39% increase in sales of SBCs
andcompute modules combined with a 26% growth in the sale of accessories. Direct sales
revenue grew substantially ahead of unit growth with ASP increasing 8%, furthermore unit
growth was significant in the higher value Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 5 boards.
Component sales represent the sale of principally memory and processor chips, used
inthemanufacture of Raspberry Pi products for our licensee which are then sold to
endcustomers.
Average selling price (“ASP”) per board
ASP increased by $3.4 from $43.3 in 2024 to $46.7 in 2025 due to an increase in the mix
ofhigher-priced Raspberry Pi 5 boards, especially those with 8GB of memory (launched
inQ4 2023), and more compute module 5s.

Board share of gross profit 85% 82% +3ppt
Accessory margin per board 1.4 1.2 17%
SBC and compute module gross profit per board increased by 18% from $7.4 to $8.7 due to
theplanned $5 per unit reduction in the cost of the processor chip in the Raspberry Pi 5 for
the initial 2million processor chips and a shift in the mix of boards to higher-margin variants
such as Raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi 5. In H2 2025 we have seen substantial and continuing
increases in the cost of LPDDR4 memory used in our fourth and fifth-generation boards which
represent approximately 65% of our unit sales in 2025. In making these boards we have utilised
24 million gigabytes of DRAM with an average of 4.9 GB per board, representing 21% of the
cost of direct boards.
The gross profit of accessories increased by 28% to $10.9 million. Of the gross profit from
accessories, cameras accounted for 19%, displays 15%, power supplies 20%, SSD and SD
memory 10% and AI HATs 10%, with cables, cases and compute module accessories being
the majority of the remainder. Growth was notable in cameras, memory, AI HATs and
displays, while flat in cases, cables, mice and kits. Overall, the accessory profit per board
improved to $1.4 per board, ahead of our target of $1 per board.

Gross profit increased by $14.6 million, or 23%, from $63.2 million in 2024 to $77.8 million
inthecurrent period due to higher unit sales and profit per board together with a strong
performance from sale of accessories. The microcontroller results in 2024 benefited from
arelease of $3.0 million of provisions made for an excess quantity of inventory in 2023.
Gross margin reduced to 24.1% (2024: 24.4%) as a result of the lower proportion
ofhigher‑margin licensee revenues.

Adjusted research and development expenses 11.2 8.7
Adjusted research and development expenses increased 29% to $11.2 million for the year
ended 31December 2025 from $8.7 million in the prior year. This reflects higher investment
anumber of areas that do not meet our capitalisation requirements, including ongoing
development of the software that runs on our boards and refinement of already launched
products. The engineering cost of these items is therefore expensed. Total research and
development expenses rose by 26% to $22.5 million (2024: $17.9 million). This includes
share‑based payments costs for engineering staff which are excluded from the adjusted
measure as they are non-cash items and the charges are not comparable across periods due
to fluctuations arising the listing process. Amortisation of launched product development
costs, net of capitalised amounts, also increased to $6.8 million (2024:$6.3million), reflecting

The strong results for the year led to higher performance-related payments compared to
2024 and account for much of the adjusted expense increase. Of the remainder, there was
an increase in staffcosts primarily due to the scaling of the Senior Management Team and
a full year of higher listed company-related costs. Total administrative expenses dropped by
0.4% to $27.6 million (2024:$27.7 million), due to the absence of non-recurring costs.

(2024: $1.2 million) being the unwinding of the imputed discount representing the time value
ofmoney on extended payables.
Share-based payments
A share-based payment charge of $8.7 million (2024: $4.7 million) was recorded in the year
together with a credit of $0.8 million (2024: $1.3 million charge) in respect of changes in the
provision for employment taxes payable on these schemes when they crystallise.
The Group has three main schemes in operation:
a market value option scheme awarded in June 2024 which is in respect of options over
11 million shares and runs until June 2027, with the fair value of those options being
spread over the three-year life. This scheme was intended to retain and motivate staff
inthe transition from private to public ownership. The charge in 2025 was $5.2 million;
a four-year RSU programme for staff, the first grant of which was made in 2025 with
shares released evenly each quarter. The fair value (the market value of a share at date
ofaward) of each quarter’s tranche is charged evenly over the period to its date of
release. The income statement charge is therefore at its greatest in the first year and
reduces in subsequent years. It is intended that the similar awards will be made for each
financial year. The charge in 2025 was $2.8 million; and
a three-year performance share scheme for the Senior Management Team based on
apercentage of salary. The amount of award granted depends on achievement against
EPS and TSR targets. The charge in 2025 was $0.6 million.
A provision for employment taxes for each of these schemes is required based on the
intrinsic value of the awards granted. The intrinsic value moves with the share price of the
Group. As the share price at the end of 2025 was lower than the price at the end of the last
reporting date or at the time of grant the provision has reduced, leading to a credit of
$0.8million in the income statement.
Non-recurring costs
Costs of $2.9 million were charged to the income statement in 2024 in respect of fees and
charges arising from the listing process which were incurred to prepare the business for
operation after listing. There were no comparable costs in 2025 or other items identified
asnon-recurring.
Taxation
The total effective tax rate for 2025 was 18.1%, lower than the 25.0% rate due to the
treatment, after receiving the appropriate patent, of RP2040 and Raspberry Pi 5 profits
underthe UK patent Box regime and the release of tax provisions made in respect
oftaxation in2024 after the receipt of further confirmatory external advice.

onlyin part by a 23% increase in costs. Adjusted operating profit increased to $35.9million
(2024:$26.5million), reflecting the growth in adjusted EBITDA and the flat depreciation
andamortisation charges.
Operating profit and profit after taxation for the period
Reported operating profit for the period was $28.0 million (2024: $17.6 million). The results
for2024 included $2.9 million of one-off charges in respect of the IPO and charges for
share‑based payments that included the charges for the pre-IPO share-based payment
scheme that ended in June 2024 and six months of costs in respect of post-IPO share schemes.
Profit after taxation was $21.7 million (2024: $11.7 million), an increase of $10.0 million
primarily reflecting the improvement in reported operating profit identified above.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share for the year ended 31December 2025 was 11.22 cents, up
from6.48 cents in the prior year, reflecting a higher profit after tax of $21.7 million
(2024:$11.7million). Diluted earnings per share was 11.00 cents (2024: 6.20 cents),
withtheimpact of unvested employee share options increasing the weighted average
number ofshares to 197.3 million.
Adjusted basic earnings per share, which excludes the impact of non-recurring costs and
share‑based payments net of tax, was 14.48 cents (2024: 10.69 cents) an increase of 35%
in line with the increase in adjusted operating profit.

Inventory
Inventory of finished goods decreased to $31.2 million (2024: $63.8 million) due to
increasing demand for products and the adjustment of production to reflect the revised
levels of demand. The inventory of boards is now at about one month of sales and is at
probably at the lowest possible level. Component inventory has increased by $21.2 million
with stock of memory held for future production being the principal cause of the increase.
Stocks of processor chips have remained at similar levels to 2024. Taken with confirmed
orders for delivery, the Group has sufficient supply of DRAM for the first half of 2026 across
most memory variants and has sufficient memory to meet expected demand for almost the
whole of 2026 in respect of Raspberry Pi 3, Raspberry Pi Zero and the 1GB and 2GB variants
of Raspberry Pi 4, Raspberry Pi 5 and compute modules.

Other working capital movements
Payables decreased compared to December 2024 as the payables with extended payment
terms for memory and processor chip purchases were repaid. The extended payable
balance at December 2024 was $52.2 million. The increase in receivables reflected the
higher level of product sales in December compared to a year earlier together with a high
level of component sales in the last month of 2025.

work on new products and further semiconductor development for use in future boards.
Inaddition to the external purchases the capital expenditure includes the capitalisation
ofengineering salaries of $6.8 million (2024: $8.1 million). Where development licences
arepurchased for use in new products, these are initially capitalised in intangibles and then
amortised. The amortisation amounting to $6.8 million (2024: $6.0 million) and depreciation
of$0.3 million (2024: $nil) as they relate tothedevelopment of a new product are then
capitalised in a product development asset forthat project. Of its nature, this amortisation
anddepreciation is non-cash and is shown as non-cash additions.
Cash and facilities
Cash at 31December 2025 was $28.1 million (31December 2024: $45.8 million). On 5 March 2025,
a new Revolving Credit Facility with four banks on terms more suitable to a listed group and
at substantially reduced pricing was entered into replacing the existing facility. Available
funds were increased to$80 million (2024: $40 million) and with a term until 4 March 2029

Chair of the Sustainability Committee
“By maintaining our
commitment to long-
term product availability
– supporting devices
forover a decade –
weactively combat
theindustry norm
ofobsolescence and
electronic waste.”
Building on the foundations we set in our
inaugural 2024 Annual Report, I am pleased
to present the Sustainability Committee’s
statement for 2025. Following our listing
onthe London Stock Exchange, the award
of the LSE Green Economy Mark remains
aproud testament to the efficiency of
ourtechnology.
This year, Raspberry Pi has accelerated its
commitment to sustainable operations. At a
high level, our strategy continues to balance
commercial growth with environmental
responsibility. A standout achievement in
our manufacturing process has been the
wider adoption of intrusive reflow soldering.
This innovation has not only improved
production throughput but significantly
reduced the energy intensity and carbon
footprint of our soldering operations.
We have also made strides in our
productstewardship. By maintaining
ourcommitment to long-term product
availability – supporting devices for over
adecade – we actively combat the industry
norm of obsolescence and electronic
waste. Meanwhile, our ongoing refinement
of packaging has seen a continued
reduction in plastic usage and shipping
volumes, lowering the carbon cost
oflogistics.
Our corporate footprint is equally
apriority.Our main offices now benefit
fromexpanded solar generation capacity
and the transition to heat pump technology,
moving us closer to our office net zero
ambitions. Additionally, our partnership with
UNDO tosupport enhanced rock weathering
demonstrates our willingness to invest
inhigh-quality carbon removal.
2026 will see us build on the work we’ve
done on understanding the carbon
emissions that are generated from our
computing products. This will strengthen
our partnerships with world-class
institutions and other thought leaders
inthespace to produce accurate and
accountable carbon emissions figures
forour products.
As we look ahead, the Committee remains
dedicated to ensuring that Raspberry Pi
notonly democratises technology, as part
of its societal agenda, but does so with
aminimal resource footprint, delivering
value to our shareholders, our community
and the planet.

Our approach to sustainability is underscored by the four facets of our
social mission, aligned to the UNSustainable Development Goals:
Funding computer science
education at home and
inschools
The educational work of our largest
shareholder, the Raspberry Pi
Foundation, whose mission is to
promote digital skills education for
young people, is deeply intertwined
with our own success.
In 2024, we were incredibly proud
toraise a $180 million multi-year
endowment for the Raspberry Pi
Foundation, supporting its work
incurriculum development, teacher
training, non-formal learning
andresearch.

Our approach to
sustainability
Raspberry Pi recognises that sustainability
isanintegral part of our responsibility toall
stakeholders. As a UK-listed public company,
weare committed to maximising value for
ourshareholders while acknowledging the
interconnected nature of our business with
broader societal and environmental concerns.
We believe that sustainable practices can enhance our brand reputation,
potentially driving demand and strengthening our long-term market position.
Whilequantifying the precise impact of sustainability initiatives remains a
challenge, we are dedicated to transparently reporting our progress and actively
seeking ways to minimise our environmental footprint while supporting the
valuable work of the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
Powering start-ups and
scale-ups
We offer cost effective compute
subsystems to smaller
entrepreneurial OEMs, who
wouldotherwise struggle to access
them allowing them to build their
own products faster.
See page 23 for more information on our
progress with OEMs
Low-power computing
On entrance to the Main Market
ofthe London Stock Exchange,
Raspberry Pi was awarded the Green
Economy Mark, meaning that at
least 50% of its annual revenue
comes from products and services
that have a positive environmental
impact. The Mark provides a clear
and recognisable signal to investors
and the public abouta company’s
commitment tothegreen economy.
Our commitment
Sustainability continued
34 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
We will conform to all UK
sustainability laws and regulations
inthe most cost-effective way possible,
with integrity andtransparency.
We will monitor voluntary
sustainability best practice amongst
public companies in the UK, and
conform to voluntary best practice
where the impact on short-term
profitability is small, or where we
judgethat the medium- tolong-term
financial consequences of failure
toconform outweigh anyshort-term
profit reduction. Deviation from
bestpractice will be transparently
documented and explained.
We will work proactively
toencourage suppliers toreduce
thecarbon footprint and other
environmentally damaging aspects
ofsupplied goods. For example,
Raspberry Pi may include a financially
quantified measure of embedded
carbon when comparing costs of
twosuppliers. When quantifying
embedded carbon, Raspberry Pi will
calculate the financial equivalent with
reference to the cost of high-quality
offsets, such as direct air capture
orenhanced rock weathering.
Thisinclusion of the mitigation cost
of embedded carbon in supplier
costcomparison will be transparent
inthe evaluation process, and
willbecommunicated tosuppliers.
In general, we will not undertake
financial transactions to mitigate the
carbon footprint of Raspberry Pi’s
own products, such as purchasing
carbon offsets, unless this is necessary
for regulatory compliance. Wewill
offset Scope 1 and 2 emissions of the
Company. Where a voluntary choice
can be made, Raspberry Pi will not
increase the cost of its products
through such transactions. Raspberry
Pi’s preferred approach is to keep the
cost of its products as low as possible
and publish the embedded content.
This allows Raspberry Pi customers
topurchase offsets (either through
Raspberry Pi or elsewhere), if they
sodesire, for the same overall cost
(product + offset).
“We will work proactively to encourage
suppliers to reduce the carbon footprint
and other environmentally damaging
aspects of supplied goods.”
Introduction
Following our first year of TCFD reporting, we continue to monitor the six high-priority risks and two opportunities identified by our Chief Commercial Officer and key stakeholders.
Todeepenour understanding of these factors, we have this year supplemented our qualitative baseline with a completed Quantitative Scenario Analysis.
This analysis provides data-driven insight into the financial resilience of our strategy under different climate futures. With the integration of these quantitative metrics, we have addressed
previous reporting gaps to achieve full TCFD compliance. In accordance with UK Listing Rule (“UKLR”) 6.6.6R(8), we present our compliance statement in the following table:

Strategy
Raspberry Pi’s sustainability reporting strategy centres on a proactive approach to
identifying and evaluating climate-related risks and opportunities that could impact the
business in the short, medium and long term. This includes a thorough assessment of
potential physical risks within their supply chain and distribution network due to extreme
weather events, as well as the risks andopportunities presented by the transition to
lower‑emission products and services. Raspberry Pi emphasises continuous evaluation
ofthese factors to understand their potential positive andnegative effects, with regular
oversight provided by the Sustainability Committee.
As a UK-listed public company, Raspberry Pi recognises sustainability as an integral part
ofits responsibility to all stakeholders. We are committed to maximising shareholder
valuewhile acknowledging the interconnectedness of their business with broader societal
and environmental concerns. This commitment is demonstrated through our proactive
assessment of climate‑related risks and opportunities, ensuring that sustainability
isconsidered in their business operations and decision making processes.
Risk management
Climate-related risk management is embedded within the wider Group risk management
process, details for which can be found on page 51.
Raspberry Pi tracks all risks to the business, including climate-related risks, in the Risk
Register, which is reviewed monthly with all stakeholders. Climate-related risks are flagged
to the Sustainability Committee when they are found, meaning climate risk is continuously
assessed internally and externally. Climate change is identified as a principal risk;
seepage51 for moredetail.
Raspberry Pi commits to having an external expert in the field to identify the risks facing the
Company every three years, in order to stay abreast of the risks posed by climate change
toongoingbusiness.
Climate-related risks and opportunities
Inherent risk score is between 0–25 and is calculated by assessing the likelihood (0–5)
andthe impact on the business (0–5); the final figure is the two scores multiplied.
1. Supply chain and manufacturing
disruptions:Increased frequency and
severity of extreme weather events disrupt
the supply chain for components and
manufacturing processes, leading to
operational delays and increased costs.

(10+ years)
Impact is assessed to be a 4, in line with the “loss of production
(loss of factory)” risk on the Raspberry Pi Ltd Risk Register.
Likelihood is assessed to be a 4. There is currently a 3% chance
offlood at the Sony manufacturing site, which is estimated to
increase over time (Natural Resources Wales, 2023; Natural
Resources Wales, 2024).
2. Distributional network disruptions: Increased
frequency and severity of extreme weather
events disrupt distribution networks, leading
to operational delays and increased costs.

(10+ years)
Impact is assessed to be a 2, in line with the “freight/distribution
risk on the Raspberry Pi Ltd Risk Register.
Likelihood is assessed to be a 4, as climate change is expected
toincrease the frequency and intensity of extreme weather
events, including extreme precipitation, extreme heat, droughts,
storms and wildfires (IPCC AR6, 2022). Previous instances of
disruption as a result of extreme weather events, as noted by
Raspberry Pi and discussed with the Chief Commercial Officer,
indicate that Raspberry Pi’s distribution networks are likely to be
affected in theinstance of an extreme weather event.

Policy/legal Moderate 9 Short
(1–5 years)
Impact is assessed to be a 3 under the risk scoring framework,
asthis risk may result in an investigation/minor disciplinary

Likelihood is also assessed to be a 3.
4. Carbon taxes: The introduction of carbon
pricing on raw materials and energy could
increase production costs.
Operations
and supply
chain
Policy/legal High 20 Medium
(5–10 years)
Impact is assessed to be a 4. Carbon pricing has remained
relatively low to date, but is expected to substantially increase
inline with government commitments to reduce emissions.
TheNetwork for Greening Financial Services (“NGFS”) estimates
that carbon prices could reach £122/tonne CO
2
e by 2030 and
£586/tonne CO
2
e by 2050, under an orderly transition scenario
that limits warming to 2°C.
Likelihood is assessed to be a 5, as carbon pricing policies
currently exist or are scheduled to exist in 61 countries.
5. Litigation risk from sustainability claims:
Riskoflitigation if Raspberry Pi’s current/
future sustainability/climate-related claims
(e.g. current energy efficiency claims) are
perceived as exaggerated or misleading
(i.e. greenwashing regulations).
Operations Reputation Moderate 6 Medium
(5–10 years)
Impact is assessed to be a 3 for this risk, assuming some
reputational damage in line with the risk scoring framework.
Likelihood is assessed to be a 2, as currently only a few
climate‑related claims have been made by Raspberry Pi,
specifically regarding energy efficiency of individual products.
6. Challenges in meeting future carbon targets:
Riskof not meeting any future carbon
targets orexpectations to decarbonise
asaresult of dependence on third-party
providers (i.e. Sony andcomponent
suppliers) or higher cost to meetthem.
Operations Reputation Moderately

(5–10 years)
Impact is assessed to be a 3 for this risk, assuming some
reputational damage. However, this risk could potentially have
asignificant financial impact if customers begin to opt for
lower‑carbon alternative products as a result.
Likelihood is assessed to be a 4, as Raspberry Pi does not currently
have a decarbonisation plan and is reliant on carbon‑intensive
industries that are lagging behind on their commitments.

Metrics and targets
We introduced new metrics in 2024 to formally track and report key environmental impacts. In addition to Scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions (see Streamlined Energy andCarbon Reporting
(“SECR”) below for data), webegan measuring carbon emissions during the manufacturing process which is fed into our Scope 3 calculations. We are not setting targets for these metrics
but will begin tracking them.
The two metrics will be:
product carbon – working to understand the carbon per computer and carbon cost; and
office carbon – working to understand the office emissions and how we can change it.

Figures based on energy consumption over all sites of 669,845 kWh (2024: 426,519 kWh);
this was a result of offering electric car charging to employees and increased base load
from new servers installed for Company activities.
Associated greenhouse gases have been calculated using the UK Government’s GHG
Conversion Factors for Company Reporting 2025. Estimates were used to calculate the
electricity usage in the Group’s offices, based on an average price per kWh of $0.46.
AllCompany buildings and operations are considered in these figures.
For Raspberry Pi Scope 1, we do not have any energy-generating assets that emit carbon
and so report our gas use for the properties we operate. Wemeasure Scope 2 emissions
from the energy bills received in respect of the Group’s properties’ electricity consumption.
We divide the measurement of Scope 3 emissions into two categories: carbon emissions
resulting from products that we make to sell; and other carbon emissions generated
through our business activities. These are listed as one figure in the SECR reporting but
areimportant to consider in how we calculate.
In order to assess the environmental impact of our products, we worked with our partner
Inhabit to conduct a comprehensive study, following the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and
ISO14044:2006 standards. Inhabit used industry-leading tools together with the
ecoinventdatabase to calculate the carbon footprint of products throughout their lifecycle.
Thisinvolved carrying out a detailed analysis of a set of individual, representative products
across our range, then applying the results to other similar products. In 2025 we also used
the Architectural Carbon Modelling (“ACT”) Tool to assess the carbon emissions from
silicon devices on some of our products; we will expand this work to more products in
thecoming years.
Scope 3 for products was calculated to be 60,169 tCO
2
e. This is in line with the higher
volume of units sold in 2025.
In order to calculate the Scope 3 emissions generated through our business activities,
allnon‑product-related accounting journals were reviewed and assigned to a category.
Eachcategory was allocated an average emission value per US Dollar spent as per the
ecoinvent database. This allowed us to calculate a carbon emission figure per US Dollar
ofexpenditure. This was calculated to be 2,209 tCO

Scope1and 2 emissions, totalling 33t in the year ended 31 December 2025; this does
notcover electricity used as this is from a 100% renewable energy tariff. These carbon
credits will befully vested, in the sense that the carbon will be completely sequestered by
31March 2045. UNDO Carbon has been selected as a high-quality, scientifically verified,
andscalable solution for long-term carbon sequestration, using its enhanced rock
weathering technology.

Our risk management process
Raspberry Pi’s risk management approach has continued to evolve with the structure of the business.
Itreflects the small size of the business’ operations and the close proximity of Senior Management to
operations together with their deep technology experience.
Risks can be identified at any time by any individual within the Group. Theseniority of our engineers relative to the industry, their long tenure and our open and inclusive approach tothe
management of operations ensure that risks are promptly reported and managed.
The Board regularly reviews the risks identified and the mitigations undertaken and the Audit and Risk Committee oversees how risks are managed. The internal audit team provides
independent assurance to the Audit and Risk Committee and the Board.

Our risk management process continued
The Board discusses and reviews the Group’s principal risks semi-annually with updates
and changes provided at each meeting; this is then reflected inthe Group’s ongoing plans
and strategy. The Board takes a balanced and informed view ofriskwhile recognising the
flexibility required to operate successfully in thismarket.
The Audit and Risk Committee oversees, reviews and monitors the Group’s procedures for
reviewing the effectiveness of the Group’s procedures for the identification, assessment,
management and reporting of risk. For more details on the Audit and Risk Committee’s
responsibilities forrisk management, please refer to the Terms of Reference.
Risk oversight
Risk owners continually review their own risks and inform the CTO (Hardware) of any
changes. The risk owner is responsible for assessing the status of their assigned risks by
describing their risk and the mitigations already in place, as well as assessing likelihood and
impact, including any financial impact. This creates a risk score, determining an identified
risk’s potential severity. If required, the risk owner is responsible for ensuring further
mitigating actions are taken to reduce the risk and create a target risk score.
Risk identification and monitoring
A named member of the Senior Management Team (currently the CTO (Hardware))
maintains the Risk Register. They are responsible for maintaining it as a live document,
ensuring risk owners capture all required information, ensuring risk owners review their
assigned risks monthly, and ensuring reviews and reporting processes are followed.
Emerging risks
Our risk management approach includes the identification and monitoring of emerging
risks. Although these risks evolve and have uncertain impacts, they are reviewed alongside
our principal risks.
The pace of AI innovation and development
We continue to see rapid change and excitement in the development of artificial
intelligence. The rapid change may cause changes in the demand for our products and
require the development of new products, the requirements for which may then change
again. The excitement may lead to speculative bubbles; should they burst, market
participants may be destabilised or investors may lose confidence in all businesses in the
technology sector. The pace of AI innovation is impacting other areas of the business,
mainly due to the increasing cost of memory, which is being driven by memory vendors
diverting manufacturing capacity to meet the surge in AI data centre investment.
Principal risks and uncertainties continued
42 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
Principal risks
As part of our regular risk review process, the Board and management have identified the
following principal risks:
Brand and reputation
Risk
description
Our brand’s reputation for robustness, quality and innovative design,
extensively supported through software, documentation and a vibrant
community of users, is an essential asset of the business. The brand’s
reputation for engineering excellence among both industrial and
enthusiast engineers is a core driver of sales and isvaluable in the
recruitment of staff and suppliers.
Risk impact Damage to that reputation or the loss of support from our community may
adversely impact sales and make the recruitment of staff more difficult.
Movement
and outlook
Our reputation for fair pricing and continued availability could be impacted
by the current turmoil in DRAM markets (see supply chain risk).
Products may be diverted through diffuse third-party supply chains outside
of our control and ultimately used illicitly in military equipment in
embargoed conflict areas, impacting our reputation.
Increased engagement with defence and defence-adjacent markets, while
lawful and conducted responsibly, carries a moderate brand risk.
Participation in defence markets may be perceived by some stakeholders
as inconsistent with the Company’s founding values in education, and
media narratives around defence technology can be polarising.
Mitigation/
management
actions
Management and the Board regularly discuss customer perception
andconsider the effect on customers in their decisions.
Management and engineering team members frequently engage
withcustomers to understand their expectations and many Company
members are themselves long-standing users of theproducts. Through
new products we seek to engage enthusiasts and we work to ensure
through messaging and social media that customers appreciate the
causes of shortages or other changes.
Diversion of our products can occur via complex chains of onward sale
injurisdictions where visibility and control is limited. We comply with all
applicable UK, EU and international sanctions regimes and operate within
policies and controls designed to track and prevent such diversion.
We ensure that any defence engagement is responsible dual-use
participation aligned with national security and lawful, ethical technology
stewardship consistent with the Sanctions & Export Controls Policy
andGlobal Trading & Sanctions Principles. Prohibited end-uses remain
absolute. The Company follows the British Government and NATO policy
to determine entities and countries with which it can do business.

Risk
description
Attracting and retaining skilled individuals.
Risk impact The business relies on a small group of senior managers who have
extensive experience and are hard to replace.
We continue to face competition for specialist engineers, without whom
we may limit our ability to develop new products.
Movement
and outlook
The Group has continued to be an attractive employer and the employee
share schemes introduced since listing have further enhanced this position.
This enables the Group to recruit in a competitive market for engineers
and has to date been successful at retaining key members of staff.
The availability of certain skills in engineering is likely to remainconstrained.
Mitigation/
management
actions
The Board has a succession plan to ensure the continuity of senior managers.
The Group maintains competitive compensation to reduce turnover and
attract top talent. As a public company we can provide share-based rewards
and incentives to motivate our employees and encourage staff retention.
We create a rewarding work environment, and our flat work structure
provides significant opportunities for personal development and
intellectual stimulation.
Link to
strategy
More units: Development of new products and the maintenance of the
software running on them are key to the growth of the Group.
Grow unit gross profit: The engineering team is needed to develop new
components for our SBCs and compute modules.
Risk velocity The impact of the risk is expected over the medium term if new product
developments were to be delayed.
Sales channels
Risk
description
Our sales channels may not have the capacity or resources to meet our
growth plans. Alternatively, our products may not meet their margin
demands making our products unattractive to them.
In addition, the Group relies on its sole licensee to distribute a portion of
itsproducts, and any unplanned disruption to the Group’s licensing model
could harm its sales.
The majority of our products are exported across the globe. Should there
be significant increases in tariffs on our products in key markets we may
see reductions in sales and delays to customer purchases due to the
uncertainty of what and where duties may be applied.
Risk impact The health of our channel partners is a key part of our global operations
and source of growth.
We often operate through intermediaries (licensee/reseller/distributor)
andthis has allowed us to grow without large upfront investment.
Movement
and outlook
We have continued to develop our reseller network and we have seen
pleasing growth in the operations of our licensee and distributor partners.
Mitigation/
management
actions
Through regular engagement with our reseller and distribution partners,
we assess their capacity and the support they need.
We look for new partners in underdeveloped or new markets and
geographies and engage directly with large OEM customers to ensure
thattheir needs can be met.
We continue to explore routes to market that will enable supply to end
customers while not straining the capacity of local resellers.
We employ specialist advisers on tariffs and import duties.
Link to
strategy
Grow unit sales: To continue to sell more units worldwide we need local
partners to promote and stock our products and supportcustomers.
Risk velocity Channel capacity constraints could impact longer-term growth over
aperiod of years.

Supply chain
Risk
description
The supply of products is complex with the whole industry dependent on
aweb of key component suppliers across the globe. For key component
manufacturing there are significant barriers to entry and those suppliers
may exploit opportunities that arise from dominant market positions.
We support our products for typically in excess of ten years, recognising that
when a Raspberry Pi is built into a customer’s product or operations we have
made a commitment to our customer and they have placed their trust in us.
Unreliable or expensive supply risks our ability to meet this promise.
For some components, particularly memory which is a significant part
ofour product cost, the prices are very volatile.
The Group relies on a single third-party facility owned by Sony to
manufacture substantially all of its products, and its success is in part
dependent on Sony’s current commitment to manufacturing itsproducts.
Risk impact Interruption to the supply of a single component can prevent production
ofour products leading to a loss of sales and substantial harm to our
reputation and customer proposition.
Significant differences in product demand between forecast and actual
could harm the Group’s business, finances and growth prospects either
because of insufficient inventory for actual demand leading to lost sales,
or excess inventory, including that delivered under long-term supply
agreements, which would need funding and may become obsolete.
Memory prices may impact demand, margin or brand reputation.
The loss of our manufacturing facility at Sony may stop our supply
ofproducts for sale.
Movement
and outlook
In the past few months the global supply of memory has become severely
constrained due to the demand for high-bandwidth memory from AI data
centres. The constrained supply is impacting the market price of memory.
Market prices of memory, one of our key components, have increased
rapidly over the last six months and recently some major suppliers have
indicated limitations in supply at high densities.
Visibility in relation to prices and supply beyond H1 2026 is limited.
Mitigation/
management
actions
We have put in place long-term supply agreements with key suppliers
inrespect of certain components.
To further mitigate supply and memory price volatility, we have the flexibility
to increase prices whilst maintaining our value proposition. We have also
taken steps to qualify additional suppliers and develop product variants
with reduced memory capacity.
We have developed business continuity plans with Sony and, in addition,
have an amount of insurance cover.
Link to
strategy
Grow unit gross profit: We seek to supply our products at low cost and
therefore closely control our component costs.
Grow gross profit participation: Our long-term support commitment is
coreto our long-term strategy to sell more products to industrial and
embedded customers.
Risk velocity Market prices for memory have increased rapidly over the last six months;
in some cases they have tripled, and recently some major suppliers have
indicated limitations in supply at high densities.

Growth management
Risk
description
The Group’s business plan and its shareholders’ expectation are for
significant growth in new market sectors and new geographies.
Scaling the operations to achieve this growth will be challenging and may
give rise to unexpected difficulties or costs.
We are open to taking risks in the development of new markets for our
existing products or for products and services that extend our aim to be
the compute platform of choice. The Edge AI and IoT markets are growing
rapidly and we need to move quickly to sustain our position as a leader in
the supply of hardware to these sectors. There is a significant risk from
doing nothing.
Risk impact The Group may incur additional costs or be unable to exploit all its growth
opportunities and competitors may become established with a dominant
presence. Expansion into new markets may incur unforeseen costs or losses.
If the management team is overloaded, growth opportunities may not be
fully exploited and mistakes may be made. If the Group grows rapidly,
operational processes and controls may not be ableto scale efficiently.
Wemay therefore incur extra costs or suffer a weakening of controls with
the possibility of losses as aconsequence.
Failure to achieve the growth expectations may harm the Group’s share
price and impact the rewards it can offer staff or its access tocapital.
Movement
and outlook
The programme of new market identification has recently accelerated while
the expansion of new geographies and resellers has remained steady.
New management heads have been added to meet the growth but further
costs will not be incurred until the opportunity is clear.
Mitigation/
management
actions
The Board regularly reviews the organisation’s strengths and areas
fordevelopment. Management is constantly reviewing sales channels
andtherisks and opportunities that may arise.
Link to
strategy
Grow unit sales: Unit growth is central to the Group’s strategy.
Risk velocity The effect of changes in risk and the crystallisation of its impact would
beexpected over a period of years.
Markets and economic environment
Risk
description
A global economic downturn could significantly affect the Group’s
operations due to reduced demand for SBC units and increased inventory.
Long-term volume commitments and other contractual agreements
reduce our ability to balance product supply and demand.
Risk impact A drop in demand could lead to lower sales and profits.
Inaccurate demand forecasting due to changing economic circumstances
or lower sales expectations could harm the Group’s business, finances and
growth prospects because of insufficient inventory for actual demand or
excess inventory, including that delivered under long-term supply agreements,
inventory obsolescence charges and reductions in the Group’s cash flow.
New products that have been developed may not have sufficient demand
to justify their investment.
Movement
and outlook
During 2025 demand for our products improved as the supply disruption of
2024 abated. In the last quarter of 2025, against a background of improving
demand, uncertainty has arisen as a result of the significant changes in
memory component costs. To date, we have not seen the demand of our
products being adversely affected by recent price increases.
Mitigation/
management
actions
The sales of the Group are diversified across geographies and the business
sectors we sell to. The sales and business development team works closely
with the supply chain team to manage the effects of changing demand.
The Group works with its contract manufacturer to adjust production
andwith its resellers, OEM customers and distributors to understand
andstimulate demand.
The Group undertakes regular forecasting and strategic planning to assess
theimpact of demand fluctuations and to consider responses. Inventory and
purchase commitments are regularly reviewed as part of theforecastingprocess.
Link to
strategy
Grow unit sales: Unit growth is a key strategic aim.
Risk velocity As our model is to sell from stock we normally have a small orderbook
and there is limited visibility of future demand beyond afew months.

Competition/competitors
Risk
description
Developing innovative and disruptive products is a core strategic aim
ofthe business. Their development may require significant expenditure
and run for many years.
Projects are often complex and challenging and may take longer orcost
more than was expected.
Risk impact New competitors or the actions of existing competitors could impact the
business resulting in reduced sales and lower margins. An existing or new
competitor could create a product with better specifications at a lower
price, making it hard for us to compete.
Movement
and outlook
The level of competition has remained steady in the past year andwe have
not seen significantly cheaper products with equalspecification.
There is evidence in the last quarter of increased demand for our products
from customers who had previously developed their own products or
purchased from our competitors due to the difficulty in sourcing
components as described in the supply chain risk.
Mitigation/
management
actions
The Group counters this by focusing on innovation and cost efficiency,
reviewing competitors’ products, and improving the cost structure via
technical and manufacturing innovation.
We continue to take steps to prevent the cloning of our products, making
our software and user community a key differentiator of ourproducts.
The Group continues to pursue modest margin aspirations to prevent
acompetitor from gaining access through a low-cost offer.
Link to
strategy
Grow unit sales.
Risk velocity New products take time to develop but can be released at short notice.
With build in cycles of over one year, material change could take a year
tohave a significant impact.
Intellectual property and designs
Risk
description
The Group’s intellectual property rights may prove difficult to enforce
ifothers try to use our designs and particularly our rich software and
support ecosystem to benefit their products.
A competitor, third party or individual asserts their IP rights against
Raspberry Pi’s, leading to litigation.
Risk impact If others exploit our intellectual property to promote their products we
maysuffer lower sales or reduced margins.
If a third party enters into litigation to assert the IP rights, the Group
suffers financial loss from any settlement and the diversion of significant
management time in the defence of our position.
Movement
and outlook
The risk remains stable at the moment.
Mitigation/
management
actions
The General Counsel and CEO regularly review the extent and
effectiveness of legal, contractual and technical protections. We have
insurance for legal representation to address IP infringement claims
against us or in our defence.
The designs of our most recent products are further protected by the use
of our own silicon in those products.
Link to
strategy
Grow unit sales and unit gross profit: The exclusive use of our designs aids
unit sales and the maintenance and growth of the unit profit of those products.

Product development projects
Risk
description
Developing innovative and disruptive products is a core strategic aim
ofthe business. Their development may require significant expenditure
and run for many years.
Projects are often complex and challenging and may take longer or cost
more than was expected and may in the worst case fail. Products are
developed and costs incurred in the expectation of demand for theproduct; if
sufficient demand does not arise, the asset representing the development
cost and inventory may need tobe impaired and written down.
Failing to innovate or adapt to new trends may lead to lost market share
and reduced profits.
If the Group’s products contain significant defects, it could incur
significant expenses to remediate such defects, its reputation could be
damaged, and it could lose market share.
Risk impact The delay or failure of a project to develop a new product may lead to
substantial additional costs. By missing an opportunity it may harm the growth
of the business or give a competitor the chance to become established.
If sufficient demand does not arise the asset representing the development
cost and the inventory may need to be impaired and an expense incurred.
The launch of a flawed product may lead to significant rectification costs
and damage to the Group’s reputation.
Movement
and outlook
Our experience of delivering complex projects has improved continuously
through the growth of the Company. At the same timethe size, complexity
and cost of projects have been increasing, particularly in respect of
semiconductor development.
Mitigation/
management
actions
Our engineering team and management have extensive experience
ofdesigning our products and we use industry-leading tools and partners
in their development.
We seek to identify industry trends and develop responses through
engagement with customers, particularly in the enthusiast sector, and
regular discussion with key technology suppliers and industry experts.

description
As the business grows, robust control frameworks need to develop with
itto ensure that assets are safeguarded and risks arising from business
activities are understood and limited to appropriate levels.
As a listed company, the requirements of the controls over financial reporting
increase as does the need for more timely and accurate financial data.
We supply our products to many jurisdictions and are required to comply
with international and local regulatory requirements.
Risk impact A loss of control in key areas of financial control could lead to losses
andan inability to report accurately.
If we do not comply with regulatory requirements we may be subject
tofines and penalties.
The functioning of controls and the effectiveness of our control
environments are key to the successful mitigations we have described
inthe Group’s principal risks.
Movement
and outlook
The control environment has improved as a result of the work undertaken
during and after listing. The establishment of an internal audit function has
further strengthened the focus on the control environment.
Mitigation/
management
action
We continue to add additional resources in key areas and use external
advisers where relevant.
We continually review operational and financial controls. We regularly test
these controls and the Audit and Risk Committee reviews the outcome of
the testing and the progress against plans to enhance the controls and
control environment.
An internal audit function has been established and will undertake two
tothree audits a year.
Link to
strategy
A robust control framework supports growth and allows the business to
scale without hitting barriers and supports access to capital and debt markets
that are required for growth and for colleague remuneration and retention.
Risk velocity Changes can arise within six months.

In accordance with the UKCorporate
Governance Code, the Board has assessed
the viability and medium-term prospects
ofthe Group over the period to December
2028, taking into account the Group’s
current position, strategy, market outlook
and principal risks.
Each year, the Board undertakes a robust
review of the Group’s strategic plan for
theforthcoming three-year period and
challenges the Senior Management Team
on the risks associated with the plan.
Thisisencapsulated in the three-year
periodbusiness plan prepared annually
andreviewed by the Board and aligns
withthe business cycle including product
development and order intake trends.
Theplan reflects the Group’s diverse
customer base across multiple sectors,
including industrial IoT, education and
embedded computing, with a mix of
short‑term sales and longer-term contracts.
The Board is required to formally assess
thatthe Group has adequate resources
tocontinue in operational existence for
theforeseeable future and as such can
continue to adopt the going concern basis
of accounting. As set out in Note 2 of
theconsolidated financial statements,
theDirectors have assessed this to be for
the period to 30 April 2027.
Based on this assessment, the Board
hasconcluded the Group can operate
withinitscommitted facilities and cash
resources for the foreseeable future
andaccordingly has adopted the going
concern basis inpreparing the consolidated
financial statements.
The Board is further required to assess
whether ithas a reasonable expectation that
the Group will continue in operation and
meet itslonger-term liabilities as they fall
due. Tosupport this, the Board has assessed
theGroup’s current financial position, its
strategic direction and the external market
environment. The Group’s existing primary
facility agreements extend to 4 March 2029,
therefore covering the three-year outlook
period of the business plan.
Reasonable worst case scenario
The Board’s assessment includes detailed
financial modelling over the three-year
period, incorporating sensitivity analysis
and stress testing under a range of
scenarios. This includes a “severe but
plausible downside” scenario, with a 50%
to75% reduction in higher density (8GB to
16GB) LPDDR4 SBC and compute module
products with no mitigations or cost
reductions other than executive variable
pay. Evenassuming limited mitigating
actions the Group can demonstrate
significant liquidity headroom and
compliance with covenants.
Consideration of principal risks
anduncertainties
Our viability assessment aims to provide
aclear understanding of the principal risks
and uncertainties that could impact the
Company’s performance, solvency and
liquidity. In order to assess our resilience
tothe principal risks and uncertainties
outlined on page 43 we have modelled a
range of scenarios explicitly linked to these.
Careful thought has been given to the
assumptions and judgements factored into
each threatscenario enabling stakeholders
tounderstand the potential challenges to
ourbusiness model and our robustness
toabsorb such headwinds as follows:
Brand risks: Serving both enthusiast
andeducation (“E&E”) and industrial and
embedded (“I&E”) markets risks brand
confusion due to the same products
supplying different markets.
Senior Management Team: Growth may
strain leadership capacity, slowing
investments and progress.
Semiconductor supply chain constraints:
Reliance on TSMC for production and
Broadcom for key components poses
risks from delays or terminations, though
inventory levels mitigate the impact.
Volume commitments: A long-term deal
with Broadcom (processor chips) risks
funding challenges ifsales drop. Lower
demand versus contracted supply has
been modelled.
Memory supply: The current shortage and
rapidly rising DRAM costs may put
pressure on sales and profit margins.
Having modelled the impact of the principal
risks arising, the Board is confident in
thebusiness’ ability to remain a viable
goingconcern.
Reverse stress testing
A reverse stress test was conducted to
model the impact of a decline in forecasted
unit demand, which would require the
Groupto secure additional financing
beyondthe existing facilities.
The analysis showed an 82% reduction in
forecasted unit sales over the going concern
period whether driven by a decrease in
demand, supply chain challenges, or a
combination of both – would trigger this
needfor additional financing.
However, this scenario was deemed highly
unlikely, further reinforcing the Group’s
financial viability.
Liquidity and cash flow forecasts
On 5 March 2025, the Groups Revolving Credit
Facility (“RCF”) was extended, increasing
available funds to $80.0 million (2024:
$40.0million) and extending the term to
4March 2029 (2024: 24 April 2027), providing
additional liquidity to support operations.
We have also considered the timing of trade
payables and trade receivables including
credit terms offered by suppliers and the
impact on working capital requirements to
ensure that no further financing would be
required should current terms change.
The Board’s cash flow forecasts and
projections confirm the Group can operate
within its cash and committed facilities for
the foreseeable future. Available liquidity,
including both cash and committed facilities,
has been considered in this assessment.
Conclusion
Based on this assessment, the Board
confirms that it has a reasonable expectation
that the Group will be able to continue in
operation and meet its liabilities as they fall
due over the period to December2028.
This Strategic Report has been approved by
the Board and is signed on its behalf by:

Statement of Directors’ responsibilities
On behalf of the Board, I am delighted to introduce
ourCorporate Governance Report for the year ended
31December 2025.
Raspberry Pi is committed to promoting high standards
of corporate governance that support the long-term
sustainable success of the business. Following our
successful IPO in June 2024 and listing on the London
Stock Exchange, our commitment to governance is
more important than ever as we build momentum
onour growth strategy.
This report outlines how we have applied the
principles and provisions of the 2024 UK Corporate
Governance Code for listed companies.
Key activities for 2025 have been:
1 Developed our corporate governance framework to meet the requirements of the 2024
UK Corporate Governance Code and preparation for the implementation of the revised
Provision 29.
2 Developed and implemented Raspberry Pi’s strategy flowing from specific strategy
review discussions in Q2 2025 with the Board and key senior executives.
3 Strengthened our internal controls and processes appropriate to a listed group.
Thisincluded the creation of an internal audit function. See the Audit and Risk
Committee Report on page 62 for further details.
4 Reviewed employee policies and culture. Approved new employee policies including
anew childcare policy which provides financial support to all employees with
youngchildren.
5 Instigated the search for a new CFO to succeed Richard Boult using a global external
search consultancy.
6 Reviewed the membership and Terms of Reference of each of the four Committees
the Auditand Risk Committee, the Nomination Committee, the Remuneration
Committee and the Disclosure Committee. Each Committee has appointed its
membersand a Chair in line with the recommendations of the UK Corporate
Governance Code and established its Terms of Reference.
7 Reviewed the remit and membership of the Sustainability Committee
(asubcommittee oftheBoard).
8 Reviewed and revised the code of securities dealings to clarify the arrangements for
Closely Associated Persons (“CAPs”) of PDMRs, which has been communicated to all
employees (including those Directors andemployees designated as PDMRs) toaid
compliance with the Market AbuseRegulation.
9 Implemented the Relationship Agreements and a new way of working with the
Raspberry Pi Foundation and Raspberry Mid Co Limited and separately with the Ezrah
Charitable Trust. The aim of these changes is toensure that the Group is able to carry
out its business independently and that all transactions between the Group and
Controlling Shareholders are atarm’s length and on anormal commercial basis, as has
been confirmed in Controlling Shareholder(s) inNote 30.
10 Reassessed our principal risks and uncertainties. The Board reviewed theprincipal
risks and considered thesebroadly consistent with those identified inthe 2024 Annual
Report and 2025 InterimReport.
11 Agreed the financial and non-financial key performance indicators (“KPIs”) by which
the Board assessed performance.
12 Granted stock options under the discretionary Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”)
inH1 2025.
Looking ahead, the Board will focus on retention and succession/talent management planning
particularly for the Senior Management Team (“SMT”) and those reporting into the SMT to
prepare the Group for further growth while maintaining and promoting the Group’s unique
entrepreneurial culture and values as the business scales.

Culture and responsibility
The Board recognises that the tone and culture it sets impact all aspects of the Group,
thevalue our stakeholders place onthe Group and our brand equity.
The Group boasts an outstanding management team with over 150 years of collective
experience. This has created an exceptional culture recognised for innovation, creativity
andautonomy, without unnecessary constraints from corporate policies and structures.
Management fosters an environment where employees feel valued and entrepreneurial
mindsets are rewarded. There is a minimal hierarchy, and diverse thoughts and viewpoints
are encouraged. Our employee retention is a testament to the Group’s culture and ethos.
We strive to hire employees and work with partners who have strong ethical standards.
Wehave up to date policies, including anti‑corruption and anti-bribery policies, andprovide
ongoing training to support our employees in high standards of business conduct. We are
avalues-led organisation and aspire to treat one another, and all our stakeholders, with
respect and dignity. Allmembers of the Board have regular opportunities to engage directly
with employees and partners in formal and informal forums. They make frequent visitsto
our head office for formal internal presentations and have the opportunity to attend team
lunches in Cambridge, allowing them to assess the Group culture.
The Board believes its current approach is sufficient for its members to have a good
understanding of the Group culture and workforce views, and that this approach addresses
the requirement to engage with employees under Provision 5 of the Code. The Board
recognises that maintaining and fostering this culture and these values is critical to the
Company’s continued success and that its current approach may face challenges as the
business scales. Therefore,the Board will continue to reviewits engagement mechanisms.
Whistleblowing policy
The Company’s whistleblowing policy exists to provide employees a mechanism whereby
they may, in confidence, raise concerns relating to improprieties carried out by Directors,
colleagues or the Group as a whole. The policy applies to all employees, who, in addition
toreceiving training on our Code of Ethics and the whistleblowing policy, are required
toconfirm they have read and understood the Group’s expectations concerning ethical
behaviour and the procedure by which they can raise an anonymous concern.
Shareholder engagement
Shareholder engagement is a matter reserved for the Board. The Board is committed to
effective engagement withandencouraging participation from shareholders and stakeholders
onan ongoing basis. TheBoard seeks to have aclear understanding of the views of shareholders
and the Group’s other key stakeholders and considers them in Board discussions.
Detailsofthe shareholder engagement activities are set out on pages22and 23.
Since the IPO in June 2024, the Board has embedded anongoing investor relations
programme tofoster open and active dialogue with the Company’s shareholders.
Appointment and election
All members of the Board stood for re‑election at the AGM in June 2025 and were all
successfully reappointed.
There have been no changes to the composition of the Board during the year to31December
2025. Due to other commitments, Christopher Mairs stepped down from the Remuneration
Committee and was replaced by Martin Hellawell in November 2025.
The Company previously engaged external law firm Linklaters to advise on the
independence ofthe Non-Executive Directors. All but oneNon-Executive Director is
determined bythe Board to be independent in character and judgement.
Board succession and diversity
Board succession planning is focused onensuring the right mix of skills and experience on
the Board. All new appointments are based on merit, keeping inmind that we need a Board
which is diverse and inclusive in relation to skills, experience, gender, background, personal
strengths, tenure and relevant experience. 25% of the Board is female. This is a factor the
Board will consider when making future appointment decisions. More information can be
found inthe Nomination Committee Report on page 66.
Keeping informed
All Board members receive agendas and papers distributed one week ahead of scheduled
Board meetings. These include reports from the Executive Directors, other members of the
Senior Management and external advisers. Reports from the Group Company Secretary
update the Board on governance-related matters.
The Non-Executive Directors are in regular and direct contact with the Executive Directors
and other Senior Management outside of Board meetings, and can call uponthem for
additional information they may require ahead of formal meetings.
All Directors have access to independent professional advice, at the Company’s expense,
where they judge it necessary to discharge their responsibilities as Directors.

60 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
Induction
On joining the Board, all new Board members willbe provided with a tailored induction
programme, based on their experience, background and understanding of the Company’s
operations and structure.
The induction programme will include:
background information;
formal and informal meetings with operational directors, senior managers and the Chairs
of each of the Board and its Committees;
briefings with the Company Secretary, corporate brokers and external lawyers on the
duties of a public company director;
site visits; and
access to historical governance documents and Board/Committee papers.
The induction process is intended to give new Directors asoundintroduction into the
Group’s activities,operations, strategy, culture andgovernance structure.
Board performance review
An internal Board performance review takes place annually and is led by the Chair. In 2025,
theevaluation process took the form of an internal survey distributed to the members ofthe
Board, with findings discussed at the Board and Nomination Committee meetings held in
November 2025.
The evaluation concluded that the Board had implemented the actions flowing from the
2024 Board performance review and is effective in discharging its duties, and that the Board
meetings are effective. Collectively, the Board feels that all members make valuable
contributions insideand outside of Board meetings, provide diverse views and respect each
other’s contributions.
The evaluation of the Chair concluded thatheperforms well in his role, leads the Board
effectively, ensures Board members work well together, brings clarity to complex and
diverging issues, and makes a clear andpositive impact for management andstakeholders.
The evaluation of the Executive Directors concluded that they have adapted well to being
leaders of a publicly listed company. The Board recognises the importance of continuing
training, development, knowledge and support and mentorship.
The evaluation also resulted in several recommendations, which are summarised in the
table opposite.
In addition to the internal evaluation, the Board intends to run an independent evaluation
with the support of external advisers every three years, with the next one due in 2027.
Recommendation from
FY2025Boardevaluation Actions for FY 2026
Review the structure and
content of CEO reports
Review content to ensure there is balance between
technological and other Company matters and to ensure
content understandable for all Directors, regardless of
theirbackgrounds.
Review the frequency of
Board meetings
Review scheduled Board meetings to remove the February
meeting and include a virtual meeting each July to close the
gap between June and September Board meetings.
Build stronger
relationships and
cohesion within the Board
Facilitate relationship building and opportunities for
interaction between Board members outside of meetings,
e.g. dinners or other social events.
Encourage attendance at
key stakeholder events
such as the Partner
(reseller) Conference
Notify the Board of the dates, timings and structure of the
Annual Partner Conference well in advance to ensure Non-
Executive Directors can attend.
Continue to evolve the
approach to strategic risk
and opportunities in
Board meetings
Increase time allocated to reviewing and evaluating key
strategic risks and opportunities, as well as risk appetite, in
Board meetings and reduce time spent on minor risks.
Develop a framework to assist with reviewing and
monitoring strategic risks at Board meetings.
Increase strategic
content of Board
meetings
Review a list of strategic topics to prioritise and agree where
the Board needs greater awareness and where it can add
most value to the Senior Management Team.
Conflicts of interest and external appointments
There are no actual or potential conflicts of interest between any duties owed to the Company by the Directors
and members of Senior Management and their private interests and/or other duties, and no arrangements or
understandings with the Principal Shareholder, any other major shareholders, customers, suppliers or others
pursuant to which any Director or member of Senior Management was conflicted. The Board reviews any new
potential conflicts of interest at each Board meeting and all interests and potential conflicts annually; such
reviews are carried out in accordance with the Code, the Companies Act 2006, and, in respect of the Foundation
nominated Director, the Relationship Agreement.
During the year, the Board approved the appointment of Sherry Coutu CBE to the board of Phoenix Group
Holdings plc as chair of its remuneration committee with effect from 1 May 2025. After confirming that there
were no conflicts of interest and considering the likely time commitments required to fulfil this role, the Board
was satisfied that this appointment would not inhibit Sherry’s ability to continue effectively.

“We are committed to
maintaining the highest
standards of corporate
governance, ensuring

structure remains

Committee members
As at the date of this report, the Committee
comprises three Independent
Non-Executive Directors:
Rachel Izzard (Chair);
David Gammon; and
Sherry Coutu CBE.
Overview
As Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee,
Iam pleased to present the Committee’s
report for the year ended 31 December
2025. This report covers the Committee’s
responsibilities and how it has discharged
them over the year.
This was Raspberry Pi’s first full year as a
public company following the successful
listing on the Main Market in June 2024.
The business have continued to make good
progress in strengthening the finance team
and embedding the processes, systems,
controls and culture needed for a listed
company with significant scale expectations,
but without losing their unique identity.
Thepositive conclusions of the FRC review
of the 2024 Annual Report as well as the
audit quality review of Grant Thornton’s work
were pleasing evidence of the achievements
in this journey. The appointment of an
internal audit function is just one further
example of the progress being made. Further
details in respect of the reviews and internal
audit are provided later on in this report.
The Committee continues to support the
team in this progress as well as providing it
with appropriate challenge in its accounting
judgements, and in the sufficiency of
controls and reporting in respect of the
business and financial risks to which it
isexposed.
I would like to thank the Raspberry Pi team
and all Committee members for their
valuable contributions which support the
work of the Committee.
Responsibilities
The Committee has been established
bytheBoard primarily for the purpose
ofoverseeing the accounting, financial
reporting, internal control and risk
management processes of the Company
and the external audit of the Group’s
financial statements. As a Committee, we
are responsible for assisting the Board’s
oversight of the quality and integrity of the
Company’s external financial reporting and
statements, and the Company’s accounting
policies and practices, and we work to create
a culture – both within the Committee’s work
and Raspberry Pi morebroadly – which
recognises the work of, and encourages
challenge by, the external auditor.
The Audit and Risk Committee of Raspberry
Pi Holdings plc was formally established by
the Board following completion of the listing
process in 2024.
The responsibilities of the Committee
areto:
ensure compliance with relevant financial
reporting standards;
maintain effective internal controls and
risk management processes;
facilitate transparent communication
withthe external auditor; and
oversee the integrity of financial
statements and disclosures.
Audit and Risk Committee
meetings and activities
The Committee held five scheduled
meetings in the year and in those meetings
it reviewed key risks, internal control
processes, accounting matters and the
financial statements and disclosures
included in the Group’s interim financial
statements and full-year accounts.
TheCommittee Chair met regularly with the
Chief Financial Officer and Company
Secretary, and separately with the external
audit partner to discuss their reports and
any other relevant issues.
As Committee Chair, I am available to
engage with any shareholders who would
like to discuss the work of the Committee,
including the scope or effectiveness of the
external audit. There have been no requests
from shareholders in 2025 for any specific
matters to be covered in the audit. I look
forward to taking any shareholder questions
at our forthcoming AGM in May 2026.
As part of its ongoing cycle of work in
accordance with its Terms of Reference the
Committee considers reports on
compliance activities as well as fraud and
whistleblowing reports. We also monitor the
financial reporting and risk management
procedures, discuss the Group’s control
environment, review the work undertaken
bythe external auditor and consider any
significant legal claims and regulatory
issues in the context of their impact on
financial reporting, each on a regular basis.
Other prominent themes in the Committee’s
work throughout 2025 included:
continued attention to the application of
Raspberry Pi’s accounting policies, key
judgements and key areas of estimation
as described in the financial statements;
development and implementation of
controls and processes appropriate to a
listed group. This included the creation of
an internal audit function;

Audit and Risk Committee
meetings and activities continued
review of the Group’s approach to
compliance across products and with
legal and regulatory requirements and the
resourcing of these functions;
focus on emerging developments in the
regulatory landscape, including new or
anticipated requirements relating to fraud
prevention and internal assurance and
control frameworks, in particular
Provision 29; and
consideration of the Group’s financial risk
management in respect of hedging of
relevant financial exposures and the Group’s
management of liquidity in respect of the
management of theserisks.
The Committee also receives technical updates,
including on matters such as accounting
standards and the audit and governance
landscape, and members are able to request
specific or personal training as appropriate.
A crucial part of the Committee’s work is
overseeing the external auditor, Grant
Thornton, which was appointed as
externalauditor for the year-end audit.
TheCommittee has reviewed the
effectiveness and independence of
GrantThornton and recommends its
reappointment at the Company’s 2026 AGM.
Additional meeting attendees
The Chair, Chief Executive Officer, Chief
Financial Officer, Head of Finance, Group
Financial Controller, General Counsel and
Group’s auditor are invited to attend all
meetings. The Group’s Internal auditor
wasinvited to attend from the date of their
appointment. Other executives and senior
managers from the finance function and
across the business also attend meetings
during the year, as invitees of the Committee
or to discuss particular itemsofbusiness.
This direct contact with key leadership
augments the Committee’s understanding of
the issues facing the business. In addition to
the Committee’s formal meeting schedule,
members meet as needed with the external
auditor, Chief Financial Officer, Group
Financial Controller and General Counsel
inorder to keep abreast of all relevant
matters within theCommittee’s remit.
Committee evaluation
During the year the Committee conducted
an assessment of its performance for the
first time in its listed company form.
Thisassessment was conducted internally,
with responses recorded anonymously.
Theassessment concluded that the
Committee has operated effectively.
Financial reporting and policies
In March 2026, the Committee considered
the 2025 preliminary results announcement
and Annual Report and Accounts, including
the financial statements, Strategic Report
and Directors’ Report. The significant issues
considered by the Committee relating to the
2025 financial statements are as follows:
Critical judgements and estimates
The Committee conducted thorough reviews
of the critical judgements and estimates made
by management in preparing the financial
statements, focusing on their rationale,
compliance with accounting standards,
well‑documented assumptions and reliable
data. The focus of the review was on
ensuring appropriate policies, processes
and judgements were applied in the Group’s
first year as a public interest entity.
Capitalisation of internal
developmentcosts:
The Committee assessed the criteria for
capitalising internal development costs
related to pipeline products, ensuring
compliance with IAS 38 “Intangible Assets”.
It reviewed the capitalisation threshold and
confirmed that costs were capitalised only
when directly attributable, reliably
measurable, and related to technically
feasible and commercially viable new
products. Management assessment also
indicates that forecasted profit margins
exceeded capitalised costs.
Determination of cash-generating units
(“CGUs”) for development projects:
The Committee evaluated the identification
of CGUs for impairment testing, ensuring
alignment with IAS 36. It reviewed
managements determination that the
semiconductor CGU encompasses the
Group’s pipeline development activities,
given the significant interdependencies
within projects. The recoverable amount of
the semiconductor CGU was assessed
based on the collective earnings of products
incorporating these developments.
Useful economic lives (“UEL”) of
intangible assets:
The Committee reviewed management's
assessment of UELs at initial recognition
and the Group's policy of reviewing these at
each reporting date. It considered and
concurred with management's decision to
revise the UEL of on-market
semiconductors from six to eight years,
reflecting updated assessments of
expected future use and economic benefits,
resulting in a $1.4 million reduction in the
annual amortisation charge.
Inventory provision:
The Committee reviewed management’s
approach to determining net realisable
value, ensuring appropriate provisions for
obsolescence, slow-moving stock and
technological advancements. It assessed
factors including market demand, pricing
trends and projected sales volumes over
athree-year period. The external auditor’s
review confirmed the reasonableness of
the inventory provision, which amounted
to$6.6million in 2025 (2024: $6.2 million).
A10% decrease in estimated future demand
would increase the provision by$0.7 million.
Taxation:
The Committee reviewed the estimates
made in determining taxable profit and
the recognition of deferred taxes. Key
estimates include assessing potential
challenges from tax authorities and
evaluating the recognition of Research
and Development Expenditure Credit
(“RDEC”) claims. The Committee reviewed
these matters and agreed with
management’s assessment of the variety
of possible outcomes and its conclusion
recognising that it is reasonably plausible
that actual tax claims submitted could
vary from the accounting estimate.
Classification of transaction costs
associated with the issue of shares:
In 2025 the Company concluded further
review and analysis which resulted in the
recovery of a further $1.4 million in VAT
incurred on fees for the listing in 2024.The
Committee agreed that management’s
treatment of these costs was appropriate.

Financial reporting and policies
continued
Conclusion
The Committee, supported by Grant
Thornton’s audit report, confirmed that
these judgements were based on sound
accounting principles which were consistently
applied, and reflected appropriate levels
ofconservatism and risk management.
Going concern and viability
At each reporting date, management
considers the factors relevant to support
astatement of going concern included
inNote2.4 to the financial statements.
TheCommittee reviews and challenges
managements conclusions so that we may,
inturn, provide comfort to the Board that
managements assessment has been
considered and challenged, and is appropriate.
The Committee carefully reviewed
managements going concern conclusion
based on the Groups latest cash and debt
position. Downside case assumptions, which
incorporated sensitivity analysis and stress
testing, were reviewed. Inallcases, the Group
retained a funding surplus, confirming the
ability to meet firm commitments over the
period to 30April2027 from the date of
signing the financial statements.
The Committee subsequently recommended
to the Board that the Group continues to use
the going concern basis in preparing its
financial statements. The Committee also
reviewed and challenged management on the
sensitivity analysis performed to support the
Group’s viability statement, included in the
Strategic Report on page 53. The viability
statement review included assessing the
impact of the principal risks identified by
management. Following this challenge, the
Committee recommended approval of the
viability statement to the Board.
Fair, balanced and
understandablereporting
In response to the Code’s Principle N, the
Committee considered whether the 2025
Annual Report is fair, balanced and
understandable. In making this assessment,
we considered the following areas:
the process for preparing the report,
including the contributors, the internal
review process, and how feedback is
addressed throughout the process;
the business review narratives
presented;and
the discussion of reported and underlying
results throughout the report.
The Committee was satisfied that, taken as
a whole, the Annual Report is fair, balanced
and understandable. We reported this
conclusion to the Board.
Risk assessment, assurance
andintegrity
A key role of the Committee is to provide
oversight and support to the Board with
regard to the integrity of the Company’s
procedures for the identification, assessment,
management and reporting ofrisk. In
fulfilling its remit, the Committee remains
mindful that effective risk management is
essential to executing Raspberry Pi’s strategy,
achieving sustainable shareholder value,
protecting the brand and ensuring good
governance. During 2025, the Committee
had oversight of management’s approach
towards risk identification and monitoring.
Raspberry Pi’s risk management approach
has evolved in line with the structure of the
business reflecting the small size of its
operations and the close proximity of Senior
Management to its operations. The
Committee and Board regularly review and
challenge the rigour of management’s risk
scanning and challenge judgements being
made in response to risks.
The Committee considers that Raspberry
Pi’s risk management approach is robust
and proportionate, and facilitates a culture
of accountability and ownership among
business leaders with a particularly strong
focus on operational risks. Whilst the
business leaders have a strong focus on
operational risks, the Committee and Board
have a more strategic approach to risk
andits management.
Our organisation prioritises risk governance
at the highest level, led by the Board of
Directors. The Board, often supported by
the Audit and Risk Committee, is
responsible for representing the interests of
all stakeholders regarding risk matters. It
oversees and approves the overall risk
management strategy, defining the
organisation’s risk appetite and ensuring
effective governance of the risk
environment by Executive Management.
The Audit and Risk Committee operates
under the Terms of Reference that outline
its responsibilities and accountabilities in
providing effective risk governance as
delegated by the Board.
Internal audit
In 2024 the Committee reviewed the need
for an internal audit function and concluded
that with the growing size of the business’
operations and its increasing obligations as
a public company, an internal audit function
should be created in 2025. I am pleased to
report that an outsourced internal audit
function has been established and the team
has undertaken a Risk Maturity Assessment
of the business and has also completed
itsfirst internal audit. Detailed updates
providing an insight into the results of the
audit and Risk Maturity Assessment were
provided to the Committee.
The internal audit plan is approved by the
Committee annually. A programme of two
to three internal audits will be undertaken
each year, with detailed updates provided to
the Committee at each meeting.
Audit and Risk Committee
compliance statement
The Audit and Risk Committee ensures high
standards of corporate governance and
financial oversight, operating under formal
Terms of Reference aligned with the UK
Corporate Governance Code and the FRC
Minimum Standard for Audit Committees and
Audit Quality.
In line with the FRC Minimum Standard,
theCommittee has:
Financial reporting and internal controls:
Reviewed the integrity of the financial
statements, assessed critical estimates and
judgements and ensured appropriate
application of accounting policies.
External audit oversight:
Evaluated the auditor’s effectiveness
andobjectivity,overseeing the audit process
and tendering approach. Considered auditor
independence given the lead audit partner’s
Audit and Risk Committee report continued
64 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
Audit and Risk Committee
compliance statement continued
External audit oversight continued
role with the Principal Shareholder for
thefirst half of 2025. Concluded that
safeguards were sufficient to mitigate
independence concerns. As of October
2025, the Principal Shareholder has
changed auditor, thereby removing the
conflict and subsequent need for ongoing
safeguards in this specific respect.
Reporting:
Documented and reported its activities.
There have been no shareholder requests
regarding audit scope.
Whistleblowing and fraud prevention:
Monitored the Group’s whistleblowing,
fraud prevention and internal controls
touphold financial integrity.
Audit quality and challenge:
In alignment with these standards, the
Audit and Risk Committee proactively
enhanced its practices throughout the
year. Key steps included:
conducting a thorough review of
responsibilities concerning external
audits to ensure fair management of
non-audit relationships and to promote
diverse auditor selection;
utilising Audit Quality Indicators to evaluate
the effectiveness of the audit process,
focusing on measurable outcomes; and
documenting activities in compliance
with the new and proposed UK
Corporate Governance Code.
The Audit and Risk Committee has conducted
an evaluation of the external audit process,
assessing the effectiveness, independence,
and quality of work performed by Grant Thornton.
This evaluation incorporated feedback from
bothmanagement and Committee
members to ensure an objective and
thorough assessment.
The Committee has reviewed its performance
and, following due consideration,
recommends its reappointment at the May
2026 annual general meeting.
The Committee confirms it has fulfilled its
responsibilities under the FRC Minimum
Standard, reinforcing the Group’s commitment
to robust audit quality and governance.
During the year, Grant Thornton’s non-audit
fees were $0.1 million, for services related
to the review of the interim accounts for the
six months to 30 June 2025 as required by
the UK Listing Rules (“UKLR”). To safeguard
independence, the Committee implemented
stringent measures, including pre-approval
processes for all non‑audit services, fee
caps for non-audit services, and use of
separate teams to mitigate potential
conflicts of interest.
Audit quality review and FRC
comment letter
The FRC reviewed our Annual Report and
Accounts for the year ended 31 December
2024. The FRC Audit Quality Review (“AQR”)
team also inspected Grant Thornton’s audit of
our financial statements. Based on its review
of our Annual Report and Accounts, the FRC
had no questions or queries to raise, which is a
good achievement given it was the Company’s
first Annual Report since listing. The FRC did
note a number of items in the accounts where
further disclosure would be beneficial and one
item which was a requirement and we have
included those in this Annual Report. The AQR
inspection of the external auditor resulted in
an assessment oflimited improvements
required” with no key findings and we will
provide any necessary support to our auditor
in this regard.
The Committee and management would
like to take the opportunity to thank the FRC
for its constructive feedback.
Process for audit rotation andtender
The Committee will conduct an audit services
tender at least every ten years to ensure the
independence of the external auditor is
safeguarded. The Company was formed in
March 2024 and accordingly expected that
the next tender process will take place at the
latest in 2034.
When considering the appropriate time to
conduct an audit tender, the Committee
takes into account the benefit of an
incumbent firm with deep knowledge of the
Group’s operations enabling an efficient and
high-quality audit, the independence and
objectivity of the appointed auditor and audit
partner and the results of the assessment of
audit effectiveness. The current audit partner
has been the auditor of the Group’s trading
subsidiary for five years (including December
2025) and will therefore rotate off the audit
following the year ended December 2025. A
new audit partner has been appointed for the
audit of the year ending 31 December 2026.
The Committee confirms it was in compliance
with the provisions of The Statutory Audit
Services for Large Companies Market
Investigation (Mandatory Use of Competitive
Tender Processes and Audit Committee
Responsibilities) Order 2014 during the
financial year ended 31 December 2025.
The Committee is satisfied that these
measures have effectively maintained the
independence of the external auditor.
UK Corporate Governance
Codeupdate
In January 2024, the FRC released an
updated UK Corporate Governance Code,
with implementation set for the year ended
31 December 2025 for most provisions.
Enhanced internal control requirements
(“Provision 29”) will be effective for the year
ending 31 December 2026. The Audit and
Risk Committee has collaborated with
management to define the scope of material
internal controls and determined the extent
of internal attestation work necessary to
support the Board’s declaration of control
effectiveness, leveraging its established
controls programme. Good progress has
been made to support the required attestation
for the year ending 31 December 2026.
This comprehensive approach not only
aims to meet regulatory expectations but
also strives to build trust with stakeholders
through enhanced governance practices.
Conclusion
The Committee’s work ensures that the
Company’s governance structure is robust,
effective and transparent. We are committed
to maintaining the highest standards of
corporate governance as we embark on
ourjourney as a public company.

The Committee met once during 2025 with
all members in attendance. The meeting
was also attended by other members of
theBoard and the Company Secretary.
In addition to the formal meeting, there
were regular informal discussions on
succession planning and appointments at
the Senior Management Team level.
Role and responsibilities of the
Nomination Committee
The Nomination Committee assists the
Board of Directors in determining the
composition of the Board and the Board
Committees, and the Chair of each Board
Committee. It is also responsible for
periodically evaluating the balance of skills,
experience, independence and knowledge
on the Board of Directors.
Itleads the process for Directors’
appointments and makes
recommendations to the Board, taking into
account the challenges and opportunities
facing the Company in the future.
The Nomination Committee is responsible
for the following key activities:
regularly reviewing the structure, size and
composition of the Board;
putting in place and keeping under review
Board succession plans;
considering and reviewing the Board’s
policy on diversity;
ensuring that appointments and
succession plans are based on merit and
objective criteria;
making recommendations on the
composition of the Board Committees;
reviewing annually the time required from
Non-Executive Directors;
reviewing the results of the Board evaluation
process and its own performance;
ensuring that new Directors receive a full,
formal and tailored induction; and
reporting to the Board after each meeting
on all matters within the Committee’s
duties and responsibilities.
Activities during 2025
Last year we reported that Chris Mairs
intended to retire from the Board in
September 2025. I am delighted to confirm
that Chris subsequently decided to continue
on the Board. As a result the composition of
our Board has been stable over the year.
Due to his other commitments, Chris has
decided to step down from the
Remuneration Committee effective
November 2025, and the Board has
appointed Martin Hellawell to the
Remuneration Committee in his stead.
The Committee has focused its efforts
onevaluating the Board’s performance,
implementing the recommendations
fromthe 2024 Board performance
review,and reviewing the composition
ofthe Committees.
Annual Board and Committee
performance review
A formal internal evaluation of the Board
andCommittees was undertaken in October
2025. The Directors were asked
tocomplete a comprehensive questionnaire
anonymously to rate the effectiveness of
theChair, the Board andtheCommittees
and submit feedback. The results were then
discussed atthe November Board meeting.
Further details onthe performance review
and the results can befound in the
Corporate Governance Statement on
page61. The Audit and Risk Committee
carried out a similar in-depth evaluation
ofits own performance, further details
ofwhich can be found on page 63.
Annual review of Committee’s Terms
ofReference
The Committee’s Terms of Reference were
reviewed by the Board in November 2025
and remained unchanged.
Key activities planned
for2026
The Committee’s focus areas for
2026are:
monitoring the implementation
ofthe recommendations from
the2025 Board evaluation;
developing a framework for
reviewing strategic risk at
Boardmeetings;
overseeing the recruitment of
asuccessor to the CFO;
evaluating training needs for
Executive and Non-Executive
Directors; and
reviewing the diversity policy.

Board composition and
successionplanning
Board succession planning is focused
onensuring the right mix of skills and
experience on the Board. taking into account
our commitment to diversity. All new
appointments are based on merit, keeping in
mind that we need a Boardwhich is diverse
and inclusive in relation to skills, experience,
gender, background, personal strengths,
tenure and relevant experience.
Women represent 25% of the Board at the
year end which is below where wewould like
to be. Diversity is a factor the Board will
consider when making future appointment
decisions. We satisfy the ParkerReview
recommendations to have atleast one board
director from an ethnic minority background.
At the end of October, the Company
announced that Richard Boult would be
stepping down as the Chief Financial Officer
and as an Executive Director of the Board
during 2026. Richard joined Raspberry Pi in
2019 and was instrumental in establishing
many of our key financial and strategic
partnerships, strengthening our banking
relationships, and helping to guide us
through our IPO in June last year.
The Committee engaged the experienced
external search agency, Teneo to help it
identify and assess a diverse pool of
candidates with attributes that meet the
role specification. The search process
toidentify Richard’s successor is well
advanced and we will update the markets
as soon as that process is concluded.
We will reflect on the Board and Committee
composition during 2026 and the existing
skills, experience and diversity of the Board
will be taken into account when evaluating
candidates to succeed Richard.
Diversity and inclusion
As a Company, we value diversity and I am
pleased to report that our Board comprises
members from verydifferent social
backgrounds and upbringings, as well as a
broad range of different personality types,
skill sets and experience.
One Board member self-identifies as being
ofmultiple ethnic groups; five members
identify as being neurodivergent or having
adisability.
While only two out of eight members of
theBoard are female they bothchair key
Committees of the Board: Sherry Coutu
isSID and Chair of the Remuneration
Committee and Rachel Izzard is Chair
oftheAudit and Risk Committee.
We believe the current composition and
size of the Board is in the best interests
ofthe Company and other than appointing
Richard’s successor in due course, achange
would not be appropriate at this time.
We recognise the importance of gender
balance on the Board and are pleased to
have taken part in the FTSE Women
Leaders Review in 2025.
Werecognise we do not meet all levels
ofPLC board diversity recommendations
andwe are acutely aware of this. This is
absolutely a factor the Board will consider
when making future appointment decisions
including in respect of a successor to the
CFO and we strongly support diverse boards.
In accordance with diversity disclosures
pursuant to UK Listing Rule6.6.6R (9), the
UK Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”)
requires listed companies to disclose in a
prescribed format information on the
diversity of their board and executive
committee. The UK Listing Rules (“UKLR”)
require listed companies tostate whether
they have met certain targets on board
diversity. Theinformation in the table below
is at 31December 2025, which isthe date
selected as the reference date.
The targets for a listed company set out
inthe UKLR arethat:
at least 40% of the individuals on
itsboard of directors are women;
at least one of the following senior
positions on its board of directors
isheldby a woman: the chair; the CEO;
the CFO; or the SID; and
at least one individual on its board
ofdirectors is from a minority
ethnicbackground.
Nomination Committee report continued
67 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
Diversity on the Board andCommittees
As at the reference date, the Board met two out of three of the above targets as set out in the tables below
1
.
The composition of the Board has not changed since the reference date. TheCompany surveyed its Board and Senior Management Team
toask them toconfirm how they should be identified for gender and ethnic background, as well as information about their socio‑economic
background, heritage, education and disability. The survey was voluntary and responses were received from each member of theBoard and
Senior Management which confirmed how they should be identified. The above data has been collatedfrom those survey responses.
Review of independence
In line with the Code, during theyearthe
Committee also reviewed the independence
of the Non-Executive Directors and
confirmed to the Board that it considers
each of the Chair and the Non-Executive
Directors to be independent in accordance
with the Code other than Daniel Labbad,
whoserves as the Director nominated by
theFoundation.
Re-election of Directors
at the AGM
In accordance with the provisions of
theCode, all Directors will retire at the
forthcoming AGM of the Company
andtheBoard has recommended their
reappointment. In reaching its decision
torecommend reappointment, the Board
acted on the advice of the Committee.
TheCommittee is satisfied that all the
Directors devote sufficient time to their
duties and demonstrate commitment to
theirroles.

attract, retain and
motivate exceptional
talent, reward market
outperformance and
deliver sustainable growth
for our shareholders.

Statement by the Chair of the
Remuneration Committee
On behalf of the Board, I am delighted to
present the Directors’ Remuneration Report
for Raspberry Pi Holdings plc for the year
ended 31 December 2025, our first full year
as a listed company.
At the AGM in May 2025, the first Directors’
Remuneration Report and Directors’
Remuneration Policy received strong
support from shareholders, with 99.97%
ofvotes in favour of the Directors’
Remuneration Report and 99.93% of votes
in favour of the Directors’ Remuneration
Policy. I would like to thank shareholders
fortheir support on these resolutions.
Performance context
The business has delivered a strong
performance in the year, with demand
patterns returning to normal and
continuedprogress in delivering our long-
term strategy. The focus for 2025 was
onconsolidating and refining the product
offering, strengthening our portfolio and
delivering improvements in response
tocustomer feedback. This focus on
thefundamentals is reflected in the
strongfinancial results. Revenue for
theyear increased to $323.2 million
(2024:$259.5million) with adjusted
EBITDAincreasing to $46.4 million (2024:
$37.2 million), both growing by over 20%.
Strong performance was particularly driven
by robust demand through Q4 2025,
alongside higher gross profit per board,
itself reflecting successful navigation of
increased memory costs. We continued to
manage the business prudently, while
investing in areas that support sustainable,
long-term growth. Other highlights include:
increasing adjusted operating profit
by35% compared to last year to
$35.9million (2024: $26.5 million);
increasing total unit sales by 9%
to7.6millionunits (2024: 7.0 million
units); and
increasing total partnership revenue by24%
to $430.0 million (2024: $346.0million).
Innovation remains the foundation of
ourgrowth and in the year we launched
13new products. We also reached an
important strategic inflection point in 2025.
For the first time, our semiconductor
devices exceeded our SBCs and compute
modules in unit volumes. This milestone
represents a decisive step forward in
ourambition to build Raspberry Pi as a
two‑franchise business, combining our
well‑established electronic products with
arapidly growing semiconductor platform.
Incentive outcomes for 2025
In 2025, the Company measured
performance against a scorecard of key
business performance metrics, with a 75%
weighting on an adjusted operating profit
target and 25% weighting on board unit
sales. As with last year, the Committee
ensured stretching targets were applied,
reflecting our pay for performance ethos
asa business. To reinforce this culture,
westructure the bonus scorecard so that
threshold achievement accrues from zero
rather than a stepped payout level.
The strong performance of the business
asdescribed above meant that the bonus
isdue to pay out at 50.4% of maximum.
Thisreflects that adjusted operating profit
result of $35.9 million was between target
and maximum. The 9% growth rate on
board unit sales of 7.6 million units was
below threshold and therefore no pay-out is
due. Further details are set out on page 75.
CFO transition
As announced on 31 October 2025,
RichardBoult will step down from his role
as CFO in the second half of 2026 so that
he can explore new opportunities. The
Committee would like to thank Richard for
his contribution to the business, not least
the significant achievement of readying the
business for its successful listing on the
LSE in June 2024. A formal search process
for Richard’s replacement is currently being
undertaken and further details on the
transition will be disclosed in due course.
Remuneration Committee report
69 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
CFO transition continued
Recognising the transition, Richard will not
be granted a 2026 LTIP award, but he will
remain eligible for a 2026 bonus which will
be pro-rated to reflect the period of 2026
that he remains in employment with
theCompany.
Implementation for 2026
In terms of how we will operate our pay
framework in 2026, the Committee has
approved a salary increase of 4% for both
the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer. This is in line with the approach
being adopted for the wider workforce.
For the CEO, incentive opportunities will
remain unchanged from last year:
annual bonus opportunity of 150%
ofsalary; and
LTIP opportunity of 200% of salary.
Both awards will be subject to stretching
performance measures. The annual bonus
will continue to be based on adjusted
operating profit (75%) and a strategic
targetbased on board unit sales (25%).
Thetargets that will apply are commercially
sensitive and will be retrospectively
disclosed in next year’s Annual Report.
The LTIP award granted to the CEO will
continue to be based on cumulative
adjusted EPS (67%) and relative TSR (33%)
against the FTSE 250, excluding certain
industries. Targets will be assessed over
three years, and awards to Executive
Directors will be subject to a two-year
holding period in line with corporate
governance best practice. More details
onthe targets that will apply for our LTIP
awards are set out on page 72.
Concluding remarks
The Committee remains committed to
ensuring that responsible decisions are
made around pay. We welcome the
viewsofour shareholders and will aim
torepresent these wherever possible
inourproposals, while ensuring that
ourremuneration packages are fair and
competitive. I look forward to your support
on our Directors’ Remuneration Report
atthe forthcoming AGM.

Implementation of the Remuneration Policy in 2026
This section provides an overview of how the Remuneration Committee is proposing
toimplement our Remuneration Policy in 2026 for the Executive Directors.
Base salary
Salaries are paid in line with the Policy. The Remuneration Committee has applied
aworkforce-aligned salary increase for both Directors for 2026 of 4%.
2026 2025 % increase
Eben Upton (CEO) £477,360 £459,000 4.0%
Richard Boult (CFO) £371,280 £357,000 4.0%
Pension
Both Executive Directors are entitled to receive a pension equivalent to 8% of their base
salary, which may be payable as a cash allowance. This rate aligns to the rate offered to
thewider workforce (based on the maximum contribution available to the UK workforce).
Benefits
Eben Upton and Richard Boult receive contractual benefits such as income protection
insurance, life assurance, and cover under the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance,
aswell as other benefits available to the wider workforce. They may also receive
reimbursement of business-related expenses should these arise in the year.
Annual bonus
The annual bonus plan opportunity for 2026 will largely be unchanged from 2025 with both
Executive Directors being eligible for a maximum of 150% of salary. The annual bonus for 2026
will be determined by reference to a bonus scorecard aligned with the Company’s strategic
priorities for the year ahead. The performance measures will remain unchanged from the prior
year. As a reminder, the measures for the 2026 annual bonus are as follows:
Area of focus Weighting
Financial: Adjusted operating profit 75%
Strategic: Number of unit boards sold 25%
The target ranges and the approach to performance determination are deemed to be
commercially sensitive. However, it is anticipated that we will make retrospective disclosure
of the guiding targets and performance against these in next year’s Remuneration Report.
The Remuneration Committee has overriding discretion, where it believes it to be
appropriate, to adjust any formulaic outcome. In the event of unforeseen corporate activity
during the year, the Remuneration Committee would consider whether the performance
targets should be adjusted to ensure that they remain appropriately challenging and would
explain any such adjustments in next year’s Remuneration Report.
Bonus deferral
Under the Policy, bonus deferral typically applies to any earned annual bonus for the
Executive Directors, with one-third of any annual bonus earned deferred into shares for
aperiod of three years.
Long-Term Incentive Plan
Awards will be made in line with the Policy, with a value of 200% of annual salary. Awards
will vest three years after grant and be subject to an additional two-year holding period.
Theproposed performance measures for the 2026 award are set out below.
The LTIP award granted to the CEO will continue to be based on cumulative adjusted EPS
(67%) and relative TSR (33%) against the FTSE 250, excluding certain industries. Targets
willbe assessed over three years, and awards to Executive Directors will be subject to
atwo‑year holding period.

Long-Term Incentive Plan continued
The Committee believes these targets are stretching in the context of the Group’s strategy
and reflect its ambitious growth targets as a business. Vesting will be calculated on a
straight-line basis for performance between the threshold and maximum performance
targets. The Remuneration Committee has discretion, where it believes it to be appropriate,
to override any formulaic outcome arising from the LTIP. Typically, this will only be
exercised in a negative direction. In assessing outcomes. the Committee will also be
mindful of any risk of windfall gains.
Malus and clawback provisions may be operated at the discretion of the Remuneration
Committee in respect of any cash and deferred share elements of the bonus, and LTIP
awards. Malus/clawback can be operated up to four years following the start of the relevant
bonus year for bonuses, three years from grant for Deferred Bonus Plan (“DBP”) awards and
up to five years from the relevant date of grant for LTIP awards. These periods have been
selected to reflect the risk profile of the business and market practice around typical
recovery period lengths. Thecircumstances in which malus and clawback may be applied
are set out in our Policy, whichis included in last year’s Annual Report.
Non-Executive Director remuneration
The fees for the Non-Executive Directors and the Chair were set at Admission. The Company’s
Non-Executive Director fee policy is to pay a basic fee for membership of the Board, and
additional fees for the SID and chairing of a Board Committee. This reflects that these roles
require additional responsibility and time commitment. Reasonable expenses and other
benefits may also be provided. Additional fees may also be provided where additional duties
are required to be performed by any Non-Executive Director. Non-Executive Director fees are
determined by the full Board except for the fee for the Chair of the Board, which is
determined by the Remuneration Committee.
No increases will be made to the Chair fee or additional fees for 2026 from the levels
adopted at Admission. The NED base fee will increase by 4%, in line with the increase
adopted for the wider workforce. The fees are set out below.
2026 fees 2025 fees
Chair of the Board all-inclusive fee £221,000 £221,000
Base Non-Executive Director fee £60,320 £58,000
Senior Independent Director additional fee £10,000 £10,000
Committee Chair additional fee £13,000 £13,000

FY 2025 annual bonus – Summary of performance
The maximum annual bonus opportunity for the Executive Directors in 2025 was 150% of
salary for both Executive Directors. Targets for the annual bonus were aligned with strategic
priorities for the year, being based on an adjusted operating profit (75%) target and an SBC
and compute module unit sales (25%) target. Performance measures and targets applying
to the 2025 annual bonus, along with performance achieved, are set out below.
Threshold vesting accrues from 0% of the available award (this is below the level available under
the approved Policy of 25%, demonstrating Raspberry Pi’s commitment in practice toensuring
incentive pay-outs align with outperformance). Based on the performance against the pre-set and
stretching targets, the Committee approved an out-turn of 50.4% forboth Directors. Bonus
deferral will apply to Eben Upton in line with the Policy. Under the Policy, one-third ofthe earned
bonus is deferred into shares for a period of three years. Recognising Richard Boult’s planned
departure from the business in 2026, and inaccordance with the discretion afforded it under the
Policy, the Remuneration Committee hasdetermined that Richards bonus will be paid in cash.
The Committee recognises that Richard remains highly aligned with shareholders through his
material shareholding as displayed in the table of shareholdings of Executive Directors.

LTIP awards made in the year
During 2025, the Company made the first annual grant under the LTIP in accordance with
the approved Remuneration Policy to both Executive Directors. When determining the
Directors’ awards, the Committee took into account the prevailing share price at the time
ofgrant being mindful of any risk of windfall gains.

office during 2025. As set out above, the CFO, Richard Boult, will depart the business in
2026 to explore new challenges. Details on his departure will be disclosed in due course on
the website and within next year’s Annual Report following his departure.
Statement of Directors’ shareholding and share interests
Executive Directors are expected to achieve a holding of shares worth 200% of salary.
TheRemuneration Committee reviews ongoing individual performance against this
shareholding requirement at the end of each financial year. Both Executive Directors
currently significantly exceed their minimum guideline meaning both Directors are well
aligned with our shareholders. In line with best practice, the Company operates
post‑cessation shareholding requirements, and the Directors must continue to hold
100%oftheir guideline for two years post-employment.
Detail on the number of shares held by Directors as at 31 December 2025 is set out below:

share price as at 31 December 2025 have been used (£3.002 per share).
2 Between 31 December 2025 and 30 March 2026, Eben Upton has purchased 71,927 additional shares, taking his
total shareholding, including that of his connected person, to 3,136,728. The shareholding for Richard Boult has
not changed since 31 December 2025.
3 Awards are market value options granted on 11 June 2024. The exercise price was set at the offer price of £2.80.
4 Note that this includes shares owned by a connected person.
5 Christopher Mairs stepped down from his role as member of the Remuneration Committee in the year but
remains Chair of the Sustainability Committee and a member of the Board.
The Directors did not have any other share or scheme interests.
Unaudited information

Performance graph and CEO remuneration table
The chart below compares the total shareholder return performance of the Company over
the period from Admission to 31 December 2025 to the performance of the FTSE 250, as
well as against our FTSE 250 TSR peer group for further information. The FTSE 250 Index
has been chosen because Raspberry Pi has been a member of this index in the year, being
promoted in September 2024 following our listing in June 2024. The base point in the chart
for the Company equates to the offer price of 280 pence per share. The table opposite
summarises the CEO single figure for total remuneration, annual bonus pay-outs and
long‑term incentive vesting levels as a percentage of maximum opportunity over this period.

CEO pay ratio
Raspberry Pi has below 250 UK employees and is therefore exempt from the legislative
requirement to disclose a ratio between the remuneration of the CEO and UK employees;
however, the Committee has decided to publish this information as a matter of
transparency. For all employees, we have shown the pay ratio excluding the legacy LTIP
arrangements given this does not give an accurate representation of the pay approach
across the business. This aligns with the CEO single figure.

As shown, the pay ratio has increased from the prior year. This is due to 50.4% of the
executive team performance bonus target being achieved in 2025. The increase also arises
from the salary increases awarded only part way through 2024 to Directors, as a result of
the company listing on the London Stock Exchange.
Relative importance of the spend on pay
The table below illustrates the total expenditure on remuneration in 2024 and 2025 for all of

Consideration by the Directors of matters relating to Directors’ remuneration
The Remuneration Committee is chaired by Sherry Coutu CBE and comprised Rachel Izzard
and Chris Mairs until 25 November 2025 when Chris Mairs stepped down and Martin Hellawell
was appointed to the Remuneration Committee. Details of their attendance is set out on
page 59. The Remuneration Committee met four times during 2025. Other attendees
present at these meetings by invitation at various points were the CEO, the CFO, the
Company Chair and the General Counsel. No individual took part in decision making when
their own remuneration was being determined.
The Remuneration Committee is responsible for determining the Company Chair’s fee and
all aspects of Executive Director remuneration as well as the determination of other Senior
Management’s remuneration. The Remuneration Committee also oversees the operation of
all share plans. Full Terms of Reference of the Remuneration Committee are available on
our website at www.raspberrypi.com.
During the year, the Remuneration Committee received advice from Deloitte LLP. Advice to
the Committee included pay benchmarking and incentive design for which Deloitte LLP was
paid £92,500. This was charged on a time and expenses basis. The Committee is satisfied
that the advice it has received has been objective and independent. Deloitte was appointed
following a competitive tender process prior to Admission. Deloitte LLP is a founding
member of the Remuneration Consultants Group and, as such, voluntarily operates under
the code of conduct in relation to executive remuneration consulting in the UK. Deloitte LLP
also provided advice to the Company in relation to taxation services and the operation of its
share plans.

Workforce remuneration and engagement
The Committee is kept aware of the approach to remuneration across the business
andtakes this into account when determining the approach to Executive Director pay.
Theoverarching reward strategy for the business is also discussed at the Committee.
Raspberry Pi believes in broad participation in our equity plans, and therefore awards
“Restricted Shares” on a broad basis across the business. At the November meeting,
theCommittee reviewed details on the approach to reward operated across the business
toensure they had insight and analysis on the broader workforce pay approach to guide
theirthinking.
Engagement with shareholders
The Remuneration Committee undertook significant engagement with shareholders as part
of the development of the inaugural Remuneration Policy. This input guided the final design
of the Policy, as described in last year’s Annual Report. The Committee will continue to
engage with shareholders on key remuneration matters as they arise, and is committed
toensuring open and receptive dialogue with shareholders.
External Board appointments
Executive Directors are not entitled to accept a Non-Executive Director appointment outside
the Company without the prior approval of the Board. Neither of the current Executive
Directors currently holds any such appointment.
Dilution and use of equity
Awards under Raspberry Pi’s share plans can be satisfied using market purchased shares
or newly issued shares. There are limits on the amount of shares that can be issued in any
rolling ten-year period for the purposes of share awards. As disclosed at listing, Raspberry
Pi has elected to apply a higher dilution limit in its share plans of 14% in ten years rather
than the UK standard 10% in ten years to reflect that it competes for talent with US and
international tech businesses where broad-based equity participation is common.
Ourcurrent dilution usage, incorporating the anticipated grants in 2026, is 2.1%, meaning we
have significant headroom of 11.9% against our dilution budget. While we principally intend
to use issued shares for the purposes of share awards, we may also use market purchase
shares where appropriate.

Corporate details
Raspberry Pi Holdings plc (the “Company”) is a public limited company incorporated in
England and Wales, with its registered office at 194 Cambridge Science Park, Milton Road,
Cambridge, England CB4 0AB. The company number is 15557387.
Annual general meeting
The 2026 annual general meeting of the Company will be held on 4 June 2026 at 8:30am in
Cambridge. The notice convening the meeting, together with details of the business to be
considered and explanatory notes for each resolution, will be published separately and is
available on the Company’s website.
Directors
The Directors of the Company who served during the year, and those appointed after the
end of the financial year, are shown on pages 56 and 57. Details of the Directors’ interests in
shares can be found in the Directors’ Remuneration Report on pages 75 and 76. During the
year, no Director had any material interest in any contract with the Company or a subsidiary
being a contract of significance in relation to the Company’s business.
Power of Directors
The Directors are responsible for the management of the business of the Company and
may exercise all powers of the Company subject to applicable legislation and regulation
andthe Company’s Articles.
The rules governing the appointment and replacement of Directors are set out in the
Company’s Articles of Association. The Articles of Association may be amended by special
resolution of the Company’s shareholders. A copy of the Articles of Association can be
found on the Company’s website: https://investors.raspberrypi.com/ipo.
Directors’ indemnities and liability insurance
The Company’s Articles of Association provide, subject to the provision of UK legislation,
anindemnity for Directors and officers of the Company in respect of liabilities they may
incur in the discharge of their duties or in the exercise of their powers.
Without prejudice, the Directors have the right to purchase and maintain insurance for the
benefit of any person who is or was at any time a Director or Secretary of the Company or
any person who is or was at any time a trustee of any pension fund or employees’ share
scheme in which employees of the Group are interested. This includes insurance against
any liability (including all costs, charges, losses and expenses in relation to such liability)
incurred by or attaching to such person in relation to such person’s duties, powers or offices
in relation to the Company, or any such pension fund or employees’ share scheme.
Directors’ report
79 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
Research and development
We prioritise in-house development with a small, highly skilled engineering team, releasing
newcore hardware every three to four years. During the year, our investment included the
finalisation of the Raspberry Pi 500+, the ongoing development of Raspberry Pi 6 and
related semiconductor products and further microcontroller variants.
In accordance with IAS 38 “Intangible Assets”, internal development costs are capitalised
when the criteria outlined in critical judgement 2.5.1 on pages 101 and 102 are met.
Research and development costs were $22.5 million. These are the costs associated with
the Group’s efforts to develop new products and are primarily made up of the labour and
related costs remaining after capitalisation of allowable labour and related development
costs, and theamortisation of such costs capitalised in prior periods.
Increased investment in innovation, together with a higher proportion of projects that did not
meet the Group’s capitalisation criteria, resulted in the value of development costs capitalised
being broadly in line with the amortisation of previously capitalised costs.
Financial instruments and risk management
The Board regulates the use of free-standing derivatives (such as forward foreign exchange
contracts) in accordance with established risk management strategies. At the year end, all
financial instruments, except forward contracts measured at fair value through profit or loss
(“FVTPL”), are measured at amortised cost; further information on financial instruments
andrisk management is given in Note 24 to the consolidated financial statements.
Results and dividends
The year’s results are set out in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.
TheDirectors are not recommending a final dividend for the financial year ended
31December 2025.
Share capital
As of 31December 2025, the Company’s share capital consisted of 193,582,149 ordinary
shares in issue and 61,610,435 deferred shares, with a nominal value of 0.0025 pence.
Thedeferred shares have no right to receive dividends or other distributions, no right
toreceive notice of, attend or vote at any general meeting of the Company and no right
ofredemption.
During the financial year, the Company did not purchase any of its own shares. No shareholders
have waived rights to dividends.
Major shareholders
As at 31December 2025, the Company had been notified under the Disclosure and

80 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
Shareholder and voting rights continued
The Company is not aware of any agreements between shareholders that may result in
restrictions on the transfer of securities and voting rights. There are no restrictions on the
transfer of ordinary shares in the Company other than certain restrictions imposed by laws
and regulations (such as insider trading laws and market requirements relating to closed
periods) and requirements of internal rules and procedures whereby Directors and certain
employees of the Company are required to hold certain shares for a set period and also
requires prior approval to deal in the Company’s securities.
Controlling shareholders
A “controlling shareholder” is defined in the UK Listing Rules (“UKLR”) as any person who
exercises or controls, on their own or together with any person with whom they are acting
inconcert, 30% or more of the votes able to be cast on all, or substantially all, matters at
general meetings of the Company.
As shown above as at 31December 2025, the Raspberry Pi Foundation through its
subsidiary Raspberry Pi Mid Co Ltd holds a 46.66% equity stake in the Group. Immediately
before the IPOon 11 June 2024, the Group formalised a Relationship Agreement with the
Foundation touphold corporate independence. This agreement remains effective until
theFoundation’s shareholding decreases below 10% or the Group’s shares are delisted.
Itstipulates that all transactions must occur on arm’s length terms and prohibits the
Foundation from voting on matters affecting itself or engaging in actions that breach
UKLRor compromise the Group’s independence.
The Ezrah Charitable Trust holds a 3.32% shareholding as at the year-end date. As disclosed
to the takeover panel prior to the initial public offering in May 2024, the Group believes that
Ezrah acts in concert with the Foundation. With a combined shareholding of 49.98%, a
parallel Relationship Agreement with Ezrah was also executed on 11 June 2024.
The Foundation is entitled to nominate up to two Non-Executive Directors if its shareholding
exceeds 25%, or one if it is between 10% and 25%. Currently, Daniel Labbad serves as the
Director nominated by the Foundation. All other Board members were appointed without
external influence and are regarded as independent.
Change of control and loss of office
The Company is not party to any significant agreements which take effect, alter or
terminate solely upon a change of control of the Company. However, in the event of a
change of control of the Company, Raspberry Pi Holdings plc’s Revolving Credit Facility will
be subject to early repayment in full if a majority of the lending banks give written notice,
orin part if a lending bank gives written notice following a change of control.
The Company’s share option plans and its Long-Term Incentive Plan contain provisions
regarding a change of control. Outstanding options and awards may vest on a change of
control, subject to the satisfaction of any relevant performance conditions.
Directors’ service contracts are terminable by the Company on giving one year’s notice.
Thereare no agreements between the Company and its Directors or employees providing for
additional compensation for loss of office or employment (whether through resignation,
redundancy, retirement or otherwise) that occurs because of a takeover bid.
Political donations
The Group did not make any political donations during the year.
Branches
The Company has no overseas branches.
Auditor
In accordance with section 489 of the Companies Act 2006, a resolution proposing
toreappoint Grant Thornton LLP as auditor to the Group will be proposed at the AGM,
withalevel of remuneration subject to the approval of the Audit and Risk Committee.
Disclosure of information to the auditor
Each of the Directors at the date of the approval of this report confirms that:
so far as the Director is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the
Company’s auditor is unaware; and
the Director has taken all the reasonable steps that they ought to have taken as a Director
to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the
Company’s auditor is aware of the information.
The confirmation is given and should be interpreted in accordance with the provisions
of section 418 of the Companies Act 2006.
Events after the reporting period
Details of important events affecting Raspberry Pi since 31December 2025 are disclosed
inNote 32 to the consolidated financial statements.
The Directors’ Report has been approved by the Board and is signed on its behalf by:
Richard Boult
Chief Financial Officer
30March 2026
Directors’ report continued
81 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report, the Directors’ Remuneration
Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial
year.Under that law, the Directors have prepared the Group financial statements with
UK‑adopted International Accounting Standards (“IAS”), with International Financial
Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board
(“IASB”) andwith the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the “Act”). The Directors
have alsochosen to prepare the standalone Company financial statements in accordance
with FRS101 “Reduced Disclosure Framework” (“FRS 101”) and with the requirements
ofthe Companies Act 2006.
Under company law, the Directors must not approve the financial statements unless they
aresatisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and the
Company and of the profit or loss of the Group and Company for that period. In preparing
these financial statements, the Directors are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
present information, including accounting policies, in a manner that provides relevant,
reliable, comparable and understandable information;
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable andprudent;
provide additional disclosures when compliance with the specific requirements in IFRS
isinsufficient to enable users to understand the impact of particular transactions, other
events and conditions of the entity’s financial performance;
for the Group financial statements, state whether International Accounting Standards
inconformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and IFRS have
beenfollowed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the
financialstatements;
for the standalone Company financial statements, state whether applicable United
Kingdom Accounting Standards, comprising FRS 101 “Reduced Disclosure Framework”
have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the
financial statements; and
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate
topresume that the Group and Company will continue in business.
The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient
toshow and explain the transactions, and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time
the financial position of the Group and the Company, and enable them to ensure that the
financial statements and the Directors’ Remuneration Report comply with the Companies
Act 2006 and,as regards the Group financial statements, Article 4 of the IAS Regulation.
They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and the Company
andhence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and
otherirregularities.
Under applicable law and regulations, the Directors are also responsible for preparing
aStrategic Report, Directors’ Report, Directors’ Remuneration Report and Corporate
Governance Statement that comply with that law and those regulations.
Each of the Directors, whose names and functions are listed in the Board of Directors
section on pages 56 and 57, confirm that, to the best of their knowledge:
so far as the Directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the
Group’s and the Company’s auditor is unaware; and
the Directors have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as Directors in order
to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the
Group’s and the Company’s auditor is aware of that information.
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report in accordance with applicable
laws and regulations. The Directors consider the Annual Report and financial statements,
taken as a whole, provides the information necessary to assess the Group and Company’s
performance, business model and strategy, and is fair, balanced and understandable.
The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and
financial information included on the Group and Company’s website. Legislation in the
United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of the financial statements
may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Opinion
Our opinion on the financial statements is unmodified
We have audited the financial statements of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc (the “parent
company”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) for the year ended 31 December 2025,
which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the
Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Consolidated Statement of
Changes in Equity, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Company Balance
Sheet, the Company Statement of Changes in Equity and notes to the financial
statements, including material accounting policy information. The financial reporting
framework that has been applied in the preparation of the parent company financial
statements is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including
Financial Reporting Standard 101 “Reduced Disclosure Framework” (United Kingdom
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion:
the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of the Group’s and
of the parent company’s affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of the Group’s profit
and the parent company’s loss for the year then ended;
the Group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with
UK-adopted International Accounting Standards;
the parent company financial statements have been properly prepared in
accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements
of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK)
(“ISAs(UK)”) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further
described in the “Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements” section
of our report. We are independent of the Group and the parent company in accordance with
the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK,
including the FRC’s Ethical Standard as applied to listed public interest entities, and we have
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe
that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
forour opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
We are responsible for concluding on the appropriateness of the Directors’ use of the going
concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material
uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the
Group’s and the parent company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude
that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our report to the
related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to
modify the auditor’s opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up
to the date of our report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group or the
parent company to cease to continue as a going concern.
Our evaluation of the Directors’ assessment of the Group’s and the parent company’s
abilityto continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included the
followingprocedures:
We obtained and challenged management’s assessment of going concern assumptions
and supporting information, including budgets and cash flow forecasts for the period
to30 April 2027.
We tested the arithmetical accuracy of the model.
We evaluated historical forecasting accuracy by comparing the forecasts made in 2024
for the current period against the actual results in the current period.
We considered the actual results of the Group post 31 December 2025 up to the date
ofsigning the audit opinion to determine whether actual results are in line with
budgetedresults.

Conclusions relating to going concern continued
We challenged the key assumptions used by management in the going concern model for
adequacy and assessed whether purchase commitments for component inventory have
been appropriately included within the forecasts.
We obtained management’s sensitivities and assessed these for reasonableness and
challenged management’s plans and options for mitigating actions.
We considered the disclosures concerning the going concern basis of preparation of the
financial statements and assessed these for adequacy and completeness.
In our evaluation of the Directors’ conclusions, we considered the inherent risks associated
with the Group’s and the parent company’s business model including effects arising from
macro-economic uncertainties such as cost of energy, global uncertainty and scarcity of
resources and supply chain disruptions making it increasingly challenging to manage
inventory and production pipelines, driven by rising prices and uncertainty about future
memory component costs, and we assessed and challenged the reasonableness of
estimates made by the Directors and the related disclosures and analysed how those risks
might affect the Group’s and the parent company’s financial resources or ability to continue
operations over the going concern period. In auditing the financial statements, we have
concluded that the Directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the
preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties
relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt
on the Group’s and the parent company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period
of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
In relation to the Group’s reporting on how it has applied the UK Corporate Governance
Code, we have nothing material to add or draw attention to in relation to the Directors’
statement in the financial statements about whether the Directors considered it appropriate
to adopt the going concern basis of accounting.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Directors with respect to going concern
are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Our approach to the audit
Overview of our audit approach
Overall materiality:
Group: $2,422,000, which represents
approximately 0.75% of the Group’s revenue.
Parent company: $2,422,000, which represents
approximately 0.75% total assets. Parent
company materiality has been capped at
Groupmateriality.
Key audit matters were identified as:
capitalisation of development costs
(sameas previous year); and
net realisable value of inventory
(sameasprevious year).
Our Auditor’s Report for the year ended
31December 2024 included no key audit
matters that have not been reported as key
audit matters in our current year’s report.
We performed an audit of financial information
using component materiality (full-scope audit
procedures) for Raspberry Pi Ltd and an audit
ofone or more classes of transactions (specific
scope procedures) forRaspberry Pi Holdings plc
(the parent company).
The components which were subject to
full‑scope and specific scope audit procedures
contributed 100% of the Group’s revenue, 100%
of the Group’s absolute profit before taxand
100% of the Group’s total assets.
We performed analytical procedures using
Group materiality on the financial information
ofthe remaining two Group components which
are Raspberry Pi North America Trading Inc
andRaspberry Pi Ireland Ltd.

Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most
significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period and include the
most significant assessed risks of material misstatement (whether or not due to fraud)
thatwe identified. These matters included those that had the greatest effect on: the
overallaudit strategy; the allocation of resources in the audit; and directing the efforts
oftheengagement team. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the
financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide
a separate opinion on these matters.
In the graph below, we have presented the key audit matters and significant risks relevant
tothe audit. This is not a complete list of all risks identified by our audit.

Key Audit Matter – Group How our scope addressed the matter – Group
Capitalisation of development costs
We identified the capitalisation of development costs as one of the most significant
assessed risks of material misstatement due to fraud and error.
Under IAS 38 “Intangible Assets”, development costs are capitalised if certain criteria have
been met. The amount of costs capitalised during the period is material. There is a risk that
the capitalised development costs do not meet the criteria for capitalisation.
There is a significant risk due to fraud, particularly in the potential misallocation of costs
between projects to achieve targeted financial outcomes by increasing the proportion
ofcosts capitalised to improve profitability.
Additionally, there is judgement involved in meeting the IAS 38 criteria, which may lead
toerrors due to the complexity and uncertainty resulting in inappropriate capitalisation
ofdevelopment expenditures during the period.
In responding to the key audit matter, we performed the following audit procedures:
obtained an understanding of the capitalisation process and evaluated the design and
implementation of relevant controls therein;
for a sample of projects, assessed whether capitalisation had occurred in accordance
with the criteria specified by IAS 38. This included discussions with Group management
outside of the finance team;
to assess if time had been appropriately allocated to projects, we held discussions with
aselection of engineers, gained an understanding of how they had spent their time during
the period and assessed whether this was consistent with their timesheet data, which is
used to calculate the costs to be capitalised against each project;
agreed a sample of relevant time costs to payroll and other supporting records, such as
timesheets, as appropriate to determine the accuracy of the costs;
agreed a sample of other costs capitalised in the period to external invoices to determine
the accuracy of the costs, whether the project detailed on the purchase order for the
items in our sample was consistent with the project against which the cost was
capitalised, and that the costs did not relate to maintenance of existing on-market
projects; and
assessed the adequacy and completeness of related disclosures in the Annual Report
against IAS 38.

Key Audit Matter – Group How our scope addressed the matter – Group
Net realisable value of inventory
We identified the net realisable value of inventory as one of the most significant assessed
risks of material misstatement due to fraud and error.
The inventory balance held by the Group is material.
There is a risk that inventory may be misstated due to improper valuation.
The valuation of inventory has significant areas of estimation uncertainty due to the rapid
pace of technological advancements and the risk of product obsolescence inherent in the
computer industry. In determining the inventory provision several factors are considered
including market demand, pricing trends and likelihood of future sales which means there
issignificant judgement and estimate involved.
Specifically, there is an increased level of complexity and therefore risk of error when
determining the amounts to be provided against as well as increased opportunity
tofraudulently understate the level of provision required.
In responding to the key audit matter, we performed the following audit procedures:
obtained an understanding of the inventory provisioning process and evaluated the
design and implementation of relevant controls therein;
assessed whether the provision has been consistently applied in accordance with
IAS2“Inventories”;
assessed the working used in the provision calculation against the accounting
framework and accounting policy to consider whether the judgements made are
reasonable and applied accurately;
performed a look back test to compare the inventory provision with prior periods,
toestablish the accuracy of management’s assumptions;
obtained management’s workings for the inventory provision and tested the numerical
accuracy of the workings by reperforming the calculation and tested that the inventory
has been correctly classified in the calculation;
evaluated whether assumptions used in the calculation, such as expected usage and
forecasted sales data, were reasonable and consistent with other areas of the financial
statements such as going concern and impairment models;
for a sample of items with a specific provision, or where management has reason to
override the policy, assessed the reasonableness of the assumptions applied; and
assessed the adequacy and completeness of the related disclosures in the Annual Report.

Our application of materiality
We apply the concept of materiality both in planning and performing the Audit and Risk Committee, and in evaluating the effect of identified misstatements on the audit and of uncorrected
misstatements, if any, on the financial statements and in forming the opinion in the Auditor’s Report.
Materiality was determined as follows:
Materiality measure Group Parent company
Materiality for financial statements
as a whole
We define materiality as the magnitude of misstatement in the financial statements that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be
expected to influence the economic decisions of the users of these financial statements. We use materiality in determining the nature, timing
and extent of our audit work.
Materiality threshold $2,422,000 (2024: $987,000), which represents 0.75% of revenue
(2024: 5% of profit before tax excluding IPO-related costs).
$2,422,000 (2024: $836,000), based on 0.75% of total assets.
Parentcompany materiality has been capped at Group materiality.
Significant judgements made by
auditor in determining materiality
In determining materiality, we made the following significant judgements:
We evaluated a range of benchmarks including revenue and profit
before tax.
Total revenue was determined to be the most appropriate
benchmark because of its prominence in the financial statements
and its significance to stakeholders and key users of accounts.
Additionally, it serves as a stable benchmark and is appropriate
when comparing to other listed businesses.
A threshold of 0.75% of revenue is considered to be appropriate,
as it aligns with industry benchmarks and FTSE comparators.
Materiality for the current year is higher than the level that we
determined for the year ended 31 December 2024 to reflect the
growth of the business in the year and the change to a more
appropriate benchmark for the current period of reporting.
In determining materiality, we made the following significant judgement:
The parent company’s total assets is considered the most
appropriate benchmark because the largest financial statement
line items are investments and intercompany receivables and
principle activity is that of an investment holding company which
does not trade.
Materiality for the current year is higher than the level that we
determined for the year ended 31 December 2024 to reflect
increased total assets.

Strategic report – Governance – Financial statements
Our application of materiality continued
Performance materiality used
todrive the extent of our testing
We set performance materiality at an amount less than materiality for the financial statements as a whole to reduce to an appropriately low level
the probability that the aggregate of uncorrected and undetected misstatements exceeds materiality for the financial statements as a whole.
Performance materiality threshold $1,690,000 (2024: $690,900), which is 70% (2024: 70%) of financial
statement materiality.
The range of component performance materialities used across the
Group was $1,600,000 to $1,430,000.
$1,430,000 (2024: $585,200), which is 85% (2024: 70%) of
Group performance materiality. Parent company component
performance materiality has been capped at an amount less
than Group performance materiality for Group audit purposes.
Significant judgements made
byauditor in determining
performance materiality
In determining performance materiality, we made the following
significantjudgements:
our understanding of the Group, updated during the performance of risk
assessment procedures; and
our experience with auditing the financial statements of Raspberry Pi
Holdings plc in previous years (for example, the level of uncorrected
misstatements in prior periods).
In determining component performance materiality, we made the
following significant judgements:
extent of disaggregation of financial information across components.
All of the Group’s revenue and the majority of its expenses and other
income are included in a single component.
For each component in scope for our Group audit, we allocated aperformance
materiality that is less than our overall Group performance materiality.
In determining performance materiality, we made the following
significant judgements:
our understanding of the entity,
updated during the performance of risk assessment
procedures;and
our experience with auditing the parent company financial
statements in previous years (for example, the level of
uncorrectedmisstatements in prior periods).
Specific materiality We determine specific materiality for one or more particular classes of transactions, account balances or disclosures for which
misstatements of lesser amounts than materiality for the financial statements as a whole could reasonably be expected to influence the
economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.
Specific materiality We determined a lower level of specific materiality for the following areas:
Directors’ remuneration; and
transactions with Directors’ related parties external to the Group.
We determined a lower level of specific materiality for the
following areas:
Directors’ remuneration; and
transactions with Directors’ related parties external to the Group.
Communication of misstatements
tothe Audit and Risk Committee
We determine a threshold for reporting unadjusted differences to the Audit and Risk Committee.
Threshold for communication $120,000 (2024: $49,400), which represents 5% of financial statement
materiality, and misstatements below that threshold that, in our view,
warrant reporting on qualitative grounds.
$120,000 (2024: $41,800), which represents 5% of financial
statement materiality, and misstatements below that threshold

An overview of the scope of our audit
We performed a risk-based audit that requires an understanding of the Group’s and the
parent company’s business and in particular matters related to:
Understanding the Group, its components, their environments, and its system of internal
control including common controls
The engagement team obtained an understanding of the Group and its components, their
environment, and the Group’s system of internal control, including the nature and extent
of common controls and centralised activities relevant to financial reporting, and
assessed the risks of material misstatement at the Group level.
The engagement team noted that accounting for all components is performed within a
central function within the United Kingdom and therefore determined that component
audit work should be performed by the Group audit team.
Identifying components at which to perform audit procedures
The Group auditor determined the components at which to perform further audit
procedures, by considering:
The Group’s trading subsidiary, Raspberry Pi Ltd, individually includes a risk of
materialmisstatement to the Group financial statements as it contains all of the
Group’s external revenue.
The parent company was included in scope for further audit procedures to obtain
sufficient appropriate audit evidence and to ensure appropriate coverage at the
financial statement level across the Group.
Type of work to be performed on financial information of parent and other components
(including how it addressed the key audit matters)
Audit procedures were performed on the entire financial information of Raspberry Pi Ltd
(full-scope audit). This work included full coverage of the two key audit matters described
inthe relevant section of this report.
In the context of the Group audit, the audit of the parent company included one or
moreclasses of transactions including specified, risk-focused audit procedures
(specificscope procedures).
Analytical procedures at the Group level (analytical procedures) were performed on the
Group’s North American and Irish subsidiaries. The Group’s other subsidiary has not
traded and has no balances.

An overview of the scope of our audit continued
Performance of our audit
All audit procedures were performed from a single location, being the Group’s Head
Officein the United Kingdom, with the exception of physical inventory count procedures.
The Group has a set of centralised controls. We have assessed the design and
implementation of the Group-wide controls including obtaining a sufficient understanding
of its relevant controls over the consolidation process and IT environment.
Full-scope audit procedures were performed on Raspberry Pi Ltd and specific scope audit
procedures were performed on Raspberry Pi Holdings plc which provided coverage of
100% of Group revenue, 100% of Group total assets and 100% of Group absolute profit
before tax.
Our audit work included interim testing in advance of the period end, evaluation of the
Group’s internal control environment, the consolidation process and consideration of
ITsystems and assessment of the design and implementation of IT controls.
Full-scope audit procedures were performed.
Further audit procedures performed on components subject to specific scope and specified
procedures may not have included testing of all significant account balances of such
components, but further audit procedures were performed on specific accounts within that
component that we, the Group auditor, considered had the potential for the greatest impact
on the Group financial statements either due to risk, size or coverage.
The components within the scope of further audit procedures accounted for the following

Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report 2025,
otherthan the financial statements and our Auditor’s Report therein. The Directors are
responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. Our opinion
onthefinancial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the
extentotherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the
other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such
material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine
whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based
on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of
thisother information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in thisregard.

Our opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 are unmodified
In our opinion, the part of the Directors’ Remuneration Report to be audited has been
properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors’ Report for the
financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with
the financial statements and those reports have been prepared in accordance
withapplicable legal requirements;
the information about internal control and risk management systems in relation
tofinancial reporting processes and about share capital structures, given in
compliance with rules 7.2.5 and 7.2.6 in the Disclosure Rules and Transparency
Rules sourcebook made by the Financial Conduct Authority (the FCA Rules), is
consistent with the financial statements and has been prepared in accordance
with applicable legal requirements; and
information about the Company’s Corporate Governance Code and practices
andabout its administrative, management and supervisory bodies and their
committees complies with rules 7.2.2, 7.2.3 and 7.2.7 of the FCA Rules.
Matters on which we are required to report under the Companies Act 2006
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the parent company
andtheir environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material
misstatements in:
the Strategic Report or the Directors’ Report; or
the information about internal control and risk management systems in relation to
financial reporting processes and about share capital structures, given in compliance
withrules 7.2.5 and 7.2.6 of the FCA Rules.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the
Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent company, or returns
adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
the parent company financial statements and the part of the Directors’ Remuneration
Report to be audited are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
certain disclosures of Directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
a corporate governance statement has not been prepared by the parent company.
Corporate governance statement
We have considered the Directors’ statement in relation to going concern, longer-term
viability and that part of the Corporate Governance Statement relating to the Group’s
compliance with the provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code specified for our
review by the Listing Rules.
Based on the work undertaken as part of our audit, we have concluded that each of the
following elements of the Corporate Governance Statement is materially consistent with
thefinancial statements or our knowledge obtained during the audit:
the Directors’ statement with regard to the appropriateness of adopting the going concern
basis of accounting and any material uncertainties identified set out on page 53;
the Directors’ explanation as to their assessment of the Group’s prospects, the period this
assessment covers and why the period is appropriate set out on page 53;
the Directors’ statement on whether they have a reasonable expectation that the Group
will be able to continue in operation and meet its liabilities set out on page 53;
the Directors’ statement on fair, balanced and understandable set out on page 82;
the Board’s confirmation that it has carried out a robust assessment of the emerging and
principal risks set out on page 41;
the section of the Annual Report that describes the review of the effectiveness of risk
management and internal control systems set out on page 64; and
the section describing the work of the Audit and Risk Committee set out on page 62.

Responsibilities of Directors
As explained more fully in the Directors’ Responsibilities Statement set out on page 82,
theDirectors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being
satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Directors
determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free
frommaterial misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Directors are responsible for assessing the
Group’s and the parent company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing,
asapplicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis
ofaccounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the Group or the parent
companyor to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue
an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of
assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK)
willalways detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or
inthe aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions
ofusers taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud,
isdetailed below:
The following laws and regulations were identified as the most significant: UK-adopted
International Accounting Standards (“IFRS”), the FCA Listing Rules, Companies Act 2006
and the relevant tax legislation in the United Kingdom and other jurisdictions in which the
Group operates. In addition, we concluded that there are certain significant laws and
regulations that may have an effect on the determination of the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements, including data security and protection, and health and safety.
We made enquiries with management and the Audit and Risk Committee concerning the
Group’s policies and procedures relating to:
the identification of, evaluation of and compliance with laws and regulations;
the detection and response to the risks of fraud; and
the establishment of internal controls to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-
compliance with laws and regulations.
We corroborated our enquiries through our reading of Board meeting minutes and
through our consideration of professional fees incurred by the parent company and
fullscope component during the period.
We assessed the susceptibility of the Group and parent company’s financial statements
to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur, by evaluating management’s
incentives and opportunities for manipulation of the financial statements. This included
the evaluation of the risk of management override of controls. Audit procedures
performed by the audit engagement team included:
identifying and assessing the design effectiveness of controls management has in
place to prevent and detect fraud;
challenging the assumptions and judgements made by management in making its
significant accounting estimates;
utilising valuations experts in our testing of share-based payment charges and the
discount rate within impairment models;
identifying and testing journal entries, any large or unusual journal entries recorded
inthe general ledger of the parent company and full-scope component and other
adjustments made in the preparation of the Group and parent company financial
statements; and assessing the extent of compliance with certain significant laws
andregulations that may have an effect on the determination of the accounts and
disclosures in the financial statements; and
confirming that the Group and parent company’s management has not identified any
matters of non-compliance with laws and regulations or fraud.
In addition, we completed audit procedures to conclude on the compliance of disclosures
in the Annual Report with applicable financial reporting requirements.
These audit procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial
statements were free from fraud or error. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement
due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error and detecting
irregularities that result from fraud is inherently more difficult than detecting those that
result from error, as fraud may involve collusion, deliberate concealment, forgery or
intentional misrepresentations. Also, the further removed non-compliance with laws and
regulations is from events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less
likely we would become aware of it.

engagement team’s:
understanding of and practical experience with audit engagements of a similar
natureand complexity, through appropriate training and participation; and
knowledge of the industry in which the Group operates.
We communicated relevant laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all
engagement team members, including internal specialists, and remained alert to any
indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.
This included the key audit matters as described above.
No instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations or fraud were communicated
to the engagement team.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located
on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities.
This description forms part of our Auditor’s Report.
Other matters which we are required to address
We were appointed by the Board on 26 November 2025 to audit the financial statements
forthe year ending 31 December 2025. Our total uninterrupted period of engagement is
twoyears, covering the years ended 31 December 2024 to 31 December 2025.
The non-audit services prohibited by the FRC’s Ethical Standard were not provided to the
Group or the parent company and we remain independent of the Group and the parent
company in conducting our audit. Our audit opinion is consistent with the additional report
to the Audit and Risk Committee.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Company’s members, as a body, in accordance with
Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so
that we might state to the Company’s members those matters we are required to state to
them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law,
we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the

A Share capital reorganisation and reduction
On 23 May 2024, Raspberry Pi Holdings plc acquired Raspberry Pi Ltd in a share-for-share exchange valued at $288.1 million. A shareholder resolution reduced the share capital to its
nominal value, increasing distributable earnings by $287.3 million. Previous share capital and $66.2 million of share premium were derecognised and recorded in merger reserve.
B London Stock Exchange listing
On 11 June 2024, Raspberry Pi Holdings plc listed on the London Stock Exchange, issuing 11.2 million shares at £2.80 each. Net proceeds of $32.4 million after costs of $7.6 million were
deducted from equity.
C VAT recovered on IPO-related share issuance costs
In 2025, the Group recognised $1.4 million of VAT on 2024 listing costs as recoverable following the VAT registration of the parent company. As the original costs were charged to share
premium, the recoverable amount has been credited to the share premium account.

Consolidated statement of cash flows
For the year ended 31December 2025
99 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
1 General information
Raspberry Pi Holdings plc (the “Company”) is a public limited company incorporated in
England and Wales. The Company’s registered office is at 194 Cambridge Science Park,
Milton Road, Cambridge, England CB4 0AB, and the company number is 15557387.
2 Basis of presentation and accounting policies
Explained below are the key accounting policies of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc and all its
subsidiaries (the “Group”).
2.1 Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with UK-adopted
International Accounting Standards (“IAS”), with International Financial Reporting Standards
(“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and with the
requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the “Act”).
The consolidated financial statements of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc comprise the results of
Raspberry Pi Holdings plc, Raspberry Pi Ltd, Raspberry Pi North America Inc, Raspberry Pi
Ireland Ltd and the Raspberry Pi Employee Benefit Trust (the “Group”).
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost
convention unless otherwise stated. The Group’s presentation currency is US Dollars,
rounded to the nearest point million. Since all material subsidiaries have US Dollars as
their functional currency, there is no foreign exchange upon consolidation and hence
no cumulative translation reserve.
The standalone entity, Raspberry Pi Holdings plc, prepares its individual financial
statements in accordance with FRS 101 “Reduced Disclosure Framework” (“FRS 101”) and
with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. This is the Company’s first year applying
FRS 101, having previously prepared its financial statements under Financial Reporting
Standard 102 (“FRS 102”). The transition required no adjustments to previously reported
amounts. Comparatives are presented on an FRS 101 basis and certain line items have
been re-presented to reflect FRS 101 presentation requirements. The transition has had
no material impact on the financial statements, given the substantial alignment of FRS102
and FRS101 for a non‑trading parent.
2.2 Capital reorganisation
On 23 May 2024 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc acquired the entire shareholding of
Raspberry Pi Ltd for $288.1 million by way of a share-for-share exchange agreement.
This did not constitute a business combination under IFRS 3 “Business Combinations”
as both entities were under common control and Raspberry Pi Holdings plc as the listing
vehicle did not constitute a business as defined by IFRS 3.
No changes were made to the underlying book values of Raspberry Pi Ltd and the Group’s
reserves were adjusted to reflect the statutory share capital of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc,
with difference recorded in a merger reserve.
2.3 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of Raspberry Pi
Holdings plc (the “Company”) and its subsidiary undertakings. Subsidiaries are entities over
which the Group has control. Control is achieved when the Group is exposed, or has rights,
to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those
returns through its power over the investee. All intra-group assets and liabilities, equity,
income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between members of the Group
are eliminated in full on consolidation.
Notes to the consolidated financial statements
For the year ended 31December 2025
100 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
2 Basis of presentation and accounting policies continued
2.4 Going concern
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis,
assuming the Group can meet its liabilities as they fall due. This assessment is supported
by access to the Revolving Credit Facility (“RCF”), and strong relationships with key
customers and suppliers.
Profitability and financial position: The Group reported a profit of $21.7 million for
the year. Net current assets were $172.8 million, and net current financial assets
totalled $33.1 million.
Extension of Revolving Credit Facility: On 5 March 2025, the RCF was extended, increasing
available funds to $80.0 million (2024: $40.0 million) and extending the term to 4 March
2029 (2024: 24 April 2027). The facility remains undrawn.
Liquidity and cash flow forecasts: The Board’s cash flow forecasts and projections confirm
the Group can operate within its cash and committed facilities for the period to 30 April 2027.
Available liquidity, including both cash and committed facilities, has been considered in
this assessment. The Directors have deemed this period to be appropriate for the going
concern assessment. No plausible events or conditions beyond the assessment period
that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern have
been identified.
Sensitivity analysis and stress testing: Sensitivities applied to forecasts include a 50%
to 75% reduction in higher density (8GB to 16 GB) LPDDR4 SBC and Compute Module
products with no mitigations other than executive variable pay applied. Even under this
scenario, the Group expects to meet its funding needs for 2026 and 2027, confirming its
ability to continue operations.
Reverse stress testing: A reverse stress test modelled the sales decline required to exhaust
liquidity and breach banking covenants. This scenario was deemed highly unlikely.
Conclusion: Based on these considerations, the Board concludes the Group can operate
within its committed facilities and cash resources for the foreseeable future. Accordingly,
the Directors have adopted the going concern basis in preparing the consolidated
financial statements.
2.5 Critical accounting judgements and estimates
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, critical judgements in the application
of accounting policies can have a significant effect on the financial results. Any changes in
critical estimates and assumptions made could materially impact the amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenue and expenses reported next year as actual amounts and results could
differ from those estimates or those estimates could change in future.
2.5.1 Critical judgement: Capitalisation of internal and external development costs
We prioritise in-house development with a small, highly skilled engineering team, releasing
new core hardware every three to four years. During the year, our investment included the
finalisation of the Raspberry Pi 500+, the ongoing development of Raspberry Pi 6 and
related semiconductor products and further microcontroller variants.
The Group exercises significant judgement in determining whether internal and external
development costs for pipeline products meet the capitalisation criteria within IAS 38
“Intangible Assets”. Costs are capitalised only when they are directly attributable and reliably
measurable, and relate to future new products that are considered technically feasible and
commercially viable and supported by the necessary skilled resources and internal
commitment to completion. Forecasted profit margins must exceed capitalised costs.
Management makes judgements when these capitalisation criteria are met and continue
to be met for active pipeline development projects. The costs associated with the Group’s
efforts to develop new products are made up of directly attributable internal employee costs
for those working on development, costs of external materials and services consumed in
development and amortisation of licences (software or designs) used directly in
development as per below.

2 Basis of presentation and accounting policies continued
2.5 Critical accounting judgements and estimates continued
2.5.1 Critical judgement: Capitalisation of internal and external development costs
continued
Overall R&D investment has decreased, with total costs falling from $39.6 million in 2024 to
$38.7 million in 2025. Capitalisation of R&D costs in 2025 is 53% of total costs capitalised
(2024: 67%). The value of costs being capitalised exceeds amortisation by $12.4 million
(2024: $19.2 million).
All costs associated with the research phase of projects are expensed as incurred.
Any development costs relating to maintaining and fixing bugs in the software are also
expensed as incurred. Capitalised employee costs of engineers exclude any share-based
payments and termination payments as they are not considered directly attributable to the
development projects.
2.5.2 Critical judgement: Identification of cash-generating units ("CGUs") for impairment
testing of pipeline development costs
Identifying CGUs is a critical step in the impairment review and can have a significant
impact on its results. The objective of identifying CGUs is to identify the smallest identifiable
group of assets that generates largely independent cash inflows. CGUs are identified at the
lowest level to minimise the possibility that impairments of one asset or group will be
masked by a high‑performing asset.
The Group has two main CGUs: Pi 5 and semiconductors. The Group has assessed that
projects within each CGU reflect significant interdependencies, where designs and outputs
are shared and integrated, making individual cash flows inseparable without arbitrary
assumptions. The recoverability of intangible assets arising from pipeline development
activities is materially all part of the semiconductor CGU. The recoverable amount of the
semiconductor CGU is assessed based on the collective earnings of all products in the
CGU. The remaining products, including cameras and other accessories, do not share the
same level of interdependency and are assessed individually for impairment purposes.
2.5.3 Critical estimate: Useful economic lives ("UEL") of intangible assets
The Group determines the UEL of intangible assets at initial recognition and reviews them
at each reporting date. During the year, the useful life of on-market semiconductors was
revised from six to eight years based on updated assessments of expected future use
and economic benefits. As a result, the annual amortisation charge decreased by
$1.4 million. The historical cost remains unchanged and the remaining cost is now
spread over a longer period.
2.5.4 Critical estimate: Net realisable value of inventory
The valuation of inventory is a significant area of estimation uncertainty for the Group due
to the rapid pace of technological advancements and the risk of product obsolescence
inherent in the computer industry. Inventory is measured at the lower of cost and net
realisable value, which requires significant management judgement and estimation.
In determining net realisable value, the Group evaluates several factors, including market
demand and pricing trends, assessing the likelihood of future sales and the impact of
declining prices on older inventory. Technological obsolescence is also considered, with
management assessing whether inventory remains relevant in light of new product
launches and advancements. Additionally, expected selling costs, such as promotional
discounts or clearance pricing, are factored into the valuation.
The Group reviews inventory balances on a regular basis, taking into account recent sales trends,
the ageing of inventory, and the condition of items, including damaged, slow-moving or obsolete
stock. Future sales projections over a three-year period, based on management-prepared
financial budgets, are used to support these assessments. For the year ended 31 December
2025, the total inventory provision was $6.6 million (2024: $6.2 million). Given the inherent
uncertainties, changes in market conditions, technological developments, or consumer
preferences could materially impact the carrying value of inventory.

102 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
2 Basis of presentation and accounting policies continued
2.5 Critical accounting judgements and estimates continued
2.5.5 Critical estimate: Taxation
Accounting for taxation requires significant judgement in determining taxable profit, tax
bases, and the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities. Key estimates include
interpreting complex tax regulations, assessing potential challenges from tax authorities,
and evaluating the recognition of Research and Development Expenditure Credit (“RDEC”)
claims. Determining the appropriate RDEC claim involves significant judgement in identifying
qualifying R&D activities and expenditures. Uncertainties in these areas can lead to variations
between estimated and actual credits received. The Group maintains detailed records of
R&D activities and consults with external tax advisers to ensure compliance with legislation.
Additionally, changes in facts and circumstances between the preparation of these
accounts and the final tax submission, expected in approximately nine months, may impact
the final tax position. For the year ended 31 December 2025, the Group is eligible to claim
the benefit of the patent box regime on income generated from the sale of products that
incorporate technology for which the Group received a patent in 2025. Judgement is
required to determine the income and costs related to the eligible income. The risk of error
has been mitigated through the use of external experts with detailed knowledge of the
patent box regime. Any changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof could materially affect
future amounts recognised. Whilst there are a variety of possible outcomes management
believes that it is reasonably plausible that the actual tax claims submitted could vary to the
accounting estimate by approximately $1.5 million in any accounting period.
2.6 Critical accounting judgements and estimates (relating to the IPO)
In the prior year, which included the Group’s IPO, several non-recurring accounting
judgements were required. For 2025, we have retained only those judgements that remain
relevant to understanding the 2024 comparative information.
2.6.1 Critical judgement: Determination of the grant date share price and option life for
IPO share awards
On 11 June 2024, employee share awards were approved and finalised prior to the
Company’s Admission to the London Stock Exchange. IFRS2 requires that the fair value of
share-based payments is measured at the grant date. Management determined the offer
price of £2.80 ($3.56) as the appropriate share price for valuation at that date. The grant
date is defined under IFRS2 as the date when both the Company and participants have a
mutual understanding of the key terms of the award, which was confirmed to employees
prior to Admission.
The fair value of the IPO awards was therefore measured using this offer price. Subsequent
increases in share price would have significantly changed the valuation if a later date were
used. The resulting IFRS2 charge is recognised over the three-year vesting period.
Management also estimates the expected option life, applying an average of five years
based on benchmarking and employee attrition assumptions.
For subsequent share awards, the same valuation approach is applied, using the opening
share price on the day of grant as the reference for determining fair value.
2.6.2 Critical judgement: Classification of transaction costs associated with the issue
of shares
The Group incurred $10.3 million in costs related to the IPO, with $7.6 million deducted from
share premium, and $2.9 million expensed as non-recurring administrative costs. Costs
were classified based on whether they directly related to new share issuance of the broader
listing process. Directly attributable costs, such as underwriting, brokerage and advisory
fees, were deducted from equity, while expenses for wider listing requirements, such as
corporate finance and costs of legal support, were expensed.
At the time the costs were incurred, only a limited recovery of input VAT was available, so
the full expense was charged to share premium. During 2025, it was possible to reclaim
$1.4 million of VAT from HMRC. As the original costs were charged to share premium, the
amounts recoverable were also accounted for as an increase in share premium.

2.7 Alternative performance measures ("APMs")
Alternative performance measures (“APMs”), which are used in these financial statements,
are also used by the Board and management for planning and reporting. These measures
are also used in discussions with the investors. APMs are not displayed with more
prominence, emphasis or authority than IFRS measures.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure comprising operating profit adding back
amortisation and depreciation, share-based payment charges and non-recurring items.
Adjusted operating profit is a non-IFRS measure comprising operating profit adding back
share-based payment charges and non-recurring items.
Adjusted research and development expense is a non-IFRS measure comprising research
and development expense adjusted for amortisation, share-based payment charges and
non-recurring items. Share-based payments are excluded as they are paid for by
shareholders’ dilution and the charges are not comparable due to fluctuations around the
listing process.
Adjusted administrative expense is a non-IFRS measure comprising administrative
expenses adjusted for depreciation, share-based payment charges and non-recurring items.
Share-based payments are excluded as they are paid for by shareholders’ dilution and the
charges are not comparable due to fluctuations around the listing process.
Non-recurring items are presented whenever significant expenses are incurred or income is
received because of events considered to be outside the normal course of business, where
the unusual nature and expected infrequency merit separate presentation to assist
comparisons with previous years.
To arrive at adjusted results, certain adjustments are made for normalised and non-
recurring items that are individually significant, and which could, if included, distort the
understanding of the performance of the year and the comparability between periods.
2.8 Accounting policies and new and amended accounting standards
The set of consolidated financial information has been prepared using accounting policies
consistent with those in Raspberry Pi Holdings plc in 2024 except for the following standards,
amendments and interpretations which have been adopted from 1 January 2025.
New or revised standards or interpretations
From 1 January 2025, Amendments to IAS 21 “Lack of Exchangeability” became effective
for the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
The amendments introduce requirements for assessing currency exchangeability and
estimating a spot exchange rate when observable rates are unavailable.
Management assessed all currencies in which the Group transacts and concluded that no
lack of exchangeability existed during the year. Accordingly, the amendments had no
material impact on the Group’s financial statements.
Standards, amendments and interpretations not yet effective and not early adopted
At the date of authorisation of these consolidated financial statements, several new,
but not yet effective, standards and amendments to existing standards, and interpretations
have been published by the IASB or IFRIC. None of these standards or amendments to
existing standards have been adopted early by the Group and no interpretations have been
issued that are applicable and need to be taken into consideration by the Group at either
reporting date.
The Group has not early adopted amendments to IFRS 9 relating to derecognition of certain
financial assets and liabilities and assessment of contractual cash flows characteristics.
The Group is assessing the potential impact of these amendments which will be applied
from 1 January 2026.
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, which replaces IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial
Statements”. Although IFRS 18 includes many of the requirements of IAS 1, it introduces
new requirements to better structure financial statements and to provide more detailed and
useful information to investors.
IFRS 18 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027, with
earlier application permitted. IFRS 18 will be applied retrospectively with specific
transitional provisions.
The Group is currently working to identify all of the impacts that IFRS 18 will have on the
primary financial statements and notes to the financial statements.
Other new standards, amendments and interpretations not adopted in the current year have
not been disclosed as they are not expected to have a material impact on the Group’s
consolidated financial statements.

Included within Americas region is $69.0 million (2024: $44.2 million) of revenue which
is attributable to the United States of America, representing the Group’s largest end market
by revenue.
Product revenues are recognised at the point in time when single board computers, compute
modules, accessories or semiconductors are delivered to Approved Resellers or OEMs,
establishing an enforceable right to payment. Raspberry Pi generates revenue from selling
individual components, including the RP2040 microcontroller, RP1 I/O controller and memory
chips, primarily to OEMs and for manufacturing by licensees, which also earns royalties.
Royalties are earned per unit on products organised for manufacture or sale through licensing
of designs and trademarks. Revenue is recognised on an accruals basis in accordance with the
agreement when the subsequent sale or usage (point of manufacture) event occurs, in line
with the IFRS 15 royalty exemption from estimating variable consideration.
The Group generated $83.2 million or 26% (2024: $69.5 million or 27%) of revenues from a
major electronic component distributor. Sales to the contract manufacturer accounted for
$18.8 million or 6% of total revenues (2024: $36.9 million or 14%). The Group operates as a
single segment, in accordance with IFRS 8 “Operating Segments”, aligned with its primary
activity. The data utilised by the Group’s Chief Operating Decision Makers for resource
allocation and performance evaluation is provided on a consolidated basis and therefore
no segment analysis is included. All material non-current assets are located in the

Non-recurring items are presented whenever significant expenses are incurred or income
is received because of events considered to be outside the normal course of business,
where the unusual nature and expected infrequency merits separate presentation to assist
comparisons with previous years. For the year ended 31 December 2024, non-recurring
costs consisted of IPO‑related costs of $2.9 million. No such costs were incurred in 2025.

9 Taxation charge continued
In 2025, the total effective tax rate was 18.1%, which is lower than the underlying rate of
25%. The difference from the statutory rate of 25% is due to four factors. The relief for
share-based payments differs for accounting and tax purposes, and that resulted in an
increase in the effective tax rate by 6.1%. There were three factors reducing the effective
tax rate. Changes in estimates for prior year taxation resulted in a net reduction of 5.7%.
For 2023 there was some uncertainty of treatment for an item in the tax return and a
provision was made accordingly. In 2025, third party, expert advice was received confirming
the technical position taken, such that the provision was no longer necessary. In 2025 a
patent was granted, allowing the Group to claim certain tax reliefs, reducing the effective
rate by 5.7%. Lastly, there was a reduction of 1.9% owing to foreign exchange differences.
In 2024 effective tax rate was 28.2%, higher than the underlying 25%, which was mainly due
to $2.9 million in non-recurring IPO-related costs, which were largely non-deductible for
tax purposes.
10 Earnings per share ("EPS")
Basic EPS: Profit for the period attributable to owners divided by the weighted average
number of ordinary shares in issue, excluding unvested shares held by the Employee Benefit
Trust, unless specifically allocated or cancelled.
Diluted EPS: Adjusts the weighted average number of shares to include all potentially
dilutive shares, such as share options.
Adjusted EPS: Is a non-IFRS alternative performance measure which adjusts basic EPS and
diluted EPS for the non-recurring items and share-based payments applied in computing
adjusted EBITDA.

To maintain market leadership and drive growth, we develop next generation technology
platforms that embody our brand values of performance, price, quality and ease of use.
New core hardware is released every three to four years, with software and documentation
support setting Raspberry Pi apart from competitors.
We prioritise in-house development with a skilled engineering team of 67 (2024: 66),
focused on successors to Raspberry Pi 5, semiconductor chips, new computer boards and
accessories. Internal and external development costs are capitalised when the criteria
outlined in critical accounting judgement Note 2.5.1 are met.
On-market development is amortised from its market launch date over a life of three years
for accessories, four years for SBCs, and eight years for microcontrollers. The useful
economic life of microcontrollers was extended from six years as described in Note 2.5.3.
Impairment testing is performed only when an internal or external impairment trigger
is identified.
Pipeline development in progress is not amortised but instead tested annually for impairment.
Historically, most capitalised projects have been commercialised, at which point they are
transferred to on-market projects and thereafter amortised as explained above.
The other acquired intangibles category primarily relates to licences but also includes any
externally acquired intangible assets not already captured in the above categories. Licences,
particularly those related to technical designs, are amortised over the length of the licence.
Impairment testing
Impairment testing is performed at the CGU level in line with IAS 36, and as explained in the
critical estimate on CGU determination in Note 2.5.2.
Management has determined that the assets associated with the Pi 5 product group and
the semiconductor product group each constitute individual CGUs representing the lowest
level at which impairment can be assessed.
The projected cash flows arising from the CGUs are forecast over the expected product
demand lifecycle, which may extend up to 20 years from the launch date, and which may
exceed the assets' estimated useful economic life ("UEL") of three to eight years. Beyond the
period of peak performance, cash flows are projected on a declining basis of up to 30% per
annum until management considers the horizon to be reasonable. This is consistent with
the critical estimate on CGU determination outlined in Note 2.5.2.
On-market developments were assessed for the following impairment triggers:
External impairment triggers: Market decline, economic changes, increased competition,
technological obsolescence, interest rate shifts, and legal or political factors.
Internal impairment triggers: Underperformance, asset utilisation changes, physical
damage, restructuring, reduced useful life, and licensing or contractual issues.
For the year ended 31 December 2025, an impairment trigger was identified for the Pi 5
CGU due to current and increasing memory prices, which began rising in the second half of
2025. Accordingly, management performed an impairment assessment of the CGU. No
other impairment triggers were identified. The assessment was performed solely in
response to memory price increases.
As development projects must undertake a mandatory impairment test, this is performed
at the CGU level as explained in the critical estimate on CGU determination in Note 2.5.2.
Additionally, various other/accessory items are evaluated at the project unit item level, as
these products are generally less dependent on core technology capabilities than the core
development platforms. No impairment indicator was identified for these products.

Semiconductor CGU
In accordance with IAS 36, impairment testing for projects under development includes
estimated future cash outflows required for completion, even if not yet capitalised – an
exception to the general principle. Cash flows have been projected using a three-year
forecast, being the period for which detailed projections are available. Cash flows are
initially projected on a growth basis before declining at up to 30% per annum once peak
performance has been reached, until management considers the horizon to be reasonable.
The total projection period therefore extends beyond five years in aggregate. Cash flows are
projected based on expected revenue and cost patterns for the products. In the case of
semiconductors developed for use in future products, management has based its forecasts
on the market prices of equivalent products and projected manufacturing costs based on
the past performance of similar products and management's expectations for the future.
A discount rate of 17.3% (2024: 15.7%) has been applied in determining the present value
of the cash flows anticipated. The discount rate is a pre-tax rate which reflects any specific
risks relating to the relevant products. An asset-specific rate is not available directly from
the market, and therefore the discount rate has been estimated to reflect, as far as possible,
a market assessment of the time value of money. The assessment indicated significant
headroom and no impairment has been recognised. Management does not consider that
any reasonably possible change, or combination of changes, in key assumptions including
discount rates, cash flow projections, and demand decline rates, would result in an impairment.
The impact of external risks, including supply chain uncertainties and market fluctuations,
has been considered. The assumptions used align with similar product lifecycles, though
uncertainties related to climate change risks, enhancement-related cash flows, and
extended forecast periods require ongoing assessment. Given the robust development
portfolio, the semiconductor CGU remains well positioned for future growth. However, as
at the date of these financial statements, there remains a high level of uncertainty regarding
long-term market conditions, technological advancements and regulatory changes.
The Group continues to monitor potential risks in supply chain logistics, intellectual property
regulations and environmental compliance, ensuring that future developments align with
the Group’s strategic objectives and IAS 36 requirements.
Pi 5 CGU
An impairment assessment was performed for the Pi 5 CGU due to an identified trigger
from rising memory prices, which was not present in 2024. Cash flows were based on
forecasts over a three-year budget period, with the model extending to a five-year horizon.
Beyond the budget period, future pipeline development has been modelled based on
expected sales over the product lifecycle, with cash flows projected on a declining basis of
up to 30% beyond the period of peak revenues. Budgeted gross profit has been used, with
revenue projections reflecting management's expectations for unit sales volumes and ASP.
A pre-tax discount rate of 17.3% has been applied, reflecting the time value of money and
CGU-specific risks. While rising memory prices present an identified risk, the Group increased
its ASP in line with cost growth, maintaining gross profit per board at historic levels.
Management's assessment considered the interdependencies between memory costs, unit
sales volumes and margin when stress-testing key assumptions. Management does not
consider that any reasonably possible change, or combination of changes, in key
assumptions would result in an impairment. Following the assessment, management
concluded that the recoverable amount of the Pi 5 CGU exceeded its carrying amount
and no impairment was recognised.

ROU assets relate to the Group’s property leases over its office building and its warehouse
in Suffolk. Leases include variable payments and termination or extension options.
During the year, the Group assigned its former office lease which was previously impaired
when it was vacated. The ROU asset, lease liability, and dilapidation provision were
derecognised, resulting in a $0.3 million gain, net of exit costs.
The lease on the current office building was also extended, giving rise to a lease
modification and remeasurement of the ROU and corresponding lease liability.
ROU assets are depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term
on a straight-line basis.
Details in respect of the Group’s lease liabilities are disclosed in Note 21.

amortised over a period of five years. As at 31 December 2025, $0.7 million (2024: $0.7 million),
which is the portion of the prepayment that will be amortised within the next year, is
classified as a current asset, while the remaining portion of $1.3 million (2024: $2.0 million)
is classified as non-current.

Inventories are stated net of provisions for write-downs to net realisable value, which are
recognised as an expense in profit or loss. The movements in inventories presented in the
cash flow statement reflect the net change in inventory balances after these provisions, net
of the fair value adjustment in relation to the extended payable as discussed in Note 18.
Accordingly, separate presentation of write-downs as non-cash adjustments in the
reconciliation of profit to cash flows is not considered necessary.
During the year, $235.5 million (2024: $191.8 million) of inventories were charged as cost
of sales. Write-downs of inventories to net realisable value amounted to $1.5 million
(2024: $1.5 million). These were recognised as an expense during the year ended
31 December 2025 and included in cost of goods sold. The Group recorded an amount
of $1.1 million (2024: $4.2 million) as income resulting from reversal of inventory write-
downs that were previously recognised. The income was recognised within cost of sales
to reverse the original expense. The remaining provision within inventories of $6.6 million
(2024: $6.2 million) is for anticipated future obsolescence on specific slow-moving units.
As at 31 December 2025, $5.3 million (2024: $3.5 million) of inventories are committed
and have been purchased back after the year end as part of repurchase liabilities described
in Note 18.

The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses
which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables. Management has
assessed the expected credit losses on trade receivables and determined that no loss
allowance is required in 2025 (2024: $nil). Accordingly, no movement in the expected credit
loss provision has been recognised in administrative expenses in the Consolidated
Statement of Comprehensive Income. In 2025, Raspberry Pi Holdings plc was registered for
VAT to account for VAT on intercompany services. This allowed a reclaim of VAT on some
of the costs incurred as part of the IPO. As the registration and reclaim of VAT occurred
towards the end of 2025 the amount reclaimed was still outstanding at the year end but
was repaid by HMRC in February 2026.

Owing to its size, the Group has to pay all of its expected corporation tax liability for the
financial year, during the calendar year. In calculating and paying this corporation tax, no
account can be taken of the Research and Development Expenditure Credit (“RDEC”) that is
claimed in the tax return and paid out by HMRC. This means that at the year end there is
normally a current tax receivable. In 2025, the 2024 tax returns were submitted earlier than
in previous years, meaning that RDEC for both 2023 and 2024 were received during 2025,
reducing the net receivable at the end of 2025 compared to 2024.

Money market deposits are highly liquid and accessible on demand within 24 hours, and
carry minimal risk of value changes due to interest fluctuations, ensuring certain returns of
investment. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents equals their carrying amount when
repayable on demand. The Group’s cash and cash equivalents are held with Barclays Bank
UK PLC with credit ratings of A-1 (S&P), P-1 (Moody’s), and F1 (Fitch); and in a money
market fund managed by JP Morgan Chase & Co with credit ratings of A-1 (S&P), P-1

In 2024, the Group had extended payment terms of nine to twelve months with two
electronic component suppliers. Supplier invoices totalling $52.2 million were discounted to
$51.0 million with reference to observable market interest rates. These payables remained
classified within the normal operating cycle.
As at 31 December 2025, there is no outstanding balance under these extended term
agreements and no such arrangements are still in place. All trade payables are now subject
to standard 30 to 45-day terms and are considered by management to approximate to their
fair value.
Repurchase liabilities relate to components sold to contract manufacturers for producing
finished products the Group has committed to buy. When the Group sells components and
orders the assembly of a single board computer using those components, the cash from
the sale is deferred as a repurchase liability. This liability is not released until the contract
manufacturer delivers the completed product to the Group.

For RDEC related to incurred costs i.e. expenditure during the year that is not capitalised,
the credit is recognised in the profit and loss as a reduction in R&D expenses, offsetting the
underlying costs that the RDEC incentives are intended to compensate.
For RDEC attributable to costs capitalised as pipeline development projects within
intangible assets, the credit is initially recorded as deferred income – RDEC on the balance
sheet (a non-current liability). It is subsequently recognised in profit and loss over the
period necessary to match the amortisation of the relevant project, thereby compensating
for the associated intended costs as a reduction in R&D expenses.
The RDEC is claimed in conjunction with our tax advisers each year; there are no
substantive conditions or other contingencies attaching to the claim, other than complying
with the RDEC legislation and formal completion of the approvals process.

22 Financial commitments
In July 2022, the Group entered into a commitment to purchase other licences for
intellectual property and related tools over the period to July 2025. This arrangement was
amended in January 2025 extending the commitment to January 2027. As at 31 December
2025, the value of the commitment was $7.8 million (2024: $3.7 million). Subsequent to the
year end, $1.8 million of this commitment was settled in January 2026.
To ensure the uninterrupted supply of essential components to meet projected demand, the
Group has established long-term supply agreements and placed substantial orders with key
suppliers and distributors. As both the supplier (delivery) and the Group (payment once
delivered) have obligations outstanding, they are not recognised as liabilities on the balance
sheet. However, they are disclosed as significant contractual obligations to provide clarity on
the financial commitments.
As of 31 December 2025, these agreements have committed to component purchases
over a pre-defined schedule to December 2028 and are valued at $265.7 million
(2024: $333.0 million). The long-term supply agreement relating to these commitments
was subsequently revised as disclosed in Note 32.
In November 2025, communication was made to applicable employees on the intention
to issue new Restricted Share Units, subject to Board approval, within an open period
for employee share dealing purposes in calendar year 2026.
In December 2025, the Group had committed to pay for equipment for use by its contract
manufacturer in the production of Raspberry Pi products. This commitment was made
through a purchase order amounting $1.3 million. The arrangement is similar in nature to
the prepaid manufacturing cost disclosed in Note 14. The related cash outflow occurred
after the reporting period.

23 Forward foreign exchange contracts
During the year, the Group entered into new forward foreign exchange contracts to manage
short-term currency exposures arising from operational activities. These contracts are used
primarily to reduce the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on forecasted transactions,
receivables and payables denominated in GBP. Forward contracts that do not meet the
criteria for hedge accounting under IFRS 9 are classified as financial instruments at fair
value through profit or loss. As such, they are recognised on the balance sheet as financial
assets or liabilities at fair value, with changes in fair value recognised immediately in
the income statement within administrative expenses, reflecting their connection to
operational activities.
As at 31 December 2025, the aggregate contract amount of forward contracts not
designated as hedging instruments was £21.0 million. Realised gains for contracts that
matured in the year were immaterial, while unrealised fair value gains for outstanding
contracts was $0.2 million which was recognised in the Consolidated Statement of
Comprehensive Income within administrative expenses.
These contracts expose the Group to foreign currency risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.
The Group manages these risks in accordance with its financial risk management policies
as disclosed in Note 24.
24 Financial instruments and financial risk management
All of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities, with the exception of the forward exchange
contracts which are measured at FVTPL, were non-derivative and measured at amortised
cost in the current and comparative period comprising cash and cash equivalents, trade
receivables, trade payables, and both short-term and long-term licence payables.
The Board regulates the use of free-standing derivatives (such as forward foreign exchange
contracts) in accordance with established risk management strategies.
The Group is exposed to currency, liquidity and credit risks arising from its financial
instruments. The Group’s risk management policies are designed to mitigate potential
adverse impacts on financial performance. The key risks are addressed as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents

Financial asset measured at FVTPL
0.2
Currency risk: The Group presents its consolidated financial statements in US Dollars, being the
currency that predominantly influences the sales prices; nonetheless, operations are primarily
UK based, which is where the majority of employees work and activities occur. Consequently,
the Group is exposed to foreign currency risk arising from exchange rate movements mainly
between US Dollar, British Pound Sterling and Euro. These movements affect the value of
transactions (e.g. UK payroll) and the translation of comparative financial results.
In accordance with IFRS 7, the Group is required to present a sensitivity analysis illustrating
hypothetical changes in foreign exchange rates on profit or loss and shareholders’ equity.
A 10% strengthening of the US Dollar would result in an FX gain of $0.4 million
(2024: $0.5 million).
A 10% weakening of the US Dollar would result in an FX loss of $0.3 million
(2024: $0.4 million).
The impact on profit and loss and shareholders’ equity would be identical as no currency
translation reserve or difference arises on consolidation as all subsidiaries share a US Dollar
functional currency.
Interest rate risk: The Group has access to an RCF which remained undrawn at the
reporting date and therefore did not give rise to interest expense. The Group does not have
any external borrowings outside of property leases that contain fixed rates of interest in the
current or comparative periods, and therefore interest rate risk is not considered material.
Management regularly reviews forecast debt, cash and cash equivalents and interest rates
to monitor this risk and would consider hedging instruments if the perceived risk was
to increase.
24.2 Credit risk analysis
Exposure to credit risk emerges primarily through trade receivables of $52.6 million
(2024: $31.0 million) for providing credit to customers in the normal course of business.
In order to minimise credit risk, the Group has policies to check that potential customers
are demonstrably creditworthy and this, together with the aggregate financial exposure,
is monitored.
Credit limits are reviewed by the credit controller on a regular basis in conjunction with debt
ageing and collection history. Commercial insurance is also obtained as deemed necessary.
There have been no material instances of actual or expected credit losses during the current
or prior financial years.
The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses which
uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables. Any movement in expected
credit loss provision is included in administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of
Comprehensive Income.

The comparative figure for trade payables for the prior year was updated to correct a
calculation error. The correction does not affect the overall liquidity risk assessment.
The amounts above reflect the contractual undiscounted cash flows, which may differ
to the carrying values of the liabilities at the reporting date.
The Group mitigates this risk by:
maintaining appropriate levels of cash and access to credit facilities;
monitoring forecast and actual cash flows; and
matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.
The Group constantly reviews revenue, purchases, inventory and cash flow forecasts to
ensure that obligations can be met as they arise. Since the Group’s financial assets and
liabilities arise from operations, with the exception of the non-current lease liabilities, they
all have a maturity within the one-year business operating cycle.
The Group does not have any external borrowings in the current or comparative period;
therefore, net debt is positive as net cash being $19.2 million (2024: $39.6 million)
represented by cash and cash equivalents in Note 17 less the lease liabilities in Note 21.
As at 31 December 2025, the Group has access to an $80.0 million undrawn RCF available
until 4 March 2029.
25 Deferred taxation
The principal deferred tax liabilities relate to differences between the tax and accounting
base of intangible assets relating to development costs capitalised. Deferred tax liabilities
associated with intangible assets unwind to offset the tax distortion that would otherwise
occur as the assets are amortised.

Development costs are capitalised and amortised over future periods for accounting profit
but are immediately deductible under section 1308 of the Corporation Tax Act 2009 for
taxable profit. These costs have a tax base of nil, creating a temporary difference between
their carrying amount and tax base. This deferred tax liability (“DTL”) reflects future tax
payable as amortisation occurs, with the full tax deduction claimed upfront. The DTL
unwinds over the asset’s useful life, aligning tax and accounting treatments.
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. It is calculated using
tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting period’s
end and are expected to apply when the timing differences are resolved.
In accordance with IAS 12 rules, all deferred tax balances are presented as long term,
are not discounted and are presented net on the balance sheet to the extent that they
arise with the same tax authority.

193,415,715 ordinary shares of £0.0025 each have been listed for trading on the London
Stock Exchange. During the year, as detailed in Note 27, additional shares were issued
in connection with the vesting and release of share-based awards. 61,610,435. deferred
shares of £0.0025 each were created as part of the share capital reorganisation.
The deferred shares have no voting rights or rights to a dividend. It is intended for the
holders of the deferred shares to transfer them to the Company otherwise than for
valuable consideration pursuant to s659(1) CA 2006 in Q2 2025. They will then be
cancelled pursuant to s662(1)(c).
Share premium account
The share premium account records the amount above the nominal value received for
shares issued, less transaction costs. The listing generated $40.0 million in gross proceeds,
with $7.6 million in costs deducted directly from equity. At the time the costs were incurred,
only a limited recovery of input VAT was available, so the full expense was charged to share
premium. During 2025 it was possible to reclaim $1.4 million of VAT from HMRC. As the
original costs were charged to share premium, the recovery was accounted for as an
increase in share premium. The share premium account is in most circumstances not
immediately available for distribution.
Share-based payment reserve
This reserve represents the cumulative income statement charges for unvested employee
share awards. Once the awards vest this reserve is recycled to retained earnings and the
issue of equity is reflected in share capital, share premium or retained earnings as appropriate.
Merger reserve
As described in Note 2.2, the Group completed a capital reorganisation in 2024. Subsidiary
assets and liabilities were consolidated at book value, and consolidated reserves were
adjusted to reflect the statutory share capital of the Company with the difference recorded
in the merger reserve.
The merger reserve and retained earnings are presented gross on consolidation such that
the Group’s retained earnings are a reasonable measure of the underlying distributable
reserves of the Company on a standalone entity basis as this is considered useful
information for investors.
Retained earnings
This reserve represents the total of all current and prior retained earnings available to
facilitate future shareholder distributions.
27 Share-based payments
All share-based payments are related to employee share schemes and are equity
settled for shares of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc. Equity awards are a key component
of the overall remuneration package, being essential for retaining, motivating and
rewarding key employees.
The Group has four active equity-settled share schemes: market value options, nil-cost
options, Restricted Share Units (“RSU”) and Performance Share Units (“PSU”). In addition,
awards under the Deferred Bonus Plan (“DBP”) relating to 2025 performance will be granted
in 2026.

Deferred Bonus Plan
The Deferred Bonus Plan is available to Executive Directors of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc.
Awards are made in respect of performance in the financial year immediately preceding the
grant and are based on performance against objectives set annually. Incentives are typically
delivered partly in cash and partly in ordinary shares of the Company on a deferred basis.
The share element is usually granted as nil-cost options which vest after a three-year
vesting period. The share-based payment charge is recognised over four years, reflecting
the performance year and the subsequent vesting period. An unvested award will normally
lapse if the Executive Directors leaves employment, unless they leave because of disability
or ill health, a corporate event or are otherwise classified as a good leaver at the Board’s
discretion. Further details are provided in the Directors’ Remuneration Report on page 75.
Share-based awards granted in the year
On 14 May 2025, the Group made additional equity grants comprising Restricted Share
Units (“RSUs”) and Performance Share Units (“PSUs”).
The RSUs vest quarterly over a four-year period, subject to continued employment.
They are not subject to any performance conditions. Each RSU carries an exercise price of
one-quarter of a penny per share. Shares for the RSUs vesting in June and September 2025
were released in the year.
On 19 January 2026, the Company allotted 74,712 ordinary shares to its third-party share
plan administrator to facilitate the settlement of share-based compensation awards that
vested on 31 December 2025. This is a non-adjusting event under IAS 10.
The PSUs are subject to performance conditions based on earnings per share (“EPS”)
growth and relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) compared to the FTSE 250, excluding
companies in the Financial Services, Mining and Extraction, and Investment Trust sectors.
Performance will be assessed over a three-year period, based on the cumulative EPS
achieved over the three financial years. Vesting will occur on a straight-line basis between
threshold and maximum performance targets.
PSUs granted to the Executive Directors of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc are subject to a
post‑vesting holding period of two years.
Further details on the performance conditions are set out in the Directors’ Remuneration
Report on page 75.

Option awards granted upon Admission to the London Stock Exchange
On 11 June 2024 immediately before the IPO, alongside the settlement of legacy share
awards, new awards were granted in the form of market value options and nominal-cost
options over shares of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc.
The market value options have an exercise price equal to the IPO share issue price of £2.80.
The nominal-cost options have a quarter pence nominal exercise price. The awards vest
on the third anniversary of the date of grant, subject to the employee remaining in Group
employment. The awards are not subject to other performance or holding conditions.
The options expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant or upon leaving.
The grant date fair value of the new awards was calculated with assistance from an external
valuation expert using a Black-Scholes model with the following inputs and assumptions:

Key assumptions in calculating the fair value of the awards
Equity schemes granted on 11 June 2024 and 14 May 2025 used a volatility assumption
of 35.0%. This was determined in reference to the midpoint between the mean and median
enterprise value volatilities of a selected peer group of listed technology and software
companies and is consistent with the volatility input applied in the valuation of the market
value option grant issued in June 2024.
An employee attrition rate of 5% was applied in calculating the fair value of the awards,
reflecting management’s expectations of forfeiture based on the post-IPO environment.
Settlement of 2020 LTIP scheme upon listing on the London Stock Exchange
In 2020, the Board approved a Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) and up to the listing date
had awarded 19,480 B ordinary shares to employees. These shares were designed to
participate in the proceeds from an exit, defined as the Company’s sale or a stock exchange
listing. On the sale of Raspberry Pi Ltd to Raspberry Pi Holdings plc in May 2024, the B shares
were exchanged for shares with equivalent rights in Raspberry Pi Holdings plc.
Upon listing on the London Stock Exchange, all outstanding awards vested and settled
by the granting of ordinary shares in Raspberry Pi Holdings plc. When the awards vested
in 2024, the cumulative $3.3 million charged to the income statement since 2020 was
transferred to retained earnings.

28 Material accounting policies
This note provides a list of other potentially material accounting policies adopted in the
preparation of these consolidated financial statements to the extent that they have not
already been disclosed in the notes above. These policies have been consistently applied
to all of the years presented, unless otherwise stated. The financial statements are for the Group
consisting of Raspberry Pi Holdings plc and its subsidiaries as listed in the Company
financial statements.
28.1 Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognised in accordance with IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with
Customers”. Revenue is recognised when control of goods or services is transferred to
the customer, reflecting the consideration expected to be received. The five-step model in
IFRS 15 is applied, except for royalties for the licence of intellectual property as explained
below. Revenue is only recognised if an enforceable right to payment can be demonstrated.
Product revenues: Generated by supplying single board computers (“SBCs”), compute
modules, accessories and semiconductors from our contract manufacturer directly to
Approved Resellers (“ARs”) and original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”). The Group acts
as principal in these direct distribution transactions. Revenues are recognised at the point
in time when physical possession of the product has transferred to the customer, based on
fixed prices per unit. The transfer is evidenced by receipt of an undisputed delivery note, as
the sole performance obligation is satisfied.
Royalties: Earned per unit on products that customers manufacture (e.g. Pi 5) and sell (e.g. Pi 4)
through licensing of designs and trademarks. According to IFRS 15, the sales-based or
usage‑based royalty exception (paragraph B63) applies, as the licence is the predominant
performance obligation. Royalties are recognised on an accruals basis in accordance with
the underlying agreement when the subsequent sale or usage event that triggers the royalty
occurs and are presented net of any amounts collected on behalf of third parties, regardless
of whether the licence is a right to use or right to access.
Component revenues: Recognised at the point in time when physical possession of the
product has transferred to the customer, based on fixed prices per unit, following the
accounting policy for product revenues, unless the Group has made a promise to
repurchase the component.
Sales returns provision: The Group recognises a provision for expected sales returns on
SBCs, which typically include a 12-month warranty under standard sales terms. Returns are
assessed at each reporting date, and if no significant returns are expected, no provision is
recognised. This estimate is periodically reviewed based on emerging trends and historical
data. As there has been no history of material returns, no such provision has been
recognised to date.
Repurchase liabilities: These occur when the Group sells components to the contract
manufacturer and simultaneously raises an order for the manufacture of a finished product
that contains the same component. As the Group will subsequently repurchase the asset,
control has not been transferred, with the contract manufacturer limited in its ability
to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset.
Consequently, in accordance with paragraph B66(b) of IFRS 15, the transaction is treated as
a financing arrangement. The inventory is not derecognised, and instead the cash received
from the contract manufacturer is treated as a short-term financial liability. On repurchase,
the repurchase price which represents the cost of the finished goods including processing
costs incurred by the contract manufacturer, is capitalised as inventory in accordance with
the Group's inventories policy (Note 28.10). No financing component is separately recognised
owing to the immateriality of the time value of money within standard 30-day payment
terms. These costs are recognised in cost of sales upon sale of the finished goods.
Principal versus agent: The Group evaluates the following indicators, among others, when
determining whether it is acting as a principal or agent in the transaction and recording
revenue on a gross or net basis:
(i) The Group is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the product.
(ii) The Group has inventory risk before the product has been transferred to a customer.
(iii) The Group has discretion in establishing the price for the product.
The Group also operates a publishing business, Raspberry Pi Press, which produces
magazines and books, as well as the Raspberry Pi Store in Cambridge, England. All revenue
is recognised at the point in time that the product is transferred to the customer, except
for publishing revenue, which is recognised over the length of the magazine subscription.
Furthermore, the Group applies IFRS 15 practical expedients for significant financing
components and costs to fulfil contracts, as the Group’s sales cycles are generally short
term and do not exceed 12 months.

28.2 Cost of sales
The Group recognises cost of sales at the point at which it recognises revenue as explained
above. Cost of sales predominantly relates to the cost of goods or services purchased from
suppliers and then sold to customers. The cost of sales for products sold by us through our
direct distribution channel is the price we pay for them to be manufactured, plus licence
fees paid to parties whose intellectual property is used in their design. The Group considers
the cost of shipping its products to the customer to be directly associated with generating
revenue and therefore presents these costs (2025: $3.5 million; 2024: $1.9 million) within
cost of sales. The cost of sales for products sold through the licensee channel is the
licence fees paid to parties whose intellectual property is used in these products’ design.
The manufacturing cost of the products sold through the licensee channel is borne by
the licensee.
28.3 Foreign exchange
All material entities have a US Dollar functional currency. The US Dollar primarily influences
both the sales prices for products and services and the cost of associated raw materials
and component parts.
As the Group’s presentational currency is also US Dollars no exchange reserve arises
on consolidation.
Underlying foreign currency transactions (primarily transactions in Sterling) are translated
into US Dollars using daily average exchange rates. Foreign exchange gains and losses
resulting from the settlement of such transactions, and from the translation of
Sterling‑denominated working capital items, are recognised in the Consolidated Statement
of Comprehensive Income.
28.4 Segmental analysis
The Group determines and presents operating segments based on the information
that is provided internally to the Board, which is the Group’s Chief Operating Decision
Maker (“CODM”).
It is the view of the Directors that the Group has a single operating segment, as defined
by IFRS 8 “Operating Segments”, being the manufacture and sale of cost-effective
programmable computing devices.
The CODM makes operating decisions for a single operating unit and operating
performance is assessed as a single operating segment. The information used by
the CODM is consistent with, and prepared on the same basis as, that presented
in the financial statements.
28.5 Current and deferred taxation
The tax expense for the period consists of the tax payable on the current period’s taxable
income, based on applicable income tax rates, adjusted for changes in deferred tax assets
and liabilities due to temporary differences. Current tax receivables and payables are
measured at the expected amount to be recovered from or paid to tax authorities, based
on the annual corporation tax return prepared with our tax advisers, in accordance with
enacted or substantively enacted UK tax rates and legislation.
Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. It is calculated using tax
rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting period’s end and
are expected to apply when the timing differences are resolved. Deferred tax assets are
recognised only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise them.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to do
so, and they relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and liabilities are
similarly offset when there is a legal right to net them, or to realise the asset and settle the
liability simultaneously. Excess tax benefits beyond IFRS 2 charges are recognised in equity.
Current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except when it relates to items
recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the tax is
recognised accordingly in those areas.
The Group applies IFRIC 23 “Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments” when assessing tax
positions where uncertainty exists regarding acceptance by tax authorities. Under IFRIC 23,
tax treatments are evaluated based on whether it is probable that the relevant tax authority
will accept them. If acceptance is not probable, the most likely outcome or expected value
approach is applied to determine the tax position. The Group recognises uncertain tax
positions in current or deferred tax calculations and records provisions where necessary.
Changes in facts or circumstances are monitored, and adjustments are made as required.
The Group’s policy ensures consistent application of IFRIC 23 principles, with judgements
reviewed regularly in consultation with external tax advisers.

28.6 Intangible assets
Externally acquired intangible assets predominantly relate to software licences which
are initially recognised at cost and subsequently amortised over the life of the licence.
All other intangible assets are amortised straight line over a period of three to eight years.
The accounting for capitalised pipeline development projects is considered to contain a
critical judgement upon initial capitalisation of the costs and a critical estimate in determining
the useful lives of the projects once launched. Refer to the critical judgements and
estimates relating to these items in Note 2.5.
Capitalised development costs are amortised over the periods the Group expects to benefit
from selling the products developed. The amortisation expense is included within research
and development expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.
For capitalised pipeline development costs that are not yet complete, these costs are not
amortised but subject to mandatory annual impairment testing in accordance with IAS 36.
28.7 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment (“PPE”) are stated at historical cost less depreciation and
impairment. Depreciation uses the straight-line method, with asset residual values, useful
lives and depreciation methods reviewed periodically. All PPE is depreciated over three
years except for leasehold improvements which are depreciated with reference to the life
of the lease.
The estimated useful lives and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each
reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a
prospective basis.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future
economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. The gain
or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference
between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised
in profit or loss.
28.8 Leases
The Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at inception of the contract.
The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect
to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, except for short-term leases (defined as
leases with a lease term of 12 months or less) and leases of low-value assets (defined as
assets with a value of $5,000 or less when new). For these leases, the Group recognises the
lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease
unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern in which
economic benefits from the leased assets are consumed.
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid
at the commencement date, discounted by its incremental borrowing rate. The lease liability
is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease
liability (using the effective interest method) and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect
the lease. The Group remeasures the lease liability (and makes a corresponding adjustment
to the related right-of-use asset) whenever the lease term or payments are changed.
28.9 Financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes a party to the
contract provisions.
They are initially measured at fair value with subsequent measurement dependent on their
classification as either amortised cost or fair value through profit and loss or other
comprehensive income.
The Group’s financial instruments comprise financial assets and liabilities measured
at amortised cost and derivative financial instruments measured at fair value through
profit or loss.
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand and short-term deposits
maturing in less than three months. For the purposes of the Consolidated Statement of
Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and cash equivalents as defined
above, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
Trade and other receivables are recognised at fair value (which ordinarily reflects the
invoice amount) and carried at amortised cost, less an allowance for expected lifetime
losses as permitted under the simplified approach in IFRS 9.
Trade payables and other payables are not interest bearing and are recognised at fair
value (which ordinarily reflects the invoice amount) and subsequently at amortised cost.
Trade receivables and payables are amounts due from customers or owed to suppliers
in the ordinary course of business. As they are subject to standard payment terms
these balances are considered current and are recognised at their invoice value, being a
reasonable approximation of fair value due to their short-term nature. They are recognised
initially at the invoice amount, unless they contain significant financing components, in
which case they are recognised at fair value. The Group holds the trade receivables with
the objective of collecting the contractual cash flows, and it therefore measures them
subsequently at amortised cost.
Notes to the consolidated financial statements continued
For the year ended 31December 2025
122 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
28 Material accounting policies continued
28.9 Financial instruments continued
Interest-bearing loans and overdrafts are initially recorded at fair value, net of direct issue
costs, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method,
with interest expense recognised over the term of the liabilities. Since the RCF is undrawn,
the arrangement fee cannot be offset against any borrowing and is therefore recognised
within other debtors and prepayments. The arrangement fee is amortised over the term
of the RCF. Although there are currently no external borrowings drawn, the Group has
access to the RCF, necessitating the inclusion of this accounting policy.
The Group’s activities expose it to financial risks from fluctuations in foreign exchange
and interest rates. The Board regulates the use of free-standing derivatives (such as
forward FX contracts) in line with established risk management strategies.
Derivative financial instruments comprise of forward foreign exchange contracts
to manage short-term operational currency exposures, primarily to reduce the effect
of fluctuations in GBP on forecasted transactions, receivables and payables.
Forward foreign exchange contracts are recognised on the Consolidated Statement of
Financial Position at fair value. Forward contracts that do not meet the criteria for hedge
accounting under IFRS 9 are classified as financial instruments at fair value through
profit or loss. Changes in fair value of contracts not qualifying for hedge accounting are
recognised in profit or loss and classified within administrative expenses, reflecting the
operational nature of the contracts.
Fair values are determined using observable market inputs and are classified as Level 2 in
the fair value hierarchy. The Group’s use of forward contracts exposes it to foreign currency,
credit and liquidity risks, which are managed in accordance with the Group’s financial risk
management policies.
Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows
from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows in a
transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial
asset are transferred or in which the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all
of the risks and rewards of ownership and does not retain control of the financial asset.
On derecognition of a financial asset, the difference between the carrying amount of the
asset (or the carrying amount allocated to the portion of the asset that is derecognised)
and the consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any new liability
assumed) is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Any interest in such transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Group
is recognised as a separate asset or liability.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The Group derecognises financial liabilities when the Group’s obligations are discharged
or cancelled or have expired. The difference between the carrying amount of the
financial liability derecognised and the consideration paid and payable is recognised
in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.
28.10 Inventories
Inventories, which comprise components and finished goods for resale, are valued at
the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and
slow‑moving inventories. Cost comprises all costs of purchase and cost of conversion
(excluding borrowing costs). Costs are assigned to individual items of inventory on the
basis of weighted average costs. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the
ordinary course of business less the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
For finished goods acquired under repurchase arrangements with contract manufacturers
(Note 28.1), cost includes the repurchase price paid, which incorporates the cost of conversion.
28.11 Provisions
A provision is recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position when the Group
has a legal or constructive obligation arising from a past event, and it is likely that settling
the obligation will require an outflow of economic benefits.
If the impact is material, the provision is calculated by discounting the anticipated future
cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market views on the time value of money
and, where relevant, risks specific to the liability.
When discounting is applied, the increase in the provision over time is recognised as a
finance cost. If it is virtually certain that an insurer will reimburse part or all of the economic
outflows required to settle a provision, the reimbursement amount is recognised as an
insurance receivable asset and reported separately within other receivables, provided the
receivable amount can be measured reliably.
28.12 Employee benefits
Liabilities for wages, salaries, non-monetary benefits and annual leave expected to
be settled within 12 months are recognised and measured at the expected amounts.
Defined contribution plans are expensed as incurred on an accruals basis.

123 Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Annual Report and Accounts 2025
28 Material accounting policies continued
28.13 Deferred income – RDEC (government grants)
The Research and Development Expenditure Credit (“RDEC”) is accounted for as a
government grant where there is a reasonable assurance that the grant will be received,
and the Group will comply with all attached conditions. The tax credits are initially
recognised once they are receivable on an accruals basis. Whilst IAS 20 “Accounting for
Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance” excludes tax credits from its
scope, so does IAS 12 “Income Taxes” and no other standard either includes it or appears
relevant; therefore, in the absence of any other specific guidance, we follow IAS 20 as it is
considered normal in this scenario.
To the extent that the credits relate to expenses already incurred the income is presented
as a reduction in R&D expenses, offsetting the underlying costs that the RDEC incentives
are intended to compensate.
To the extent that the credits relate to pipeline development costs that have been
capitalised within intangible assets, the income is initially deferred onto the Consolidated
Statement of Financial Position and then subsequently recognised in profit and loss to
match the amortisation of the related costs being compensated. This income is presented
as a reduction in R&D expense within operating profit as the income is taxable.
28.14 Share-based payments
The Group issues equity-settled share-based payments which are fair valued at the grant
date. For awards valued by reference to the Company’s share price, the opening market
price on the grant date is used. Once the grant date fair value has been determined, it is
recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight-line
basis over the vesting period, with appropriate adjustments for forfeitures. Where vesting
periods or other vesting conditions apply, the expense is allocated over the relevant
vesting period based on the best available estimate of the number of share options
expected to vest. The corresponding credit is to the share-based payment reserve.
Upon vesting, amounts recognised in the share-based payment reserve are transferred
to retained earnings.
28.15 Own shares
The Group provides finance to Employee Benefit Trusts to either purchase Company shares
on the open market, or to subscribe for newly issued share capital, to meet the Group’s
obligation to provide shares when employees exercise their options or awards. Costs of
running the Trusts are charged to the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Shares held by the ESOP Trusts are deducted from reserves and presented in equity as an
own share reserve until such time that an employee exercises their award. At the reporting
period, there were 155,226 shares in the Trust at historical cost of approximately $500.
28.16 Dividends
Dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. In the case of final dividends,
this is when approved by the shareholders at the AGM. Interim dividends are recorded
when paid.
29 Alternative performance measures ("APMs")
Adjusted EBITDA (as presented in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income),
adjusted operating profit, adjusted research and development expenses and adjusted
administrative expenses are non-IFRS measures used by the Board and management
to monitor the Group’s performance.

30 Controlling shareholder(s)
Under UK Listing Rule 5.3, a controlling shareholder is any party that, alone or with others,
controls 30% or more of voting rights. No single entity holds a majority stake in the Group
or is considered its ultimate controlling party.
The Raspberry Pi Foundation (the “Foundation”) is a registered charity in England and Wales
(Charity No. 1129409), owns 90,326,121 (46.7%) ordinary shares in the Company through
its wholly owned subsidiary, Raspberry Pi Mid Co Limited (the “Controlling Shareholder”),
and is incorporated in England and Wales (Reg. No. 13603843). The address of both entities
is 37 Hills Road, Cambridge CB2 1NT.
As disclosed to the takeover panel prior to the initial public offering in May 2024, the Group
believes that Ezrah acts in concert with the Foundation. With a combined shareholding of
50.02%, a parallel Relationship Agreement with Ezrah was also executed on 11 June 2024.
As at 31 December 2025, the combined shareholding was 49.98%, as set out in the
Directors’ Report.
On 11 June 2024, the Group entered into Relationship Agreements with the Foundation, the
Controlling Shareholder and the Ezrah Charitable Trust (together, the Controlling Shareholders”)
to ensure the Group operates independently, at arm’s length and on a normal commercial
basis. These agreements prohibit the Foundation from voting on matters affecting itself
or actions that could breach UK Listing Rules or compromise the Group’s independence.
The Controlling Shareholder may nominate up to two Non-Executive Directors if its
shareholding exceeds 25%, or one if above 10%. Currently, Daniel Labbad, a trustee of the
Foundation until 10 June 2024, is the sole Board Director of the Company nominated by
the Foundation in this manner. All other Board members were appointed independently.
In September 2020 Raspberry Pi Ltd and the Foundation entered into to an agreement
to transfer the Raspberry Pi brand to Raspberry Pi Ltd. As a condition of that agreement
Raspberry Pi Ltd undertook to provide low-cost computers to education customers.
Failure to meet this would result in trademark ownership reverting to the Foundation.
On 21 February 2024, Raspberry Pi Ltd amended its trademark agreement with the
Foundation, to change the definition of low cost to be a price of no more than $45
(or, if higher, manufactured cost plus 20%, plus applicable taxes and fees).
During the year, the Foundation purchased $24,000 (2024: $27,400) in goods from the
Group. The Group had historically provided life assurance and medical insurance for
employees jointly with the Foundation. For administrative simplicity the Group paid the
entire premium and recharged the relevant share to the Foundation. Annual arrangements
were in place at the time of the listing and accordingly will continue to their expiry. Post-listing
pension contributions and life assurance costs for the Foundation, totalling $1.6 million
(2024: $0.8 million), were recharged. No amount was outstanding at the end of the year
(2024: $47,200). These transactions do not relate to the main business of the Group.
All other related party transactions are disclosed in Note 31.
As required by UK Listing Rule 6.2.3, all the Independent Directors confirm that, since listing,
the Group has operated independently from the Controlling Shareholders at all times.

31 Related party transactions
The Group’s related parties include subsidiary undertakings, Board members and their
close family members, and principal shareholders holding 10% or more of voting rights.
Transactions between the parent and subsidiaries are eliminated on consolidation and
are not disclosed in this note.
Key management personnel is defined as the Board. Board remuneration is detailed
in Note 6 and in the Directors’ Remuneration Report. In addition to the short-term employee
benefits, post-employment benefits and share-based payment expenses outlined in Note 6,
a total of $0.2 million (2024: $0.3 million) was paid for social security contributions related
to key management personnel. Related party transactions with the Controlling Shareholder
are disclosed in Note 30.
During the year, members of the Board and their close family members undertook the
following share dealings:

32 Events after the reporting period
The Group entered into an amendment to a long-term supply agreement as disclosed
in Note 22. The amendment, effective from 1 January 2026, modifies the remaining
contractual commitments, with a total value of approximately $300.0 million over the period
2026 to 2030 and includes updated supply obligations with the supplier. As the agreement
was executed after the reporting date, no adjustments to the financial statements
for the year ended 31 December 2025 are required.

On 23 May 2024, Raspberry Pi Holdings plc acquired Raspberry Pi Ltd in a share-for-share
exchange valued at $288.1 million. A shareholder resolution reduced the share capital to its
nominal value, increasing distributable earnings by $287.3 million. Previous share capital
and $66.2 million of share premium were derecognised and recorded in merger reserve.
B London Stock Exchange listing
On 11 June 2024, Raspberry Pi Holdings plc listed on the London Stock Exchange, issuing
11.2 million shares at £2.80 each. Net proceeds of $32.4 million after costs of $7.6 million
were deducted from equity.
C VAT recovered on IPO-related share issuance costs
In 2025, the Company recognised $1.4 million of VAT on 2024 listing costs as recoverable
following its VAT registration. As the original costs were charged to share premium, the
recoverable amount has been credited to the share premium account.

On 23 May 2024: Raspberry Pi ListCo Ltd acquired Raspberry Pi Ltd for $288.1 million.
On 3 June 2024: The Company was re-registered and renamed Raspberry Pi Holdings plc.
On 11 June 2024: The ordinary share capital was listed on the London Stock Exchange.
On 23 September 2024: The Company was added to the FTSE 250.
These are the Company’s first full-year financial statements. The prior period, presented
forcomparative purposes, covers the nine months from incorporation on 12 March 2024
to31December 2024.
2 Basis of preparation and accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation
The Company prepares its financial statements inaccordance with FRS 101 “Reduced
Disclosure Framework” (“FRS 101”) and with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
This is the Company’s first year applying FRS 101, having previously prepared its financial
statements under Financial Reporting Standard 102 (“FRS 102”). The transition required no
adjustments to previously reported amounts. Comparatives are presented on an FRS 101
basis and certain line items have been re-presented to reflect FRS 101 presentation
requirements. The principal re-presentation relates to the classification of the intercompany
loan within debtors rather than as part of fixed assets, as it is not an asset that is
designated for continuing use within the business. The transition has had no material
impact on the financial statements, given the substantial alignment of FRS102 and FRS101
for a non‑trading parent.
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, using the
historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Companies Act 2006. The going
concern assumption is detailed in Note 2 of the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
Critical judgements and estimates for the Company accounts are identical to those
disclosed critical accounting judgements and estimates (relating to the IPO) of the Group’s
consolidated financial statements. The presentation currency is US Dollars, rounded to the
nearest million.
2.2 Capital reorganisation
On 23 May 2024, Raspberry Pi Holdings plc acquired the entire shareholding of Raspberry Pi
Ltd in exchange for shares with an aggregate nominal value of $288.1 million by way of a
share-for-share exchange agreement.
The issue of shares was subject to the provision of a merger relief in accordance with
section612 of the Companies Act 2006 which precluded the recognition of share premium
on the shares issued. The Company also elected to apply section 615 of the Companies Act
2006 resulting in the investment being originally recorded at an amount equivalent to the
aggregate nominal value of the shares issued.
2.3 Basis of accounting
Below is a summary of the main accounting policies of the Company, which have been
consistently applied.
The Company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions under FRS 101:
IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”;
paragraphs 91 to 99 of IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement” (disclosure of valuation
techniques and inputs used for fair value measurement of assets and liabilities);
the following paragraphs of IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”:
10(d) (statement of cash flows);
16 (statement of compliance with all IFRS);
38A (requirement for minimum of two primary statements, including cash
flowstatements);
38B–D (additional comparative information);
111 (statement of cash flows information); and
134–136 (capital management disclosures);
IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”;
paragraph 17 of IAS 24 “Related Party Disclosures” (key management compensation); and
the requirements in IAS 24 “Related Party Disclosures”, to disclose related party
transactions entered into between two or more members of a group.

2.3 Basis of accounting continued
2.3.1 New standards, interpretations and amendments effective or adopted for the first
time this period
The Company has not early adopted any standards, interpretations or amendments that
have been issued but not yet effective.
2.3.2 Foreign exchange
Raspberry Pi Holdings plc, a UK-registered company, operates with a functional and
presentational currency of US Dollars. Monetary assets and liabilities held in foreign
currencies are translated to US Dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet
date. Transactions conducted in foreign currencies (mainly Sterling) are translated
toUSDollars at the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Any exchange
differences are recorded in the income statement.
2.3.3 Investments
Investments are recorded at cost, with deductions made for any reduction in value.
Impairments are recognised in the profit and loss account as they arise.
2.3.4 Income statement
As permitted under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006, the Company does not
presentaseparate income statement.
2.3.5 Directors' remuneration
The details of remuneration for Executive and Non-Executive Directors, along with their
interests in Company shares and options, can be found in the audited section of the
Directors’Remuneration Report.
2.3.6 Share-based payments
The Company provides equity-settled share-based payments to certain employees
andemployees of its subsidiaries. These are valued at fair market value (excluding
non‑market-based vesting conditions) on the grant date and expensed evenly over
thevestingperiod.
Fair value is calculated using the Black-Scholes model and Monte-Carlo simulation, as
detailed inNote 27 of the consolidated accounts on share-based payments. For awards
made to employees of subsidiaries, the fair value is recognised by the Company in the
income statement. Intra-group recharges to the employing subsidiary, up to the fair value
ofthe awards, are recognised as a reduction of the Company’s expense and treated as
investment to the subsidiary by way of capital contribution. Proceeds received, net of
directly related transaction costs, arecredited to share capital (nominal value) and share
premium upon exercise of the options.
2.3.7 Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Company becomes a party
to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. For financial
assets and liabilities measured at amortised cost, the initial measurement is adjusted for
directly attributable transaction costs, where material.
Subsequently, financial assets and financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest method where they meet the conditions for such measurement.
The Company’s financial instruments comprise trade receivables and financial liabilities
measured at amortised cost, which are presented as creditors in the balance sheet,
including trade creditors and intra-group loans.
2.3.8 Dividends
Dividends are recognised when they become legally payable. In the case of final dividends,
thisis when approved by the shareholders at the AGM. Interim dividends are recorded
whenpaid.
3 Results for the period
The Company recorded a loss for the year of $6.5 million (2024: $3.2 million for the
nine‑month period).
The Company had an average of three employees during the year (2024: three).
TheDirectors’ remuneration is disclosed in the Directors’ Remuneration Report.

In 2025, the Company registered for VAT and, as a result, was entitled to recover VAT
of$1.4 million from HMRC in respect of share issuance costs incurred on the Company’s
listing in 2024. See Note 7. The amount remained outstanding at year end but was repaid
byHMRC in February 2026.
In 2024, a $38.4 million loan was provided by the Company to Raspberry Pi Ltd with
interest-free, perpetual repayable on demand. In the prior year, when the financial
statements were prepared under FRS 102, this balance was presented as a separate line
item within non-current financial assets on the face of the balance sheet. Following the
transition to FRS 101 “Reduced Disclosure Framework”, the Company has aligned its
presentation with the requirements of IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements”
asadopted in the UK, and the loan is now presented within debtors. The comparative
information has been re-presented accordingly. This represents a reclassification of
presentation only and does not constitute a restatement, as there has been no change
inrecognition or measurement.
The carrying value of the loan has been reduced by expenses paid by the subsidiary
onbehalf of the Company and offset against the loan balance, resulting in a loan balance
of$25.2 million (2024: $29.1 million).
The table above also includes the deferred tax asset which is classified as non-current,
inaccordance with FRS 101 and Companies Act presentation.

Share capital
Ordinary shares carry equal voting, dividend and distribution rights with the nominal value
representing amounts subscribed for. During the year, additional shares were issued in
connection with the vesting and release of share-based awards.
61,610,435 deferred shares of £0.0025 each were created as part of the share capital
reorganisation. The deferred shares have no voting rights or rights to a dividend. It is
intended for the holders of the deferred shares to transfer them to the Company otherwise
than for valuable consideration pursuant to s659(1) CA 2006 in Q2 2025. They will then be
cancelled pursuant to s662(1)(c).
Share premium account
The share premium account records the amount above the nominal value received for
shares issued, less transaction costs. The listing generated $40.0 million in gross proceeds,
with $7.6 million in costs deducted directly from equity. At the time the costs were incurred,
only a limited recovery of input VAT was available, so the full expense was charged to share
premium. During 2025 it was possible to reclaim $1.4 million of VAT from HMRC. As the
original costs were charged to share premium, the recovery was accounted for as an
increase in share premium. The share premium account is in most circumstances not
immediately available for distribution.
Share-based payment reserve
This reserve represents the cumulative income statement charges for unvested employee
share awards. Once the awards vest this reserve is recycled to retained earnings and theissue
of equity is reflected in share capital, share premium or retained earnings as appropriate.
Retained earnings
This reserve represents the total of all current and prior retained earnings available
tofacilitate future shareholder distributions.
8 Related party transactions
The Company is exempt from disclosing other related party transactions as they are with
other companies that are wholly owned within the Raspberry Pi Holdings plc Group.
Disclosures on details and transactions with Controlling Shareholders and other related
party transactions are in Notes 30 and 31 of the consolidated financial statements.
9 Events after the reporting period
There have been no events between the balance sheet date, and the date on which the
financial statements were approved by the Board, which would require adjustment to the
financial statements or any additional disclosures.
