Time To ACT plc
("Time To ACT" or the "Company")
Corporate Update and Board Change
Time To ACT plc (AQSE: TTA), an engineering-led group focused on technology for the energy
transition supply chain, is pleased to announce that it has launched a new strategic initiative
designed to improve customer focus and enhance the penetration of new customer verticals. The
initiative sees the separation of Diffusion Alloys, its principal trading business, into two distinct
focus lines; Diffusion Alloys Coating Technology and Diffusion Alloys Coating Services.
Diffusion Alloys Coating Technology ("Coating Technology")
Coating Technology represents the business' strategic focus on selling technical excellence in
coating capability supported by the concept of "flexible capacity". Flexible capacity is the business'
ability to provide customers with capacity wherever they need that capacity to be, whether for the
coating of large parts or for small parts, and includes the opportunity provided by Diffusion
Alloys'
proprietary new low-cost modular coating equipment which is currently under
development.
Coating Technology will include asset-light technology licensing, coating powder sales and
technical consulting revenues and will grasp the opportunity coming from a strengthened
customer dialogue in all end-market verticals.
Diffusion Alloys Coating Services ("Coating Services")
Coating Services is the new name for the Diffusion Alloys plant-led coatings business centred on
its Middlesbrough site.
Board Change
The Company additionally announces that Lisa Randall has resigned as a non-executive director of
the Company with immediate effect. She remains in her current role of Managing Director of
Diffusion Alloys (UK) Limited. The Company has identified a new non-executive director, and a
further announcement is expected in the near future.
Chris Heminway, Executive Chairman of Time To ACT plc commented: "The evolution of
Diffusion Alloys from its old model of "a coatings plant supported by a technical team" into its new
model of a "technical coatings capability supported by a plant" is an important and exciting
development for the Company. We believe that this will facilitate the growth in Diffusion Alloys'
sustainable annual revenues through improved customer focus.
"I would like to thank Lisa for her recent contribution to Time to ACT , in particular her efforts in
relocating Diffusion Alloys from its former Hatfield location to Middlesbrough and in the negotiation
and subsequent implementation of the Johnson Matthey supply-chain partnership."

About Time To ACT plc
Time To ACT plc is an engineering-led group focused on technology for the energy transition
supply chain. It currently has two principal operating businesses: Diffusion Alloys and GreenSpur.
As the parent company of the Group, Time To ACT provides strategic and operational support to
the operating companies and capital to enable their growth.
About GreenSpur
GreenSpur is an intellectual property creator and generator designer that has developed a credible
solution for renewable energy applications to the Rare Earth magnet problem.
Magnets constructed using Rare Earth Elements (REEs) are fundamental components in electrical
generators and electric vehicle motors which are critical to delivering the clean energy transition.
However, there are substantial supply chain constraints and risks in the sourcing of REEs that are
needed for these magnets.
GreenSpur's generator design eliminates the need for Rare Earth magnets and copper coils
without any loss in electrical performance.
About Diffusion Alloys
Diffusion Alloys supplies diffusion coatings.A diffusion coating is an intermetallic layer that
protects metal components from degradation at high temperatures and in highly corrosive
environments, such as those found in hydrogen and nuclear energy generation.
Diffusion Alloys has joined forces with Johnson Matthey plc, the market leaders in synthesis gas
("syngas") with a significant pipeline of Blue Hydrogen projects, to scale-up production and
address the increasing demand for low carbon hydrogen used to reduce global carbon emissions.
In addition to working for numerous historic and existing customers, the Directors believe that
Diffusion Alloys is the only credible diffusion coater in the world for blue hydrogen components,
has already been coating in volume for a leading European vendor in the green hydrogen space
and is also in pre-commercial discussions with new cleantech equipment manufacturers
