Key Market Trends Fueling Growth

The global keyboard market has seen significant advancements in technology and product innovation. Initially, keyboards were primarily used with personal computers. However, the gaming industry’s technological progression has led to an increased demand for high-quality peripherals, such as keyboards. Gaming keyboards offer features like backlighting options, including mono color and full RGB. Keyboards come in two main types: membrane and mechanical. Mechanical keyboards, which use switches to send typing signals, offer longer durability due to the absence of a membrane. Gaming keyboards cater to various budgets. Membrane keyboards are the most affordable, while mechanical keyboards with monocolored backlighting and a full range of keys fall within the mid-price range. High-end gaming keyboards, featuring full RGB backlighting and numerous macro keys, are preferred by professional gamers and are more expensive. Innovations in keyboard technology continue to enhance the gaming experience, contributing to the market’s growth. 

Keyboards have seen significant improvements in technology, catering to various industries and user needs. Conventional membrane keyboards have given way to mechanical keyboards with clicky switches, offering better response time and tactile feedback. Mechanical keyboard technology includes linear and tactile switches, with Cherry Stream being a popular choice. Bluetooth and RF connectivity enable multiple platform compatibility. Artificial neural networks and cognitive computing are integrated into keyboards for pattern recognition and language modeling. Ergonomic keyboards and medical keyboards prioritize user comfort, while gamers prefer mechanical keyboards with RGB illumination and low response time. The gaming industry’s growth fuels the demand for mechanical keyboards and RGB illumination. Commercial enterprises and corporate offices also invest in digitalization, adopting ergonomic and efficient input devices like mechanical keyboards. Optical keyboards and speech-to-text converters further enhance productivity. Infrared and RFID technology add stability and security to keyboards. Keycaps with customizable designs cater to personal preferences. ML (Machine Learning) and statistical analysis enable customized user experiences. Plastic tools and improvements in key switch technology ensure durability and longevity.

Adjusted EBITDA Grows at 35% YoYGross Margin up 29 bps1 to 46%; Adjusted EBITDA Margin up 189 bps to 17%

NEW YORK, July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Fractal Analytics Ltd (BSE: 544700) (NSE: FRACTAL) announced its consolidated financial results for Q1 FY27, ending June 30, 2026.

In Q1 FY27, the Company reported consolidated operating revenue of INR 9,125 m, a growth of 20% year on year (YoY). Revenue growth was led by the company’s Healthcare and Life Sciences (HLS) industry, which clocked 69% growth YoY. Strong sustained growth in HLS over the last several quarters has resulted in it becoming the second largest industry in the portfolio. Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI) also performed very well, growing 36% YoY in Q1. Fractal’s largest industry, Consumer Packaged Goods and Retail (CPGR), continued to gather momentum, growing 19% YoY. On the other hand, TMT declined 22% YoY.

Fractal’s focus on deepening customer relationships continues to yield good outcomes. Its clients collectively increased their spending with the company, as reflected in the Net Revenue Retention2 of 117% in Q1. Further, its Net Promoter Score (NPS) during the period stood at 77.

The company reported improved profit margins at all levels. Gross Margin in Q1 was at 46%, while Adjusted EBITDA Margin expanded by 189 bps YoY to 17%. Net Income grew 92% YoY to INR 723 m.

Commenting on the performance, Srikanth Velamakanni, Group CEO and Executive Vice-Chairman, said:

“Enterprises are putting real transformation budgets behind AI now and we’re seeing it directly in the size of the deals coming to us. TMT was the drag on our headline growth this quarter. Excluding TMT, our business grew 35% year on year, which is a better read on the underlying demand we’re seeing.

As data sovereignty becomes a bigger priority for governments and enterprises, and as open-weight models keep improving, clients need a partner who can work across models and infrastructure. We have invested heavily in our people, our research, and our own intellectual property to be that partner.”

Xryma Plc : Pre-Listing Liquidity Facility and Price Discovery Process

Published

on

By

NICOSIA, Cyprus, July 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Xryma Plc (“Xryma”)  announces its intention to reapply within the next twelve months for admission to list on Euronext Paris (“Euronext”), with such admission being subject to Euronext’s approval. Before submitting its application, Xryma intends to launch a pre-listing liquidity facility and price discovery process, comprising a private placement to institutional and qualified investors alongside a secondary market offer to Xryma existing shareholders (“shareholders”) wishing to exit prior to listing.  

The admission referred to above that is subject to the approval of Euronext may also be subject to approval by relevant regulatory authorities, and no assurance can be given that approval will be granted or as to the timing of any admission.

The pre-listing liquidity facility and price discovery process is designed to:

Enable shareholders seeking an exit to participate without the need to open an EU brokerage account,Provide a clear and orderly opportunity for existing shareholders to sell all or part of their holdings ahead of any potential admission to trading on Euronext Paris,Enable shareholders to sell all or part of their holdings at the same price at which qualified and institutional investors subscribe for shares in the Company,Establish, through a bookbuild with qualified and institutional investors, a market-validated referenced price for Xryma shares ahead of any potential admission on Euronext Paris (the “Primary Market Placement Price”),Support orderly trading upon potential admission.

Individual shareholder mailouts explaining the details of the pre-listing liquidity facility scheme with instructions and necessary documentation will be conducted during August 2026.

As the Primary Market Placement Price is to be determined by the subsequent bookbuild, shareholders will be given the opportunity to set a floor price which will result in the sale of their shares if the Primary Market Placement Price is higher.  Shareholders will receive the Primary Market Placement Price minus applicable fees.

Shareholders and Investors may be scaled back to match corresponding demand from the other party, with partial fulfilment a possibility if the Company cannot match supply to demand.

Completion of the process is subject to achieving a level of institutional and qualified investor demand that the Board considers appropriate to support an orderly market should Xryma subsequently be admitted to trading on Euronext Paris.

Participation is entirely voluntary. Shareholders who do not wish to sell will simply retain their shares. Shareholders that do not intend to participate should continue to onboard with a Euronext participating broker, or a Euroclear ESES custodian, per previous communications.

The major shareholders, SCP Select All Enterprise (Monaco) and SCP Red 5 Solutions (Monaco) will not participate in the offer and will be subject to lock up arrangements.

Mr Nikogiannis (John) Karantzis, CEO of Xryma Plc comments: “Our shareholders have told us they would value a straightforward way to realise their holdings without the time and cost of opening an EU brokerage account. This process is our response to that feedback. We are structuring the placement to be large enough to establish a credible reference price whilst limiting dilution, with demand directed first towards meeting shareholder sell interest. We look forward to updating the market on the revised timetable in due course.”
