Talius signs $1.65M contract to expand Adventist Retirement Plus rollout
Talius Group Limited (ASX: TAL) has signed a $1.65M Statement of Work (SOW) with Adventist Retirement Plus (ARP), extending its aged care technology footprint across three Queensland facilities. The agreement covers a second-stage deployment at Victoria Point alongside two new deployments at Caloundra and Capricorn.
Each site will receive nurse call, sleep monitoring and Real-Time Location System (RTLS) solutions. For investors, the standout figure is $134,602 in combined annual recurring revenue (ARR), underpinned by $403,806 in contracted software revenue over an initial three-year term.
The agreement lifts the total value of contracts secured with ARP during FY26 to approximately $3.0 million. It represents both recurring revenue growth and further proof that the company’s multi-site enterprise model is converting into repeat deployments.

Breaking down the $1.65M contract
The total contract value of $1,649,959 splits across three revenue components. Hardware accounts for the largest share at $1,246,153, while contracted software revenue of $403,806 over three years delivers the recurring element that matters most to a subscription-driven business.
That software revenue equates to $134,602 in combined ARR across the three facilities. The full breakdown by site is set out below.
| Facility | Annual Recurring Revenue | Contracted Software Revenue (3 yrs) | Hardware Revenue | Total Contract Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Victoria Point (Stage 2) | $71,110 | $213,330 | $634,572 | $847,902 |
| Caloundra | $25,584 | $76,752 | $257,965 | $334,717 |
| Capricorn | $37,908 | $113,724 | $353,616 | $467,340 |
| Combined | $134,602 | $403,806 | $1,246,153 | $1,649,959 |
Victoria Point represents the second stage of existing works, making it the largest single contributor at $847,902. Caloundra and Capricorn are entirely new deployments. Each of the three facilities will receive nurse call, sleep monitoring and RTLS solutions under the SOW.
Why this deepens the Adventist Retirement Plus relationship
This is a return to, and expansion of, an existing customer relationship rather than a first engagement. The expanded deployment follows successful implementation of the initial ARP sites, pointing to increasing customer adoption across the operator’s Queensland portfolio.
The initial ARP agreement, a $565,253 Master Services Agreement signed in April 2026 covering two Queensland retirement villages, established the commercial framework that made this second statement of work possible without renegotiating procurement terms.
Central to the strategy is the multi-site MSA model, which allows existing customers to progressively expand deployments without renegotiating commercial terms. The commercial benefit is twofold: deepening relationships with established aged care operators while increasing recurring software revenue over time.
Pat Howard, Managing Director and CEO of Talius
“This contract demonstrates the benefit of our enterprise engagement strategy. Following the initial ARP deployments we have secured a substantially larger second statement of work that expends into two additional facilities while progressing the Victoria Point rollout. Beyond the immediate hardware deployment, this contract adds more than $134,000 of annual recurring revenue and further validates our strategy of building long-term enterprise relationships that generate repeat deployments and recurring revenue over time. The contract is one of our largest single engagements to date and brings together nurse call, sleep monitoring and RTLS in one deployment across three facilities.”
What nurse call, sleep monitoring and RTLS actually do
The deployment is delivered through the Talius One Platform, a device-agnostic, real-time healthcare data platform. It combines sensor data, CSIRO-validated analytics and automated compliance workflows within a single governed environment, delivering automated alerts, workflow integration and compliance reporting.
The deployment incorporates nurse call, sleep monitoring, and Real-Time Location System (RTLS) solutions.
For investors, the significance lies in the model rather than the individual features. Recurring subscription revenue, sticky enterprise deployments and platform scale combine to create durability. As of FY25, Talius reported 51,150+ active subscriptions and $3.3M in ARR, up 12.7% year-on-year.
Outlook and next steps
The company expects deployment activities to commence during FY2026, with recurring software revenue progressively activated as each facility becomes operational. Talius continues to work with ARP on additional opportunities within their broader portfolio.
Management remains focused on converting further enterprise opportunities across the aged care sector. The key forward markers are:
-
Deployment commences FY2026
-
ARR activated progressively per facility
-
Further ARP portfolio opportunities under discussion
-
Continued enterprise pipeline conversion focus
The Talius One Platform is deployed by major aged care providers including Bolton Clarke, Uniting Care, Keyton and St John. The company is executing its platform scaling strategy under CEO Pat Howard, whose previous leadership at MSL Solutions delivered growth in market capitalisation from $16M to $120M, supporting the management team’s execution track record.
The Metlifecare rollout across New Zealand, enabled by the Talius Stratix Integration Module which connects into existing nurse call infrastructure without hardware replacement, demonstrates how the same platform scaling strategy is being applied beyond Australian borders to a 37-village, 7,200-resident network.
