Trading Update
Netcall plc (AIM: NET), a leading provider of callback, auto-messaging and
contact solutions, today gives an update on trading for the year ended 30 June
2009.
The Board is pleased to report that since the interim results announcement in
February, trading in the second half of the Company's financial year has
progressed well. As a result, profits before share option charges for the full
year are expected to be significantly ahead of market expectations and 2008.
This is due to a growth in revenues year on year and importantly an improvement
in margins that resulted from a continued focus on cost management.
We have also improved our cash position. Cash generation in the year was very
strong resulting in the Company's cash position as at 30 June 2009 increasing to
GBP4.2 million (FY08: GBP2.9m), this is after the Company invested GBP0.4
million in a share buy-back programme during the year.
Henrik Bang, CEO, Netcall, commented, "The Company has made extremely good
progress this year. It is particularly encouraging that, given the general
economic environment, we have performed beyond original expectations for the
year. Along with an improving cash position the company is well placed to forge
ahead with its development plans and deliver significant shareholder value in
the future."
