John McArthur, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
“Having put in place solid foundations at the beginning of the year with the Group’s transactions and investments, the focus in the second half has been one of delivery. As a result the Group has achieved another set of positive results. These results include our most active transactional period to date with the acquisitions of SEP and Ontrac, both of which are trading well and have further bolstered our positive performance, and a further two investments completed. The result of these acquisitions made during the period, combined with good progress on new software development, has led to the Tracsis offering being significantly enhanced in terms of breadth and depth.”
