Trading Update
Capital Markets Day
Anite plc ("Anite" or "the Company"), the leading provider of software and hardware solutions to the international wireless market, announces a brief trading update for the three months to 31 January 2015 ("Q3"), ahead of a Capital Markets Day that it is hosting this afternoon in London.
Trading Update
Trading in what is traditionally a quiet third quarter has continued the strong positive trends of the latter part of the first half. This was consistent with the build-up of momentum in both of Anite's businesses that was reported at the half year results in December 2014. Overall trading in Q3 was ahead of the Board's expectations, underpinning unchanged expectations for the year as a whole. Further good progress has been made with the integration of Xceed, acquired in October 2014, which has performed as expected in the period.
Capital Markets Day
Anite today hosts a Capital Markets Day which will include presentations and demonstrations of recent product developments and acquisitions. These will be led by senior divisional management. Copies of presentations will be made available on the website after the seminar (www.anite.com). There will be no presentation on current trading.
Christopher Humphrey, Chief Executive of Anite, said:
"Following a good third quarter, we have entered the seasonally important final trading quarter with a larger pipeline of sales opportunities than at the same time last year and improved confidence in the outlook for the year as a whole."
