In the Chief Executive Officer's Report in the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2018, the following operational update was provided on Paraytec: "In 2017 Paraytec took action to focus its business activities and reduce its fixed cost base. Its objective was to ensure the business was profitable based on the royalty income stream from its two main licensees - Malvern Panalytical Ltd and Pion Inc. Concurrently, the company commenced two, key grant funded, R&D projects to develop new product lines for the future. This strategy worked well and the business is now profitable and cash positive."
