Trading update
EMIS Group plc (AIM: EMIS.L), a UK leader in connected healthcare software and systems, today announces a trading update for the six months ended 30 June 2022.
Trading for the half year continued to track in line with the Board's expectations. The Group retained its leading positions in specialist markets, benefited from high levels of recurring revenue and remained in a strong financial position.
In EMIS Health, the Group is continuing to support its customers across the NHS while accelerating investment in its technology and cloud refresh strategy as well as in improved internal systems. As expected, revenue growth was held back by a planned reduction in lower margin resale partner activities. However, the business will benefit from a number of digitisation contracts which were secured for delivery in the second half of the year.
In EMIS Enterprise , the Group continues to execute in the areas of analytics, patient-facing services and pharmacy, with encouraging contributions from the two acquisitions completed in the period adding to double digit organic growth in revenues in the first half.
The Group retains a strong balance sheet position with net cash at 30 June 2022 of 53.6m (30 June 2021: 48.0m).
