Trading Statement and Notice of Results
Netcall plc (AIM: NET), a leading customer engagement software provider, is pleased to give an update on trading for the six month period ended 31 December 2015.
The Company has continued to trade in line with management expectations during the first half of the year.
During the period we experienced a strong order inflow, with an increasing share of the sales mix coming from SaaS-based contracts which will increase revenue visibility by providing recurring revenue streams in future periods. Growth in order inflow has been driven by demand from both the public and commercial sectors for Netcall's Liberty suite, including modules such as Customer Experience Manager and our multimedia contact centre solution.
The Group has a robust cash position, maintaining its debt free balance sheet. At 31 December 2015 the net cash balance had increased to £15.2m (30 June 2015: £13.7m).
Henrik Bang, CEO of Netcall commented:
"We have seen strong demand for our Liberty product suite with significant sales order growth. In line with our strategy, an increasing share of new business is SaaS-based contracts, providing recurring revenue streams in future periods. This positive sales momentum, combined with our high levels of recurring revenue, means the Board is confident in delivering a positive outcome to the year."
