Quixant (AIM: QXT), a leading provider of specialised computing platforms for casino gaming and slot machine applications, is delighted to today be confirmed as a winner of the Queen's Award for Enterprise, the UK's highest accolade for business success.

Quixant receives the award for International Trade, specifically for outstanding sales growth over the last three years. In 2014 Quixant generated revenues of US$31.9m, an increase of 32% over 2013, shipping 28,500 products to its global customer base. Quixant is uniquely positioned to capitalise on the growing trend amongst gaming machine manufacturers of outsourcing the computer platforms used to power their machines.

Commenting on receiving the Queen's Award, Nick Jarmany, CEO of Quixant, said: "When we founded Quixant in 2005 we were confident there was strong international demand for our product.  However, even we did not foresee the growth we have achieved over the last few years and for this to be recognised with a Queen's Award is fantastic.

"Our success is due to the quality of our products and service we provide, and this Award recognises the skill and dedication of all our employees who year after year enable us to achieve great results."
