on 25 November 2008
Intec Telecom Systems PLC (LSE: ITL, the "Company"), announces an amendment to the notes to the results for the year ended 30 September 2008, announced on 25 November 2008.
Subsequent to the announcement, the Company has amended the composition of the 2008 segmental analysis disclosed within Note 3. The amendment does not change the reported results of the Group for the year ended 30 September 2008 or the financial position as at that date.
