FIDELITY SYSTEMS PLC TRADING STATEMENT - November 29th 2011 Despite the current financial doom and gloom I am pleased to be able to report that Fidelity is continuing to make good progress and still remains extremely busy with orders for the many vertical markets we supply. Over the summer period we either installed new systems or upgraded existing ones at fifteen Universities in the UK and Republic of Ireland. The equipment supplied was for a mix of both retail and hospitality outlets within the campuses. One of the key strengths of Fidelity's campus solution is that it is equally at home in a bar or night club with a few hundred products through to the largest retail operations with tens of thousands of products. In total we now supply and continue to support around eighty five Universities and colleges. An interesting new project and partnership has been the development of an ordering gateway between the Student Union's retail outlets and the CO-OP. This development has been funded by NUSSL, the National Union of Students buying group. The gateway enables the Unions to order replacement stock directly from the CO-OP without the associated telephone calls and paper trail. The gateway is being hosted by Fidelity on a dedicated server and we have a dozen or more confirmed orders for this new system. A second project and partnership has been the integration between Fidelity's Point of Sale software, G-PoS and Squid, the smartcard based epayment platform. The Squid card is currently being rolled out into many UK cities including Aberdeen, Dundee and Bolton. Squidcards are smart cards that hold eMoney and the Squid network uses the internet, smart cards and digital stored value systems to transfer the funds. The link has already opened new doors for Fidelity and I look forward to be able to report further news on this exciting partnership in the new year. Staff levels have remained roughly similar to the previous year and I will continue to keep a close eye on our overheads. As in previous years, subject to satisfactory performance, we intend paying an interim dividend in 2012.
