Trading Update

 

Kainos Group plc, a leading provider of Digital Services and Platforms, today issues a trading update for the year ended 31 March 2017. 

 

Trading in the year ended 31 March 2017 has continued to be in line with market expectations; the Company has experienced good growth across all divisions, and remains well positioned in its core markets.

 

The increasing trends towards digitisation and adoption of enterprise Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions have continued to generate strong demand for the Company's Digital Services in both public and commercial markets in the UK and Europe.   

 

Growth in Digital Platforms remains solid, supported by sustained momentum of Kainos WorkSmart contract wins, although limited funding in the UK's NHS continues to moderate short term growth of Kainos Evolve platforms.  The Company continues to invest in development, sales and marketing of its Evolve Integrated Care platform. 

 

Kainos has a robust balance sheet with no debt and strong cash generation.  The business has a solid pipeline, which includes a growing level of recurring revenue.  Recruitment remains strong, with over 216 people joining Kainos since 1 April 2016, bringing the total number of employees and contractors worldwide to 975 at the end of March 2017.

 

The announcement of Kainos results for the year ended 31 March 2017 will be made on Tuesday 30 May 2017.
