The group, which is a major supplier to the NHS, said recurring revenue increased by 42% to £7.5m and to 47% of total revenue. Licence revenue fell to £5.4m from £7.7m and Healthcare revenue slipped to £12.1m from £12.6m.
Chief executive officer Ian Bowles said he was pleased with the momentum and performance so far this year.

This, combined with our confidence in the levels of business that we are seeing in our markets, enables us to look forward to a successful full year outcome," he said.
