“Netcall delivered another strong performance with increased uptake of our Liberty platform and I am pleased to report good growth in both revenue and profitability.
“Sales momentum was particularly robust for our cloud solutions which experienced good demand across our key markets. As a result, Cloud recurring revenue exited the period as the Group's biggest revenue stream growing 26% during the year.

This, combined with a healthy balance sheet and high levels of recurring revenue, provide the Board with confidence in the Group's continued success.”
