The company said it made GBP496,000 in pretax profit in the financial year to the end of April, driven by revenue growing to GBP8.5 million from GBP7.0 million and gross margin expanding to 61.1% from 59.2%.
Scientific Digital Imaging said it saw good growth for its Synbiosis and Synoptics digital imaging technology brands in the year, accompanied by a strong performance for its Artemis CCD unit, which makes high-sensitivity cameras. Revenue also was boosted by the acquisition of Sentek, which makes sensors for water-based applications.
The company said it anticipates a further strong performance in the current financial year, boosted by growing demand for its products in North America and, in particular, in the rapid microbiology and antibiotic resistance testing sectors.
