Announces an update on trading for the financial year ended 31 March 2015. The Company is pleased to report that revenue for the year is expected to be around 20% greater than the prior year at approximately $11.4m (2014: $9.6m). The Company expects a loss at the EBITDA* level of approximately $0.6m (2014: $0.5m). This follows, as previously announced, second half revenues lower than the first due to a combination of seasonality of projects in the entertainment industry and disruptions within a major customer. The sales pipeline for the new financial year has continued to improve, with the potential for further improvement following the recently announced contract win with BBC Worldwide and by our recent appointment by Apple Computer Inc. as an iTunes Delivery Partner. The Company has made good progress in the diversification of its sources of revenue and has significantly reduced its historical dependency on its largest customer. During the year its cloud-based production systems, ZOOsubs and ZOOcore, have been adopted by BBC Worldwide and several other leading content creators and publishers, thereby doubling the number of customers. These developments are expected to lead to additional revenue from digital packaging, subtitling, and other localisation services. Stuart Green, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented: "We are encouraged by the positive momentum of our cloud-based solutions and the opportunities arising from recent client successes. Although the home entertainment market continues to be volatile and evolve rapidly, the investments that we have made during the year in our language translation capabilities are expected to support improved margins, notably in subtitling services."

Quarterly trading update for the first three months ending March 31, 2015 of the current financial year ending 31 December 2015. The Company is pleased to report that both revenue and invoiced sales for the quarter were substantially ahead of the comparative period for the prior year . During the quarter, the Company also added a number of new clients, across its target high consequence industries, with contracts worth an aggregate US$1,236,000 (2014 Q1: US$873,000. The average first year invoiced sales value for these new clients also increased 111% to US$154,000 (2014 Q1: US$73,000). Invoiced sales from new business for the quarter increased by 29% US$2.2M (2014 Q1: US$1.7M). Jay Shaw, Chief Executive Officer of NetDimensions, said: "The Board is pleased with the growth in new business in the first quarter of the current year when compared to the prior year. The growth in the first quarter, which is typically our quietest quarter, provides us further confidence for the full year."

For the twelve months ended 31 March 2015 was a year of significant growth, in line with market expectations. During the year, strong sales and margin momentum has underpinned an increase in Adjusted* Operating Profit of over 50% at the same time as investing in establishing the Group's US operations. This excellent performance has primarily been driven by the organic growth of Eckoh's proposition in the UK, where we have secured over 20 new contracts during the year as well as successfully renewing 100% of all significant contracts that came up for renewal. In the US market we have also made encouraging progress with sales of our secure payment proposition, and since the contracts update issued on March 31st we are delighted to announce that the Group has secured an additional US contract. This agreement for a CallGuard On-site installation is with a leading provider of customer experience, engagement and growth solutions and is another indication of the ongoing strength of our US pipeline. In view of this growth, and the significant opportunity that is available for our payment proposition in the US, we have accelerated our US investment plans with our headcount now standing at six US employees. This expansion and investment is expected to deliver financial benefits in the years ahead. The Group has maintained a robust balance sheet during the year and our financial strength continues to support our stated growth objectives and our investment in the business, particularly in the US. As we enter the new financial year, we are well placed to continue to build on the progress achieved over the last 12 months and therefore the outlook remains very positive for Eckoh. The Board looks forward to providing a further update at the time of full year results, which will be announced in the week commencing 15 June 2015. Nik Philpot, CEO of Eckoh, commented, "We are very pleased to be able to announce another year of strong growth in the UK that has been achieved whilst investing and successfully establishing our presence in the US. This strong momentum has continued into the new financial year and we remain confident of our prospects of further significant growth in the years ahead." *excluding amortisation of acquired intangible assets, acquisition costs, non-recurring admin expenses and expenses relating to share based payments

the software and IT services business specialising in multi-channel retail and manufacturing markets in the UK and Ireland, announces the following trading update ahead of the announcement of its interim results for the six months ended 31 March 2015, scheduled to be released on Tuesday 9 June 2015. The Group's trading results for the six month period ending 31 March 2015 ('the period') will show revenue and profit growing by just over 10% compared to the six month period ending 31 March 2014 ('prior year period'). Revenue will show growth to £9 million, compared with just under £8 million in the prior year period. Sales order intake was £4.9 million, compared with £4.3 million in the prior year period, with the existing customer base being particularly active. The order book at 31 March 2015 was very strong at £2.8 million (31 March 2014: £2.5 million) and pre-contracted recurring revenues continue to represent over 50% of total revenue. The net cash balance was approximately £4 million at the period end on 31 March 2015. The Sanderson businesses which address customers in the multi-channel retail markets, enjoyed continued growth very much driven by the expansion of mobile commerce and ecommerce. Proteus, which was acquired on 5 December 2014, has made a steady start as part of Sanderson and has made a positive contribution. The Sanderson businesses in the Manufacturing division, which are focused on supplying the manufacturing market sector with software and service solutions, delivered a flat trading performance as compared with the prior year period. The Manufacturing division's order intake improved in the period and there is a strong order book, with good sales prospects going into the second half year. The general economic environment continues to show signs of improvement, though sales cycles continue to be protracted. The Group continues to seek complementary acquisitions, but during the current year, the priority of the management is to remain focused on delivering 'on target' results. The Board remains cautious in its approach but a strong order book and healthy balance sheet together with a long list of sales prospects, provides the Board with a good level of confidence that the Group will continue to make further progress and deliver trading results in line with market expectations for the current year ending 30 September 2015.

Further to the announcement made by the Company on 2 March 2015, Mwana wishes to provide an update in respect of the notice to convene a general meeting of the Company's shareholders (the "Requisition") pursuant to section 303 of the Companies Act 2006 (the "Act") by Mr Ian Dearing and other shareholders (the "Requisitioners"), as further described in the previous announcement. Mwana has concluded its investigation into the validity of the Requisition of a general meeting and concluded that following the withdrawal from the Requisition of one of the original parties to it, the Requisitioners do not have sufficient support at the current time to require the directors to convene a general meeting under the Act. Correspondence has been received from solicitors acting for Mr Dearing disputing the Company's position, and threatening to attempt to try and convene a meeting of shareholders directly under section 305 of the Act. This position is rejected by the Company, which has reserved all its rights in the event of an attempt by Mr Dearing to convene a general meeting on the basis of the current level of support for the Requisition. Shareholders are advised to take no action at this time. Further announcements will be made as required in due course. Separately, Mwana also announces today that it will be publishing its Quarterly Operational Update for the three months ending 31 March 2015 on 16 April 2015.
