The petition relates to sums due to the tax-man of around £417,000. The hearing of the petition is listed for 16 January 2019 but 7digital is confident that the full amount due to HMRC will be paid in advance of the hearing.
On the plus side, the company said it had completed the planned platform consolidation and restructuring of the group's operations in the final quarter of 2018, reducing the company's cost base by an annualised £6.2mln.
Several operations and offices have been closed or discontinued and staff numbers have been reduced in all locations.
All of the company's operations have remained stable during the restructuring and the move to a single technology platform for 7digital's customers.
