This year we have completed the disposal of four businesses: Secure Solutions and Services, AMT Sybex, Specialty Insurance, and Trustmarque. As a result, we have received total proceeds of over £750m from previously announced disposals, exceeding our £700m target, six months EARLIER than originally announced.
We expect the revenue growth in the first half of 2022 of up to 1%.
With a solid platform of secured revenue, a strong pipeline of contract opportunities and markets driven by demand for cost-effective digital solutions, we remain confident of delivering revenue growth in 2022.
As outlined during the 2021 full-year results, we expect profits in 2022 to be significantly weighted to the second half, with a reduced EBITDA margin reflecting the full-year impact of prior-year contract losses, structural decline in our closed book Life & Pensions business, and operational changes in the Army Recruitment contract.
We remain on track to deliver positive free cash flow in 2022.
We continue to expect a MATERIAL REDUCTION in net debt by the end of the year.
