TRADING UPDATE
The Company is pleased to report continued trading in line with the Board's expectations, coupled with operational progress in line with the company's strategy.
We continue to benefit from a strong balance sheet with our unaudited net cash position increasing to c.£13.6m of net cash as of 30 April 2023 (31 December 2022: £12.8m), providing significant flexibility for inorganic and organic growth opportunities.

We look forward to updating shareholders again in our half year trading update in July 2023 and interim results in September 2023.
