Accelerated revenue growth from new commercial contracts

IXICO plc (AIM: IXI), the data science company delivering insights in neuroscience, today provides an update on the outlook for the Company's trading performance for the financial year ending 30 September 2018, which is now expected to be ahead of market expectations.

Based upon management results for the 10 months to 31 July 2018, reported revenue for the full year to 30 September 2018 is expected to be at least £5.1m.
