Trading Update

 

OMG plc (AIM:OMG) the technology group providing image understanding products for the entertainment, defence, life science and engineering industries provides the following update on trading for the financial year ended 30 September 2014.

During the second half, the Group's portfolio of businesses has traded well. Its three most established businesses Vicon, Yotta and 2d3 were all profitable for the full year. Post period end the Group disposed of its House of Moves subsidiary by way of a management-led buyout.

Group revenue and adjusted profit (excluding House of Moves) are expected to be in line with market forecasts with House of Moves presented as a discontinued item for the full year.

On a divisional basis, our Vicon business is expected to report a similar performance to last year. Yotta continues to benefit from a strengthened recurring revenue stream from its Software as a Service offerings and demonstrated strong growth in profitability. 2d3, our defence division has had a strong year with both revenue and profit significantly up on the previous year. Our consumer division, OMG Life continued to report a loss in the second half at a level similar to the first half.

As previously announced, the Group is exploring opportunities to realise value from IP within the Group and has made good progress in several areas during the second half.

The cash balance for the year remained stable year on year at £7.6m (FY13: £7.8m).

The Group is expected to announce Preliminary Results for the financial year ended 30 September 2014 on Tuesday 9 December 2014.
