Nick Jarmany, CEO of Quixant commented: "I am delighted with the performance of the Group over the first six months of the year. Our core gaming business is going from strength to strength and has continued its track record of revenue and profit growth. I am particularly pleased to see our progress in the largest gaming machine manufacturers and our increasingly diversified customer base. As we continue to diversify our customer base and revenue streams our historic second half weighting will reduce.



The Densitron division since acquisition in November 2015 has performed well. We have worked hard to leverage the benefits of the combined business and introduced new strategic initiatives which we believe will enhance performance. We are also being introduced to the wider industrial marketplace and seeing opportunities to leverage Quixant's capabilities and infrastructure in a number of sectors.

Quixant is in an excellent position to continue its track record of profitable growth. Our share of the gaming market is growing fast, although in percentage terms is still relatively modest. We have an excellent reputation and are a highly trusted partner of many major gaming machine manufacturers. Densitron has grown strongly and we believe that the enhancements we have introduced will lead to continued growth in both revenue and profits.

We remain on track to achieve full year market expectations and are well placed to continue our record of strong growth."
