Edited Press Release
LONDON (Dow Jones)--Pennant Group reported Monday, for the year to 31 December 2003, a pretax profit of GBP0.7 million (2002: loss GBP1.5 million) and turnover of GBP11.7 million (2002: GBP9.0 million).
The continuing strong order bank, good cash position and strengthened balance sheet, combined with prospects for new business in all areas, gives the board confidence for continued progress in the current year.
The company's sales performance during 2003 has been in line with expectations and, in looking ahead, prospects remain good. As always, this is subject to contracts being awarded on time and running to schedule.
The strong order bank is being maintained and the positioning within potential markets is encouraging, with many new business opportunities in prospect. This situation extends to Group businesses in the U.K., USA, Canada and Australia.
In other areas the high level of interest shown in overseas markets for existing Pennant Training Systems products, such as GenFly and Hawk aircraft training systems, continues and there is potential for orders in the year ahead.
The change made to the organisation and management of Pennant Information Services Inc in the USA, with the appointment of a U.S. citizen as President and CEO, is also showing encouraging signs with new opportunities for OmegaPS software sales being identified.
