Achievements
In an environment that is as buoyant as ever, driven by digital transformation (mobility, connected objects, big data and analytics, cybersecurity, cloud, etc.), revenue growth was up 9.5% with constant structures (up 8.6% overall, given the sales of assets during the year).
Totaling €485m, the target revenue was exceeded, despite enormous recruitment pressures.
Operating profit (*), consistent with the forecast, stood at €44.9m, i.e. 9.3% of revenues (compared with 9.3% in 2015 and 9.5% in 2016).
Net new hires offset the effect of changes in scope (5,028 employees at the year-end).
During the year, net cash and cash equivalents increased by €14.5m, standing at €153.1m at the year-end.
The final annual results will be published on Wednesday, March 7, 2018 after the stock exchange closes.
(*) currently being audited and after inclusion of the 0.3% cost of bonus shares.
Outlook
As usual, forecasts for the current year will be posted along with the Group's 1st quarter revenues.
