Chairman statement

I am pleased to report eg solutions' results for the first half of FY 2018.

During the period under review, we have delivered robust trading in line with our targeted growth strategy implementing direct sales and distribution via our in-house resources and global partners and thereby better positioning the Company for profitable growth. Revenues for the period increased 105% to GBP5.13m, which underpins the strong period we have had. We maintained the strong momentum gathered in the second half of the previous year, securing multiple major contracts with global firms for our best in class back office optimisation software. New contract wins and existing customer orders have seen our order book of recurring revenue grow to GBP21.4m.

Post-the period end in September 2017, Verint, a indirectly owned subsidiary of Verint Systems Inc, a c.$2.3Bn US analytics company listed on NASDAQ, announced a recommended a cash offer to acquire all of the issued and to be issued share capital of the Company.

In the period since 11 August 2017, the Company's mid-market closing share price has been in excess of the price per share offered by Verint under the Offer. The Board believe however, that the increase in the share price prior to the announcement of the Offer of 5 September 2017 was entirely driven by small volumes of retail purchases, causing the share price to rise as a result of the limited liquidity of the Company's shares. In particular, we believe that the mid-market price prior to 5 September 2017 was not reflective of a price at which any significant volume of the Company shares could be bought or sold in the market. The Board consider that the Company has long suffered from an illiquid shareholder register which can give rise to volatility in its share price. Moreover, we understand that, so far as we are aware, prior to 5 September 2017 the last institutional price at which the Company's shares traded, was on 23 May 2017 at a price of 71.7 pence, some 40.8 pence (35%) below the Offer price. Between 23 May 2017 and 5 September 2017, the Board do not believe that there were any institutional trades and the median trade size was only 2,000 shares, with all purchases and sales since that date being driven by small volume trades. Other than in the period since late July 2017 and before 5 September 2017, so far as we are aware, there were no trades in the Company shares at a level at or above the Offer price in the last decade.

Importantly, the Board believe that the level of the Offer represents an attractive exit price when viewed against the fundamentals of the business, against the way comparable small technology companies are currently valued by the market and against the most recent higher-volume share trades. It also represents an attractive premium of 53% and 4.1% against the volume weighted average price of the Company's shares over the six and three month periods respectively prior to 5 September 2017.

If the acquisition is approved this will see the Company's market-leading back office optimisation solution marketed to a much wider global audience. With larger distribution and economies of scale that Verint can offer, this should see the Company's software global footprint extended to become a much larger dominant force within the back office optimisation industry across multiple new markets and sectors.

For full details of the proposed acquisition please see https://www.investegate.co.uk/verint-ws-holdings/rns/recommended-cash-offer-for-eg-solutions-plc/201709050700047948P/.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my fellow Board members, employees and our shareholders for their continued support over the period and look forward to updating the market on the progress of our proposed acquisition by Verint at the appropriate time.

Nigel Payne

Chairman

Financial review

The Board is pleased with the strong performance in H1 2018. The Company continues to underpin revenue with a strong order book which has increased by 32.1% over the last 12 months. Gross margin has returned to previous levels with the six months ended 31 July 2017 delivering 68.7%, an increase of 15.1% on the same period last year.

The Company has generated GBP0.86m cash from operations which has supported the continued investment in product development with R&D capitalisation of (GBP0.84m) (H1 2017: (GBP0.73m). Cash remains at a strong level at GBP2.35m, an increase of GBP0.69m from H1 2017. This is supported by a positive working capital movement as a direct result of higher revenues. Trade and other receivables were GBP2.83m (H1 2017: GBP1.26m) predominantly driven by higher accrued revenue. Trade and other payables were GBP2.85m (H1 2017: GBP2.01m) driven by higher deferred income.

The Company has continued to benefit from the Research and Development tax relief with a recognised tax credit of (GBP0.13m) (H1 2017: (GBP0.13m)) and an effective tax rate of (43%) (H1 2017: (520%)) in the reporting period.

The non-recurring expenditure in the current year relates to legal costs relating to the proposed acquisition.

The Company continues to expect minimal impact on revenues as a result of Brexit and has the relevant polices in place to control any foreign exchange risk as it arises. However, the Company continues to believe that increased economic uncertainty will put pressure on businesses to reduce costs and the Company remains well positioned to optimise the opportunity this affords.

EPS has been calculated using the following methodology:

Basic earning per share are calculated by dividing the earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders by the number of weighted average ordinary shares during the period. The number of shares excludes shares held by an Employee Benefit Trust.

For Diluted earnings per share, the number of ordinary shares in issue is adjusted to assume conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares. These represent share options granted to employees.

At 31 July 2017 there were 1,307,827 (2017: 1,397,821) share options outstanding that could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future, but are not included in the calculation of diluted EPS because they are anti-dilutive for the periods presented.
