Acquisition of Logen Ltd.

Ideagen PLC (AIM: IDEA), a leading supplier of Information Management software to highly regulated industries, is pleased to announce that it has acquired Logen Ltd. ("Logen"), a company based in Sofia, Bulgaria specialising in the provision of audit software and related consultancy services.

Logen is a reseller of Ideagen's GRC audit management and risk assessment solution, Pentana, with customers including the Bulgarian National Revenue Agency, the Czech National Bank and the Croatian National Bank. Logen has a current team of 5 employees who have deep experience in audit-based analytics, particularly within the financial and public sectors.

The acquisition will give Ideagen's existing customers access to this expertise, as well as create a solid operational base in central Europe from which we can enhance our sales reach and future software development capacity.

The cost of the acquisition is an initial cash payment of GBP0.1m with a further GBP0.1m to be paid in cash in 12 months should Logen meet certain post acquisition targets. The acquisition will not make a material contribution to revenues or profits this financial year.
