Trading Update & Notice of Results
SysGroup plc (AIM:SYS), the managed IT services, cyber security and cloud hosting provider, is today providing an update on the Group's performance for the six months ended 30 September 2023 ("H1 FY24" or the "Period").
Group trading performance
The Group has delivered a steady trading performance for the Period delivering growth in high value Managed IT services revenue, which has been offset by lower Value-Added Resale ("VAR") sales. Overall, this has resulted in slightly lower Group revenue when compared to the same period in the prior year. The Group is expecting to report revenue for H1 FY24 of £10.96m (H1 FY23: £11.32m) and Adjusted EBITDA1 of £1.56m (H1 FY23: £1.68m).
At the end of the Period the Group's gross cash was £1.98m (H1 FY23: £4.22m) following payments to satisfy the Truststream year one earn-out, acquisition of 2,076,394 ordinary SysGroup shares (now held in Treasury) and the settlement of the former CEO's contractual terms. Net debt2 at the end of the Period was £3.43m (H1 FY23: £1.92m) and excludes future contingent consideration of £1.84m (H1 FY23: £2.93m).
Organisational Changes
SysGroup plc is pleased to announce the following appointments to strengthen its senior management team as it focuses on delivering an end-to-end data solution.
· Heinrich Koorts - Chief Revenue Officer (formerly Softcat plc) · Ross Humphrey - Chief AI Officer (formerly JP Morgan/Rebura) · Paul Sullivan - Chief Technology Officer (SysGroup/Truststream) · Wendy Baker - General Counsel and Company Secretary (formerly Scapa Group plc)
Heejae Chae, Executive Chair, commented:
"During the past six months, we have assessed the market opportunities and our competitive position. We recognise that most companies today are grappling with how to leverage Artificial Intelligence (AI). Whilst the potential benefits are compelling, it is not clear to many as to what these benefits are and how they can achieve them. Companies are looking for a partner who can help them build a compelling business case for AI as well as help them achieve data maturity in a cost-efficient way as they modernise their existing platform. We believe the most effective way to deliver such a result is to provide an end-to-end data solution including data engineering, networking, storage, analytics and, of course, security.
Leveraging our existing capabilities, we will invest in our operational capability and put the building blocks in place to become the partner of choice in the AI adoption journey. We look forward to expanding further on our strategy when we publish our half year results."

SysGroup expects to publish its half year results for the six-month period ended 30 September 2023 on 27 November 2023. |
Broadly flat trading statement, but forward focus upon AI and news of senior management reorganisation. |
Nice to come back to after a break in the sun! |
Not another small cap Take Over at a massive premium? |
Steaming ahead again today |
Nice 48,778 share buy at 41p at 15:21 (when the offer price was 38p I believe?) - someone's keen.... |
Sense a major announcement coming our way |
Hello gleach, thanks for the info on AQSE
I didn't realise SYS was traded on the AQSE exchange.
I can access the data within a standard trades page by adding '.GB' to the ticker, thus SYS becomes SYS.GB
This is a link...
Is thread author 'cpap man' still around? Can we add this link to the header?
If not, is it time for a new thread? |
Hi bamboo2...your 10k shows up on the AQSE exchange which I have a feeling your subscription doesn't allow you to see.
Thanks for highlighting the 125,773 trade which is timed as yesterday @ 10.35 and equates to £50k worth....interesting. |
Added another 10k, towards the end of the day, but haven't yet found a record of it in today's trade archive.
I was surprised to see a larger trade of 125,773 at 39.75 |
The last market price based chart has a bowl which confirms as valid on eod close above 38.8, target is approx 48 |
That was a delayed trade from when they were 37 offered!
They are 36.5 bid on the RSP
Not many AIM stocks trading at a 2 year high! |
Cheers bamboo2. Steady buying still coming in, notably just now a 39,475 share buy at almost the new full 38p offer price. |
riv, Dummy trades bid .3436 for 30k None to buy on auto-quote, have to use order. |
