Achievements

With the same consolidation scope, second quarter growth was 6.4% (vs 4.2% in the 1st quarter), an increase of 5.3% for the first six months of the year. Growth was driven by digital transformation, particularly the following activities: cybersecurity, mobility, dematerialization, desktop management, RPAs, training and consulting. Employee turnover has fallen by over 4 points after peaking in late 2018.

Operating profit for the half year totaled 9.1% of revenues (¹) (²) vs 8.5% for the 1st half of 2018. The impact of IFRS standard 16 (applied since January 1, 2019 and concerning the treatment of leases) was not significant.

As at 30 June 2019, net cash, excluding debt and other financial liabilities, stood at €182.3m vs €148.3m a year earlier.
