Trading Update

Kainos Group plc, a leading provider of Digital Services and Platforms, today issues a trading update for the period from 1 April 2018 to date.

The Group has had a strong start to the year with the momentum seen in the second half of last year continuing into the current year. As a consequence, the Group expects the results for the year ending 31 March 2019 to be ahead of current market expectations.

Growth in Digital Services has been very strong, driven by both Digital Transformation and Workday. In Digital Transformation, the Group continues to deliver a number of significant ongoing engagements both for commercial clients and, as part of the UK government's digital transformation programme. In Workday Implementation, the Group is benefiting from growth in Post Deployment Services and an increasing book of business in continental Europe following geographic expansion.

In Digital Platforms, Kainos Smart continued its strong growth trajectory although this performance was partially offset by Evolve where market conditions remain challenging due to lack of available funding at NHS Trusts.

Kainos' results for the six months ended 30 September 2018 will be announced on Monday 26 November 2018.
