Indeed, through external growth, Generix Group holds a solid product offering, from a technological and functional point of view, that is differentiating on the market and triggers satisfactory performances in a difficult context. On the other hand, this financial year illustrates Generix Group's ability to grow its On Demand business while protecting its license revenues. Jean-Charles DECONNINCK, Chairman of the Executive Board of Generix Group, said: "The growth of our revenues lets us foresee an improvement of our profitability and a decrease of our net debt for financial year 2009/2010. These performances illustrate the high potential of our product offering in particular for On Demand services."
