Trading Update

Rosslyn Data Technologies plc (AIM: RDT), the provider of a leading cloud-based enterprise data analytics platform today announces a trading update for the six month period ended 31st October 2015.

We are pleased to report that over the first half of the year, the trading environment has remained positive and the Company was able to build on the existing growth trajectories. The foundations we have laid so far have proven to be solid and this is notable in our recent client acquisitions of a further two FTSE 100 and two FTSE 250 clients.

Our direct sales team continues to make encouraging progress in our target verticals and we are pleased to report that a previous client has recently returned and signed a contract worth more than three times its original annual value.   

Complementing this, our relatively new partner program which is focused on enabling industry leading consultancies with the RAPid platform, is seeing its relationships broaden and deepen.  A clear example was the recent announcement by Genpact of the 'Genpact's Incubation Program' which includes Rosslyn as one of the key providers.  Elsewhere, another partner has successfully used the platform to extract data from 11 clients and analyse transactions worth in excess of $50 billion.   

Our progress and careful execution has been reflected in the Group's key metrics; our client acquisition rate is accelerating; the average cost of acquiring a new client is trending lower and the average lifetime contract value is trending upward. These metrics are underpinned by a client churn rate that remains below five per cent.  The management's focus on achieving cash flow breakeven is progressing and remains on track which the Board believes is encouraging evidence of an emerging, sustainable and valuable business model.

We expect solid progress to be made across all fronts in the second half of the year and look to the future with confidence.
