Strong growth in the activity

Over the 4th quarter of 2016/2017, IGE+XAO enjoyed strong growth in its activity, with turnover amounting to 8,080,204 euros compared to 7,499,071 euros one year ago, which is an increase of 7.8%.

The Prosyst subsidiary, specialising in diagnostics, optimisation and simulation of industrial processes, also enjoyed strong growth in its activity. Over the entire 2016/2017 financial period, consolidated turnover for the IGE+XAO Group is up 4.7%, amounting to 29,439,262 euros compared to 28,117,938 euros one year earlier.

2016/2017 was a dense year from a technical standpoint with increased mobilisation in Research and Development efforts on the Group's most widely distributed software, SEE Electrical Expert and SEE Electrical, for which the new versions will reach the market before the end of the year 2017. Moreover, IGE+XAO launched a major version of its electrical dimensioning software SEE Calculation, including, among other things, an adaptation to the latest standard NFC 15-500.

Backed with the strong momentum in the activity and in the quality of its business model, IGE+XAO plans to accelerate its market plan focusing on intensifying commercial development in particularly internationally, strong investment in R&D and a high level of profitability.
