In Southern Europe, revenues fell by 12.6% in the first quarter of 2014 compared with the same period in 2013. The biggest impact was on Employee Savings, which saw a €1.3 million decrease in revenues due to the loss of a major client in 2013.

NORTH AMERICA (Q1: €14.9 million, +43.7%)

 

Revenues in North America increased by 43.7% thanks to the contribution of CapitalStream (acquired on 22 March 2013) for the full 1st quarter in 2014. This increase in business scope for North America represents a net contribution of €5.1 million to the region's revenues.

Outlook:

 

Linedata anticipates that revenues for the first half of 2014 will remain at the same level as those of 2013 due to the decrease in order intakes recorded at the beginning of the year and the negative effect of the expected decrease of business in Savings and Insurance.

 

Next communication: publication of revenues for the 2nd quarter 2014, on 29 July 2014, after close of trading.
