Starcom plc provided unaudited earnings guidance for the six months ended 30 June 2018. The preliminary draft of the unaudited accounts shows an increase of over 50% in first half revenues compared with the same period last year. Revenues for the period are expected to be around $3 million compared to $1.92 million a year ago. Gross margin is expected to be 39% compared to 47% a year ago, due to the still dominant proportion of the low margin Helios product in the sale mix in the first four months. EBITDA expected to show a loss (before options provisions) of less than $100,000, a significant improvement over the previous year, (first half of 2017: loss of $283,000). The increase in revenues results from intensified efforts to acquire larger, more strategic and world class clients who need its advanced and flexible technology to resolve the unique mission-critical problems they face in their respective businesses.
