LONDON (Alliance News) - EMIS Group PLC said Friday it has traded in line with expectations in the half year to end-June, boosted by contributions from two acquisitions it made in the second half of 2013.
The software company said that, in addition to organic growth acquisitions, Ascribe and Digital Healthcare made positive contributions, and further contract wins are expected to boost its performance in the remainder of the year.
In its Primary and Community Care division, the roll-out of its EMIS Web for general practitioner doctors continued to progress; at the end of the year there were 3,751 live EMIS Web GP practices in England and Wales, up by 424 from the end of 2013.
In its Community Pharmacy division, EMIS said it saw further success as it launched a suite of integrated products to connect pharmacists, general practitioners and patients. In Secondary and Specialist Care, it saw further contract wins, and said the roll-out of its upgraded diabetic retinopathy software was almost complete.
The company will announced its half year results September 5.
Shares in EMIS were trading down 0.1% at 719.00 pence Friday morning.
