LONDON (Alliance News) - Recruitment and outsourcing company Staffline Group PLC Friday said that earnings in the first half of the year have been in line with market expectations, while current trading remains positive.
In a pre-close trading update Friday, the company said it continues to make good progress across a number of its key growth initiatives, including its core Onsite business and its Welfare to Work division.
Earlier this week, Staffline said it had bought Leicester-based training procurement consultancy Softmist Ltd, further boosting its presence in the UK government-funded training sector after it bought Avanta Enterprise Ltd in May in a deal worth GBP65.5 million.
Staffline said it has begun combining the Avant Enterprise business with its Welfare to Work business, Eos.
The company said it will report its half-year results on July 23.
