These patents extend Arria's intellectual property portfolio to cover recent work of Arria Chief Scientist Ehud Reiter and his colleagues at Data2Text Limited, Arria's wholly owned subsidiary.

Stuart Rogers, Chairman and Chief Executive of Arria NLG plc, commented:

"As we work to extend Arria's installed base of solutions for the management of large data sets, we continue to build its patent portfolio through prosecution of existing patent applications and the filing of new ones covering a range of innovations in Big Data management through Natural Language Generation.

"We believe that long-term shareholder value is fostered by commercial success and the creation of robust intellectual property assets, and we are pleased that the first US Patent and Trademark Office actions on our patent applications have been favorable to Arria."
