Pre-close Trading Statement
Nasstar (AIM: NASA), the hosted desktop cloud service provider, is today providing a pre-close trading statement following the end of its financial year ended 30 September 2013.
Live Hosted Desktop subscribers have risen 33% since October 2012 to over 2,400. The Directors are particularly encouraged by recent contract wins and the Company's current pipeline.
Turnover for the full year will be in the region of £2.0 million. During the year ended 30 September 2013 the Company has traded within management's expectations and made positive progress from both a sales and technical infrastructure perspective. We have identified during the year additional services we can provide around our core Hosted Desktop product which we expect will increase the average revenue per user and further enhance the value proposition of our cloud services.
Charles Black, CEO of Nasstar, said:
"We believe we have an opportunity to materially increase our recurring revenue in the new financial year as we sign up new customers and increase the provision of additional services we are now offering to help businesses which are transforming their IT by moving to our cloud service."
