EMIS Group - Preparing for the next stage of growth

EMIS saw revenue growth from all divisions in H1, which helped to offset the additional costs incurred to strengthen service delivery. The company has worked hard to resolve customer support issues in primary care and is now focused on the IT Futures procurement bid in England. Investment in Patient is ongoing and the company expects to unveil its longer-term growth strategy at its capital markets day on 29 November. We have upgraded our revenue forecasts for FY18-20, but our adjusted operating profit and EPS forecasts are substantially unchanged.
