Trading in the fourth quarter of 2015 continued to be strong. As a result, the Company expects that Adjusted EBITDA* for the full year will be in line with market expectations of approximately USD31million. December was a further strong month and this momentum has continued into January.
The Company is also pleased to announce that it has a strong sales pipeline and has recently signed a number of significant agreements with new customers. These new customers include two major sports betting operators, a tier 1 FX operator and the Group's first major Airline client. These new customers are expected to go-live on the SafeCharge platform in the first half of 2016. The Company will make further announcements in due course.
With robust current trading, a strong pipeline and new clients set to join the platform, the Directors look forward with confidence for the 2016 financial year.
