The Company is pleased to confirm that trading in the third quarter of the year was positive, with continued momentum across its key markets.

Order intake remains strong and recent contract wins have included a $1.2m contract for the installation of a new security and surveillance system at a casino resort in the Philippines, further contract wins with Saudi Aramco, and a strategically important order for the Company's first installation, of a new security and surveillance system for a casino resort, in Cambodia.
