The company's Board expects the Group to deliver further growth in line with its strategy during this new financial year, moving the Group into EBITDA positive territory.
A spokesperson for the firm said: ''The Board is pleased that these results demonstrate the success of initiatives announced in December 2022 to focus on profit and working capital improvement initiatives. The benefit of these in the financial year amounted to £0.7 million, double initial expectations.
''The Board is determined to accelerate revenue growth from business development, sales, marketing and other commercial initiatives without compromising its disciplined approach to costs and working capital management.
''This will allow existing production capacity to be better utilised and support the business in becoming cash generative and then earnings per share positive, in line with the strategy set out in February 2023.''
