ANALYSIS
In the first half of 2021, the Group achieved organic growth of +20.9% in relation to a budget of 13%, and showed profitability of 13.3% in relation to a budget of 13%.
This outperformance concerns all the entities of the Group and illustrates an extremely robust backlog. The very Large Account positioning of the Group explains these excellent dynamics.
The R&D initiative managed by Sword GRC is an alternative to the Group’s acquisition policy. The plan must hence pave the way for significant outperformance in relation to the Business Plan presented on 25 January last.

POST-CLOSURE EVENTS
The integration of the Swiss company AiM, acquired on 20 July last, is in the course of completion according to our plans.

2021 OUTLOOK
The Group will outperform in 2021 in relation to the targets budgeted.
