Continued strong growth

Following on from the fourth quarter of 2016, which had experienced strong growth (+8.9%), growth (totally organic) in the first quarter of 2017 reached +11.8%, a figure well above Syntec Numérique’s forecast, which anticipates an average growth of the sector around 3% for 2017.

This growth is driven by the Services activity (+12.5%) which is developing in all areas:

the Banking sector (33.7% of turnover) remains dynamic with in particular the ramp-up of the “Digital” teams for BNP Paribas and the full load of the Digital and Web development teams for i-BP and IT-CE ;
the Industry sector (27% of revenue) benefited from the “Application Support” bundle for AIRBUS and the takeover of Commerce projects at PSA;
finally, the Insurance and Services/Transport sectors are driven by new projects within mutual insurance companies in Niort and by the development of the Air France service center.

The Software activity (4% of turnover) recorded a turnover of 2.11 M€ with an amount of royalties of 1.3 M€.

With 127 gross recruitments over the period, the total workforce exceeded 2,100 people at the end of March. The inter-contract rate remained low at 1.8% on average over the quarter.
