“We continue to have strong momentum in the business, with a doubling of new licence revenue,” said Intec’s Executive Chairman, Mike Frayne. “All regions and product lines are performing well in a market that is very competitive, and we have improved our earnings performance through ongoing cost management, despite the need to invest in a growing business. I believe that Intec can deliver another strong performance for the full year. In addition to this, our announced agreement to acquire the Singl.eView business from ADC will transform Intec into a company capable of delivering to major carriers what we believe will be one of the broadest ranges of OSS products in the world.”

The proposed acquisition of Singl.eView builds directly on this capability with an award-winning, tier one retail billing and customer care system used by over 70 carriers.”
