Despite revenue growth, UCS expects to more than halve bottom line earnings in the year to September.
The company says revenue should grow 22%, to R1.5 billion. Organic growth amounts to 9%, with the balance attributable to acquisitions. It did not indicate whether these acquisitions were concluded during the year, or previously.
However, headline earnings per share are expected to be between 60% and 70% lower, and earnings per share should be between 65% and 75% lower than last year.
Last year, the company reported revenue of R1.2 billion, which was a 14.5% improvement. However, earnings per share dropped 42%, to 33.3c, and headline earnings per share lost 8.1%, to 31.9c.
The company's results should be published on 24 November.
Its shares were trading 5.56% down in early morning trade, at R1.70, after opening at R1.80.
