Commenting on today’s results, Andrew Taylor, CEO, said, “I am pleased to report my first set of financial results for Intec following my arrival as Chief Executive Officer in January 2008.

“After a thorough business review during my first three months in the post, one thing is clear; Intec is a company with significant market position, a high level of customer relevancy, and enormous potential. I feel privileged to take responsibility for ensuring that Intec fulfills this promise, of which I believe it is fully capable.”

John Hughes, Non Executive Chairman, said, “During the first half we enjoyed good growth in emerging markets but performance was impacted by the expected reduction in the managed services business and delays in the closure of contracts in both CALA and North America.

“However, a number of these deals have either closed or are at the latter stages of closure and we have a clear line of sight to achieve our objectives for the full year. We continue to look forward with cautious optimism.”

On 8 May 2008, Intec announced that it had received a very preliminary approach in relation to a potential offer for the Company. In accordance with Intec’s regulatory obligations, shareholders will be updated further in due course.

A presentation to analysts was held at 9.30am at the offices of College Hill, The Registry, Royal Mint Court, London EC3N 4QN. The entire presentation will be available on the website: http://www.intecbilling.com
