Comments from Richard Leon, CFO
The expected underlying profit reflects an effective implementation of the first year of our Corporate Strategy as outlined to shareholders in our March presentation.
During the year we generated approximately US$14 million in cash that allowed us to absorb the impact of US$3.6 million in restructuring and other expenses as reported in our first half results, as well as a return of a total of US$9 million (8 AU cents per share) in dividends to shareholders during the financial year.
The focus on the execution of our Corporate Strategy resulted in solid double digit sales growth in all regions with the exception of Asia Pacific which achieved 9% growth. Overall, worldwide sales delivered a second successive year of double digit growth. Subscription sales continue to be strong up 26% to US$32 million when compared with previous corresponding period.
