Birmingham-based CADCAM developer Delcam is pleased to announce that, in line with the trading update made on 18 December 2012, it achieved a new one-month record in December 2012 for orders of software licences and maintenance contracts. Orders increased by more than 10% over the December 2011 figure, completing a record quarter to end the year.
The growth came not only from the company’s established markets in the automotive and aerospace industries but also from newer markets, such as the dental sector. There were particularly strong performances by the company’s Beijing and Philadelphia offices, its Italian subsidiary and its Korean joint venture. In addition, the year has seen a large number of significantly improved results from Delcam’s international sales network.
This latest achievement follows the highest-ever first-half sales by the company, in the six months to 30 June 2012, continuing the trend that has seen the company set new record levels of sales for five consecutive half-year periods.
Clive Martell, Chief Executive of Delcam, said, “December is traditionally the best month of the year for our software business and it is encouraging to see that we continue to set new records. I am delighted that Delcam has ended an already strong year on a new high.”
