The numbers posted in H1 exclude the effects of the Ayima acquisition and subsequent unilateral declaration of bankruptcy by the board of Ayima. Audit opinion and outcome of the liquidation process are currently outstanding and will be included in the H1 report scheduled to be issued by WPTG on the 30th of August 2024. WPTG will continue protecting the interests of its shareholders in this matter.

"The group remains robust and resilient with impressive financial data for H1 and shows the extent of strength and maturity across the group. Despite Ayima the business continues to grow strongly", says Marco Marangoni, CEO of White Pearl Technology Group.

WPTG has a solid order book and pipeline with focused effort on business development across the group's subsidiaries. "We expect H2 to continue the trends we have been seeing recently", added Marangoni. Both organic and inorganic growth are anticipated in the future.
