Investment summary

Investment in broadening the product range is paying off, as shown by the recent three-year EckohPAY deal with VFS, the imminent installation of EckohASSIST at a UK-based transport organisation and the launch of the new EckohPROTECT service for agent-assisted credit card payments (which keeps credit card details confidential from the agent). Eckoh announced it has sold its 27.5% stake in Telecom Express (which was fully impaired in the accounts) for £100,000 cash, payable in three equal instalments in June 2012, August 2012 and February 2013.
