Organic growth allied with the integration of acquisitions Comunica and IDN gave voice and data integrator Redstone's revenues a shot in the arm in its yearly results, published this week.
UK and Ireland revenue for the 12 months to 31 March was up 78 per cent to £200.7m with 14 per cent of the growth coming organically. Operating profit was £3.2m after a loss of £0.4m in 2007.
Redstone also indicated it had successfully integrated acquisitions Comunica and IDN and had won several eight-figure contracts including projects with the White City retail centre and two major US investment banks, including JP Morgan.
