15 Outlook Servelec Group is in a robust financial position with a strong balance sheet. Cash generation on track to return to normalised level with net debt balance expected to reduce further by the year-end. Servelec HSC is underpinned by steady revenue streams from Healthcare and Education. Improving pipeline in Corelogic but remains Q4 weighted due to timing of licenses. Within Servelec Automation, we see a building pipeline of opportunities for Controls, particularly within Oil & Gas, but customer deferments in other areas will temporarily slow growth prospects. The Board remains positive about the longer term prospects for the Group.
