As predicted in recent announcements by the company, Groupe Open saw its turnover grow significantly once again in Q3 2013 (+5.4%).

This confident performance is the fruit of the investments made by Open this year, in application of the group's strategic action plan with a clear focus on boosting their commercial presence: repositioning the Group by broadening the customer base, strengthening core technological partnerships to enhance the range of products and services on offer, reducing staff turnover.

The growth in turnover from international activities further bolstered Groupe Open's good results in France in Q3.

Open is thus on target to meet its turnover growth objective for the year, with a bright outlook for

2014. Furthermore, Groupe Open has confirmed that its operating profit for H2 2013 is expected to be up on S2 2012.

Annual turnover results for 2013 will be announced via press release on Thursday 23rd January 2014 after close of trading.
