Zytronic plc announced an improved trading performance during the second half to 30 September 2013 and now expects the results for the year to be ahead of market expectations. Whilst subject to audit, the profit before taxation is now anticipated to be approximately £1.9 million on revenues of £17.2 million. Although the second half is generally stronger, this expected result represents a considerable increase over the £0.8 million profit before taxation achieved in the first half, principally attributable to an improved proportion and mix of touch sensor sales resulting in better margins due to production efficiencies.
