Calyx profits up after buying spree

IT services group Calyx said that profits in the first half of the year grew by more than €1 million.

The company, which is listed on the Irish and London stock markets, has benefited from strong growth in its existing business, and from the inclusion of results from a number of acquisitions made in the first six months of the year.

Pre-tax profit came in at €1.65m, up from €642,000 in the same period last year.
