Thirdforce confident of bouncing back despite slipping into the red

E-LEARNING company Thirdforce is expecting to show a solid performance this year, even though customer numbers are likely to dwindle and the company has slipped into the red.

The technology firm — which specialises in software learning tools for company training modules and educational institutions’ curriculums — yesterday reported a pre-tax loss of e2.67 million for 2008, which was down from an e80,000 profit in 2007.

An operating profit of e183,000 for that same year turned into an operating loss of e2.66m last year.
