Dr John Wilson, Executive Chairman of ETX Capital said: “Despite challenging markets, the Company grew revenues by 35% and has successfully diversified its revenue stream, reducing the dependency on any one business unit or customer grouping. Revenue growth is critical to the Company and is being achieved through geographic and product expansion. The Company has launched in Germany and is launching in other countries. The product range has been expanded with 6,000 instruments, an iPhone trading application and full CFD trading suite. This growth is being pursued while at the same time maintaining a disciplined approach to costs. In 2010, the Company pursued a rigorous policy of efficiency gains that have resulted in cost savings and an operating margin on incremental revenue of 60%. The Company expects to grow through 2011 and is targeting a substantial increase in profitability and returns on equity, over the medium term, which are above the industry average.”
