Delcam Sets New Records for Monthly and Quarterly Sales

CADCAM developer Delcam announced that it set a new monthly sales record in December 2007, completing a record quarter to end the year. This latest achievement follows record first half sales by the company in the opening six months of 2007.

Total sales for the month reached £3.75 million, beating the monthly sales for December 2006 by more than 30%. Total sales for the final quarter of 2007 saw an increase of almost 20% compared to the same quarter of 2006. Profit performance remains in line with the November forecast.

“December is normally Delcam’s best month for software sales. We have achieved record sales in each December for several years so setting another new record is, in itself, pleasing rather than surprising,” commented Managing Director Hugh Humphreys. “However, to beat the previous December’s results by such a large percentage is a remarkable achievement and one of which everyone associated with Delcam can be very proud.”

“In our previous announcements, we have detailed the effects on our sales throughout this year of the weakness of the US dollar,” he added. “To have achieved such a high increase in sales, despite this problem, is extremely encouraging but, of course, we still need to do even better next year.”

The recent growth in sales reflected the pattern throughout the year by coming partly from increased sales of Delcam’s established Power Solution range of CADCAM programs and partly from its acquisitions during the past three years – FeatureCAM, PartMaker and Crispin. “We are continuing to develop the sales of all our products across all the countries in which we trade,” commented Mr. Humphreys. “This international approach has been particularly important for our FeatureCAM and PartMaker acquisitions, which were sold previously in a limited number of countries.”
