ForecastAND aims to achieve world-wide coverage for the content of all its current and future databases, and is confident that increases in investments and efforts will produce fast growth. The decisions of leading companies to either use AND's products and services, or actively to market these themselves, convinces us that the business strategy is correct. For 1998, AND expects to achieve a year-on-year growth in turnover of at least 70%, with higher growth in subsequent years. AND now expects that the recent significant investment in the business will be reflected in the results for 1998 and that improved net margins will be achieved through economies of scale. Accordingly, the Management is very optimistic for 1998.
