Managed service provider Maintel has been doing rather well since it wrote a cheque for Azzurri.
According to the company’s latest results, the firm has seen its numbers swell thanks to the on going contribution from the acquisitions of Azzurri and is looking forward to gains in the second half as the benefits of the Intrinsic deal start to filter through.
Last year saw Maintel reporting revenues up by 114 per cent to £108.3 million with pre-tax profits also going up by a healthy 52 per cent to £11.1 million with recurring revenue hitting 73 per cent.
The firm is on track to hit similar revenue growth with H1 delivering a 68 per cent increase from the same period last year, to £63.8 million from £38.1 million with gross profit up by 50 per cent to £19.6 million
Maintel is now one of the largest communications integrators in the UK, with combined revenues of around £150 million and a staff of around 700. The first half has included more integration of the Azzurri business and more uptake of the cloud services that the channel player has developed in-house.
The firm has invested in its own ICON cloud platform, which has helped it grow by 55 per cent.
Maintel acquired Intrinsic for £5.25 million at the start of August which gave the firm access to Cisco gold partner status, the Avaya Edge Diamond level and a strong background in network security and unified comms. The £48.5 million deal for Azzurri was hatched out in April 2016.
