Expansion ahead

Halma has announced record results
with profits up 9% to 86m and
revenue rising by 1% to 459m. The
UK-based group plans to augment
its organic growth efforts through
acquisition of complementary
technology companies, as it has done
for many years. Halmas subsidiaries
operate in three main market sectors:
Health and Analysis, Infrastructure
Sensors, and Industrial Safety.

Halma companies operate as
independent entities, while reaping
the benefits of a larger multinational
parent. The company is
seeking successful and profitable
companies that are closely allied to
any of its current market sectors,
100m is earmarked for acquisitions.
