High inflation on cost of goods, supply chain issues with distribution and delays in project completion have also contributed to the challenges. However, I am pleased to see us moving into new business and the construction vertical, for example, has a healthy pipeline of new projects. In addition, we continue to focus on vertical depth, and our recent acquisitions in the leisure vertical, with two new businesses joining the Group in the first half of the year, demonstrates our progress with regards to our inorganic growth plans”.
