Network Rail £0.7m Customer Information Systems Purchase Order

Journeo plc (AIM: JNEO), the information systems and transport technical services group, is pleased to announce its subsidiary, Infotec, has received a £0.7m purchase order from Network Rail for the supply of customer information displays for stations operated by Southeastern Trains ("SE Trains") throughout the Kent region.

The display systems are scheduled to enter production over the next few months with the majority of the £0.7m revenue recognised this financial year and are included in management's expectations of performance for FY2023.

SE Trains serves the main London stations of Charing Cross, Waterloo East, Cannon Street, London Bridge, St Pancras, Victoria and Blackfriars. The network has route mileage of 540 miles with 180 stations, 164 of which it manages.

The purchase order is part of a £5m framework agreement secured in 2022 to replace display systems originally supplied by Infotec over the last 10 to 15 years, with the latest high efficiency LED and TFT units (the "Framework Agreement").  As well as stations in Kent, the Framework Agreement covers replacements at rail stations in Sussex (Southern Railways) and Wessex (South West Trains), for which purchase orders have already been received.   

Russ Singleton, Chief Executive of Journeo plc, commented:

"I am delighted to be making this first announcement related to Infotec since they became part of the Journeo Group in January this year, following a successful placing and acquisition. Infotec's Network Rail approved display systems are designed and manufactured in their Leicestershire factory to meet or exceed stringent reliability and performance criteria and comply with UK Rail standards. Infotec has a great reputation for quality, a substantial order book and sales pipeline, and an offering of specialist rail market products, services and software capabilities now encompassed within our Group".
