Comarch's optimism soars after posting record result

The positive results have inspired the company to believe it can repeat the success in 2005. Janusz Filipiak, Comarch president, disclosed the enterprise will strive to have a 20% rate of growth in 2005 and try to ensure a high level of efficiency so that the profitability rate rests at 6%. According to Filipiak, to reach these goals Comarch will stop expanding its outlets and subsidiaries abroad and instead will concentrate on "better use of the existing structures in the USA, Latin America, EU and Eastern Europe." Moreover, the company will slow the rate of its employment growth. Comarch wants to take on 100-150 new people in 2005 as opposed to 400 last year. (Parkiet p. 4; Puls Biznesu p. 11) M.G.
