Jason Dixon
Environmental Group Ltd - Chief Executive Officer

Hi everyone and welcome to the call. It's obviously the first half financial results presentation. I'm also joined by Paul Gaskett, Chief Commercial Officer; and Andrew Bush, our Chief Financial Officer; if you got any financial questions. I'll run you through the result, hopefully over the course of about half an hour, and I'll, happy to answer questions live on my screen or at the end, whatever you prefer.

So results, highlights, I actually thought it was, a pretty good result myself. I fully acknowledge we had the $1.2 million dollar, one-off within Baltec, but at the same time, purely organic growth in revenue actually grew 16% for the period up to $54 million. If you took away the $6million or $7 million, that's no longer in the lithium sector that we used to earn before that seeks to collapse, they're actually up about 23% in organic top line growth, which is a great outcome.

Obviously, we're disappointed here but our number, as I said due to that $1.2 million Baltec issue. I think what you need to bear in mind though
