us continue to grow as more and more organisations take advantage of the benefits of
outsourcing their IT infrastructure needs to a strong and trusted supplier such as iomart.
We continue to expand our skills, product sets and infrastructure to deliver an increasing
range of cloud services [http://www.iomarthosting.com/cloud-hosting ] and expect to
continue the growth we have recently enjoyed."

    Adjusted EBITDA(1) showed growth of 85% to GBP5.0m (H1 GBP2.7m) with basic earnings
per share more than doubling to 2.23p, a rise of 112% (H1 2011: 1.05p). Cashflow from
operations was GBP4.1m (H1 2011: GBP3.1m) while net cash at the end of period was GBP3.5m
(H1 2011: GBP5.3m).

    The continuing growth in the uptake of cloud services has contributed to iomart's
continuing success. Among the companies that have moved into the cloud with iomart this
year are Skyscanner [http://www.iomarthosting.com/info-centre/case-studies ] and Nova
International.

    Angus MacSween continued: "We are continuing to deliver on our strategy of focusing on
managed hosting and the growing demand for complex hosting in the cloud. Revenues are
strong and we continue to make acquisitions as well as growing organically."

    iomart Group has made three acquisitions in the past 12 months, including the addition
of a premium customer base through the purchase of Scottish infrastructure service
provider EQSN for GBP2.5m last week.

    iomart Group plc is Scottish Digital IT Company of the Year 2011 and is ranked as one
of the top 25 cloud services providers in the world by Talkin' Cloud 50.
