FY17 was particularly strong and demonstrates the possibilities of getting it right with revenue growth of 43% while EPS increased 726% to 1.9c on the back of improved margins. Recurring/Service revenues are part of the overall sustainability and security of the business moving forward (currently at ~37% of total revenues).

Company is entering a growth cycle over the next 2-3 years and the last 3 years has given it time to position itself for sustained growth... Company will start tendering for bigger and more complex jobs as it gains more experience while partnering with global players.
...
Recent capital raising ($5.1M @ 25c) puts it in a strong position to fund growth. Management has done very well to get the company profitable and poised and have a substantial stake in the business.
