Huntsworth Health maintains success in third quarter

Huntsworth Health has maintained its strong 2011 performance in the third quarter of the year, according to parent group Huntsworth's latest interim management statement.

The dedicated healthcare arm of the global communications organisation saw 3.7 percent like-for-like revenue growth during the period, while recording "significant" international and multi-office business wins.

According to the report, these seven-figure wins will become operational during the first quarter of 2012 and will form the foundation for further growth in the next fiscal year.

The strong performance of Huntsworth Health contributed to a seven percent increase in revenues for the group as a whole, helping Huntsworth to make good on its strategy of securing two and three-year international contracts.

Sally Withey, chief operating officer of Huntsworth, said: "The pipeline for these larger mandates is good and following our brand rationalisation, our success in winning them has considerably improved in the third quarter."

According to the company's half-year report, Huntsworth Health accounted for 29 percent of the group's total revenue in the first six months of 2011.
