“The positive financial performance we’ve seen this year reflects a balanced combination of organic and acquisition growth, which is in line with Acora’s strategy. Our focus remains on growing contracted revenue through focusing on customer experience.  Contracted revenue increased from 70% to 79% of Acora’s total revenue in 2020, and was strengthened by the signing of close to £20M of new long-term managed and outsourced agreements.”

“In a very challenging year for all, it is encouraging to see the continued growth of Acora in terms of our people, our customer success and ongoing acquisition activity. We have clear visibility and plans in place to repeat both our organic and acquisitive growth in FY21. This will be in parallel with launching our new value proposition to further support the client experience and positively impact our key sectors and segments. The Veber business brings with it a strong team, and 50 long-standing customers who will benefit from the wider offerings and scale that Acora can provide. We’re confident we can continue  our strategy of adding good people, great customers and complementary capabilities as we add further scale in the months ahead.”
