Intercede, the Leicester based supplier of identity and credential management software, reported strong performance in a trading update for its financial year to March 2011 driven by increasing industrial demand for its digital security products.

Intercede anticipates results will show sales c.10% ahead of 2009/10's £6.2 million, a pre-tax profit of c. £2.0 million (2010: £510,000) and year end net cash £6.0 million (2010: £4.7 million).

Stronger growth is expected over the next 12-24 months as they look to new markets and partners.
