"Trintech continues to deliver robust growth across all key financial metrics. This success will continue to be underpinned by the on-going need for corporate organisations to strengthen their governance platforms as they rebuild after the economic downturn," said the company's president Paul Byrne.
"In addition, the ever-increasing scope of corporate and financial regulation underpins Trintech's strategic focus on helping organisations to plan for and deal with this burden," he added.
