Giandomenico Sica, Chairman of the Board of Directors of DHH, commented: "We are pleased with the strong and continuous growth across all our subsidiaries, highlighted by a year-over-year increase in EBITDA amounting to 29% at the group level. While organic growth continued in the first semester, efforts were also made to strengthen the ground for further external expansion. In a joint venture with Seeweb, co-founder and technological partner of DHH, we launched CloudSeed, a program to invest in the most promising start-ups in our region. We also launched an internal start-up project named Sysbee, a spin-off from DHH d.o.o. with a focus on managed infrastructure. While the first semester was quiet in regards to new acquisitions, we managed to finalize the merger and consolidate all our companies in Croatia into one subsidiary. As the year started with a change of the official domain name, thus inaugurating a process with the aim to improve the DHH brand, we continued our planning activities which we expect to result in further improvement in communication with the market towards the end of this year."
