Asseco's consolidated order backlog for 2021 in the areas of proprietary software and services is currently worth over PLN 10.1 billion and is 16% higher than in the same period last year.

We had a very good half-year. Double-digit increases in results in all segments and sectors of our operations, while maintaining profitability, are a source of great satisfaction. Geographical, sector and product diversification of our business brings measurable effects. We are growing organically as well as through acquisitions. During the first 6 months of 2021, 11 new companies joined the Group, strengthening our position on foreign markets. As digitization of business processes has become the answer to many challenges faced by companies and institutions today, we observe increased demand for our solutions and services, which is confirmed by double-digit growth of the Asseco's order backlog for 2021 in each of our operating segments. This allows us to look at the second half of the year with optimism – said Karolina Rzońca-Bajorek, Vice President of the Management Board of Asseco Poland.
