Pre-Close Trading Update - 23 November 2007

System C Healthcare plc (AIM: SYS), a leading provider of information solutions and services to the healthcare sector, provides a trading update prior to entering into the close period in respect of the results for the six months ending 30 November 2007, and confirms that it is on track to meet consensus market expectations for the full year.

Trading is progressing well in both the professional services and product development divisions of the business.

In particular, the National Programme for IT is gathering momentum with an increasing number of successful deployments. System C's staff are working with NHS Connecting for Health (CfH) and Local Service Provider teams to support many of the go-lives across the country. System C has extended its support into most care settings and is now working with acute, community and mental health hospitals and with Ambulance and Primary Care Trusts. Its recent contract with CfH is progressing well and the Company is moving into many areas of deployment support, including the new Summary Care Record and clinical systems deployment.

The integration of IQ Systems Services Ltd, a company acquired in July 2007, has been completed successfully and System C is already seeing the anticipated benefits of the synergies between both businesses from client, product and services perspectives.

System C's Chief Executive, Dr Ian Denley said: "We have worked hard expanding our client base over the last twelve months and we are performing well on all of our contracts. We are working with Connecting for Health, Local Service Providers, the independent sector, third party systems suppliers, a wide range of NHS Trusts, and other healthcare providers such as the Isle of Man Government. The Board expects full year performance to be in line with consensus market expectations."

System C will announce interim results for the period on 23rd January 2008.
