Question: Maria Christina Stormont - Numis Securities Limited, Research Division - Analyst
: Tintin Stormont from Numis. Three questions for me. First, on the Cyber business. When you talk about some stability in North America, and
obviously, it's annualizing into year-on-year declines in North America. Are we -- if we look at that slide on Cyber Security revenue and adjusted
EBIT, are we looking at that GBP 40.3 million as sort of the run rate on a half year basis is kind of where it's bobbling along? Can you remind us of
kind of seasonality?
Question: Maria Christina Stormont - Numis Securities Limited, Research Division - Analyst
: Okay. And then secondly, in terms of the global delivery in Manila and Mike, you talked about some earlier contracts that you're winning. And
without that, you wouldn't have won them. Just interested in the flavor of kind of what's the scale up that's being required, for example, by that
infrastructure company. Because at the moment, I think there's 15 people in the Manila office, and I think it's scaling up to maybe 80 by the year-end.
What's the kind of the blend of the contracts that sort of kind of you're bidding for? And how much sort of outsourcing -- offshoring? Are they
wanting to see in those contracts? And maybe just thirdly, just as I have the mic, in terms of Escode, are there any incentives for the actual management
team there? Or could you just remind us if there are any incentives in terms of, sort of kind of being able to complete the strategic review for that
business?

SEPTEMBER 27, 2023 / 8:00AM, NCCG.L - Full Year 2023 NCC Group PLC Earnings Call
Question: Maria Christina Stormont - Numis Securities Limited, Research Division - Analyst
: And from memory in terms of the capabilities, you really wanted to build was really that core consulting scale rather than sort of responding to
problems as it were. What metric can you give us to say that sort of kind of upskilling or reskilling or the mix? And how successful are you in
convincing very good consultants that work somewhere else that this is a real opportunity and they should go work for NCC?
