**[Argentex Group](https://www.directorstalkinterviews.com/company/argentex-group-plc/agfx.l)
Plc** (LON:AGFX) is the topic of conversation when Andrew Watson, Senior Research
Analyst at Singer Capital Markets, joined DirectorsTalk Interviews.

**What were the highlights in Argentex’s H1 interims?Initiatives in new product,
refined technology (incl. Alternative Transaction Banking) and international expansions
have driven impressive growth despite low FX volatility: revenue +28% yoy driving
13% growth in adj. operating profit. Margins are stable (~30%), reflecting investment
which will payback longer term.

**How is the volume and quality of their client base doing?1,493 corporate clients
traded in H1 (+8% yoy) with average revenue per client +8% year on year to £16.5k
despite lower volatility. This includes 305 new clients (H1’22 284) which contributed
£18.6k average revenue each, which compares favourably both year on year (+55% yoy)
and against the wider client base.

**What’s your view on progress across the company’s three pillars?Argentex has delivered
progress across all three pillars: adding headcount to grow and support an evolving
proposition, launching new technology-enabled product and growing internationally.
We would highlight an “ahead of expectations” performance in the group’s digital
platform and Alternative Transaction Banking solutions.

**Do the shares still represent an attractive opportunity for investors?The continued
execution of strategy around new product, enhanced technology and international 
expansion offers scope for growth and shareholder value creation. We also note continued
growth momentum in the face of more challenging market conditions, which is encouraging
should the backdrop improve.
