​Chairman's Statement 
Last year saw both the continued development of trends within the industry and some unexpected results. The domestic British market saw further steady growth but could be overtaken by US sales next year. As in 1997, sales in the USA rose sharply with the successful release of three new computer games. However, hopes of the European market showing the same rate of growth were affected by a strong pound.

Computer games incresed their domination of sales in 1998 with the football game The Golden Boot: France 98 selling over 100,000 units in World Cup year. Other sports titles are now amongst the company's top brands.

The company also enjoyed a sharp rise in sales of educational products. Our new range of interactive multimedia products Schoolware launched in late 1997, is now a top-selling brand. Further Schoolware titles to be launched this year should ensure continued growth in this market.

Sales figures for 1998 show very clearly the changing face of the company's activities. Millennium Software is now a producer of entertainment and educational products. In order to adapt to these markets, the company will have to expand by increasing its product range and reducing its development times.

Moreover, the company faces new challenges in distribution. Large retail chains with pan-European buying power are becoming increasingly dominant in the distribution of computer software. These superstores now offer competitive prices and a narrow product range based on top-selling titles. With computer shops, they now account for nearly two thirds of sales.
