The SII engineering consulting group has released its revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2020-2021.

Management board chairman Eric Matteucci commented that: "The third quarter of fiscal year
2020-2021 is on the path of a return to organic growth. The improvement seen during the second quarter of the fiscal year has intensified over the last three months thanks to the mobilization, determination and voluntarism of all our teams. The health and economic environment calls for caution, but the fourth quarter could post organic growth. Our sectoral and geographic diversification combined with the collective energy deployed should help achieve this ambition."
