I am delighted to report that 2001 was an extremely successful year for the Biochemical Society's publishing subsidiary, Portland Press Limited, particularly as my previous report predicted a significant increase in turnover -- it feels very good to have been right! The company achieved a profit on ordinary activities after taxation of £602244 (compared with £337419 in 2000), which was gifted to the Biochemical Society to enable it to carry out its charitable objectives. This excellent performance is a direct result of the investment that was made in information technology (IT) systems and to the successful re-organization of the Portland Customer Services Centre (PCSC), which took place in 2000.
