Sage Group's <SGE.L> sales to new customers in April were roughly half the level expected as it felt the effects of a sharp economic downturn caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The supplier of software to small and medium sized firms said on Wednesday its organic revenue growth rose 5.7% to 935 million pounds ($1.15 billion) and organic operating profit was up 3% to 213 million pounds for the six months to end-March. Sage said it still expected recurring revenue to grow in the full year, but it would not be at the 8% to 9% it had previously targeted.
