DecideAct A/S [ACT]
Company Announcement No. 7-2021:
NASDAQ FIRST NORTH GROWTH MARKET, COPENHAGEN
28 March 2021
Highlights:
For DecideAct, 2020 was all about transformation, particularly in these three areas:
- Launching a new, even more robust version of the product
- Preparing the organization to support future growth and scaling
- Initiating marketing and sales activities in Denmark, Canada and France
- Securing funding/financing to realize the growth strategy.
In 2020, DecideAct prepared the organization to support future growth and secured financing to realize the growth strategy. A new version of the product and a new mobile app was launched. And the company completed two funding rounds in preparation for a very successful listing on Nasdaq First North in December 2020.
The IPO was a critical factor in securing funds to grow sales and expand the organization to handle them. It gave DecideAct the needed financial resources of 18,5 million DKK to pursue its vision.
- While the proceeds from the IPO are expected to provide sufficient liquidity to execute on DecideAct’s growth strategy and by year-end 2020, the company had a cash reserve of 15,514,930 DKK and a total asset of 29,705,229 DKK.
- In 2020, DecideAct invested 2,995,753 DKK to further develop the platform.
- The year-end result is a loss of 6,620,645 DKK after tax—an expected result in the light of heavy investments in entering the Danish market, optimizing the organization and listing at Nasdaq First North.
- In the second half of 2020, DecideAct initiated a number of marketing activities to be intensified throughout Q1. The product has been taken to the next level and an unparalleled, international sales force is developed.
- These efforts are already paying off. In the first quarter of 2021, several new contracts and partner agreements in Denmark, France and Iceland has been signed.
- DecideAct has entered new industries and grown the pipeline significantly.
- Marketing and sales activities in France and Canada are initiated.
- With the contracts already closed and those that are in prospect, DecideAct will be halfway to the 2021 target by the middle of Q2.
CEO and Co-founder of DecideAct, Flemming Videriksen states: “We see every reason for optimism. DecideAct is on track to reach the ARR of 9.5 million DKK by the end of 2021.
