CEO Hans Tino Hansen says:
“The year's first nine months has resulted in continued strong growth in revenue of 25% with a cost increase of 4%, leading to strong and positive development in all financial figures. The cost increase is mainly the result of increased investments and activity in sales and marketing. This will continue during the coming quarter. These investments will boost the sales pipeline and sales in Q4 2021, as well as during 2022.
As providers of Intelligence as a Service (analysed data in the form of intelligence), based on a SaaS business model with license-based recurring revenue, one of the most important metrics for us is the Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR). For the first nine months, the total ARR increased by 23% to DKK 14,654M. At the same time, the churn was 1.7 %, which again is a testimony to our high client satisfaction, the quality of our products, as well as the close relationship we have with our clients.
In Q3, we launched a dedicated sales and marketing campaign for the new product: LandRisk Logistics. This led to product trials by a range of new potential clients, as well as a continued dialogue with existing leads. As the lead time is considerably longer for LandRisk than for our maritime products due to the complexity of this client segment's organisations and their operations, we must remain patient, even if everyone in the involved teams is eager to deliver the deals. The current pipeline does look promising, however.
Based on the first nine month's financial figures and the assumptions of the business climate for the rest of the year, our guidance for 2021 has now changed from 15-30% revenue growth to 20-30%, equating DKK 18.8M to 20.5M in top line revenue. However, the increased investments in primarily sales and marketing, may result in an EBITDA around zero or a small positive or negative figure. The net result will remain negative.
Finally, the management team and the Board of Directors are looking forward to finalise and present the growth strategy for 2025 during Q1 2022.”
