COMMENTS FROM THE GROUP CEO

The year 2014 has started up much better than 2013. Nevertheless, we feel that we do not reach a level that reflects our potential, the quarter could have been even better.

In the evaluation of a global procurement for a Group within the Life Science industry, our product got the highest rating of all participating tenders. We were still not chosen because of uncertainty regarding our delivery capabilities for global implementation projects.

At some procurements in Denmark, where we considered ourselves in a good position to win, we just missed the target by a few points in the evaluations. For instance we participated in a procurement for a Danish government agency with our Swedish product for process-oriented document and case management, also this time we received high ratings for our product.

Investing resources in bids that ultimately do not give business moves focus from other parts of our business. The balance between efforts on new procurements and sales to existing customers is a very important part of our business. In addition to the tenders above, we have also participated in another few big procurements that we do not yet know the outcome of, but we are of the opinion that we have great potential to win.

In Denmark, as we know, the municipal market was challenging for us in 2013. During the first quarter of 2014, we have taken several steps towards improved profitability for our system deliveries, however, the general market climate has not yet improved significantly, and we have some work left to reach past sales levels in this area.

The Swedish framework agreement for e-archives that were procured by the SKL (The Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions) is now active and customers have started to call-off from the agreement. However, activity is not yet high enough to provide any significant positive impact on our sales.

Although we feel that the quarter could have been better, we can still conclude that our first quarter lands on a turnover that is up 18% and operating profit that is 66 % better than last year. It's a step in the right direction but we believe we are well placed to make it even better ahead.

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS DURING THE PERIOD JANUARY – MARCH 2014

ORDER FROM THE MINISTRY OF CULTURE

Formpipe and The Danish Ministry of Culture signs a new contract expanding their solution of the Grants Management product TAS. The total order value amounts to SEK 1 million.

ORDER FROM A SWEDISH AUTHORITY

Formpipe receives an order from a Swedish authority on the ECM product Long-Term Archive. The business value for Formpipe is estimated to SEK 1 million.

MARKET

According to the Radar Group, ECM continues to be a high priority investment area for companies and organizations. Greater regulatory requirements and effective information management as a means of competition are important driving forces that have a tendency to be continually strengthened in connection with the increased amount of information. The Danish and Swedish license markets for ECM software will, according to Gartner, amount to around SEK 840 (800) million in 2014, which is an increase of almost 5 percentage points.

Formpipe targets the markets for the public sector in Sweden and Denmark as well as the international market for life sciences.

PUBLIC SECTOR

DANISH PUBLIC SECTOR

The Danish public sector is the largest individual market for Formpipe. Formpipe is the market leader in the public sector and has a broad product offering with associated services within the ECM area (document and message management, pay-ment handling and self-services / modes of cooperation). The Danish public sector is a model for efficient and digital public administration in Europe and has an express focus on investing in IT support in order to boost its internal efficiency.

SWEDISH PUBLIC SECTOR

Formpipe has a broad product offering within the framework for ECM to the Swedish public sector for compliance with regulatory requirements and to facilitate efficient and digital public administration. In the future, the company believes, as do external analysis companies, that the need for more efficient management will mean that the Swedish public sector will continue to invest in existing or new IT systems in order to realize its potential.

CHALLENGES/DRIVING FORCES IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR

Public administrations, both in Sweden and in Denmark, are facing the challenge of improving efficiency, productivity and the quality of their services. All these challenges must though be met with unchanged or even reduced budgets. Information and communication technology helps the public sector to handle challenges such as:

  • Ever increasing squeeze on financial conditions.
  • Increased demands in regard to transparency and improved service levels from citizens and companies.
  • A demographic reality that means that in future we must do more with fewer resources.

LIFE SCIENCE

Within the private sector, the company's efforts are focused strongly on becoming an established supplier within quality management (document and message management) to the life science sector. Like the public sector, this sector has strict regulatory requirements. The market is strictly regulated by the regulations of the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) which makes the segment country-independent and opens up an export market that is far larger than the company's existing primary markets.

THE FUTURE

Formpipe is a leading supplier of ECM solutions in Sweden and Denmark. The board considers that the company is well-positioned to be able to develop and strengthen its leading position while retaining good profitability levels. The company sees good opportunities to continue to utilize its experience from its successes within the public sector in Sweden and Denmark, which from an international perspective are considered models for efficient public administration, in order to target new markets and customer segments. With well-invested products, solid experience of the public sector and facilities for continued product development, the company sees opportunities to focus on the demand at EU level which with increased regulatory requirements can be expected to increase its investments in the coming years. In addition to the Swedish public sector, FormPipe Software also focuses on the life science sector, which like the public sector is a segment that is strictly regulated by regulatory requirements. The Company has developed a very competitive offering to this sector. The life science market is faced with the same regulatory requirements regardless of geographical location, which creates a very large international market. The company's strategy with focus on the public sector and Life Science creates good opportunities to be able to efficiently develop market-leading offerings and need sector-specific requirements.

The board believes that Formpipe, which is one of the largest European-based ECM suppliers, is wellpositioned with a stabile customer base, a high share of recurring revenue and a focus on customer segments with a high need for ECM solutions. At the same time, the board considers that the ECM market is a sector undergoing consolidation and views acquisitions as a good complement to organic growth.
