Message from the CEO
2022 has proven to be another significant year for CM.com, with our businesses growing further after the record year 2021. That it was no easy task, is evident. 2022 was a year with many faces, with the hype and slowdown of COVID and the lockdowns, the Ukraine war, and the effects related to the impact of climate change. All were – and still are – very impactful events that affected society and corporates, including CM.com. As our human capital is a key asset to our firm, CM.com has supported and will continue to support our workforce, as we employ people from all over the world.
As CM.com completed its foundation with the acquisition of Building Blocks, we focused our efforts on the optimization of the organization to use its full potential. Technological innovations, such as GPT 3, re-confirmed the reason why we were early movers in acquiring companies such as CX Company and Building Blocks in last years; AI is a key technology for us to improve our abilities in conversational commerce and one of the drivers behind our growth strategy going forward.
The challenging market developments in 2022 underlined the importance of rolling out our growth strategy through building sales pipelines, mapping of markets to improve product offerings, while improving technologies and the agility of our organization. Although we felt the changing market conditions in 2022 financially, we remained focused on delivering the operational growth for which we planned. We grew our business cost consciously, as the pace of our OPEX growth in the second half of 2022 slowed down substantially, while underlying volumes continue to grow. That trend will continue in 2023.
One of the most important items to our cost base, is the FTE growth. CM.com grew its workforce in 2022, albeit at a slower pace than in 2021. As was confirmed with our Great Place to Work Award in 2022, CM.com targets to motivate all employees to reach their full potential within our firm. That is why we started the Female Leadership sequences in 2022 and our Talent Program, as we fully recognize the importance of the right balance between capabilities and opportunities within our workforce, independent of gender, age, or origin. CM.com now focuses on using the talents within its Human Capital to further improve its gross profit growth.
For 2023 we are off to a good start. As previously indicated, our foundation is now ready, and we will focus on growing our business and profits. Pipeline is building well, and first order wins are coming through. Going forward we will focus on gross profit growth – as we have now integrated all acquisitions and use all strengths to grow our presence in all markets in which we are currently active. That means that we no longer steer predominantly on revenue growth, although that of course does remain a key performance indicator. It is now all about profitable growth.
As a guidance we therefore feel comfortable to reiterate our goal to be structurally EBITDA positive by year end 2023 and structurally cash flow positive by year end 2024.
I would like to thank all employees at CM.com for their contribution to this result in 2022. We are proud of our employees and their accomplishments and look forward to a continuation of our journey in 2023.

In FY 2022, CM.com continued to execute on its growth plans globally. Revenue grew 19% year-over-year to €283.2 million, gross profit grew 15% to €72.0 million and gross margins reached 25.4%. This is the best result on revenues and gross profit that CM.com has ever realized, keeping in mind the market conditions in 2022 and the fade-out of the COVID-related tailwinds. Underlying business continued to perform well where double-digit growth was realized among Messaging volumes, Payment volumes, ARR, and Ticketing volumes. As society is adapting more to the use of cloud-related products and services to increase customer experience and engagement, CM.com is well-positioned to meet all demands in customer experience and grow our presence in all segments across the globe in the coming years.
Performance per business segment
Revenue increased by 16% to € 236.3 million in FY 2022 compared to € 204.2 million in FY 2021.
CPaaS messaging volumes grew to 2 billion in Q4 2022, which was the highest level in 2022, mostly driven by SMS traffic and a marginal uplift in Voice minutes compared to previous quarters.
Gross profit fell 6% to € 34.7 million from € 36.9 million in FY 2021, as the comparison base was impacted by the fade-out of COVID-related services in voice minutes and some margin pressure in messaging traffic in different parts of the world towards year end. That margin pressure is being mitigated going into 2023.
Furthermore, in Q4 2022 traditional peaks in traffic during the special holidays like Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Singles Day were not as strong as in previous years, affecting activity with a number of our clients.
Net Dollar Retention rate in CPaaS for Messaging excluding Voice showed a healthy 119%. The CPaaS NDR including Voice reached 100%, with a continuing low churn rate of 4%.
The underlying number of messages increased by 24% to 7.2 billion for FY 2022 and by 18% to 2.0 billion in Q4 2022 year-over-year whereas the number of voice minutes fell by 34% to 455 million minutes in FY 2022 and grew 1% to 97 million minutes in Q4 2022.
Market research shows that going forward, the CPaaS market is expected to grow substantially larger and that the product mix will see a further shift from the use of messaging towards the use of voice, chatbots and rich text messages.
CM.com is proud to see that market research firms, such as Juniper Research and Gartner continued to recognize CM.com as "Established Leader" in CPaaS in 2022.
Voice minutes
(# million)
Revenue increased by 47% to € 25.4 million in FY 2022 compared to € 17.3 million in FY 2021. That shows another year of strong growth in SaaS overall. SaaS is core to our portfolio line up. This is expected to contribute further to the product mix shift towards higher margins and more value-add solutions.
Gross profit increased 49% to € 22.3 million in FY 2022 from € 15 million in FY 2021.
Revenue and gross profit growth were supported by the acquisition of Building Blocks earlier in 2022, which largely expands CM.com's AI capabilities. 2022 focused on the commercial and technical integration of Building Blocks, and we are now seeing a good pipeline buildup, which is expected to materialize in new contract wins and long-term renewals in the coming period.
Our SaaS solutions cater to environments of both economic expansion and contraction by offering solutions that facilitate high customer conversion or retention and therefore revenue growth, while reducing costs of servicing customers. With the new AI capabilities in the SaaS domain, we expect more conversions to follow. That supports our view that we will see a greater contribution to our profit growth from SaaS in the future.
ARR increased by 29% to € 29.3 million in FY 2022 from €22.7 million in FY 2021, which is our highest level to date.
Our ARR grew marginally in Q4 2022 versus Q3 2022. This relates to market circumstances, where recession fears attributed to longer sales cycles towards year end. In 2023, although market conditions may continue to be challenging, we anticipate ongoing good momentum in SaaS as we already see some order wins coming through.
CM.com is proud to see that market research firms, such as Juniper Research, Gartner, and Forrester, continued to recognize CM.com as an established leader in SaaS and as a newly established leader in CCaaS during 2022.
Annual recurring revenue
(x € million)
Revenue grew by 16% to € 13.4 million in FY 2022 compared to € 11.6 million in FY 2021.
Gross profit was up 3% to € 7.4 million from € 7.2 million in FY 2021.
Total payments volume processed increased to € 1,983 million in FY 2022 which is an 81% growth rate over FY 2021 where € 1,096 million in payments volume was processed. In Q4 2022, there was an 18% increase in payments volumes processed to € 623 million quarter-over-quarter.
That strong increase in volumes was realized while CM.com was working to integrate the recently acquired processing payment platforms and leverage on the technology. As CM.com is recognized as a fully licensed Payments Service Provider, we will launch a new payment processing platform during 2023. The novel platform will enable CM.com to better handle larger volumes while optimizing our cost base. That should further support future profit growth in Payments. The gradual migration of customers will commence early 2023 and continue throughout the year.
Total payments processed
(x € million)
Revenue significantly increased by 107% to € 8.1 million in FY 2022 compared to € 3.9 million in FY 2021.
Gross profit was up 109% to € 7.6 million leading to a notable gross margin of 93.0%, up from € 3.6 million in FY 2021 and a gross margin of 92.3%.
Total tickets handled in FY 2022 amounted to 14.6 million with 4.0 million of that occurring in Q4 2022. This was a 59% increase over FY 2021 and 43% increase over Q4 2021. Ticketing sector enjoyed a strong recovery in events as societies came out of lockdown, and FY 2022 also marks a full year from the launch of our ticketing team in the UK, showing increased demand of ticketing solutions internationally. In 2023 this momentum is expected to continue, as we already see the first order wins coming through. CM.com plans to implement expanded service offerings to support further growth in this segment.
Tickets
(# million)
OPEX
Since our listing in 2020, we have invested heavily in expanding our organization and geographical reach, to support future growth. R&D maximization, implementation of new CRM and HRM tooling systems, collaborative facilities, investments in security software, and hiring top talent all contributed to the building of an efficient and effective organization.
We have now reached the point where we can reap the benefits of these investments, optimize our work force, and leverage on our technological capabilities.
In the coming period, CM.com will continue to grow its business while keeping a tight control on its cost base. OPEX excluding the one-off bad debt hit in Q2 increased by 42% to € 94.3 million in FY 2022, which is a sharp deceleration from the 91% growth rate in FY 2021. The OPEX growth rate in 2022 is due to the completion of implementation projects, growth of FTE, increased employee costs related to travel, educational initiatives, and conventions following the lifting of COVID restrictions.
During 2022, CM.com started to integrate operations and implement cost control measures. That had an immediate effect, as OPEX excluding one-off grew by 42% year-over-year, with H2 2022 year-over-year slowing down to 34%.
One of the main reasons for that slowdown, is the control of our FTE growth. In 2022 our FTE increased to 930 per year end, a 23% increase year-over-year. Most of the FTE growth happened in H1 2022, after the acquisition of Building Blocks. The natural attrition in FTE was taking effect in the second half of 2022, as we realized a slight decrease as of Q3 and a significant slowdown from the 51% growth rate in 2021. CM.com has additionally reduced the number of external contractors by replacing those capabilities with our own staff. This trend is expected to continue and can provide lower costs going forward.
As a result, normalized EBITDA came in at minus € 22.3 million, while reported EBITDA (including one-off bad debt reported during H1 2022 of €4.2 million) amounted to minus € 26.5 million. Further cost control and flattening of OPEX levels are a vital element in achieving our EBITDA objective in 2023.
FTE development
CAPEX
Capital expenditures (CAPEX), including hardware, software, and infrastructure amounted to € 26.7 million (of which € 15.4 million is capitalized hours), up 41% versus FY 2021 and represents approximately 9.4% of revenue. Given the investments made in 2022 towards hardware and software, this CAPEX level is higher than average. As a result, the total CAPEX and CAPEX over revenue is expected to decrease during 2023. CM.com targets in the midterm a CAPEX over revenue ratio of 5%.
Funding & cash position
As of December 31, 2022, our non-restricted cash position stood at € 47 million. Cash out since end of December 2021 amounted to approximately € 53 million, of which around € 10 million was allocated to the acquisition of Building Blocks in H1 2022 and € 4.2 million due to the reported bad debt hit in Q2 2022.
Increased control of OPEX and lower CAPEX will reduce cash consumption going forward. That means that we believe the current cash position is comfortable to execute our strategy of continued organic growth while returning to structurally positive free cash flow in the future.
Outlook
CM.com managed to generate significant growth in 2022, as we focused on the execution of our growth strategy. Although markets were challenging, CM.com continued to see significant underlying revenue growth in all segments. Our products and services have supported our clients in the past, independent of the market conditions, and continued to do so in 2022.
CM.com will therefore continue its structural growth path as laid out in the Path to Profitability in 2023.
Looking further ahead, we will continue to strengthen our market leadership and innovative strength in conversational commerce. With the momentum in AI and the pace by which new technologies develop, we believe CM.com is on the right track for the future.
This means that for 2023, CM.com will:
- further decelerate the pace of OPEX growth in relation to revenue to a flat level in absolute terms, compared to 2022
- continue to focus on significant gross profit growth
- use its innovative technology to further enhance AI capabilities in conversational commerce, and
- adjust cost levels further if needed to reach the EBITDA objective
COVID-influenced comparison bases year-over-year will have passed after Q1 2023, which means our business is anticipated to show steady trends in the course of 2023, if market conditions allow.
Going forward, CM.com will focus on gross profit growth and OPEX. Revenue will no longer be our most important KPI and, as such, we no longer provide guidance on revenue.
We reiterate our guidance to be structurally EBITDA positive towards the end of 2023 and confirm our guidance to be structurally cashflow positive towards the end of 2024.
