CRAYON GROUP HOLDING AS FINANCIAL REPORT Q4 2016
Management commentary – Q4 2016 / YTD December 2016
Fourth quarter 2016 marked a strong finish to the year with organic revenue and EBITDA increase of 18% and 17% compared to same period the previous year, respectively. During 2016, Crayon continued to pursue its "SAM first – Cloud first" strategy, which was manifested through a year-on-year ("YoY") gross profit growth of 46% for business area Software Asset Management (SAM) and a global "best-in-class" cloud mix of more than 45% of products sold been categorized as cloud products within the Software business (+12 pp. compared to end of 2015). The strong results in these areas demonstrate that return on investments are starting to materialize. Similarly, Crayon has over the last years invested significantly, financed over the P&L, in establishing a global position which in FY 2016 had a negative EBITDA2 impact of approximately MNOK 77. Going forward, Crayon expects to see positive contributions from these markets in 2017 and beyond. Towards the end of 2016, Crayon covered ~80% of the global addressable market and no additional market entries are planned.
Crayon has a proven, robust and scalable business model, demonstrated by strong growth and profitability in core markets; For the full year 2016, the Nordics3 delivered a YoY gross profit growth of 11% while at the same time improving the combined EBITDA by approximately 16% compared to FY 2015. Furthermore, the Nordics have a large and stable customer base, with c.30% of gross profit being contractually recurring. The strong performance in the Nordics is largely explained by a mature organization that optimizes the use of Crayon IP & tools to deliver high quality services to customers.
Financial performance outside the Nordics continued to improve in 2016, with the exception of Start-ups 20156 and US which were still in a start-up phase. Growth Markets4 and Start-ups 20145 improved its EBITDA2 in 2016 with MNOK 4 and 17 compared to FY 2015, respectively. Significant investments were made in US during 2016 (negative EBITDA2 impact of MNOK 44), fueled by a strong commercial momentum and customer interest. Current investment rate is substantially reduced as a strong team is right sized and the business model is established (demonstrated by first month with positive EBITDA in December 2016 in the US). There is a strong strategic rationale behind Crayon's geographic expansion plan, which was further reinforced in 2016 through several international customer wins, strengthened vendor positioning and improved economies of scale.
During the last couple of years, Crayon has made significant investments in developing cloud IP & capabilities, e.g., self-provisioning portal, automating SAM and cloud services. As a result, Crayon is now leading the cloud transformation in the global software market with a cloud mix that is 1.4x better than peers. Furthermore, Crayon has invested in and introduced hyper scalable indirect business models that allow partners to more effectively provision and administrate cloud services to their end-customers. As these business models are recurring by nature (typically monthly invoicing), significant recurring business is expected going forward.
During 2016, Crayon also implemented a set of comprehensive cost leadership and working capital programs to improve the company's profitability and cash situation. These group-wide programs are expected to yield an annual cost savings of MNOK 30-40 and continue to improve the working capital position. In July 2017, Crayon's existing MNOK 650 senior secured bond matures, and the company and its owners are confident that refinancing will be secured in full within maturity of the bond.
Financials
Q4 2016
The underlying gross profit growth in Q4 2016 was strong across all markets and business segments, totalling up to gross profit in Q4 2016 of MNOK 332.5 vs. MNOK 324.0 in Q4 2015, i.e. +3% YoY. However, when adjusting for one-offs related to intercompany eliminations in Q4 2015, YoY gross profit growth was around +10% on like for like basis. Gross profit growth YoY in Q4 2016 from a geographical perspective was primarily driven by:
1) Established Nordic Markets3 grew from MNOK 207.0 in Q4 2015 to MNOK 226.7 in Q4 2016, i.e. +9% YoY.
2) Growth Markets4 had a negative gross profit growth from MNOK 55.2 in Q4 2015 to MNOK 49.6 in Q4 2016, i.e. -10% YoY. The YoY decline in Q4 was mainly driven by the German subsidiary (MNOK ~6 YoY gross profit decline) as some licensing deals were pushed into q1 2017.
3) Start-ups 20145grew from MNOK 10.1 in Q4 2015 to MNOK 15.6 in Q4 2016, i.e. +54% YoY.
4) Start-ups 2015 excl. US6 grew from MNOK 1.5 in Q4 2015 to MNOK 3.2 in Q4 2016, i.e. +116% YoY.
5) US (incl. Anglepoint) grew from MNOK 26.9 in Q4 2015 to MNOK 30.7 in Q4 2016, i.e. +14% YoY.
Q4 2016 EBITDA2 was MNOK 63.6 compared to MNOK 54.3 in Q3 2015 (MNOK +9.4, or +17.3% YoY). The YoY decrease in Q4 2016 EBITDA was primarily driven by:
1) Decreased profitability among the Growth Markets4 . EBITDA decreased from MNOK 6.5 in Q4 2015 to MNOK 4.5 in Q4 2016, driven by the German subsidiary (MNOK 4.6 YoY decline) as some licensing deals were pushed into q1 2017.
2) Increased investments in Start-ups 2015 excl. US6 . EBITDA decreased from MNOK -3.9 in Q4 2015 to MNOK -5.4 Q4 2016.
The above negative Q4 YoY drivers were more than offset by:
1) Increased profitability in the Established Nordics Markets3 , growing EBITDA from MNOK 72.7 in Q4 2015 to MNOK 83.8 Q4 2016.
2) Increased profitability in Start-ups 20145 , growing EBITDA from MNOK -8.6 in Q4 2015 to MNOK -3.3 in Q4 2016. The positive YoY development is in line with historical vintage development of new countries signifying the future embedded EBITDA among the relatively new markets entered.
3) Increased profitability in the US (incl. Anglepoint), growing EBITDA from MNOK -4.3 in Q4 2015 to MNOK -3.3 Q4 2016.
The US experienced a very strong finish of the year, with encouraging Q4 and December 2016 EBITDA results with MNOK -3.3 and +2.2, respectively (first month with positive EBITDA in US combined). In wake of weak trading YTD September 2016, several initiatives were put in motion in the US. About 25% of the workforce were terminated and stringent cost focus and savings plan are put in place. These initiates have now started to materialize in terms or reduced cost base. On the commercial side, both Crayon US and Anglepoint experience a very strong commercial momentum which will yield improved results in 2017.
YTD Dec. / FY 2016
Gross profit growth for FY2016 was strong across all markets and business segments, growing from MNOK 914.9 FY 2015 to MNOK 1,128.4 FY 2016, i.e. +23% YoY and +16% YoY pro-forma adjusted1 . From a geographical perspective, the newly established markets (Start-ups 20145 and 20156 ) are growing fastest, while the Established Nordic Markets3 continue to show strong double digit growth numbers which underpins Crayon's unique offering and go to market model across all markets independent of maturity. Gross profit growth from FY 2015 to FY 2016 from a geographical perspective was primarily driven by:
1) Established Nordic3 Markets grew from MNOK 684.0 FY 2015 to MNOK 757.7 FY 2016, i.e. +11% YoY.
2) Growth Markets4 grew from MNOK 167.5 FY 2015 to MNOK 182.8 FY 2016, i.e. +9% YoY.
3) Start-ups 20145grew from MNOK 35.0 FY 2015 to MNOK 60.4 FY 2016, i.e. +72% YoY.
4) Start-ups 2015 excl. US6 grew from MNOK 1.8 FY 2015 to MNOK 10.3 FY 2016, i.e. +470% YoY.
5) US (incl. Anglepoint) grew from MNOK 88.71 FY 2015 to MNOK 100.7 FY 2016, i.e., +13%1 .
FY 2016 EBITDA2 was MNOK 105.2 compared to MNOK 113.7 FY 2015 (MNOK -8.6 or -8% YoY). The YoY decrease was primarily driven by: 1) Increased investments in the US (incl. Anglepoint), reducing EBITDA from MNOK 10.41 FY 2015 to MNOK -44.0 FY 2016. 2) Increased investments Start-ups 2015 excl. US6 , reducing EBITDA from MNOK -9.7 FY 2015 to MNOK -21.2 FY 2016. 3) Increased HQ costs driven by IP and structural capital investments, reducing EBITDA from MNOK -21.2 FY 2015 to MNOK -25.3 FY
The above negative YoY EBITDA drivers were partially offset by the following:
1) Increased profitability in the Established Nordics Markets3 , growing EBITDA from MNOK 176.8 FY 2015 to MNOK 204.4 FY 2016.
2) Increased profitability in Growth Markets4 , growing EBITDA from MNOK -1.1 FY 2015 to MNOK 3.1 FY 2016.
3) Increased profitability in Start-ups 20145 , growing EBITDA from MNOK -26.7 FY 2015 to MNOK -9.4 FY 2016. The positive YoY development is in line with historical vintage development of new countries signifying the future embedded EBITDA among the relatively new markets entered.
Business areas - Review

For FY 2016, all business areas demonstrated a positive YTD gross profit growth, where SAM (+46%), licensing (+24%) and XSP7 (+17%) showed the largest YoY growth. Consulting experienced a gross profit growth of +6% YoY, driven by both Cloud and Solution consulting. Cloud consulting grew its gross profit from MNOK 125.3 in FY 2015 to MNOK 130.8 FY 2016 (+4% YoY), while Solution consulting grew its gross profit from MNOK 159.7 in FY 2015 to MNOK 170.4 FY 2016 (+7% YoY).
Balance sheet items
Working capital is seasonal, yet fairly predictable through the year with a seasonal pattern of working capital build up in q1 and q3 and unwinding of working capital in q2 and q4. Over the last 36 months, trade working capital (incl. public duties) has on average increased with MNOK ~20 per year driven by gross profit growth and changed product mix, yet partly offset via other working capital levers. During 2016 the Company has increased its focus on working capital management, which has continued to yield positive results, and the Company will continue to focus on optimizing the working capital level.
The net cash position as of 31 December 2016 was MNOK 227.9 compared to MNOK 236.3 at the beginning of the year, and MNOK 23.4 as of end Q3 2016. Cash conversion from operations in FY 2016 corresponds to 133% of EBITDA2 which signify the Company's strong cash generation from operations.
Net interest bearing debt incl. Anglepoint's interest bearing promissory note, as of end December 2016 was MNOK 451.7 (excluding restricted cash), corresponding to a leverage ratio of 3.66x EBITDA8 . The Company had headroom with regards to its bank covenants.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements - Period ended 31 December,2016
Note 1 - General
The Company is a Norwegian limited liability company and has prepared its consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the EU. The consolidated condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International AccountingStandards ("IAS") No. 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". The interim financial information has not been subject to audit or review.
The accounting policies applied by the Group in these interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2015.
Gross profit means operating income less direct cost, i.e. raw materials and supplies.
EBIT or "operating profit" means Operating Income less Total operating expenses. EBITDA, when used by the Company, means EBIT adjusted for exceptional items, impairment of non-current assets and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures from other companies. The Company has included EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because management believes it provides useful information regarding the Company's ability to service debt and to fund capital expenditures, and provides investors with a helpful measure for comparing its operating performance with that of other companies. Exceptional items is defined as extraordinary and non-recurring items in accordance with GAAP.
Note 2 - Seasonality
As with all licensing service providers, Crayon is heavily dependent upon successful sales during the final quarter of the year. Activity normally declines again at the beginning of the new year, before normally increasing again in the second quarter. However, usually the fourth quarter outweighs the second quarter, resulting in lower revenue for the first half year and increased revenue for the second half year.
