The third quarter is usually a quarter with lower intensity. This year, despite this and the current pandemic, we are delivering a growth in recurring revenues with 10 % and an EBITDA adj margin that increases by SEK 3 million, which corresponds to a margin of 18.1 % against 15.7 % previous year. We are satisfied with this and it underlines the strength of our business model and organization.
The acquisition of EFS Technology is already contributing to the improvement in earnings. The company is fully integrated into our operations and we have begun to realize the expanded growth opportunities we have identified through this acquisition. From the start, we have changed the business model for new sales from traditional license sales to SaaS / subscription, a change that in the future will provide an increased growth rate in recurring revenues.
Our transition to work remotely continues to work well. We have now successfully adapted large parts of our business. An example of this is our annual customer meeting for the Swedish public sector, which this year was conducted entirely digitally. It attracted almost twice as many participants as normal, with much appreciated results.
We are stable with good finances and a high proportion of recurring revenue, which now covers 85% of our fixed operating costs. We continue to develop our business with a focus on initiatives for increased growth.
Data and information become more and more important for the financial development: it is the foundation for many new products and services, which leads to productivity and resource efficiency gains in all sectors of the economy. Being able to take advantage of the possibilities of digitalization has become one of the most important issues of our time. The benefits of being able to collect, process and present data are extensive.
Formpipe's products are used to create, store, distribute, automate, relocate, archive and manage information, data and metadata regarding e.g. scanned documents, email, reports, records, business documents or information from other source systems.
The goal is to be able to refine and analyze content from one or more sources, to thereby provide the right insights by the right people receiving relevant information when they need it. It is in the Enterprise Content Management (ECM) market that Formpipe has grown to become a market leader in the public sector and a strong challenger in the private sector where we digitalize and streamline customer communication in sectors such as retail, manufacturing, life science, energy and water as well as legal.
The growth in the market is fueled in large part by the organizational and corporate-wide need to streamline operations and meet legal requirements and regulations. To be able to get the value out of the collective amount of information at companies and organizations, applications and services are needed – in order to securely – collaborate, search, analyse, process and distribute data and content. Growth drivers tend to gain strength as the amount of data and information increases. Intelligent information management is a high priority area.
Gartner's forecast for the global market is an average annual growth of 9.4 per cent in 2018-2023. The Content Services market has a total addressable forecast market in 2021 with system revenues of USD 10.5 billion1.
An important part of the change of the ECM market is also that the development is moving increasingly towards cloud-based solutions, where the customers pay for what is used and where costs for development, operations, maintenance, upgrade and support are included in the running agreement. The transition to SaaS is taking place very quickly now and Gartner estimates that the SaaS revenues will reach up to 40 per cent of the total sales of software in 2022.
This development is well in line with Formpipe's reality where growing numbers of the Company's customers
1 Gartner: Enterprise Application Software, Worldwide, 4Q19 Update
choose to shift to Formpipe's cloud services for the standard products and with the Company's development of service modules that can process information both from Formpipe's existing systems and other systems.
In the Danish public sector, Formpipe is a market leading vendor of software within Enterprise Content Management (ECM). The digitalization of the Danish public sector creates value, growth and efficiency. The public sector sets ambitious goals for the development towards a more digital public sector in the next few years. Digital solutions and automation create opportunities to meet the growing welfare needs and at the same time increase the service to the citizens.
The employers' organization Dansk Industri believes that a modernization and digitalization of the public sector can free up DKK 20 billion2 by 2025. Money that can then be fed back to the public sector and contribute to increasing the level of service. Formpipe has extensive knowledge of the opportunities and challenges that the Danish public sector will face in the future.
The government in Denmark urges public organizations to act as the stable purchasing power in society and to help private companies to get through the financial turmoil. However, some customers will still be in need of re-planning to postpone projects for practical or technical reasons.
Formpipe's TAP platform is installed on the Board of Agriculture to support the process of EU's joint grants for agriculture. The planned EU CAP-2020 reform has been delayed due to the uncertainty surrounding Brexit and now Covid-19 risks to further delaying it. The continued delay of the CAP-2020 reform thus results in increased uncertainty in this business area.
Around SEK 45 billion is invested in IT in the public sector every year. The Swedish Government's ambition is for government agencies, municipalities and county councils to be the best in the world at using the possibilities of digitalization to create an efficient public sector – a simpler daily life for private individuals and companies, more jobs and greater welfare. Digital solutions and automation create opportunities to meet the growing welfare needs and at the same time increase the service to the citizens. Formpipe has extensive knowledge of the opportunities and challenges that Sweden's municipalities, county councils and agencies will be facing in the future.

The National Agency for Public Procurement in Sweden is clear in its message to the public sector in Sweden:
In practice, however, some customers are judged to be in need of re-planning to postpone projects for practical or technical reasons. There is also reason to believe that, for these practical reasons, fewer new procurements will be initiated than would otherwise have been expected.
The global ERP software market was estimated at USD 35.81 billion in 2018 and is expected to reach USD 78.40 billion by 20263. As cloud solutions are becoming increasingly accepted due to their scalability, reliability and flexibility, many ERP customers are changing their views on their internal IT architecture. This shift, where customers see the benefits of moving to the cloud, opens up new opportunities for Formpipe. Lasernet is a product that complements ERP systems and enables business documents to be delivered in exactly the format and layout desired. Lasernet continues its strong growth internationally, a positive development that is primarily a result of Formpipe's close collaboration with Microsoft and their offering in the cloud (Azure) regarding Microsoft Dynamics. Lasernet is a natural complement to Dynamics and improves the customer experience through efficient document management. Microsoft supports the marketing of Lasernet, for instance through their global market places Microsoft Azure Marketplace and Microsoft AppSource.
There is potential to expand Formpipe's offering with more products through this channel. This may include, for instance, our product Long-Term Archive, which can make it easier for companies and organizations to execute on their cloud strategy. By providing Long-Term Archive in Azure, customers can move all their business systems to the cloud without the risk of losing valuable information. Both Gartner and Microsoft find this area (often referred to as Cloud Migration or Application Retirement) as a significant growth area.
Within the business area Private Sector, the risk of negative impact of Covid-19 is assessed as greater than for Formpipe's other two business areas. New sales are mainly driven by our partners selling the product Lasernet as part of ERP system implementation projects, such as Microsoft Dynamics etc. At present, the demand is good but there is reason to believe that if the pandemic becomes long-lasting, new ERP investments will come to be pushed for the future. There is also a significant risk that customers within the private sector will end up in financial problems with missing payments as a result and that existing agreements within Support & Maintenance and SaaS will be lost.
When the pandemic is over, the possible deferred ERP investments are estimated to have created a pent-up need with a demand that is higher than normal at that stage.
