During the fourth quarter, Formpipe continues to increase its share of repetitive revenues, while the share of delivery and traditional license revenues decreases. Due to this, the seasonal fluctuations between the quarters successively levels out and the historically strong fourth quarter's importance for the full year's result will decrease over the years. Our repetitive revenues continue to increase and now cover 87% (77%) of our fixed operational costs, making our future development more predictable.
For the full year, it is satisfying to see the positive effects of our new organizational structure where the Private sector business area shows a clear improvement in both sales (+ 18%) and earnings (+ 37%) compared to last year. We believe this is an area with good growth potential and see a continued positive development during 2020.
During the fourth quarter, our business were successfully certified in accordance with the ISO 27001 security standard. Information security is high on the agenda for Formpipe's customers and the ISO 27001 certification is a quality certificate that will increase in importance in procurements of Formpipe's products and services in the future.
In the public sector, we are now seeing an improvement of the market situation. After a period of lower activity, we now see more procurements in both the Danish and Swedish market. In Denmark, we also see positive effects from the new public framework agreements SKI 02.18 and 02.19.
The growth figures for ACV (Annual Contract Value) and ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue) for SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) are important indicators of our success. They show how we grow our SaaS revenues, software that is sold according to a subscription model and constitutes recurring revenue. During the year, we have generated an ACV of SEK 10 million, meaning that by year end have increased from just under SEK 40 million to almost SEK 50 million in ARR for our SaaS revenues.
With the basis of our stable cash flow that our business model with a high proportion of repetitive income creates, the Board of Directors propose a dividend of SEK 0.60 (SEK 0.60) per share. Finally, I would like to thank our customers, employees, partners and shareholders for an exciting year. We stand strengthened to continue or development of Formpipe's business and to together build a sustainable digital community built on creativity, curiosity and efficiency.
The digitalization of information creates new and growing flows of data from a number of different sources. Being able to handle these has become one of the most important challenges for companies and organizations.
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 both industry-independent and with extra knowledge of Life Science and 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 8.6 per cent in 2017-2022. The Content Services market has a total addressable forecast market in 2019 with system revenues of USD 8.3 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 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.

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.
Denmark is high up in the European Commission's measurements of "Digital Service in the public sector". Statistics Denmark's survey strengthens this picture.
The Danish public sector invested DKK 14 billion in IT in 2017. The digitalization of the Danish public sector creates value, growth and efficiency and maintains the Danes' confidence in the digital society. With the common public digitalization strategy2 2016-2020, 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

In the Private Sector area, Formpipe has a stable foundation in the CCM product, Lasernet. The global Customer Communications Management (CCM) market is mainly driven by a greater need for automation of customer communication in various channels. The software revenues in the global market are expected to increase at an annual growth rate of 13.4% from 2017 to 2021. With CCM products, content is produced, individualized, formatted and distributed from different systems and data sources to the format that best suits the Company in its communication with customers or other business partners.
Through the successful cooperation with Microsoft, Formpipe has established Lasernet as a cloud service through the global market places Microsoft Azure Marketplace and Microsoft AppSource. By expanding the cooperation to concern more products from Formpipe, the possibility is opened up for a significantly larger market. Conditions exist for example for Formpipe's products for digital long-term archiving and data quality.

The group's financial reports are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in the way in which they have been adopted by the European Union, the Swedish Annual Accounts Act, RFR 1 Additional Accounting Regulations for Groups issued by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board and in accordance with the regulations that the Stockholm Stock Exchange stipulates for companies listed on Nasdaq Stockholm. Preparing financial reports in accordance with IFRS requires that the company management makes accounting evaluations and estimates and makes assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported values of assets, liabilities, income and costs. The actual result can differ from these estimates and evaluations. This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The interim report covers pages 1-16 and the interim report on pages 1-7 is thus an integral part of this financial report. The most important accounting policies according to IFRS, which constitute the accounting standard for the preparation of this interim report, are stated in the company's most recently published annual report except for the changes in the principles of financial leasing applied by the Group from January 1, 2019 in accordance with IFRS 16. The Group's new accounting principles for leasing is described in the following section "New accounting principles applied from January 1, 2019".
The financial reports of the parent company have been pre-pared in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities issued by the Swedish Financial Reporting Board. The same accounting policies and methods of calculation have been applied in the interim report and in the most recent annual report.
FRS 16 "Leases" replaces IAS 17 "Leases" and its related interpretations. The new standard is applied as of January 1, 2019. The new standard removes the classification of leasing agreements as operational or financial, for the lessee, as required by IAS 17, and instead introduces a single model for accounting.
According to the new model, all leases result in the lessee receiving a right to use an asset during the assessed lease term and, if payments are made over time, also receive financing. Formpipe's long-term operational leases will be reported as non-current assets and financial liabilities in the Group's balance sheet. Instead of operating leasing costs, Formpipe will report depreciation and interest expenses in the consolidated income statement.
Formpipe has chosen to report the transition to the new standard with the simplified method. The relief rule not to recalculate the comparison year has been applied. The size of the right of use has been valued to correspond to the size of the leasing debt at the time of transition. A marginal loan rate has been set. The right of use has been determined retrospectively with knowledge of how the termination and extension clauses have been applied. Use rights agreements shorter than 12 months or which terminate within 12 months from the transition date are classified as short-term contracts and are therefore not included in the reported liabilities or rights of use. In addition, user rights agreements (with a new acquisition value of less than USD 5,000) have been classified as low value contracts and are not included in the reported liabilities or user rights.
Formpipe as a lessee evaluates all new agreements to see if they contain leasing components. The decisive factor in determining whether an agreement exists is the right to the main economic values when using the asset and the right to control the use of the asset and that the supplier does not have a substantial exchange right. Formpipe has decided to separate non-leasing components and leasing components into contracts related to buildings. Expenses attributable to non-leasing components shall be expensed and not included in the calculation basis for the right of use and the leasing debt. For other asset classes, nonleasing components shall be included in the calculation basis for rights of use and leasing debt. At the start of a new lease, it is assessed whether Formpipe as a lessee will choose to extend the agreement, purchase the underlying assets, or avail of early termination. In cases where the agreement is open, with no defined end date, local laws and regulations can provide ownership of the lessee. This means that Formpipe as the lessee itself has to determine which contract length is considered reasonable instead of taking into account the termination clause in the agreements. The lessee determines the contract period by assessing factors such as the property's importance for the business, its own planned or implemented investments in the leased property and the market situation for properties. When the leasing debt and the use rights are calculated, the implicit interest in the agreement is primarily applied. In cases where it cannot be determined, the marginal loan rate is used instead, which corresponds to the interest the company would be offered if the acquisition was financed with loans from a financial institution. Formpipe begins to write off its rights of use from the start date of the contract and selects the depreciation period which is the shortest of the economic life or rental period.
The Group's pro forma income statement and balance sheet have been prepared to facilitate the comparison
with the fiscal year 2018 by eliminating the IFRS 16 effect on the income statement and balance sheet for 2019. During the fiscal year 2020, the IFRS 16 effect is included in both the current fiscal year as well as the comparative figures for 2019, hence are these reports no longer necessary.

* As of January 1, 2019, the Group applies IFRS 16 according to the modified retroactive transition method, which means that the comparative figures will not be recalculated. The effect of the application of IFRS 16 means that the operating leases previously expensed on a straight-line basis over the income statement under the item "Other expenses" from Q1 2019 are expensed under depreciation and financial items instead. On page 14 of this quarterly report, the Group has presented a pro forma income statement before IFRS 16 to illustrate a comparison.
From January 1, 2019, the Group's segments are divided according to which customer groups they target. The segments are divided into SE Public, DK Public, Private and Other and reflect the Group's internal reporting and follow-up of Group management.
The SE Public and DK Public segments find their customers in Sweden's and Denmark's public sectors. Segment Private collects the Group's offers that are aimed at customers outside the public sector and are not bound to any particular geographic market. Segment Other includes the Group's older products that are not included in any of the other segments and the Group's overhead costs.
