Good performance despite a more challenging climate in Q3

Over the first 9 months of the 2008/2009 financial year, the Generix Group posted revenue of €51.1 million, up +38% on the first 9 months of 2007/2008 (+3% on a pro forma basis). The publishing business grew +35% (+7% on a pro forma basis), with a sharp rise in recurring revenue, ASP and maintenance.

The pure publishing revenue component thus rose 2 points to 56% of consolidated revenue.

The Group posted revenue of €17.6 million, up +26% on Q3 the previous year, down 5% on a pro forma basis.

In the current economic climate, which is notably seeing investments being postponed, the ASP/SaaS (Software as a Service) model is clearly becoming the model where demand is focussed: the Generix Group posted +25% pro forma growth in Q3 in its ASP/SaaS revenue. Over the same period, maintenance moreover grew +9% on a pro forma basis, with the Generix Group benefiting from the recurrence of its business model.

Major contracts in France and abroad

During Q3 the Group signed major contracts in France with FNAC Eveil et Jeux and Monoprix, for the Generix Collaborative Entreprise and Infolog software. SNECMA, Messier Bugatti and V33 SA chose the B2B data transfer platforms from the Influe software for their intra- and inter-company data transfers.

The quarter was marked by dynamism abroad, in particular in the Southern European and South American markets covered by Generix Group subsidiaries. The Group notably entered into an agreement with FNAC Espagne in respect of the Infolog software.
