REVENUE UP BY 2% OVER THE FISCAL YEAR

(1) CGE ERP activity currently being sold - refer to the press releases from January 17 and February 20, 2014

The fiscal year saw the Group record an increase of 2% in its revenue compared to the previous period over the scope of the maintained activities (excluding the GCE ERP activity branch for which the final sale is scheduled for May 2, 2014).

Fiscal 2013/2014 is marked by strong growth in sales with the number of new SaaS contracts signed more than doubling: 8.8 million euros (+118%).

This growth in sales is accompanied by loyalty of the installed SaaS base with a low attrition rate of 4.3% over fiscal 2013/2014, an improvement compared to the previous period (5%).

As such, the rate of signatures and the level of attrition recorded over fiscal 2013/2014 allow the CMRR (monthly recurring revenue after taking into account contracts that are signed but which have not started yet and cancellations that have not yet taken effect) to grow nearly 20% over fiscal 2013/2014, which makes it possible to project a sharp increase in growth in SaaS revenue over the upcoming period.

Over the scope of the maintained activities, sales of licenses are down 5%.

The Consulting & Services activity is up 5% linked to the many implementations generated by the new SaaS signatures.

The fourth quarter, down 8% in the scope of the maintained activities, is marked by:

  • A 40% decline in sales of licenses to be considered with a 116% increase in new SaaS contracts signed;
  • A 4% decline in SaaS revenue due to an unfavorable basis effect with the billing in the fourth quarter of the previous period of non-recurring over-consumption. With this phenomenon corrected, SaaS revenue is maintaining a growth rate exceeding 10% as has been the case since the 2nd quarter.

ONGOING IMPROVEMENT IN THE GROUP'S PROFITABILITY ON THE SCOPE OF THE MAINTAINED ACTIVITIES

The growth in revenue observed over the scope of the maintained activities makes it possible to confirm the substantial improvement expected in the results and in the cash flow for these same activities over the past period.
