Business model evolution

Summary:

  • No changes to accounting policies

  • – Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)

  • New cloud solutions recently released

  • – Cloud revenues expect to grow faster than on-prem revenue

  • – Introduce new SaaS metrics as business becomes more material

Established model (refer bars on charts):

  • Licence revenue recognised upfront

  • Maintenance revenue over time

  • Emerging model (refer lines on charts):

  • SaaS revenue recognised over time

  • Timing of cashflows expected to be similar to established model

==> picture [516 x 333] intentionally omitted <==

Charts are based on a hypothetical example assuming Total Contract Value of $360k for a three year period that is renewed for the same value for a further three years. The on-premise licence example assumes cash paid in three equal instalments. The hypothetical example is to illustrate revenue and cashflow differences between the models. It does not represent actual or intended pricing or other commercial realities. It ignores the time value of money. The charts are not forecasts.
