Conference call details
In connection with the publication of the results for Q4 2024, Netcompany will host a conference call on 28 January at 11.00 CET.
The conference call can be followed live via https://netcompany-as.eventcdn.net/events/annual-report-2024 For further dial-in details please visit the company's website; www.netcompany.com "We realised revenue growth of 7.6% (constant 7.4%) and adjusted EBITDA margin of 16.8% (constant 16.9%) in 2024, which was another year of high macro and geopolitically uncertainty.
I am pleased to see the impacts of our significant investment into our operation materialising in continued growth and an improvement of more than 53% in our earnings compared to last year. This, combined with the significant work spent on business development in the last quarter of the year comforts me in Netcompany's ability to deliver continued growth and margin expansion going forward.
During the year we have welcomed more than 1,700 new employees to our Group and at the end of 2024 we were more than 8,250 impressive individuals whom, together with our customers, will pave the way forward for continued success – for all parties.
Despite the continued uncertainty on both macro and geopolitical matters we expect to grow between 5% and 10%, and deliver an adjusted EBITDA margin of between 16% and 19% in 2025. At the same time, we reiterate our mid-term adjusted EBITDA margin target of 20%, but defer the timing for realising DKK 8.5bn in revenue to 2027. We remain committed to a total redistribution of cash of at least DKK 2bn to our shareholders by 2026, however, due to ongoing strategic considerations we are not initiating a new share buyback programme at this particular point in time.
These are truly exiting times, and I look forward to continue to grow Netcompany successfully with all our stakeholders in 2025."

CONTINUED PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW Q4
Reported revenue grew 6% (constant 5.7%) compared to Q4 2023 and amounted to DKK 1,678.2m in Q4 2024. Revenue from public and private clients increased by 8% and 1.9%, respectively, compared to the same period last year. Growth was driven by continued recovery in the Danish part of the Group as well as strong growth in Netcompany-Intrasoft and the Netherlands.
Client facing FTEs grew 5.9% and average FTEs in Q4 2024 amounted to 7,705.
Gross profit increased 6.7% to DKK 488.5m in Q4 2024, yielding a margin of 29.1% compared to 28.9% in the same period last year. Gross profit was positively impacted by DKK 17.7m more in licence revenue in Q4 compared to the same quarter last year but somewhat offset by a decrease in gross profit in Denmark, UK and Norway.
In Q4 sales and marketing costs were DKK 16m, while administrative costs were DKK 243.1m, both in line with the same quarter last year.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 12.8% to DKK 275.3m in Q4 2024 compared to DKK
244.1m in Q4 2023. The adjusted EBITDA margin was 16.4% (constant 16.5%), an improvement of 1 percentage point compared to the same quarter last year. The increase was driven by significant improvement in Netcompany-Intrasoft and Netherlands.
Amortisation was DKK 28.9m in Q4 2024, in line with the same period last year. Operating profit (EBIT) amounted to DKK 193.6m in Q4 2024 compared to DKK 165.9m in Q4 2023 equal to an increase of 16.6%.
EBIT margin was 11.5%, compared to 10.5% in the same quarter last year. Net financials were negative DKK 40.5m in Q4 2024, compared to DKK 38.2m in Q4 2023. Loss from joint venture and associates were DKK 3.5m in Q4 2024, compared to DKK 0.9m in the same quarter last year.
Profit before tax increased 17.8% to DKK 149.5m mainly driven by the increase in EBIT.
Income taxes in Q4 2024 were DKK 32.4m compared to DKK 61.3m in the same quarter last year. The effective tax rate was 21.7% in the quarter, compared to 48.3% in
Q4 2023. The extraordinary tax rate in Q4 2023 was mainly caused by non-deductable interest in Netcompany Denmark and completion of tax audit in Netcompany-Intrasoft regarding 2017-2020 resulting in an additional tax expense.
Net profit amounted to DKK 117.1m in Q4 2024, compared to DKK 65.6m in the same quarter last year.
Free cash flow increased from DKK 382.6m in Q4 2023 to DKK 532.4m in Q4 2024, driven by improved operating profit and the development in working capital.

The public segment was positively impacted by new tender wins, and the private segment by the increased focus on large strategic projects.
The Danish business unit realised a gross profit margin of 38.5% in 2024 compared to 37.2% in 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 19.4% to DKK 758.9m in 2024, yielding a margin of 24.6% compared to 22.1% in 2023. The improvement in the margin was a result of higher utilisation and administrative costs on level with 2023.
Client facing FTEs were in line with 2023 as we continued the ongoing rightsizing of the pyramid.
Netcompany-Intrasoft
In Netcompany-Intrasoft, revenue grew by 10.4% to DKK 2,303m in 2024 compared to DKK 2,085.8m in 2023. The revenue growth in Netcompany-Intrasoft was driven by the
public segment, including the EU, which combined grew 13.1%, while the private segment grew 2.7% in 2024. In the greek public segment, the Recovery and Resilience Facilities (RRFs) continued to accelerate the number of new projects.
Gross profit margin was 21.9% in 2024 compared to 19.9% in 2023. Since licence revenue constituted the same percentage of revenue as in 2023, the improvement in gross profit margin was solely driven by better utilisation and project execution.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 13% in 2024 compared to 11% in 2023. This improvement was due to the positive development in gross profit margin.
Client facing FTEs increased by 9.9% in 2024, in line with revenue growth.
Netcompany UK
Revenue in Netcompany UK declined by 8.7% in 2024 to DKK 589.7m compared to DKK 646.1m in 2023. The decline in revenue was caused by the developments in the public segment, where the UK general election in July, led to delays. Growth in 2025 will be supported by expected increased public spending as funding for new digitalisation initiatives are released and approved strategic projects initiated and accelerated.
Gross profit margin in Netcompany UK was 19.3% in 2024 compared to 25% in 2023. The decline in gross profit margin was a result of the project delay and time spend on business development.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 8.3% in 2024 compared to 13.2% in 2023. The decrease in margin was an effect of the decline in gross profit and cost spend on severance payments related to rightsizing of the pyramid structure in Netcompany UK.
Client facing FTEs declined 6.6% in 2024. During 2024 Netcompany UK rightsized the pyramid structure to align client facing FTEs with demand.
Netcompany Norway
In Netcompany Norway, revenue amounted to DKK 344.7m and grew by 5.9% in 2024 compared to 2023. Revenue grew 11.5% in the public segment and in the private segment revenue were in line with 2023. Public segment revenue gradually increased throughout the year as revenue from the ongoing ramp up on the Avinor project started to materialise.
Gross profit margin increased 2.4 percentage points to 16% in 2024, driven by improved project execution and utilisation.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 1.8% compared to negative 3.2% in 2023. Improved utilisation and lower administrative costs led to the increase.
Client facing FTEs were in line with 2023.
Netcompany Netherlands
Revenue in Netcompany Netherlands grew by 34.4% in 2024 to DKK 200.1m compared to DKK 148.8m in 2023, driven solely by the public segment. In the Netherlands, revenue was positively impacted by increased product and platform sales.
Gross profit margin was 35.5% in 2024 compared to 21.3% in 2023. The significant increase was a result of better project execution and the increased level of product and platform sales.
Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 19.3 percentage points to 21.9% in 2024. The improvement was driven by better project execution.
Client facing FTEs grew by 15.2% in 2024.
Revenue visibility
Netcompany Group A/S Strandgade 3, 1401 Copenhagen Company Registration no. 39 48 89 14 Company Announcement No. 6/2025 28 January 2025
At Netcompany, we present revenue visibility for the next 12 months based on two parameters: the total value of committed engagements, which includes fixed price engagements and service agreements, and ongoing time and material engagements with a high likelihood of conversion or prolongation.
Revenue visibility encompasses both contractual and non-contractual committed engagements. Contractual committed engagements refer to the total value of engagements where a clear, mutual agreement on delivery and payment has been established with the customer, approved by both parties, and where payment is expected. Non-contractual committed engagements are highly expected engagements without formal contracts.
The revenue visibility reflects the expected revenue streams from these engagements over the next 12 months, thereby excluding services already delivered as of the balance sheet date and any committed revenue expected beyond the 12-month period.
Revenue visibility for 2025 is DKK 4,895.6m which is unchanged compared to 2024. This implies a revenue visibility of 69.6%
DKK million
Public segment Private segment Total segment

of the guided revenue mid-point for 2025, compared to 74.4% at the same time last year. However, revenue visibility at the beginning of 2024 was impacted by a higher proportion of long-term revenue signed than normally. During the last five years, revenue visibility at the beginning of a year has fluctuated between 63.4% and 74.4% of the guided revenue mid-point.
The revenue visibility consists of contractual committed revenue and non-contractual

committed engagements, which amounts to DKK 4,606.4m and DKK 289.2m, respectively.
Revenue visibility for 2025 in the public segment increased of 1.4% and amounts to DKK 3,515.2m, of which contractual committed revenue amounts to DKK 3,369.8m and non-contractual committed engagements amount to DKK 145.5m.
Revenue visibility for 2025 in the private


segment decreased of 4.1% and amounts to DKK 1,380.4m, of which contractual committed revenue amounts to DKK 1,236.7m and non-contractual committed engagements amount to DKK 143.7m.
In 2025, DKK 2,052m is expected to be released from the Netcompany-Intrasoft order backlog, mainly within EU institutions, while additional DKK 4,951.3m is expected to be released in the period from 2026 to 2032, also mainly within EU institutions.
Company Announcement No. 6/2025 Workforce 28 January 2025
Netcompany Group A/S Strandgade 3, 1401 Copenhagen Company Registration no. 39 48 89 14
Netcompany employed an average of 8,249 FTEs in Q4 2024, which was an increase of 484 FTEs or 6.2% compared to Q4 2023 (7,765). On a sequential basis FTEs in Q4 2024 increased 2% compared to Q3 2024.
The number of client facing equivalents for the Group increased by 429 from 7,275 in Q4 2023 to 7,705 in Q4 2024 while the level of non-client facing equivalents was 6.6% in Q4 compared to 6.3% in Q4 2023.
Sequentially, the number of client facing equivalents increased by 126 FTEs from Q3 to Q4 2024.
The attrition rate for the last twelve months was 18.1%, which was an increase of 2.8 percentage points compared to 15.3% in 2023. The increase in the attrition rate was due to our ongoing focus on maintaining an efficient pyramid structure and was driven by a higher proportion of involuntary churn compared to 2023.
Avg. FTEs increased to 8,249 during Q4 2024

Attrition rate

Capital and other financial positions
Free cash flow and cash conversion rate1
The Group generated a free cash flow of DKK 532.4m in Q4 2024, which was an increase of 39.2% compared to DKK 382.6m in Q4 2023. Adjusted for taxes paid on account, the Group generated a free cash flow of DKK 569.3m in Q4 2024 compared to DKK 343.4m in Q4 2023.
The strong cash flow was driven by improved operating profit and working capital changes. Changes in working capital were mainly driven by a significant increase in prebilled invoices end of Q4 2024.
As a result of the improved free cash flow cash conversion rate remained high at 381.4% in Q4 2024. Adjusted for the taxes paid on account, cash conversion rate increased from 386.9% in Q4 2023 to 407.8% in Q4 2024.
For the full year, Netcompany generated a free cash flow of DKK 821.1m corresponding to a increase of 48.7% compared to 2023 mainly driven by improved performance and the development in working capital.
For the year, cash conversion ratio improved by 12 percentage points to 147.1% compared to 135.1% in 2023.
Trade receivables
At 31 December 2024, Group trade receivables increased 1.6% from DKK 1,261.8m to DKK 1,282.6m compared to 6% growth in revenue.
Days sales outstanding decreased from 73 days in Q4 2023 to 70 days in Q4 2024 driven by improved collection of outstanding trade receivables.
As a consequence, the overdue part of trade receivables excluding expected credit losses decreased from 35.5% by the end of Q4 2023 to 23.8% by the end of Q4 2024. The overdue part of trade receivables overdue by more than 30 days accounted for 10.8% end of Q4 2024, compared to 11.8% end of Q4 2023.

1 Taxes paid within the Group are, due to local tax regulations, paid on account in Q1 and in Q4. To adjust for this timing mismatch between expensed and paid corporate income taxes the free cash flow should be viewed in a tax normalised manner to better reflect the underlying development in free cash flow based on operations rather than impact from local tax legislation in Denmark.
CONTINUED CAPITAL AND OTHER FINANCIAL POSITIONS
Work in progress
At 31 December 2024, Netcompany's work in progress amounted to DKK 537.3m, represented by contract work in progress of DKK 1,366m and prepayments received from customers of DKK 828.7m.
Combined work in progress decreased by 23.5% from DKK 702.6m in Q4 2023 to DKK 537.3m in Q4 2024. In the same period revenue increased by 6% from DKK 1,582.6m
in Q4 2023 to DKK 1,678.2m in Q4 2024, while revenue for the last twelve months increased by 7.6%.
As a percentage of revenue, the combined work in progress, prebilled invoices, and trade receivables was 27.8%, compared to 32.3% in 2023. The development was caused by a significant increase in prebilled invoices end of 2024.
Funding and liquidity
Originally, the maturity of the Group bank loan expired in 2025. In Q3 2023, the loan was prolonged by one year and now runs to 2026. The loan can be prolonged further by one year.
The combined committed facilities constitute DKK 2,800m and an additional facility of DKK 2,000m, available only for new acquisitions. At 31 December 2024, DKK 1,580m of the committed lines were utilised on ordinary borrowings leaving a total of DKK 3,220m available in unutilised funding of which DKK 1,220m can be utilised for normal operations if needed with no additional costs or covenants.
In addition, Netcompany-Intrasoft had utilised DKK 753.9m on local guarantees, having no impact on the Group facilities except for leverage.
Including net cash balance as of 31 December 2024 of DKK 250.9m available Group funding was DKK 1,470.9m.

Guidance 2025
| Financial metrics in constant currencies | Target 2025 |
Actual performance 2024 |
Original target 2024 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Group revenue growth | 5-10% | 7.4% | 7-10% |
| Group Adjusted EBITDA margin | 16-19% | 16.9% | 15-18% |
In 2024, we delivered growth and earnings in line with our financial guidance. Despite a continued challenged macroeconomic environment, we grew revenue and improved margins across all entities apart from the UK, building on the initiatives introduced in 2023.
Financial performance against original guidance
Entering 2024, we made a number of assumptions about revenue growth for the year, expecting growth of between 7% and 10%. We expected higher activity levels in the UK supported by our win of a large strategic framework agreement. Due to a slowdown in the public sector spending following the general election in July, that was not realised. In addition, we experienced a delay in ramping up on the contract won with Avinor in Norway.
These two significant contracts formed an important foundation for our growth expectations for 2024.
Impacting revenue growth positively was the continued strong performance in Netcompany-Intrasoft, where the EU and public segment in Greece delivered particularly
significant growth – despite exiting 2023 with record-high activity levels. Impacting revenue growth negatively was the divestment of non-strategic markets in Netcompany-Intrasoft and the performance in our UK operation.
For 2024, Group revenue grew 7.4%, in line with our guidance.
Adjusted EBITDA margin for 2024 was 16.9% – also in line with guidance of 15% to 18%. The improved margin was a result of better utilisation in Netcompany Denmark, Netcompany Norway, and Netcompany Netherlands. Netcompany-Intrasoft also increased its margins, leaving only the UK with lower margins than in 2023.
CONTINUED GUIDANCE 2025
Guidance for 2025
Our financial guidance for the Group for 2025 assumes that macro and geopolitical uncertainty continues at the same level as in 2024.
We expect a gradual improvement in UK public sector spending on digitalisation, which eventually will have a positive impact on the Group. However, the timing is still uncertain and difficult to predict.
The EU and public segment in Greece is expected to keep growing, but growth is anticipated to be lower than the last couple of years due to historically high spending levels in the previous years.
In the Danish operation we expect to see unchanged market conditions compared to 2024.
We expect both the Norwegian and Dutch markets to deliver strong growth based on increased interest in our products and platforms to support continued digitalisation.
Finally, the divestment of operations in the non-strategic markets of the Middle East and Africa will impact Group revenue growth negatively by 1 percentage point in 2025.
Consequently, we expect Group revenue to increase between 5% and 10% for 2025.
Our expectation for the adjusted EBITDA margin in 2025 is based on the fundamental improvements to margins realised in 2024, which are not based on one-off effects or other non-recurring effects. Hence, we expect the Group to deliver an adjusted EBIT-DA margin of between 16% and 19% in 2025.
Mid-term financial targets – new long-term financial aspirations
For 2025, we expect to keep growing and improving margins. However, the current slowdown in public spending following last summer's general election in the UK and the divestment of non-strategic markets eliminated a significant part of revenue expected in 2024 and reduce our growth expectations – particular for the UK market in 2025.
Consequently, we defer the timing for realising our DKK 8.5bn revenue target to 2027. Given the strong margin recovery realised in 2024 and the clear trajectory for increased Group margins, we reiterate our adjusted EBITDA margin target of at least 20% and the redistribution of at least DKK 2bn of cash to shareholders by the end of 2026.
Due to advanced strategic considerations, we are not initiating a new share buyback programme at this particular point in time. Should these advanced strategic considerations lead to a transaction it will be financed utilising existing credit facilities.
In 2025, we expect to introduce long-term financial aspirations to be reached by 2030 in connection with a Capital Markets Day in Athens.

Netcompany has based these forward-looking statements on its current views with respect to future events and financial performance. These views involve a number of risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted in the forward-looking statements and from the past performance of Netcompany.
Although Netcompany believes that the estimates and projections reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, they may prove materially incorrect, and actual results may materially differ, e.g. as the result of risks related to the industry in general or Netcompany in particular, including those described in Netcompany Group A/S' Annual Report 2024 and other information made available by Netcompany.
Factors that may affect future results include, but are not limited to, global and economic conditions, including currency exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations, delay or failure of projects related to research and/or development, unexpected contract breaches or terminations, unplanned loss of patents, government-mandated or market-driven price decreases for Netcompany's products, introduction of competing products, reliance on information technology, Netcompany's ability to successfully market current and new products, exposure to product liability, litigation and investigations, regulatory developments, actual or perceived failure to adhere to ethical marketing practices, unexpected growth in costs and expenses, failure to
recruit and retain the right employees, and failure to maintain a culture of compliance.
As a result, forward-looking statements should not be relied on as a prediction of actual results. Netcompany undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.
