Strong cash position of $5.9m as of 30[th] June 2020
Sydney, Australia, July 29, 2020: Higher education software as a service (SaaS) company OpenLearning Limited (‘OpenLearning’ or ‘the Company’) is pleased to provide its Appendix 4C cash flow statement for the quarter ended 30 June 2020 (Q2 FY20), along with the following update. The Company’s fiscal year coincides with the calendar year.
Continued substantial growth across key metrics
OpenLearning is delighted to report record cash receipts of $945k in Q2 FY20, up 31% on Q1 FY20. The Company’s strong cash position of $5.9m at the end of the quarter is underpinned by growth in revenues and decreasing cash burn, which was reduced by 9.6% to $945k during the quarter.
OpenLearning’s annualised recurring revenue (ARR) grew to $1.143m in Q2 FY20, an increase of 71% YoY. There was also a substantial rise in Platform SaaS clients, which increased 157% YoY to 116.
As of 30 June 2020, OpenLearning has had close to 3.7 million enrolments from over 2.5 million registered learners and 3,872 active courses[2] provided by 116 education providers, making it one of the world’s largest online education platforms.
Strong growth in SaaS customers was a result of new platform agreements with universities as well as the launch of new self-service SaaS plans, which enable smaller education providers to subscribe to OpenLearning’s platform for up to 250 learners for between $500 to $1,000/year. As their usage grows, they would be required to upgrade to higher-value SaaS plans.
The following charts highlight the Company’s track record of growth over the past eight quarters.
1 Annualised recurring SaaS revenue, calculated by utilising the generally accepted industry standard, which involves multiplying the monthly accrued SaaS revenue in the month at the end of the quarter by 12 (months). The ARR calculation does not take into account the future expiry of the term of any contract under which SaaS revenue is generated or any customer lost during the relevant month.
2 Courses are considered active if they attracted over 10 enrolments in the period between 1st July 2019 and 30th June 2020.

The Company has recorded a net increase of 29 clients since the end of Q1 FY20. The figures for Q2 FY20 include renewals from 3 B2B SaaS clients for which confirmation of the renewal has been received but signed agreements have yet to be exchanged due to the COVID-19 lockdown in Malaysia.
Substantial growth in new users and record enrolments were driven by large scale financial literacy and professional development courses in Malaysia, demand for short courses in Australia related to COVID-19 and new institutions that were onboarded during the quarter. Growth in users and enrolments out-paced ARR as a result of legacy contracts in Malaysia whereby fees were capped regardless of the level of usage.
Malaysia and Australia remained the Company’s largest markets for registered users, enrolments and revenue. The Company witnessed strong growth in Indonesia as a result of the Company onboarding a number of new university partners in the first and second quarters of the year, as well as India, the United States and the United Kingdom as a result of increased demand for online up-skilling.
3 The number of Platform SaaS Customers for March 2020 has been revised upwards by 11 to 87 customers as a result of the introduction of new SaaS plans that were not captured in the previous quarterly report.

Revenue by category
The Company reported record receipts from customers of $945k and a net operating cash outflow of $945k for Q2 FY20. This result included an investment of $464k in sales and marketing in the quarter with the aim of securing new clients and partnerships while growing existing accounts.
The Company’s strategy is to grow SaaS revenue by providing its learning platform to education providers on usage-based SaaS agreements (‘Platform SaaS’). It also generates revenue by providing professional services to education providers to assist them in designing courses (‘Learning Services’) and by taking a share of the revenue from courses sold through OpenLearning’s course marketplace (‘Marketplace’). Cash receipts from customers by category for Q2 FY20 were as follows:
-
Platform SaaS: AUD $283k
-
Learning Services: AUD $262k
-
Marketplace: AUD $400k
The Company’s cashflow from Learning Services and Marketplace grew strongly as a result of demand from clients to move their courses online and attract new students as a result of COVID-19.
New partnerships and products to drive further growth
- Transformative agreements with Open Universities Australia
Post the quarter, the Company signed agreements with Open Universities Australia, including a Memorandum of Understanding, a Platform SaaS and Course Distribution Agreement, and a Services Agreement. Together, these agreements establish a close working relationship between the two organisations for the purpose of growing the micro-credential market in Australia.
OUA is Australia’s largest online higher education marketplace and was established in 1993 and has since enrolled over 440,000 students. It currently offers over 400 degrees and more than 2,000 subjects from 21 Australian universities.
To accelerate the growth of the market, OpenLearning and OUA will jointly fund the setup and learning design costs of up to 30 OpenCreds through the creation of the Open Microcredential Development Grant with $750k of value, including a $450k in-kind contribution from the Company for learning design with the balance contributed by OUA in cash to universities. OpenLearning and OUA have begun promoting the grant program and the initial response has been very positive.
- Launch of the OpenCreds micro-credentialing framework
Following an extensive consultation process involving 350 people and four virtual roundtables, OpenLearning has finalised its OpenCreds micro-credential framework, which is now available for Australian education providers to use exclusively via OpenLearning. By providing a standardized structure for the delivery of micro-credentials, OpenCreds enables education providers to adapt to the fast-changing world of work, in which employees must upskill and reskill with greater frequency.
- Launch of the OpenCreds Investment Fund
The Company launched the OpenCreds Investment Fund (OIF) to accelerate its expansion beyond the university sector by supporting higher education providers, registered training organisations, industry associations and professional bodies to move their training programs online by utilising OpenLearning’s platform and its new OpenCreds framework.
OpenLearning Limited (ASX: OLL) ACN 635 890 390 • Phone: +61 2 8294 9686 • Web: www.openlearning.com Address: Level 2, 235 Commonwealth Street, Surry Hills NSW 2010, Australia
3
The OIF will fund the setup and learning design costs for 35 OpenCreds, representing an investment of $350k from the Company, half of which will be in-kind. In exchange for the investment, the Company would receive a significant share of the revenue generated from fees paid by learners. The Company expects to fully deploy the capital over the next year.
• Platform agreement with DeakinCo.
Post the quarter, the Company signed a platform agreement with DeakinCo., part of Deakin University and a global leader in micro-credentials focused on workforce capabilities. The Company is now working closely with DeakinCo. to setup a substantial number of courses on the OpenLearning platform for delivery in Australia and international markets. DeakinCo. provided valuable input to the Company throughout the OpenCreds consultation process and is an early adopter of OpenCreds.
• Platform and services agreement with Heriot-Watt University Malaysia
During the quarter, the Company signed an agreement with Heriot-Watt University Malaysia (‘Heriot-Watt’), one the UK’s leading universities, with campuses in Edinburgh, Dubai, Malaysia, Orkney and the Scottish Borders, and over 29,000 students.
In April 2020, OpenLearning announced that it had been selected by Heriot-Watt to redesign the university’s Foundation Studies programme into a world-class online learning experience. The project was substantially delivered in Q2 FY20 and students are now taking the programme completely online.
• Platform agreement with Australian Catholic University (ACU)
In June 2020, the Company expanded its partnership with ACU, signing a three-year usage-based platform agreement with the university. ACU, which was a strategic investor in OpenLearning’s IPO in December 2019, is utilising the Company’s platform for the delivery of short courses, microcredentials and internal professional development programmes, initially focusing on the health and education sectors.
ACU is one of the fastest-growing universities in Australia and is ranked in the top 2% of all universities worldwide, with a total of 35,000 students across eight campuses in Australia and a campus in Rome, Italy.
• New platform agreements in Malaysia and Indonesia
During the quarter, the Company signed platform SaaS agreements with a number of universities and training providers to enable them to deliver their courses online amidst COVID-19 with a particular focus on professional development courses that are being sold on a commercial basis through the platform.
Notable new customers during the quarter include three universities in Indonesia, a number of local Malaysian training providers and Snap Inc. (NYSE: SNAP) which is running a course in Malaysia to educate people on how to create Snapchat filters.
• Update on platform agreement with High Resolves
High Resolves, a global not-for-profit that has engaged over 350,000 students through its awardwinning learning experiences for high schools, has already deployed OpenLearning after signing a platform agreement in March 2020.
OpenLearning Limited (ASX: OLL) ACN 635 890 390 • Phone: +61 2 8294 9686 • Web: www.openlearning.com Address: Level 2, 235 Commonwealth Street, Surry Hills NSW 2010, Australia

High Resolves has now redesigned four of their five peak experiences to be delivered via OpenLearning and has received positive feedback from schools. High Resolves and the Company have onboarded over 36 schools in Australia as of July 2020 and are in the process of ramping up ahead of the start of the school year in the northern hemisphere.
Strategy to capitalise on accelerated shift towards online education
The disruption caused by COVID-19 to the education sector has been a key driver of the Company’s growth in the past quarter and is likely lead to fundamental and long-lasting changes to the higher education sector. The accelerated shift to online education is creating new opportunities for the Company, requiring a level of flexibility to ensure that the Company secures agreements that generate high medium to long term value. The Company is being prudent by executing against a clear strategy that balances investing in growth and managing operating cash outflow.
The Company has continued to focus on three key areas in order to accelerate its revenue growth:
- Platform for delivering high-quality education
The Company’s focus is on growing SaaS revenue by enabling education providers to deliver quality online education through its purpose-built platform and learning services division as the medium/long term solution for education providers to move online. The Company sees opportunities to support education providers large and small through this transition and is investing in scaling its online customer acquisition, sales and onboarding processes.
• Leader in micro-credentials and short courses
The launch of OpenCreds and the OpenCreds Investment Fund, along with the agreements that the Company has signed with Open Universities Australia, have positioned the Company to become the leader in the fast-growing and strategically important Australian micro-credential market. The Company is seeing an increase in demand in this segment from both learners and education providers in Australia and across Southeast Asia and will therefore continue to invest in initiatives and partnerships to enhance its position.
• Strategic partnerships
The Company continues to actively pursue partnerships with companies that offer complementary products that fit into the OpenLearning ecosystem, resellers in new markets or sectors in which the Company does not currently operate and with higher education providers themselves, to accelerate the development of high-value courses and qualifications that have a strong business case and would create long term value for all parties.
The Company is confident that by executing on this strategy it will be able to accelerate growth in its core business of enabling education providers to deliver the highest quality online education and enter new segments of the higher education market.
To support this growth, the Company recently announced that Spiro Pappas became an Executive Director by virtue of accepting the role of Senior Advisor to the Company. Mr Pappas has over 30 years of international experience in banking and finance, holding senior roles in Sydney, New York, London, and Singapore. Recently, he was Executive General Manager for International Branches and Innovation at National Australia Bank (ASX: NAB) and prior to this, he was the bank’s CEO of Asia and Executive General Manager Corporate and Institutional Banking.

quarter is off to an exciting start with the signing of ground-breaking agreements with Open Universities Australia, and several top tier universities being onboarded to our platform. We are particularly focused on securing deals that generate significant medium to long-term value and align with our strategy to be the leader in the burgeoning micro-credentials market. As workers increasingly find themselves needing to upskill and reskill in today’s challenging job market, micro-credentials have never been more important and demand for online education has never been greater.”
