ARR growth driving revenue growth

Comments

Pexip as-a-Service Operating revenues – Pexip as-a-Service

• Overall growth of 28% year-on-year to NOK 89 million, of which NOK 1.8 million is related to Skedify

Operating revenues – Self-hosted Software

  • Overall increase of 11% year-on-year to NOK 177 million
  • Software revenue mainly recognized at time of delivery, which leads to quarterly variations in revenue recognition. This drives high revenue in Q4, as a large share of renewals are executed in Q4.

Gross margin

  • Gross margin in line with Q4 2020, and increasing due to higher revenue/usage
  • Improved gross margin in Q4 due to higher software revenues in line with expected seasonality
  • Modernized service platform from own hardware to cloud compute, for better scale, resiliency and operations as well as lower investments in own hardware going forward

Increase in operating expenses from planned investments in Sales and R&D capacity

Executing on communicated growth strategy

Cash flow from investing activities per quarter Comments Significant investments in sales-related headcount, impacting EBITDA

NOK million, cash outflow

  • Gross margin growth of NOK 35 million
  • Growth in OPEX of NOK 75 million due to headcount growth and activity increase
  • Positive EBITDA in Q4 due to strong software revenues and overall cost control despite planned growth investments

Full year negative EBITDA of NOK -124 million (-15%), which is above guidance of negative 25-35% EBITDA margin in 2021.

Outlook

Positive outlook for the year, however, expect a challenging Q1 due to short-term uncertainties

  • Continue to see uncertainty on return to office and hardware delays impact demand
  • Strengthened partnership with a key partner and change in business model will impact ARR negatively with USD 2 million in Q1, however, we expect this to have a net positive impact on ARR development in 2022
  • Leading position in high-growth niches underpin mid-term revenue target of 300 million dollars in ARR by the end of 2024

Starting return to profitability

  • Revenue growth will improve profitability
