Activity in the 4th quarter: Increase of subscription sales (SaaS)

In the 4th quarter of 2018, Prodware generated revenues of € 52.7 million compared to € 46.8 million in the final quarter of 2017, up 12.6%. On a like-for-like basis, quarterly business was up 10.7%.

The increase in sales is mainly due to:

  • the strong acceleration of subscription sales (SaaS) in the fourth quarter (+ 45.9%), generating recurring activity and higher margins,
  • the rebound in sales in the Benelux (+ 23.6%) thanks in particular to incremental revenue related to the integration of Microsoft Dynamics activities acquired from CTAC in the Netherlands.

Growth in international sales in 2018

For the full year of 2018, Prodware's revenue amounted to € 175.9 million compared to € 167.7 million in 2017, a gain of 4.9%. On a like-for-like basis, sales increased by 4.3%.

Activity in the French-speaking zone, at € 69.3 million, was down 9.6%. This decrease is linked, on the one hand, to a strong slowdown in North Africa and, on the other hand, to the particularly difficult economic context in France in the fourth quarter, which had a significant impact on delivering the projects.

On the contrary, Prodware benefited from the good orientation of its international sales, which grew by 17% driven by Germany, Spain and Belux. International sales of € 106.6 million now represent 60.6% of the annual total.

The publishing activity (32.2% of the total revenue) at € 56.5 million in 2018 is stable compared to 2017. The advisory business remains very dynamic with a growth of 6% while the integration core business increased by 2.9% to € 90.5 million (thanks in particular to the successful deployment of the Microsoft Dynamics 365 platform). Lastly, recurring SaaS revenue amounted to € 28.9 million, an increase of 25.8% over the previous year.
