Message from the CEO
Vitec delivers a record quarter in terms of both volume and earnings
Vitec delivers a record quarter in terms of both volume and earnings. Total revenue increased by an impressive 61% to SEK 724 million compared with the same period last year. The corresponding figures for the first half of the year are 49% and SEK 1,336 million. Our subscription-based recurring revenues increased organically by 13%.
Growth can be attributed in part to some major acquisitions, but also to stable organic growth in volume and margins. We can now also see the effect of increased transaction-based revenue from our value added services, including from the acquisition of Enova. EBITA for the quarter totaled SEK 226 million, an increase of 89%, and the EBITA margin was 31%, up from 27%. Despite the negative impact of higher interest rates and increased tax costs, our net profit increased by 82%.
Cash flow for the year follows the expected pattern, as a large part of our subscription revenues are received in the first quarter, which contributes to our stable earnings and financial strength.
As usual, acquisitions for the period have been financed by a mix of internally generated cash flow, utilized credits and additional supplementary purchase considerations. We have made two bolton acquisitions that are good complement for us in the hospitality industry in Sweden, where we have become even stronger. Another exciting acquisition in the health sector was agreed in June and is awaiting regulatory approval for completion. In total, we have signed agreements for four acquisitions to date this year.
Our financial position is strong and we see good opportunities for further acquisitions, although competition remains fierce for the excellent vertical software companies that meet our acquisition criteria. These criteria, combined with a disciplined and sustainable approach to company valuations, comprise the strategy that has brought us to where we are today and will continue to serve us well in the future. The companies and employees that have joined our Group are developing well and each new addition brings knowledge and commitment that makes us a little better every day.
Our view of the world and our customers' behavior remains unchanged since the previous quarter's assessment: the picture is still mixed, with both strong development for some and a little slower in terms of new sales for others, but overall a stability in customer volume across all business units.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank our customers, employees and partners for a good first half of 2023 and wish you all a wonderful summer.

Breakdown of recurring revenues

Sales broken down by business unit and customer
Because we operate in a number of niche markets and countries, we have good distribution of revenue in terms of both geography and area of operation. Although we operate in several niche markets, we still engage in essentially the same business: we develop and deliver standardized software. Some are complete enterprise systems, while others provide support for specific aspects of our customers' operations.
No individual customer accounts for more than 1.7% of the Group's total revenues. As we continue to acquire profitable vertical software companies, we expect the distribution of risk to continue in a positive direction.
BREAKDOWN OF SALES
Our sales are evenly spread across our 38 business units. No individual business unit accounts for more than 12% of consolidated sales.
CUSTOMERS
We have about 24,600 customers. The Group's ten largest software customers account for approximately 9% of sales. The single largest software customer accounts for approximately 1.7% of sales.

Growth – develop and acquire
Vitec is an industry player with a longterm outlook. Our growth mainly occurs through corporate acquisitions, but also organically. Our business model is based on a high percentage of recurring revenues. This provides us with stable and predictable cash flows that enable us to pursue a long-term approach where we can both reinvest in products and make acquisitions. Continual development of our products is crucial to ensure that our offering will remain relevant in the future.
ACQUISITIONS DURING THE PERIOD
Three acquisitions were completed during the period: Enova Holding B.V., DL Systems AB and Entry Event Sweden AB. From the acquisition date up to and including June 30, revenues in the acquired companies totaled SEK 131.1 million in sales and SEK 41.8 million in profit before tax. If consolidation had occurred at the beginning of the year, the companies would have provided the Group with roughly an additional SEK 52.8 million in sales and SEK 17.4 million in profit before tax. The acquisition-related expenses are recognized in operating profit and total SEK 10.7

Related-party transactions
No significant transactions with related parties occurred in the Group or Parent Company during the period.
Accounting and measurement policies
This interim report has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the EU, and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. The Parent Company's accounts were prepared in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act and recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities No new or amended standards entered into force as of 2023 that are expected to affect the Group's accounts.
OPERATING SEGMENTS
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker of the Company. In the Vitec Group, the CEO and President has been identified as chief executive decision-maker who evaluates the Group's financial position and performance and makes decisions on resource allocation. The operating segments form the operational structure for internal governance, follow-ups, and reporting. The CEO analyzes and monitors the sales
and earnings of the operation based on the total consolidated operations. The assessment is thus that the Group's operations consist of one segment.
INCENTIVE PROGRAM
There is an ongoing convertible program aimed at all personnel in the form of convertible debentures. The shares were issued on market terms. Consequently, there are no benefits that can be recognized as share-based remuneration.
Three warrant incentive programs are also underway, in the form of warrants, aimed at around 45 people. The shares were issued on market terms. The fair value of options granted is calculated using a modified version of the Black-Scholes valuation model. The value of the option premiums is recognized as share-based remuneration pursuant to IFRS 2.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Classification and measurement Financial instruments are recognized initially at cost corresponding to the
instrument's fair value plus transaction costs. A financial instrument is classified at initial recognition based on, among other factors, the purpose for which the instrument was acquired. Vitec has financial instruments under the categories loans and accounts receivable, financial assets at fair value, financial liabilities at fair value and financial liabilities at amortized cost.
Financial liabilities measured at fair value
In accordance with IFRS 7, the fair value of each financial asset and financial liability must be disclosed, regardless of whether they are recognized in the balance sheet. Vitec deems the fair value of the financial assets/liabilities to be close to the recognized carrying amount.
All of the company's financial instruments that are subject to measurement at fair value are classified as level 3 and pertain to securities held as fixed assets, as well as contingent considerations in conjunction with acquisitions.
