Chairman's Report
1Spatial has enjoyed a successful first year of its three-year
growth plan. Expansion has been seen in all parts of the business,
delivering across all three of our strategic growth pillars:
Innovation, Customer Relationships and Smart Partnerships. We have
seen substantial financial growth, exceeding our revenue and sales
forecasts for the year, which has provided a solid basis for
long-term success.
Digital transformation, combined with government initiatives
such as increased infrastructure investment and the launch of
sustainability programmes, are driving a substantial need for data
management tools, particularly those capable of managing complex
location data. With its enterprise grade software and over 30
years' heritage in location data, 1Spatial sits at the heart of
this rapidly increasing demand, as evidenced by the significant
high-profile wins in the year, which in turn are elevating our
profile on the global stage. These wins highlight the quality of
1Spatial's world-class technology and geospatial expertise, and the
ability of the business to scale through the sale of repeatable
business applications and software solutions.
Financials
Our key financial objectives for the year were to grow recurring
revenues, while generating funds to be reinvested into the
business. I am pleased to report that our financial performance
exceeded expectations this year, with sales orders being
considerably higher than our expectations. We have also returned to
organic revenue growth, with increased revenue across all regions
and sectors in which we operate. Our first recorded operating
profit and profit before tax for over a decade represents a
positive financial milestone and is particularly pleasing given the
accelerated transition we are achieving in our business model
towards term and SaaS based subscription licenses.
Operational successes
This year has been a year of investment for 1Spatial, to provide
a platform for scalable growth as we develop our people and build
out our technology offering. We are successfully building
repeatability into our solutions and have invested in Cloud
delivery, which will increase our addressable market significantly
in future years. We have won several new landmark customers,
including high profile and national level digital transformation
initiatives and signed two of our largest ever deals. Growth in the
US has been pivotal to this year's successes, which alongside our
strengthened partnerships and substantial customer wins has
significantly expanded our horizons of opportunity.
People
We have invested in the expansion of our senior leadership team
to ensure we have the depth of management to deliver our strategy
and have been delighted by the immediate positive impacts the new
team members have made. Our priority continues to be the wellbeing
of our teams around the world, providing them with the best
environment to continue to deliver the high-quality service our
customers expect of 1Spatial.
World events continue to be challenging and worrying for many.
We do not have any operations in Russia or the Ukraine and no
customers in those regions.
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
Like many businesses, ESG is very important for 1Spatial as we
strive to make the world safer, smarter and more sustainable for
the future. Whilst we are still in the early stages of implementing
ESG initiatives across the Group, we have already taken steps to
address key areas within ESG over the past few years. During the
year we engaged with a third party with expertise in this area, to
help us consolidate all of our initiatives and define and create
our full ESG strategy, which is set out in more detail in the
Annual Report.
Given the nature of what we do, we have a low impact on the
environment, but we are always aiming to improve and offset our
carbon footprint by initiatives such as donating to the Woodland
Trust to offset travel.
Outlook/Summary
We have entered the new financial year in a significantly
stronger position. With a strong sales backlog and increased levels
of recurring revenue, I am confident the Group's success over the
past 12 months is set to continue.
We anticipate scalable growth in three key areas. Firstly, we
expect the US to continue to accelerate in the coming years and
become a substantial part of our Group revenues in the future.
Secondly there is significant growth potential from new
partnerships, targeting the government and large enterprise digital
transformation opportunities. Thirdly, the commercialisation of our
cloud-based platform planned in the second half of the year
enabling us to launch Validation as a Service (VaaS) offerings and
other targeted SaaS business applications such as 1Streetworks/TMPA
should be a transformational opportunity for scalable growth.
The Board is confident that the inflationary pressures being
felt by all businesses in the current environment are being well
managed.
We believe the investments we have made over the past year in
our people and technology position us well to take advantage of the
huge opportunity that is ahead. The significant number and range of
new wins in the year provides the Board with confidence that
1Spatial is in an excellent position to continue its upward
trajectory and we expect a successful continuation of the execution
of our growth strategy.
Finally, I would like to thank all our staff for their
contribution and fortitude through the pandemic.

Non-Executive Chairman
CEO's Review
This year has been one of solid organic growth, fuelled by a
number of landmark wins, including high profile and national level
contracts in each of our target markets, as we conclude what has
been a transformative first year of our three-year growth plan. We
have expanded our product offering and delivered growth in
revenues, term licence revenue, ARR and adjusted EBITDA as we
successfully transition our business model. It is encouraging to
see a strong performance in all regions, with growth in the UK and
North America particularly noteworthy.
We help over 1,000 customers, spanning key sectors such as
government, utilities and transportation make better business
decisions and move towards a smarter world, through improved
accuracy and sharing of location data. While this is already an
extensive customer base, we believe, as leaders in location data
validation and sharing, we are just at the start of our growth
journey.
The demand for up-to-date location data has never been greater,
due to the acceleration in digital transformation taking place
across all industries. Location data is a vital element in the
delivery of faster and safer services, and because it is
increasingly being used as the main point of reference when
connecting multiple systems, it needs to be accurate and shareable.
Our rules engine, 1Integrate, and cloud portal, 1Data Gateway, are
recognised, both by our customers and a growing number of
influential partners, as powerful tools to ensure good quality data
and trust when sharing data.
This fast-growing industry need has led to growth in our
customer numbers and revenues and created a record pipeline of
opportunities as we enter the new financial year.
Top line growth and a return to profits
The success of our strategy and the growth in our market can be
seen in our strong financial performance during the year,
particularly in H2 FY 2022, which has seen the Group secure its
largest contracts to date, providing a strong platform for growth
in future years.
I am pleased to report our first operating profit and profit
before tax for over a decade, representing a significant shift from
an operating loss of GBP1.2m in the prior year. We have seen
organic growth in revenues, recurring revenues and adjusted EBITDA
profit levels, whilst at the same time, increasing investment in
the business as part of the three-year growth plan. Group revenue
increased by 10% to GBP27.0m from GBP24.6m in FY 2021 with
double-digit growth in recurring revenue year on year. The order
book of committed revenue increased by 129% to GBP12.5m and term
licence ARR increased by 160% to GBP4.1m.
US delivering on its promise
A key success is the Group's expansion across North America,
which presents a major opportunity for the business going
forward.
We have successfully sold and implemented 1Integrate and 1Data
Gateway in key US States including California and Michigan. We
secured several landmark contracts in the year, most notably four
new wins with US States to support delivery of their Next
Generation 911 Emergency Services system.
US legislation requires all States to upgrade their emergency
services, building digital platforms and incorporating the use of
GIS data, to support NG 911 services and ensure a modern and safe
emergency response system. Key challenges to meeting these
requirements have been the completeness and accuracy of the GIS
data, the need to integrate other data from multiple sources such
as road traffic information, and the fact that location data is
constantly changing. Our Next Generation 911 solution, now being
implemented in seven US States, ensures that emergency services are
using validated, integrated and up to date data and ultimately,
that the teams on the ground are able to respond to incidents more
quickly and with greater confidence in data quality.
Typical ARR per State for our NG911 solution is initially around
US$0.1-0.2m and we expect total ARR for this solution across the US
to grow to over $1m in FY23. We are growing our sales team to
support this opportunity in other States.
Following the passing of a $2.2 trillion reconciliation bill in
the US in November 2021, which includes $500 million of funding to
support NG 911 deployments, alongside the digitalisation of 911
systems across America, we are seeing significant new opportunities
where we can bring our unique technology and solutions to help
providers achieve faster response times.
The development of our cloud platform means we will soon be able
to offer a 'light version' NG911 SaaS solution aimed at the
hundreds of counties and cities within each State, considerably
increasing our addressable opportunity.
There is also sizeable opportunity for growth within each State
by launching additional solutions, including for example Highway
Performance Monitoring Systems (HPMS) and Crash Reporting. We have
already seen success in Michigan where we have doubled the initial
ARR through the upsell of additional solutions.
This all contributes to a high-margin medium-term opportunity,
based around our own IP and channels to market, that can transform
the economics of our US operation. Further out we have the
opportunity for expansion into Canada and Latin America.
Major contract wins
In the UK, we have continued to deliver top and bottom line
growth through new multi-year contracts with government bodies.
These include an GBP8m multi-year contract in partnership with a
consortium to deliver a significant digital transformation
programme for a department of the UK Government, and a GBP6.5m
contract for the UK Government's Geospatial Commission supporting
Atkins to deliver the National Underground Asset Register. These
contracts contribute GBP1.7m to Annualised Recurring Revenue.
Successes such as these, and the considerable size of our sales
pipeline, give us the confidence to continue to invest in the
business, to ensure we have the right structure to deliver on the
growing opportunity as we move into the second year of our
three-year growth plan. We have made a number of senior
appointments across the Group to ready the business for this next
phase of growth, expanded our sales and delivery teams and invested
in the Cloud to increase our addressable market.
Strategic review
We are building our highly scalable business on three pillars:
Innovation, Customer Relationships and Smart Partnerships and I am
proud to say we made considerable progress against all three
throughout the year.
1. Innovation
Innovation lies at the heart of 1Spatial. We use our patented
software to audit and automatically correct location data, keeping
it accurate and up to date. Our automated software is able to
handle huge volumes of complex data allowing our customers not only
to ensure accuracy but also save significant amounts of time and
money, giving them the ability to solve complex challenges in the
management of their spatial and non-spatial data.
During the year, we were granted a UK Patent for Modification
and Validation of Spatial Data, recognising its power as a tool to
ensure good quality data and facilitate trust when sharing data.
The patent protects the use of 1Spatial's Rules Engine technology,
which is used in 1Integrate, further strengthening the Group's
international patent coverage, which includes a US patent for
Modification and Validation of Spatial Data.
The 1Spatial Platform for Location Master Data Management can be
split into two key areas:
-- Data Management Solutions - Managing data to ensure it is correct, consistent and compliant
-- Business Applications - Utilising trusted data through
business applications to solve specific business challenges
Data management solutions
Key development initiatives during the year were to ensure that
our solutions meet the rising demand for integration with a
cloud-enabled world. This also included improvements to data
security and the ability to make our customer deployments simpler
than ever.
The innovation in both 1Integrate and 1Data Gateway throughout
the year have provided a vehicle for further growth and
accessibility of our solutions and the development team continue to
assess the products against both the customer and market needs so
that we are always at the forefront in our market sectors.
1Integrat e
1Integrate is our patented no-code rules engine - this continues
to be enhanced to make it more powerful and more capable for
automated data validation and processing. During the year
1Integrate was successfully upgraded to include access to more data
types. This included access to more data store formats and access
to data over the web such as Esri's Web Feature Services.
1Integrate is also now packaged with a Repository Synchronisation
Tool making it simpler for our customer teams to collaborate; and
faster to build, test and deploy rules across the organisation.
We continued to add further support for 3D data which was used
in a pilot project with a National Mapping Agency. This pilot
project was focused on automating the import of geospatial data
into a 3D database, and automatically validating against the
project's data specification using 1Integrate 3D. The rules inspect
the building information, finding and correcting any overlaps,
overhangs and any misalignments. The current and correct data was
then loaded into the central databank, where the data was made
available to the National Mapping Agency stakeholders.
1Data Gateway
1Data Gateway is our self-service web-portal for spatial data
validation, processing and analytics. During the year we have made
several upgrades including enhancements to our APIs, which allow
systems to talk to each other, so our customers can analyse the
results from 1Data Gateway with their own BI tools such as Esri
ArcGIS Dashboard.
Business applications
We provide two types of business applications to meet our
customer's needs. Applications can either plug directly into the
1Spatial Platform or alternatively can plug into the 1Spatial
Platform whilst also utilising the benefits of the Esri
technology.
Applications plugged directly into the 1Spatial Platform
This year we focused on the development of two types of
applications on the 1Spatial Platform. These are Validation
Applications and Specific Business Applications
-- Validation Applications
These applications validate data to a pre-defined set of rules
and provide back a report of the errors. The first of these
applications is NG911 and HPMS which are being sold in the US. We
also have identified a number of other similar solutions across our
territories which will be brought to market in FY23. We are also
looking to deploy a number of these solutions to the 1Spatial cloud
in FY23 so they can be offered as Validation as a Service (Vaas)
solutions.
-- Specific Business Applications
This year, we also focused on building targeted solutions on the
platform, such as 1Streetworks (previously known as Traffic
Management Plan Automation ("TMPA")), which is currently being
tested at selected customers.
Both the Validation Applications (VaaS) and Specific Business
Applications such as 1Streetworks should provide the Group with
potential exciting new "go to" market models, lowering the price
point for new customers onto the platform planned in the second
half of FY23.
-- Launch of 1Spatial cloud platform
We have now finalised the majority of the development on the
1spatial cloud platform which will allow us to sell the cloud
solutions noted above. The multi-tenancy SaaS platform will be more
cost effective for 1Spatial as we will be managing fewer
deployments and the elastic nature of the platform architecture is
more cost efficient.
Applications using the benefits of Esri technology
During the year we have continued to invest in the business
applications built on Esri technology. These include ArcOpole Pro,
the application to help local authorities manage assets and urban
planning, and 1Water to manage Water Networks. In addition, we have
also developed 1Telecomms this year which will address the Telecoms
sector. These business applications provide solutions to targeted
needs that are not fulfilled by the Esri Platform.
2. Customer relationships
We continued to strengthen our relationships with existing
customers throughout the year and secured new customer wins across
all territories. Our aim is to be our customers' strategic partner
and advisor in LMDM. We typically expand our customer relationships
over time, as we identify additional areas our software and
expertise can support our customers.
The success of our customer focus, combined with ongoing
transition to term licencing, can be seen in the 26% growth in
Annualised Recurring Revenue driven both by new customer wins and
expansion of existing customer accounts.
Land and expand
The Group delivered new customer wins including multi-year
licence contracts in the year across all regions, with the USA
performing particularly well.
New customer wins include:
-- National Underground Asset Register (NUAR) - Supporting the
Government to build back better, greener and levelling up the North
- GBP6.5 million (GBP1.5m licence over 3 years).
-- Department of the UK Government - Multi-year digital
transformation programme - GBP8.0 million (GBP6.0m
licence over 5 years).
-- HM Land Registry - Single digital register across England and
Wales - GBP0.5 million (GBP0.4m licence
over 3 years).
-- Four new contracts for NG 911 solutions in the US, with the
States of Montana, Georgia, Minnesota and Arizona, demonstrating
1Spatial's unique technology and the replicability of this
solution. Each with ARR of average US$0.15 million plus services of
US$0.1 million.
-- Our first term licence in France, with VINCI Highways, to
supply 1Telecomms, a 1Spatial app built on
the Esri platform.
Customer expansion contracts in the period, included:
-- Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) to
support the Land Management System, operated DEFRA's Rural Payments
Agency (RPA), in partnership with Version 1 - GBP1.2 million over 5
years.
-- Another contract win with DEFRA and RPA to support its field
collection system - GBP0.5 million (GBP0.4m
licence over 2 years).
-- Multi-year framework agreement with Land and Property
Services in Northern Ireland in partnership with Version 1, to
support the Department of Finance's ongoing programme of Digital
Transformation.
-- Managed service for a major utility organisation in France in
support of the deployment of 1Water - EUR0.3 million.
-- Additional services and licences for Google Real Estate and
Workplace Services - US$0.9 million (US$0.3m licence).
-- In France, 29 existing customers have completed or commenced
migration from the Group's legacy Elyx platform, to Esri-supported
solutions, including 1Water.
3. Smart partnerships
We believe partnerships will play an important role in providing
us with the reach to capitalise on the opportunity ahead. We have
secured many of our largest contracts via our partners this
year.
In order to accelerate this new business channel, we hired a new
Head of Global partners during the year. Key focus areas in the
year have been to identify and extend our relationships with large
global corporates where location data management forms part of a
larger customer bid and also to extend our technology partnership
with Esri.
Large global corporates
We are increasingly being selected as the data integrity
provider within a consortium, cleansing the data before passing it
back through wider systems. The depth of our data domain expertise
and the enterprise grade of our software means we are one of the
few technology partners able to work on the scale that our partners
need.
New partners we have won and commenced work with this year
include Atkins, Qinetiq and Landmark. We also strengthened our
longstanding partnership with both Version1 and Ordnance
Survey.
Technology partnership - Esri
Our long-term partnership with Esri is a key differentiator for
us in many markets and provides a major opportunity as we build our
own IP solutions. Esri is the global market leader in GIS with a
network of over 2,700 partners around the world. We were pleased to
receive the prestigious "Web GIS Transformation Award' award at the
global 2021 Esri Partner Conference. This award builds on the close
collaboration between 1Spatial and Esri, with 1Spatial having
received Esri Utility Network Management Specialty designation,
recognising 1Spatial's knowledge and expertise within utilities and
the implementation of Water Solutions. Last year 1Spatial announced
the collaboration with Esri UK and Northern Gas Networks to lead
the UK's first ArcGIS Utility Network Migration.
We continue to build 1Spatial business applications on the Esri
platform and during FY23 we are looking to internationalise a
number of these.
Corporate activity
We will continue to identify potential strategic and bolt-on
acquisitions to complement our organic growth.
People
The success of our business is a tribute to our employees'
commitment and knowledge. We are passionate about looking after our
staff to ensure each individual can realise their potential. We
continue to invest in our people, providing them with the tools and
training to support and allow them to realise this, with clear
alignment to our Group strategy. During the year, following
employee consultation, we launched our new 1Spatial values which we
believe reflect the ethos of the company. These values are: We
Respect, We Innovate, We Collaborate, We Trust and We Care.
We have added new people to the senior team to enable us to
capitalise on the significant growth opportunities in the market.
This includes a Global Chief Commercial Officer, Global Head of
Marketing and Global Head of Partners. We have also bolstered the
development teams with new product owners and technical leads to
ensure that we can align to our strategy to increase technology
sales of both our core data management solutions as well as our
business applications.
Communication with our staff and maintaining wellbeing is
crucial, especially in the current macroeconomic environment. We
actively promote the importance of mental health and as part of our
commitment to their well-being, we rolled out initiatives such as
well-being months, mental health awareness training, mental health
first aiders and internal events and initiatives to encourage staff
to take time out from their working day.
We are always looking at ways to ensure equality and diversity
across our company and an inclusive, welcoming working environment
for everyone. Over the past year, we have created global
initiatives to celebrate: International Women's Day, World Food
Day, Diwali, Thanksgiving, Mental Health Awareness Week, Earth Day
and Health and Happiness month.
The teams continue to show ingenuity and commitment day-to-day,
for which the Board and I thank them wholeheartedly. Whilst we are
much better connected across all geographies as a result of the
pandemic requiring colleagues to connect online, we were delighted
to hold our first face to face Group sales meeting since the start
of the pandemic in Cambridgeshire in February 2022 with all
regional managers and sales teams joining. The event was a huge
success, setting us up for a successful FY23.
Strategic priorities for the year ahead
Our focus will remain on the three pillars of our growth strateg
y . We are now well positioned to capitalise on the opportunity in
front of us, particularly with a focus on growth in North America,
where we will invest in the expansion of our sales and marketing
resources.
The expansion of the 1Spatial Cloud platform will be a key
strategic focus for the Group as the platform will enable us to
increase our addressable market and existing customer demand for
web-based access to our solutions. We anticipate that this,
alongside new Validation as a Service (VaaS) solutions and SaaS
based solutions such as 1Streetworks/TMPA, will be transformational
for the Group in future years.
We will continue to invest in the business and its people to
support our expanded customer base, while maintaining our focus on
the financial goals of increased revenue growth, underpinned by
growing annual recurring revenue and continue our trajectory of
increased profitability at adjusted EBITDA level and higher cash
generation over the long-term.
Current trading and outlook
It is extremely encouraging to see such positive early
indicators of the success of our strategic growth plan. We have
exited the year with increased levels of recurring revenues, an
expanded customer base and a partner network stronger than we have
ever had - all of which provide us with a valuable base on which to
expand in the year ahead.
Location data underpins decision-making in every state, country
and government entity and commercial businesses today across the
globe. With the validation and sharing of location data sitting at
the heart of many areas of digital transformation, we are seeing a
growing number of opportunities entering our sales pipeline across
all our regions and markets.
This healthy sales pipeline and increased levels of recurring
revenue provide the Board with confidence that the Group's progress
over the last year is set to continue in the coming year and
beyond.
Trading in the new financial year has begun positively and is in
line with Board expectations, with several new contracts secured
and growth in the sales pipeline.
While cognisant of inflationary cost pressures, the Board
remains confident in delivering results for FY 2023 in line with
current expectations.
We believe the investments we are making in our people and
technology put us in the right place to capitalise on this
supportive market backdrop, and we are confident in our ambition
and ability to deliver on our key priorities.

CFO Review
Summary
The Group delivered a solid financial performance in the year,
growing revenues, recurring revenues and adjusted EBITDA* profit
levels, whilst increasing investment in the business as part of the
three-year growth plan. The Group has also reported its first
operating profit and profit before tax for over a decade,
representing a significant shift from an operating loss of GBP1.2m
in the prior year.
Revenue
Group revenue increased by 10% (13% at constant currency) to
GBP27.0m from GBP24.6m in FY 2021.
Recurring revenue
The business strategy is to grow revenue from repeatable
business solutions on long-term contracts, including transitioning
towards selling only recurring term licences, rather than one-off
perpetual licences, aiming to increase the proportion of revenue
from recurring term licences compared to services. As a result, the
business achieved a growth in revenue of 13% (excluding the impact
of the reduction in perpetual licence revenue), and recurring
revenue, as a percentage of total revenue, increased to 45% (FY
2021: 43%).
Revenue by type is shown below:
Revenue by type
FY 2022 FY 2021 % change

Services 12.36 11.10 11%
Revenue (excluding perpetual
licences) 24.54 21.70 13%
Perpetual licences 2.49 2.90 (14%)
Total revenue 27.03 24.60 10%
Percentage of recurring revenue 45% 43%
* Adjusted EBITDA is a company-specific measure, which is
calculated as operating profit/(loss) before depreciation
(including right of use asset depreciation), amortisation and
impairment of intangible assets, share-based payment charge and
strategic, integration, and other non-recurring items
** Recurring revenue comprises term licences and support and
maintenance revenue.
ARR
The Annualised Recurring Revenue ("ARR") (annualised value at
the year-end of committed recurring contracts for licences and
support and maintenance) increased in the year by 26% (at constant
currency) from GBP10.7m to GBP13.4m as at 31 January 2022. The
growth rates varied by region as shown in the table below and in
the regional revenue analysis with the UK/Ireland region growing at
the fastest rate of 55%, boosted by the large strategic contract
wins in H2 FY 2022. The Group increased term licence ARR by 160% to
GBP4.1m (FY 2021: GBP1.6m). While some of this contracted revenue
relates to future years beyond FY 2023, it forms a strong platform
for recurring revenue for the business. The overall renewal rate
improved to 93% (FY 2021: 90%).
ARR by region
FY 2022 FY 2021 % growth
UK/Ireland 5.93 3.82 55%
Europe 4.79 4.71 2%
US 1.40 1.14 23%
Australia 1.32 1.01 31%
-------- -------- ---------
Total ARR 13.44 10.68 26%
-------- -------- ---------
Committed revenue
The level of committed revenue (revenue for future services,
licences and support contracts contracted at the balance sheet
date) increased significantly in the year from the business focus
of extending the commitment periods and duration of contracts, as
well as signing some higher value service contracts. The level of
committed project services revenue increased by 129% (at constant
currency) from GBP5.5m to GBP12.5m.
The strong pipeline of prospects, coupled with the increased ARR
and committed revenue, means that the Group starts the current
financial year with a higher proportion of current year revenue
already committed at the start of the year and a strong likelihood
of achieving further progress on its three year plan revenue growth
targets. With the business focus on developing, marketing and
selling repeatable software solutions under a SaaS model, there is
an increased level of revenue visibility, which allows the Board to
plan future investment with confidence.
Regional revenue
Revenue growth by region is shown in the table below:
Regional revenue

UK/Ireland 9.93 8.44 18% 18%

Total revenue 27.03 24.60 10% 13%
-------- -------- --------- -----------
Revenue (at constant currency) grew organically in all regions.
Revenue in the US, which now represents 14% of Group revenue (FY
2021: 12%), had the highest growth rate at 28% (37% at constant
currency). It was also pleasing to see strong growth in the
Australian region of 19%. The UK/Ireland region returned to growth
with double-digit growth of 18%. Revenue in the European business
grew organically by 2% at constant currency, having been impacted
by the reduction in one-off legacy Elyx licences sold in FY 2021 as
the business evolves towards more term licences.
Gross profit margin
The gross margin reduced to 52% compared to 53%, impacted partly
by the Board's decision to increase sales and delivery capacity in
order to aim to secure higher value contracts, and increased
spending on R&D, which is included within the cost of sales.
Furthermore, the prior year benefitted (within the cost of sales)
from grants given by overseas governments (GBP0.3m) as part of
business Covid-19 support schemes. On a like-for-like basis, (i.e.
excluding the impact of this benefit), the gross margin was at a
similar level to the prior year (52%). Going forward, the
management team are focused on driving improvements to gross margin
through revenue growth of higher margin term licences.
Adjusted EBITDA*
The adjusted EBITDA* increased by 15% to GBP4.2m from GBP3.6m in
the prior year resulting in a higher EBITDA margin of 15.5% (FY
2021: 14.8%). Cost management remains an important focus and
expenses are constantly reviewed to ensure the level is appropriate
for the structure of the business during this growth phase.
Operating profit/(loss) and profit/(loss) before tax
The Group achieved an operating profit of GBP0.4m and profit
before tax of GBP0.2m, representing a significant shift from an
operating loss of GBP1.2m and loss before tax of GBP1.4m for the
prior year.
Taxation
The net tax charge for the period was GBP43k (FY 2021: credit
GBP0.3m).
Balance sheet
The Group's net assets increased to GBP15.1m at 31 January 2022
(2021: GBP14.7m), mainly due to the overall profit after tax offset
by currency losses in reserves.
Trade and other receivables increased in the year to GBP12.3m
(FY 2021: GBP10.9m), mainly due to increased accrued income at year
end following contract wins in Q4. Trade and other payables were at
a similar level to the prior year at GBP13.3m (2021: GBP13.4m).
Cash flow
Operating cash inflow (before strategic, integration and other
non-recurring items) reduced to GBP2.8m (2021: GBP4 .2m) primarily
due to the working capital requirements on larger contracts signed
in H2. As part of the three-year growth plan, the Group invested
free cash in expanding the sales and delivery team and cloud
technology and this impacted the operating cash flow and free cash
flow as shown below.

* Free cash flow is defined as net increase/ (decrease) in cash

subsidiaries, cash flows from new borrowings and repayments of
borrowings and cash flow from new share issue.
Investment in R&D
Development costs capitalised in the year increased to GBP2.4m
(FY 2021 GBP2.1m) as the business has increased its investment in
its technology and business solutions. Amortisation of development
costs was GBP1.7m (FY 2021 GBP1.9m).
Financing
The Group's financial position is supported by long-term bank
loans. At the end of January 2022, the remaining principal balance
outstanding was GBP2.4m (2021: GBP3.0m). The amount repayable in FY
2023 is approximately EUR0.6m (GBP0.5m). With a gross cash position
of GBP5.6m at 31 January 2022 (FY 2021: GBP7.3m), a growing EBITDA
and positive operating cash generation, the business is in a
healthy financial position, which gives the Board the confidence to
continue to invest in its three-year growth plan.
Going forward, the Board and management teams are focused on
increasing revenues, in particular recurring revenues, whilst
improving the Group's profitability and cash generation.

Environmental, Social and Governance
ESG - OUR FUTURE
At 1Spatial, supporting the environment, our people and our
planet are fundamental to what drives us as a business. Our purpose
of making the world safer, smarter and more sustainable underpins
everything that we do.
Smarter data, smarter future
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) considerations are an
important part of our sustainable growth strategy and commitment to
Net Zero. These considerations are already reflected in the
policies and principles that govern our business.
We are developing an ESG strategy that will set out our target
outcomes and the actions we expect to take to deliver these. We
believe ESG should be incorporated into our culture and
decision-making at all levels, and aim to continuously measure,
benchmark, monitor and report on our activities to the management
team and Board.
Materiality assessment
We have actively engaged with our stakeholders in the first
phase of ESG strategy development process. Their input will help us
map and prioritise areas that are of high importance. These
material issues will inform our strategic objectives and help us to
track and report on our overall performance.
We consulted with the following stakeholder groups:
1. Customers
2. Employees
3. Board members and senior management
4. Shareholders
5. Partners
6. Suppliers
The process
Firstly we conducted a preliminary desktop review, including a
peer analysis, an assessment of our current practices, processes
and policies, an industry benchmarking exercise and a customer
requirements analysis to map the significant ESG issues in our
industry.
Through this process we identified an initial list of 13 issues
that are of high importance and relevance to our industry and
business.
These issues are listed below, in no particular order of
importance:
-- Leadership and business ethics
-- Employee experience
-- Supply chain management
-- Material use and waste
-- Compliance and regulation
-- Diversity, equality and inclusion
-- Energy and climate impact
-- Data privacy and security
-- Environmental stewardship
-- Health and safety
-- Nurturing and developing talent
-- Digital capabilities
-- Community impact
The next step will be the prioritisation of a core set of issues
that will guide the development of our ESG strategy, with
associated goals and targets that will be communicated to our
stakeholders.

Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 31 January 2022
1. Basis of preparation
The preliminary information of 1Spatial plc have been prepared
in accordance with international accounting standards in conformity
with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The "requirements
of the Companies Act 2006" here means accounts being prepared in
accordance with "international accounting standards" as defined in
section 474(1) of that Act, as it applied immediately before IP
completion day (end of transition period), including where the
company also makes use of standards which have been adopted for use
within the United Kingdom in accordance with regulation 1(5) of the
International Accounting Standards and European Public Limited
Liability Company (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019. The
consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the
historical cost convention.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS
requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also
requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of
applying the Group's accounting policies.
The results shown for the year ended 31 January 2022 and 31
January 2021 are audited. The consolidated financial information
contained in this announcement does not constitute statutory
accounts within the meaning of Section 434 of the Companies Act
2006. Statutory accounts of the Company in respect of the financial
year ended 31 January 2022 were approved by the Board of directors
on 26 April 2022 and will be delivered to the Registrar of
Companies in due course. The report of the auditors on those
accounts was unqualified and did not contain an emphasis of matter
paragraph nor any statement under Section 498 of the Companies Act
2006.
2. Going concern
The Board used as its basis for the going concern review the
budget for the FY23 year, rolled out to 31 July 2023 using part of
its forecast for FY 2024, so that a full 12-month period from the
date of signing the FY22 Annual Report and Accounts is considered.
Due to the uncertainty from potential macro-economic impacts, in
addition to applying the normal sensitivities to cash flows, the
going concern review also included a reverse-stress test to
demonstrate that even if new business and renewals are severely
impacted by further pandemic lockdowns, or global knock-on impacts
from the war in Ukraine, the finances of the Group are in a robust
position.
The year ended 31 January 2022 saw a record year for new
business, including signing the two highest value contracts in the
Group's history, and there was a strong performance in all regions.
In addition, FY 2022 was a year of increased revenue, double-digit
growth in recurring revenue, and increased adjusted EBITDA*, with a
cash conversion of around 60%. Furthermore, ARR increased to
GBP13.4m and committed service revenue increased to GBP12.5m. We
have entered the new year with a record level of contracted future
revenue, a wide range of customers in stable industry segments of
Government, Utilities and Transport and growing proof of delivery
in all regions. This provides a solid financial foundation for the
achievement of the current year's revenue target.
The operating cash flow was positive but was impacted by working
capital requirements on larger projects and the decision to invest
in growing the business for the longer term. The Group started the
current financial year on 1 February 2022 with cash of GBP5.6m and
debt of GBP2.4m, giving net funds (before lease liabilities) of
GBP3.2m.
The growth of the pipeline of new business opportunities, and
accelerated win rate in recent months, provides the Board with
confidence that 1Spatial is on a path of further profitable growth.
The Board has concluded, after reviewing the work performed and
detailed above, that the Group has adequate resources to continue
in operation for at least 12 months from the date of approval of
the financial statements. Accordingly, they have adopted the going
concern basis in preparing these financial statements.
3. Segmental information
The chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the
Board of Directors, which makes the Group's strategic decisions.
The Group is now focused on developing and selling repeatable
solutions and recurring term licences globally, with associated
support services. As such, the Board considers that the Group
operates with only one segment and one CGU under one global
strategy and the results are accordingly presented as group results
only.
The following table provides an analysis of the Group's revenue
by type.

The Board assesses the performance of the Group based on a
measure of adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is a company-specific
measure which is calculated as operating loss before depreciation
(including right of use asset depreciation), amortisation and
impairment of intangible assets, share-based payment charge and
strategic, integration, and other non-recurring items (see note 4).
As these are non-GAAP measures, they should not be considered as
replacements for IFRS measures. The Group's definition of these
non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled
measures reported by other companies.
The following table provides an analysis of the Group's revenue
by country of domicile, split by whether the revenue is recognised
at a point in time or over time.

has no significant concentration risk with no major customers
representing more than 10% of Group revenue. (2021: nil).
The Group has significant contract balances (both assets and
liabilities), which arise out of the ordinary course of its
operations. Contract assets include accrued income, which arises
where chargeable work is performed, and the revenue is recognised
based upon satisfaction of performance obligations in advance of
invoicing the client. This can arise because, particularly for some
larger projects, client invoicing may be in stages and linked to
project milestones. Once an invoice is raised then the related
accrued income will be reduced by the invoiced amount.
Significant contract liabilities arise when a client has been
invoiced annually in advance (for example, for annual support and
maintenance contracts) and the revenue is recognised on a monthly
basis over the year. In that case, the initial invoiced amount is
fully deferred and then released to the profit and loss over the
course of the contract.
The following table provides an analysis of the Group's
non-current assets by location.

Amendments to Geomap-Imagis Share Purchase Agreement (SPA)
The final step in the integration of Geomap-Imagis ("G-I"),
which was acquired in May 2019, was completed in March 2021. As
part of the restructuring, two of the G-I founders and former
directors left the business and the parties amended the original
SPA as explained below.
Under the original terms, the Group agreed to pay the vendors
consideration, which included EUR1,166,999 to be satisfied by the
issue by 1Spatial of ordinary shares (the "Consideration
Shares").
Of the consideration to be satisfied by the issue of the
Consideration Shares, EUR726,459 was satisfied immediately upon
Completion, with the balance of EUR440,540 originally to be
satisfied on 30 March 2023 (the "Deferred Share Consideration
Amount"). Accordingly, on Completion the Company issued to the
vendors 1,902,686 new ordinary shares (the "Initial Consideration
Shares"), subject to a lock up obligation until 31 December
2021.
In connection with completion of the integration of G-I, the
Group entered into an Amendment Agreement with two GI founders and
former directors in March 2021 to amend the terms of the original
agreement primarily as follows:
-- Release 1,765,173 of the Initial Consideration Shares (the
"Released Shares") from the above-mentioned
lock up obligation; and
-- pay out in cash to certain of the vendors, at the earlier
date of 10 September 2022, EUR408,701 of the Deferred Share
Consideration Amount.
The balance of consideration EUR31,839 is to be issued in shares
on 30 March 2023.

A change to the UK corporation tax rate was substantively
enacted as part of the Finance No. 2 Bill 2021 (on 24 May 2021) to
increase the main rate of UK corporation tax to 25% with effect
from 1 April 2023. As such, the relevant deferred tax balances for
UK group companies have been measured at 25% for the current
year-end, being the tax rate enacted by the reporting date (2021:
19%) for temporary differences expected to reverse after 1 April
2023.

Impairment tests for goodwill
Goodwill is assessed for the Group as a whole as the Group
operates with one segment and one CGU. The Group moved from two
CGUs to one in FY 2021 as the Group manages its operations under
one global strategy and the European acquisition in 2019 is now
fully integrated into the business. All aspects of the business are
focusing now on growing recurring revenue of repeatable solutions
using technology that will be deployed globally under a single
strategy. Products developed by regional development teams are
marketed globally.

========= =========
Basis for calculation of recoverable amount
The Group has prepared, and formally approved, a five-year plan
for its CGU (based on a formal 2-year plan extended for three more
projected years). The detailed plan put together by the management
team and the Board makes estimates for revenue and gross profit
expectations. This is from both contracted and pipeline revenue
streams. It also takes account of historical success of winning new
work and has been prepared in accordance with IAS 36: 'Impairment
of Assets'.
The key assumptions used in the value in use calculations were
the pre-tax discount rates applied (13%) and the growth
assumptions. Growth in sales and corresponding costs for the
five-year period has been forecast at 9% and 7% per annum
respectively.
The rates used in the above assumptions are consistent with
management's knowledge of the industry and strategic plans going
forward. The assumptions noted above have been given in terms of
revenue and overhead percentage growth. For 2023 and subsequent
years, the assumption has been provided in terms of growth on the
prior year EBITDA. The terminal growth rate of 2% does not exceed
the long-term growth rate for the business in which the CGUs
operate. The discount rate used is pre-tax and reflect specific
risks relating to the Group. The forecasts are most sensitive to
changes in revenue and overhead assumptions (taken together as the
EBITDA). However, there are no major changes to the key assumptions
which would cause the goodwill to be impaired.
There would have to be a reduction in forecast EBITDA by 18% on
average for the five year-period ending 31 January 2027) for the
headroom to be removed.

The fair value of the Group's trade receivables and other
receivables is the same as its book value stated above. No interest
is charged on overdue receivables.
At 31 January 2022, trade receivables of GBP3,653,000 (2021:
GBP3,541,000) were fully performing. Before accepting any new
customer, the Group assesses the potential customer's credit
quality and defines credit limits by customer.
The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring
expected credit losses using a lifetime expected credit loss
provision for trade receivables and contract assets. To measure
expected credit losses on a collective basis, trade receivables and
contract assets are grouped based on similar credit risk and aging.
The contract assets have similar risk characteristics to the trade
receivables for similar types of contracts. The expected credit
losses are based on the Group's historical credit losses which are
then adjusted for current and forward-looking information on
macroeconomic factors affecting the Group's customers. The Group
has identified gross domestic growth rates, unemployment rates and
inflation rates as the key macroeconomic factors in the countries
in which the Group operates.
At 31 January 2022, trade receivables of GBP1,242,000 (2021:
GBP1,986,000) were past due but not impaired. The ageing analysis
of these customers is set out below. There has been no change in
the credit quality of these balances; they relate to customers
where there is no history of default and are still considered fully
recoverable.
The ageing of these receivables is as follows:

The deferred shares do not carry voting rights or a right to
receive a dividend. The holders of deferred shares will not have
the right to receive notice of any general meeting of the Company,
nor have any right to attend, speak or vote at any such meeting.
The deferred shares will also be incapable of transfer (other
than to the Company). In addition, holders of deferred shares
will only be entitled to a payment on a return of capital or
on a winding up of the Company after each of the holders of ordinary
shares has received a payment of GBP1,000,000 in respect of each
ordinary share. Accordingly, the deferred shares will have no
economic value. No application will be made for the deferred
shares to be admitted to trading on AIM nor to trading on any
other stock or investment exchange.
Voting Rights
1Spatial Plc has 110,805,795 ordinary shares of 10p in issue,

approximate value of EUR0.03 million (EUR0.4m at 31 January 2021)
due to be issued in March 2023, in relation to the Geomap-Imagis
acquisition. See note 4.

There is no material difference between basic earnings per share
and diluted earnings per share.
For the year ended 31 January 2021, basic loss per share and
diluted loss per share are the same because the options are
anti-dilutive. Therefore, they have been excluded from the
calculation of diluted weighted average number of ordinary
shares.
