Glantus Holdings PLC

28 September 2022

THIS ANNOUNCEMENT CONTAINS INSIDE INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES OF ARTICLE 7 OF THE MARKET ABUSE REGULATION (EU) 596/2014 WHICH IS PART OF UK LAW BY VIRTUE OF THE EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL) ACT 2018.

Glantus (AIM: GLAN), a certified provider of software as a service ("SaaS") solution, capturing data for automation, visualisation and advanced analytics to the Accounts Payable ("AP") function is pleased to announce its interim results for the six months to 30 June 2022 ("H1 2022").

   --      Highlights 

o Revenue of EUR6.6m up by 54% (H1 2021: EUR4.3m) as a result of the combined effect of the acquiring additional customer bases, and both cross selling and upselling to existing clients

o Recurring revenue of EUR6.4m up by 70% (H1 2021: EUR3.8m) and Gross Profit of EUR4.8m up by 40% (H1 2021: EUR3.4m)

o Adjusted EBITDA of EUR0.7m down by 39% (H1 2021: EUR1.2m) reflecting acquisition related integration costs and a full period of plc costs

o Continued to migrate and consolidate all clients onto the one Glantus platform

o Improved margins of acquisitions through adopting the Glantus technology suite

o Focused on product enhancements and functionality to deliver improved tools to our clients to automate and analyse their AP function and improve their accounts payable function

o Aligned our operational infrastructure to support our global business and drive scale

o Made the strategic decision during the period to commence the relocation of the AP audit function of the business to a global shared services centre in Costa Rica. The ongoing relocation of the AP audit function of the business to Costa Rica is expected to deliver more productive and technology-led automated audits

o The Costa Rica relocation has resulted in associated set up costs being incurred in the period and further restructuring and relocation costs will be incurred in H2 2022 as the transition is implemented

   --      Other Post-Period End Highlights 

o Investments in revamped product naming and marketing to promote the breath of offering and additional modules to improve the Go to Market strategy

o Beta Testing of technology platform for new buyer led Supply Chain Finance product in planning

o As announced on 22 July 2022, the Company refinanced with Beach Point Capital at an improved rate and an additional EUR2m additional working capital facility

   --      Outlook 

o Glantus expects continued revenue growth through 2022, however, the relocation to Costa Rica has meant delays to the start of a number of audit mandates which will directly impact the timing of some transactional revenues which were anticipated in the second half of 2022

o Also, the Company anticipates that it will incur additional operational expenses in H2 2022 due to restructuring, refinancing and one time redundancy costs associated with the Costa Rica relocation

o Accordingly, as a result of the above, and a weaker outlook for the full year due to current global macroeconomic challenges, the Board now expects revenue and EBITDA to be significantly below market expectations for the full year

o In order to ensure that the Company is in a financial position to continue with its growth and restructuring initiatives and given it expects significant client payments to be received by the end of the financial year, it is in advanced negotiations regarding a EUR1.5m short-term working capital facility with its current lender Beach Point Capital. Beach Point Capital continues to be very supportive of the company and its strategy

o The Board is confident the relocation and restructuring costs being incurred will provide a robust global infrastructure fit for future growth, scale and improved productivity in 2023

o In addition, the Company expects to announce a new geographic expansion in due course and is working on being in a position to announce a financing partner for the Supply Chain Finance Product in preparation for launch in 2023

o Looking further ahead, the Board remains confident in the Group's strategy and in its medium-term growth prospects, underpinned by the Group's compelling product offering and current investment in growth initiatives

Maurice Healy, CEO, commented:

"H1 of 2022 has been a very productive period for Glantus with our company profile, brand recognition and product offering making clear headway as we seek to become one of the dominant players in the AP SaaS marketplace.

With our improved product suite and functionality, expanded client base, and a focus on operational efficiency, we are primed for the next phase. Combining these attributes with our investment into a global shared services centre and the new product offerings heralds a strong future for our Company.

We have taken the strategic decision to execute the AP audit function relocation to Costa Rica to deliver more productive and technology-led automated audits. Whilst the relocation has been more challenging than anticipated it will be more productive for the Company in the long term and we expect it to improve profitability going forward.

We are also conscious of the current macroeconomic conditions which are increasingly challenging, but the Board remains confident in the Group's strategy and in its medium-term growth prospects, underpinned by the Group's compelling product offering and current investment in growth initiatives."

Chief Executive Officer's Review

Executive Summary

I am pleased to report our results for the six-month period 1 Jan 2022 to 30 June 2022.

Demand continues to grow for Accounts Payable solutions. As a leading provider of SaaS solutions that help global corporations analyse, automate and digitise their Accounts Payable function to expose and recover lost working capital, Glantus is capitalising on this demand.

The Company delivered a pleasing performance in H1 and in line with its ambitious growth plans, with revenue growing by 54% to EUR6.6m and reoccurring income up 70%. However along with the positives and the benefits to come from the restructuring of operations which have been more challenging than anticipated, our outlook for full year 2022 has become more cautious.

2022 will be a year when we get the infrastructure in place to make our Company robust and well-positioned to scale.

We have some great Tailwinds

-- Strong revenue growth of 54% and recurring income up by 70%. This is driven by two successful acquisitions and ongoing organic growth.

-- Investments of EUR771k in product development pave the way to sustainable growth and a broader product suite Glantus is continually investing in our technology and product suite to ensure we stand out in the AP marketplace

-- Glantus reputation is growing as a leading vendor in the Accounts Payable and Spend Analysis space ranking 7(th) out of 62 in the G2 recent research paper.

The Headwinds we are experiencing in 2022

-- The Macro environment with economic, inflationary pressures and currency risk is continually under scrutiny by the Executive leadership team and has resulted in a more cautious view of the reminder of 2022.

-- Revenue growth for the full year is lower than previously anticipated, the relocation to Costa Rica has meant delays to the start of a number of audit mandates which will directly impact the timing of some transactional revenues which were anticipated in the second half of 2022.

We continue to focus on our strategic priorities: product development and expanding globally to drive revenue growth and profitability.

Enhancing our existing product suite

o We have consolidated the branding of our product portfolio of 4 products to form a simplified offering

o During the second quarter, we continued to build upon our cohesive suite of products across channels

Expanding Globally

o We improved product and client relationships in several of our newest markets during the second quarter by launching a newly reorganised sales organisation

Revenues

Total revenue increased by 54% to EUR6.6m (H1 2021: EUR4.3m) with growth in recurring revenue.

Recurring revenue is the revenue that annually repeats either under contractual subscription or predictable transactional billing. Subscription revenue of EUR2.5m is continuing to grow demonstrating a sustainable growth trend underpinning future revenue forecasts. Total subscription contracted value is EUR5.0m (H1 2021: EUR 4.9m). Subscription churn remains low at 3% (H1 2021: 4%).

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased by 40% to EUR4.8m (H1 2021: EUR3.4m) which reflects the integration of the 2 new acquisitions of Technology Insight Corporation and Meridian Cost Benefit acquired in H2 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA

Management has presented the performance measure 'adjusted EBITDA' as it monitors this performance measure at a consolidated level, and the Board considers that this metric provides the best measure of assessing underlying trading performances.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting profit before taxation to exclude impact of net finance costs, depreciation, amortisation, share based payment charges and exceptional items.

Adjusted EBITDA decreased by 39% to EUR0.7m (H1 2021: EUR1.2m) resulting from increased salary costs, investment, full period of plc costs, marketing initiatives, acquisition costs and FX movements.

Net Debt

As at the 30 June 2022, the Net debt position of the company was EUR12.27m and cash was EUR391k. This further increased post 30 June 2022 by an additional EUR2m working capital facility as announced on 22 July 2022. As explained earlier in the statement, the Group is in advanced negotiations regarding a further EUR1.5m short term working capital facility which would be expected to be repaid in in short order from cash generated from trading.

Conclusion

The Group is experiencing a number of headwinds currently as set out above, accordingly, the Group expects full year revenue and EBITDA to be significantly below market expectations.

Despite this, with an expanding customer base, a growing acquisition pipeline and market-ready products, management views the longer-term outlook for Glantus with increased optimism and excitement despite the immediate short-term and macro headwinds.

Notes to the unaudited interim statements

   1.     General Information 

Glantus Holdings Plc ("the Company" or the "Group") is a public limited company incorporated in the Republic of Ireland. The registered office is Marina House, Eastpoint Business Park, Dublin 3.

The principal activity of the Group is the specialist provision of next generation and world class software platforms focused on manufacturing, distribution and related industries.

   2.     Accounting policies 

Basis of preparation

These interim financial statements are non-statutory general-purpose financial statements for the six-month period ended 30 June 2022. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the European Union, and the Companies Act 2014. They do not include all of the information required in annual financial statements in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual consolidated financial information for the year ended 31 December 2021 included in the Annual Report.

The interim financial statements for the six-month period ended 30 June 2022 should be read in conjunction with the consolidated results for the year ended 31 December 2021 included in the Annual Report, and any public announcements made by the company during the interim reporting period.

The interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis. The interim financial statements of the Group are presented in Euro ("EUR") which is also the functional currency of the Company.

The Group's accounting policies are set out in the Company's Annual Report.

The preparation of the interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may subsequently differ from those estimates. In preparing the interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same, in all material respects, as those applied to the consolidated results for the year ended 31 December 2021 included in the Annual Report.

Going concern

At the time of approving these interim accounts, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the interim financial statements.

The interim financial statements are unaudited and were approved by the Board of Directors on [27/09/22].

   3.     Segmental Reporting 

Segmental information is presented in respect of the group's geographical regions and operating segments in accordance with IFRS 8 'Operating Segments'. The Board considers that there is one identifiable business segment being the provision of enterprise software solutions.

Recurring revenue is the revenue that annually repeats either under contractual subscription or predicable transactional billing.
