CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER'S REPORT

Overview

The Company continues to grow strongly as these excellent interim results show.  All key KPIs are at record highs for a six-month period, including revenue, profit and cash.

Revenue has increased by 27% year-on-year to £20.5m (H1 2022: £16.1m), reflecting the major implementation and upgrade projects under way with new customers and strong flows of business from existing customers, as well as an increased baseline of recurring income. Annualised recurring revenue at 31 March 2023 was 34% higher than a year ago at £13.1m (H1 2022: £9.8m), which mainly reflected the continuing trend for customers to take up managed services. Adjusted profit before tax rose by 46% to £9.2m (H1 2022:  £6.3m). Net cash at the end of March 2023 was up by 43% at £23.6m (31 March 2022: £16.5m).

Total new orders increased year-on-year by 40% to £15.3m (31 March 2022: £10.9m) and the value of the new customer sales pipeline rose by 23% to £212m (31 March 2022: £172m).  We are in advanced discussions with certain potential new customers and expect new customer contracts to come through in the second half and beyond. 

To accommodate the Company's growth, we have continued to develop our resource base. The new office in Sofia, Bulgaria has now grown to a team of over 20 delivery consultants, and we have added to the teams established at our new satellite offices in India, in Ahmedabad and Indore. In Ahmedabad, we are focusing on recruiting support resources, whilst in Indore, we are building a team of digital customer experience developers. This continues our policy of aiming to source the best people while also managing the cost base effectively, particularly given inflationary pressures.

From a market perspective, we are continuing to see strong investment in 5G and broadband infrastructure. This will create substantial opportunities for Cerillion as communications service providers seek to monetise those new assets and gain more value from their network real estate.         

Looking ahead over the balance of the current financial year, we remain very confident of continuing progress, supported by our strong back-order book and new customer sales pipeline.

Financial Overview

Revenue for the six months ended 31 March 2023 increased by 27% to £20.5m (H1 2022: £16.1m), which reflected the strong opening back-order book, including ongoing major implementation projects, and new orders from existing customers.

The mix of revenue was more weighted towards Software¹ compared to the prior period, with Software revenue of £10.5m accounting for 51% of total revenue (H1 2022: £6.1m and 38% of total revenue). This was a 72% rise year-on-year and mainly reflected the timing of software licence recognition. Services revenue¹ of £8.9m made up 44% of total revenue (H1 2022: £9.0m and 56% of total revenue). Other revenue of £1.0m accounted for 5% of total revenue (H1 2022: £1.0m and 6% of total revenue).

Gross margin for the period increased to 81.5% (H1 2022: 78.5%). This rise principally reflected the higher proportion of software licence revenue recognised, as well as a favourable impact from foreign exchange rates. Whilst headcount increased in all regions to support growth, our focus on building resources in India and Bulgaria helped to reduce overall payroll inflation across the Group.

Existing customers (those customers acquired at least 12 months before the end of the reporting period) made up a high proportion of the Group's revenue, as is typical, and generated 89% of total revenue in the period (H1 2022: 91%).

Recurring revenue², from support and maintenance and managed service contracts, grew by 36% to £6.5m (H1 2022: £4.8m) and accounted for 32% of the Group's revenue (H1 2022: 30%). The rise largely reflected increased uptake of managed services, from both new and existing customer deployments, and support and maintenance fee increments.  Annualised recurring revenue at the end of March 2023 increased by 34% year-on-year to £13.1m (31 March 2022: £9.8m).

As expected, operating expenses increased to £8.3m (H1 2022: £7.0m), an 18% rise. The main factors behind the rise were higher headcount, higher sales commission and the effect of foreign exchange rates. On a constant currency basis, operating expenses increased by 13%.

Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation ("EBITDA"), which excludes share based payments charges, rose by 38% to £10.0m (H1 2022: £7.2m). Statutory EBITDA increased by 39% to £9.9m (H1 2022: £7.1m).

Adjusted profit before tax³ rose by 46% to £9.2m (H1 2022: £6.3m) and adjusted earnings per share⁴ was 37% higher at 25.5p (H1 2022: 18.6p). Statutory profit before tax increased by 52% to £8.6m (H1 2022: £5.7m), and statutory earnings per share increased by 43% to 23.5p (H1 2022: 16.4p).

The balance sheet remains strong.  Net assets rose by 38% to £31.8m as at 31 March 2023 (31 March 2022: £23.0m).

Cash Flow and Banking

Net cash at 31 March 2023 increased by 43% to £23.6m (31 March 2022: £16.5m), with no debt in either periods. Net cash generated from operations in the period was £6.6m (H1 2022: £6.5m).

Development costs of £0.6m were capitalised in the period (H1 2022: £0.5m) after investment to further enhance the Company's intellectual property.

Expenditure on fixed assets was £0.2m (H1 2022: £0.1m). 

Free cash generation in the period was broadly maintained at £5.8m (H1 2022: £5.9m), principally reflecting the higher profit, offset by an increase in working capital due to the higher software licence revenue recognised.  Cash generated in the period was partly utilised to pay the final dividend of £1.9m (H1 2022: £1.5m) in respect of the year ended 30 September 2022.

Dividend

The Board is pleased to declare an increased interim dividend of 3.3p per share (H1 2022: 2.6p), a 27% rise year-on-year. The interim dividend will become payable on 23 June 2023 to those shareholders on the Company's register as at the close of business on the record date of 2 June 2023. The ex-dividend date is 1 June 2023. 

As previously stated, the Board aims to distribute between a third to a half of the Group's free cash flow as dividends each year, subject to the Group's performance and the Board's assessment of the trading environment.

Operational Overview

Demand from the existing customer base was very healthy over the first half, with new orders from existing customers up by 40% to £15.3m (H1 2022: £10.9m). These new orders included additional modules, software licence expansions, scope expansions on implementation projects, upgrade programmes and managed services. We were particularly pleased to agree a major new 10-year contract worth £10 million with an existing customer with operations in EMEA, continuing a 20 year-relationship. We also signed a £6 million agreement, which has a five-year term, with another EMEA customer. The new customer sales pipeline grew strongly, up 23%, to £212m as at 31 March 2023 (31 March 2022: £172m), and with certain discussions at an advanced stage, we expect to close new customer orders in the second half and beyond. 

The back-order book stood at a very healthy level of £43.0m at 31 March 2023 (31 March 2022: £39.7m), buoyed by new orders. These contracted (but not yet recognised) orders will drive revenues over the coming quarters. It is also very encouraging to see the Group's base of recurring revenue increase as the business grows and both new and existing customers take up managed services and support and maintenance contracts. We expect this trend to continue.

The BSS/OSS⁵ solutions that we provide remain a core requirement for telecommunications operators and service providers, and substantial investment in 5G and fibre rollout continues to drive investment in replacing, upgrading and improving BSS/OSS solutions. This is done in order to drive more revenue from the network infrastructure real estate, with BSS/OSS solutions providing the bridge between network and customer and hence monetisation. The importance of the solutions that the Company provides is illustrated in a survey⁶ of communications service providers, published by Gartner, the US-based technological research and consulting firm, in April 2023. The survey cites the following as priorities for software investments, all of which are enabled by the Company's solutions:

•	Digitisation of sales and support;
•	Support for new business models/product types;
•	Improved customer lifetime values; and
•	Improved customer experience and engagement.

In order to enhance our product offering and our competitive positioning, we continue to invest in R&D and issue two major product releases a year. These provide new features and improvements to existing functionality. This year, we expect to invest a total of approximately 12,000 man-days in R&D.

We have also continued to expand and develop our teams, as noted above, adding new and experienced talent in the UK, Bulgaria and India.

Outlook

The business has made strong progress and is very well placed in a growing marketplace. Our 'productised', 'as-a-service' approach stands out, and the quality, breadth and completeness of our solutions provides us with strong competitive differentiation.

We believe that Cerillion remains well-positioned to achieve its full year targets, supported by existing major implementation projects, the healthy back-order book, and our strong new customer pipeline, which includes a number of advanced-stage new contract discussions.

The Company's robust balance sheet, which carries no debt, and the increasing level of recurring income, provide a strong underpinning for the business as it continues to grow and develop. The Board views near and mid-term growth prospects very positively.

Alan Howarth Chairman

Louis Hall Chief Executive Officer

Notes:

¹ Software revenue is made up of software licence, support and maintenance, managed service and Cerillion Skyline revenue. In the prior period, software revenue was only made up of software licence and support and maintenance revenue; managed service and Cerillion Skyline revenue were included within services. The prior period comparatives have been restated to reflect the updated definition, which is consistent with that used for year-end reporting.

² Recurring revenue includes annualised support and maintenance, managed service and Cerillion Skyline revenue.

³ Adjusted profit before tax is a non-GAAP, Company-specific measure which is earnings excluding taxes, amortisation of acquired intangible assets and share-based payments charges.

⁴ Adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP, Company-specific measure which is earnings after taxes, excluding share-based payments charges and amortisation of acquired intangible assets divided by the average weighted number of shares in the period.

⁵ BSS/OSS; in telecommunications, this refers respectively to business support systems and operating support systems.

1.    Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies

The condensed financial information is unaudited and was approved by the Board of Directors on 12 May 2023.

The Company is a public limited company, which was incorporated in England and Wales on 5 March 2015. The address of its registered office is 25 Bedford Street, London, WC2E 9ES. The interim financial information for the six months ended 31 March 2023 has been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards. The interim financial information for the six months ended 31 March 2023 has been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The interim financial information for the six months ended 31 March 2023 does not constitute statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act. Statutory accounts for the year ended 30 September 2022 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. These accounts contain an unqualified audit report and did not contain a statement under the Companies Act 2006 regarding matters which are required to be noted by exception.

The preparation of the interim financial information for the six months ended 31 March 2023 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of the amount, event or actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the adoption of new and amended standards which have no material impact on the accounting policies, financial position or performance of the Group.

There is no material difference between the fair value of financial assets and liabilities and their carrying amount.

The functional and presentational currency is UK Sterling.

2.    Going concern

The Directors have assessed the current financial position of the Group, along with future cash flow requirements, to determine if the Group has the financial resources to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. The conclusion of this assessment is that it is appropriate that the Group be considered a going concern. For this reason the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the interim financial information for the six months ended 31 March 2023. The interim financial information does not include any adjustments that would result in the going concern basis of preparation being inappropriate.

3.    Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial information incorporates the financial information of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries) at 31 March 2023. Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an investee entity so as to obtain benefit from its activities.

Except as noted below, the financial information of subsidiaries is included in the consolidated financial statements using the acquisition method of accounting. On the date of acquisition the assets and liabilities of the relevant subsidiaries are measured at their fair values.

All intra-Group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

4.    Adjusted earnings

EBITDA, profit before tax, profit for the period and earnings per share have been adjusted to take account of £116,558 (six months to 31 March 2022 £136,836) relating to P&L charges in respect of the Company's share based payments charges. The profit before tax, profit for the period and earnings per share have also been adjusted to take account of the amortisation of acquired intangibles of £496,416 (six months to 31 March 2022 £496,416).
