Notes to editors

The Pelatro Group was founded in March 2013 by Subash Menon and Sudeesh Yezhuvath with the objective of offering specialised, enterprise class software solutions for customer engagement principally to telcos who face a series of challenges including market maturity, saturation and customer churn.

Pelatro provides its "mViva" platform for use by customers in B2C and B2B applications and is well positioned in the Customer Engagement space. Our technology orchestrates the digital journey of the customers of the telcos through contextual, relevant and real time offers and loyalty programs across multiple channels including websites, social media, apps and others.

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Overview

The markets we serve have become increasingly sophisticated but the underlying themes of providing good service with outstanding products and generating real value for our customers continues to serve us and our customer base well. For us this has resulted in a year of consolidating our position as a recurring revenues service provider as well as winning new customers, ensuring we are able to report healthy growth in our business. We will still provide our software and services through a licence model if that is preferred by a customer, but this is no longer the norm.

Operations

We started the year in January 2021 with our mViva platform being chosen by an Asian telco for campaign management operations. This Asian telco is part of a much larger international telco group and we have found this is an ideal way to penetrate these larger diverse entities. We followed this with a Framework Agreement later in the year with the parent company, so that its operating companies in various jurisdictions can be serviced by Pelatro under one agreement. Including these and despite the Covid situation, Pelatro won three new telco customers in 2021, taking us to 23 customers in various countries around the world. We have also been extending the breadth and quality of our products and services we provide to our telco customers. Part of our growth effort has been directed towards the non-telco space, where non-telco brand campaigns and adverts can be sent to consumers via their mobile phones. We have recruited a senior manager for this area and are building the team but are proceeding cautiously in terms of new contracts to ensure that they are on appropriate terms.

India has taken longer to emerge from the various Covid disruptions than the UK and currently continues to remain cautious with regards to Covid. With our main operations based in Bangalore, we have successfully managed home working by our staff which has meant there has not been a significant effect on our day-to day operations and we have been able to continue to provide excellent levels of service to our customers. This included our five year Managed Services contract which went live with our largest customer in India. The implementation was smooth and successful, with over 400 million subscribers being transferred over to the new system.

The numbers of staff attending our offices safely for work has been at the 30% level for some time now and we expect this gradually to grow over the coming months. Our executive team have also been prevented from travelling overseas, but air travel has also opened up and they are now able to meet our international customer base and pursue new opportunities in person.

Non telco operations

Pelatro has been working on entering non telco sectors for the past nine months. We have initially focused on banks and fintech companies as sectors, with over 50 potential customers being targeted in India, as a geographic starting point. Through these extensive interactions over these months, it has become amply clear that these enterprises are keen on customer journey mapping, customer journey analytics and customer journey orchestration. This is a very new product set to these businesses but a number have expressed interest in exploring an engagement. Given our extensive experience in the telco sector our product mViva has very strong capabilities with respect to customer journey orchestration and on that basis we are confident of winning our first customer in this space during 2022.

We expect to undertake further recruitment to service this space when our initial customer engagements begin to mature and the business model develops further. The extent of this recruitment will depend on the potential geographic and sector breadth of the roll out.

Other developments

In June, we took the opportunity to raise approximately £3.3m through an equity placing of new shares with new and existing shareholders to help grow our sales and marketing as well as to repay debt and strengthen the Group's balance sheet. In December, our CFO Nic Hellyer, who had been with Pelatro for over four years on a part-time basis, moved to a full-time role with us.

We continue to closely monitor the situation in Ukraine, the response of international governments and any potential impact on the Group. Pelatro has a small development and support team in Russia, representing around 13% of the Group's cash cost base. This team can and does operate remotely with no requirement for travel, and is currently fully operational. The Group has no revenue from Russia or any other related sanctioned jurisdiction.

Outlook

Against this backdrop, we are delighted to be able to show in these results figures which are in line with expectations; with solid growth in the revenue line of over 80% to $7.3m from $4.0m the previous year, with the majority being of a recurring revenue nature. The Group also continues to trade in-line with expectations and our recurring revenue base gives us good visibility over the coming year and, together with our new business pipeline, gives us every confidence for the rest of 2022 and beyond.

MANAGING DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT

Change, as they say, is the only constant phenomenon. Does this mean change can only be involuntary and accidental? Absolutely not. The type of change that people and organisations benefit from are those that are brought about by design. Those that involve strategizing and meticulous execution - particularly when it comes to a company. Your company went through a well-orchestrated change during 2019 and 2020 and the results came in during 2021.

The Orchestrated Change

When we started the process in 2019, we had clearly articulated both the goal and the path to it. The objective was to shift our revenue model from a one-time license fee model to recurring and/or repeating revenue, with an emphasis on recurring. Given that recurring revenue is now a sustainable 70% or so of revenue we believe we have achieved that goal. Furthermore, from a low of 20% at the time of the IPO in 2017, recurring and repeating business has gone up to around 90%, thereby significantly increasing the predictability and stability of the revenue stream, with the visibility quite high at the start of the year itself, with a key element of this being the quantum of annual recurring revenue ("ARR") as we win new contracts. We believe that we have now reached a stable level with respect to the share of these revenue streams and that augurs well for the business going forward.

Growing Customer Base  

Over the years, we have been successful in adding customers. While this was impacted by Covid-19, we added three new customers in 2021 taking our tally to 23 customers in 20 countries. Some of the key statistics are given below.

• Processing data of over one billion subscribers every day

• Processing over 60 billion transactions per day, in real time, in one customer site alone

• Executing over 15,000 campaigns every day

• Present in 20 countries

Scale is a critical element for any enterprise software and for us that has now been well established. From a geographical perspective, we now have a dominant presence in Asia and Africa. Leveraging these achievements, we are now spreading into Europe.

Going Above and Beyond

Our customers are operating in a highly competitive market wherein they are being squeezed by two strong forces - reducing revenue per customer and increasing churn. Between these two debilitating factors, the telcos are finding it extremely difficult to increase revenue and margin. In this tough situation, vendors need to shoulder more responsibilities and become true partners. Pelatro is committed to this vision. Over the past few years, we have built extensive capabilities in the following areas.

• Development of campaign strategy

• Campaign consultancy

• Campaign execution

• Platform operation

• Reporting

With these enhanced capabilities, we help our customers to effectively use our solution to increase revenue and reduce churn. In many instances some of Pelatro's revenue is linked to performance thereby ensuring that interests are aligned with our customers. Thus, we share the risk perceived by our customers while helping them to meet their objectives to the fullest extent possible.

We have been on this specific journey for the past three years and are convinced that this is the way forward. Our customers are increasingly seeing us as partners and not mere vendors. They are highly appreciative of the value added by Pelatro with respect to both the software solution and the overall operations. Such engagements are flourishing on the basis of actual incremental revenue generated by Pelatro over the past few years and a comparison of the same with the status within the telcos prior to that period, and the uplift brought about by Pelatro is compelling enough for the telcos to increasingly rely on us for operations in the form of managed services.

As noted in the Chairman's statement we have also begun the journey similarly to add value to non-telco customers. We will invest in this side of the business prudently and, while it is early days, we expect these engagements to further increase our revenue in the years to come.

I take this opportunity to thank all of you and look forward to your continued support in our effort to go above and beyond.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Income Statement

Revenue

Out of our total revenue of $7.27m, approximately $4.79m (66%) arose from recurring revenue (2020: $2.85m), comprising some $3.46m from managed service and gain share contracts and the balance from post-contract support. A further $1.96m came from change requests (2020: $0.43m) which are not contractually "recurring" but tend to provide "repeat" income as our customers' usage of the product evolves. Accordingly, over 90% of revenue was "repeating" in nature, compared to just over 80% in 2020.

This increase reflects the push by the Group over the last few years into recurring revenue contracts which initially resulted in a fall in revenue as "one off" license revenues were replaced by sustainable longer-term contracts. Whilst the coronavirus pandemic over the last two years had a relatively limited impact on high-level decision making at our customers, it did nonetheless slow our marketing efforts which, for high-level enterprise software such as ours, do require some level of face-to-face contact. Despite this, three new customers were added during the year; this, together with the number of recurring revenue customers, further reduced customer concentration with now only two customers accounting for more than 10% of revenue.

Cost of sales and overheads

Cost of sales increased by 29% to $2.2m (2020: $1.7m). These costs comprise principally (i) the direct salary costs of providing software support and maintenance, professional services and consultancy; (ii) expensed customer implementation; (iii) third-party software maintenance and licensing costs; and (iv) sales commissions. The increase in 2021 results almost entirely from the full year effect of staff taken on to service managed service and similar contracts commenced in 2020.

Pre-exceptional overheads (excluding depreciation and amortisation) increased to $2.3m (2020: $1.9m), reflecting the increase in business activity and hence people costs, plus additional efforts in sales and marketing, notably establishing the Group presence via social media. Travel costs were maintained at a relatively low level given the ongoing restrictions on international travel and the Group's success in enabling support and implementation functions remotely.

Profitability

Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation and exceptional items, as adjusted for the effect of certain non-recurring or exceptional items) rose strongly by over 6x in the year to $2.81m (2020: $0.44m). After taking into account net finance costs and depreciation and amortisation (including c. $0.7m of acquisition-related amortisation) loss before tax was $(0.67)m (2020: loss of $(2.22)m before exceptional items).

Adjusted loss per share was (0.4)¢ (2020: loss of (5.5)¢), and reported loss per share was (2.1)¢ (2020: loss (7.2)¢).

Statement of Financial Position

Intangible assets

Capitalised development costs and patents

Capitalised development costs reduced slightly to $2.6m (2020: $2.9m) reflecting a reduction in direct costs attributable to software development, particularly in Nizhny Novgorod. Amounts capitalised during the year included investments in the mViva Contextual Marketing Platform ("CMP") which was developed from v.6.1 to v.6.2, the Unified Communication management ("UCM")/Link product from 12.1 to 13.0 and various new modules which add to and enhance the core product suite. The carrying value of these software assets together with the carrying value of software assets capitalised in previous periods was reviewed for impairment at the balance sheet date and no impairment was required.

The Group continues to protect its IP by registering patents when relevant and spent a further $30,000 on patent development over the year. Net of amortisation, the net book value of intangible assets relating to development costs and patents in the statement of financial position is approximately $6.4m (2020: $5.9m).

Property, plant and equipment

Expenditure on property, plant and equipment was minimal at $88,000, principally relating to IT and peripheral equipment. This compares to $0.9m in 2020 which related mainly to IT equipment placed on site at a customer's premises to implement the related managed services contract.

Depreciation in the year amounted to $0.30m (excluding amounts relating to Right-to-Use assets now recognised under IFRS 16, and gross of amounts capitalised as intangible assets) (2020: $0.20m). The increase largely reflects depreciation now charged on the customer site IT assets referred to above. The aggregate net book value of property, plant and equipment fell accordingly from $1.22m to $0.98m.

Right of use assets

The Group recognises certain long-term leases under IFRS 16 as "right of use" assets. The reduction in the overall value of the right of use assets from $0.31m in 2020 to $0.24m in 2021, is net of depreciation of $0.17m and capital additions of $0.1m. These additions do not reflect new leases but instead the capitalised value of expected extensions to current leases. The Group has had its office accommodation requirements (principally in Bangalore) under review for some time, however, the COVID pandemic and associated uncertainty had put such considerations on hold, but the Group now believes that a significant office consolidation will take place by the beginning of 2023.

Trade receivables and contract assets

Trade receivables

At 31 December 2021 total trade receivables (i.e. including long-term receivables) stood at $4.96m (2020: $3.48m). This figure includes:

(a) a receivable of $0.64m the payment of which is subject to a government approval process in the customer's jurisdiction. This process generally leads to a substantial delay to the payment of the amount outstanding - the payment concerned was originally expected in Q4 2021; however, the delay was compounded by a change to the underlying procedure which has resulted in the payment now being expected in Q2 2022. This delay is purely procedural and no impairment of the underlying amount is expected; and

(b) a receivable of $1.14m relating to an entire license contract which, though live with the customer, was pending final approval. This has taken place post the year end and $0.46m of the debt has been received to date.

In addition to the $0.46m, just under $1.5m has been received since the year end to date, i.e. a total of $1.9m.

Contract assets

Contract assets are recognised relating to support and maintenance revenue and license fees as invoices are raised in arrears of the revenue recognition relating to the services being provided. In addition, contract assets include contract fulfilment assets relating to sales commission provisions, the cost of which is amortised over the life of the corresponding contract.

Short-term contract assets deriving from revenue (i.e. those which are expected to reverse in less than one year) decreased to $0.38m (2020: $0.46m), arising from one license contract signed in the year which had invoicing terms which differed significantly from the underlying performance obligations. Long-term contract assets deriving from revenue (i.e. those which are expected to reverse after more than one year) decreased to $0.23m (2020: $0.31m), reflecting the invoicing profile of various products and services, principally on PCS.

Fulfilment assets included in contract assets total $0.18m (2020: $0.15m) in respect of short-term assets (representing costs directly relating to certain contracts to be recognised in profit and loss in the next 12 months); and $0.38m (2020: $0.44m) in respect of long-term assets (representing costs directly relating to certain contracts to be recognised in profit and loss after one year). These assets largely reflect sales commissions first contracted in 2020.

Trade and other payables, provisions and contract liabilities

Trade and other payables

At the year end, short-term trade payables stood at $0.15m (2020: $0.81m), the reduction being due entirely to an exceptional amount due in respect of sales commissions payable at the end of 2020 which were paid in 2021. Other short-term payables of $0.45m (2020: $0.28m), were due principally to amounts due in respect of staff bonuses and the balance for sundry creditors.

Provisions

Under the Indian Payment of Gratuity Act 1972, employees i n the Group's Indian subsidiary with more than 5 years' service are eligible for the payment of a "gratuity" upon certain end of employment events - short-term provisions include amounts estimated in respect of such gratuity payments, as well as carried over leave payments and sundry expense provisions, in total $37,000 (2020: $79,000). The tax provision fell from $84,000 to $35,000 mainly due to an increase in the amount of tax deducted at source from our Indian subsidiary which reduced the year end tax creditor.

Long-term provisions of $0.20m (2020: $0.17m) relate solely to amounts estimated in respect of leave encashment and gratuity payments. Further details of such provisions are given in Note 26.

Contract liabilities

Contract liabilities represent customer payments received in advance of satisfying performance obligations, which are expected to be recognised as revenue in 2022 and beyond. Short-term contract liabilities remained broadly stable at $0.47m (2020: $0.50m) and long-term contract liabilities increased slightly to $0.28m (2020: $0.21m).

Statement of Cash Flows

Cash flow and financing

Cash generated by operations before tax payments amounted to $1.27m (2020: $2.60m), the reduction largely resulting from the effect of the trade receivables which were still outstanding at the year end referred to above and the payment of the commissions referred to in the note on creditors above.

In July we raised c. $4.3m net of expenses by way of an equity placing. This has supported the Group's expansion, both in terms of recruitment (in particular in sales), the repayment of debt (some $0.75m) and working capital generally.

The Group had closing gross cash of $3.3m (2020: $1.8m). Borrowings amounted to $0.75m (2020: $1.4m) excluding amounts relating to lease liabilities. These borrowings are to be repaid on an Equal Monthly Instalment ("EMI") basis over the next 2-5 years.

Summary

Our performance this year reflects the work done over the last few years in transitioning the Group towards long-term managed service contracts underpinned by a solid base of support revenue, and a more normal year of change request income. The Group starts the year with a material proportion of the expected total revenue for the year underpinned by recurring revenue already contracted and repeating revenue (i.e. change requests) under purchase orders. The Board therefore remains optimistic that the Group is on track to deliver a strong year of growth.

Customer concentration

The Group has two customers representing individually over 10% of revenue each and in aggregate approximately 38% of total revenue at $2.73m (2020: three customers, approximately 53% of total revenue at $2.14m). The two customers accounted for revenue of $1.63m and $1.10m (2020: $0.89m, $0.63m and $0.62m).

Remaining performance obligations

There are certain software support, professional service, maintenance and licences contracts that have been entered into for which both:

• the original contract period was greater than 12 months; and

• the Group's right to consideration does not correspond directly with performance.

The amount of revenue that will be recognised in future periods on these contracts when those remaining performance obligations will be satisfied is shown below.

	Year to 31 December
	2022	2023	2024-7
	$'000	$'000	$'000
Revenue expected to be recognised on software and service contracts	449	314	320

11  Share-based payments

A charge of $32,000 (net of amounts capitalised of $30,000) (2020: $32,000) has been recognised during the year for share-based payments over the vesting period. This share-based payment expense comprises the charge in the current period relating to the expensing of the fair value of (a) 1,323,500 options granted under the Plan (net of lapsed or forfeited options) and (b) the 33,000 options (net of lapses) issued at the time of the Company' IPO.

Movements in the number of share options outstanding and their related weighted average exercise prices are as follows:

	No. of options		Weighted average exercise price
	2021	2020	2021	2020
Outstanding at the beginning of the year	1,505,500	1,631,500	72.7p	72.7p

15  Earnings

Reported earnings per share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") amounts are calculated by dividing net profit or loss for the year attributable to owners of the Company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

The Group has one category of security potentially dilutive to ordinary shares in issue, being those share options granted to employees where the exercise price (plus the remaining expected charge to profit under IFRS 2) is less than the average price of the Company's ordinary shares during the period in issue. No dilution arose in the year as the exercise price was above the average share price for the year.

The following reflects the earnings and share data used in the basic earnings per share computations:

Year to 31 December	2021	2020
	$'000	$'000
Profit/(loss) attributable to equity holders of the parent:
Profit/(loss) attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent for basic earnings	(847)	(2,457)
Weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue	41,153,537	34,136,617
Basic earnings/(loss) per share attributable to shareholders	(2.1)¢	(7.2)¢

Adjusted earnings per share

Adjusted earnings per share is calculated as follows:

The Group recognises impairments under IFRS 9 for relevant classes of assets. The Group thus reviews the amount of expected credit loss associated with its trade receivables based on forward looking estimates that take into account current and forecast credit conditions as opposed to relying on past historical default rates. In the absence of any historic credit losses and the expectation of no specific losses in the foreseeable future, the Directors assess a hypothetical likely default amount by applying a percentage "probability of default" to the receivables balance, such probability being related to the underlying credit rating of the customer or country of origin. Furthermore, taking into account the time value of money when applied to contracts assets (which may unwind over a period of years following their initial recognition), a loss allowance for expected credit losses has been recorded as follows:

	2021	2020
	$'000	$'000
Loss allowance at 1 January	37	29
Increase in loss allowance	52	8
	_______	_______
Loss allowance at 31 December	89	37

The loss allowance is comprised as follows:

	$'000	$'000
On trade receivables	75	30
On contract assets	14	7
	_______	_______
Loss allowance at 31 December	89	37

The largest individual counterparty to a receivable included in trade and other receivables at 31 December 2021 was $1.14m (of which some $0.68m related to unbilled revenue) (2020: $0.56m). Based on invoiced receivables, the largest individual counterparty owed the Group $0.52m (2020: $0.20m). The increase in loss allowance is due almost entirely to two individually significant receivables balances (other than the largest) from customers located in a jurisdiction with a notionally higher risk of default, and the weighting of the largest within the loss allowance calculation. Other than these, the Group's customers are spread across a broad range of geographies, and approximately $1.5m has been received from customers since the reporting date.

Under the Indian Payment of Gratuity Act 1972, employees with more than 5 years' service are eligible for the payment of a "gratuity" upon certain end of employment events, including retirement, resignation, death and termination or redundancy. The calculation of the gratuity due is based on the last drawn salary and number of years of service. The potential liability arising from these requirements is calculated by third party actuaries based on employee profiles, their completed number of years in the organization, their age, salary and also on the probability of termination of employment, and a provision made accordingly.

Under the terms of their employment, employees are eligible to carry forward 30 "earned leaves" (EL) to the next calendar year. Any EL balance over and above this is paid in cash by March the following year, hence resulting in a long-term provision.

On 2 and 5 July the Company issued a further 8,375,000 2.5 pence Ordinary shares at a price of 40.0 pence per share by way of a placing to institutional and other investors. The Company incurred incremental costs totalling $333,000 in respect of the Placing. IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation requires the costs of issuing new shares to be charged against the share premium account. Management reviewed the incremental costs to identify those solely incurred in issuing new shares, those incurred in connection with the entire share capital, and those not associated with issuing new shares. All of the costs relating to the Placing were deemed to relate directly to the issue of new shares and thus resulted in a debit to share premium of $333,000.
