Interim Results for the 6 months ended 30 September 2024

Revenue

ActiveOps' ARR at 30 September 2024 totalled £26.15m (30 September 2023: £23.73m), representing year-on-year growth of 10%. The successful launch of ControliQ Series 3 in September 2023 has bolstered the ARR growth in the first half of the year with upsell to multiple customers, compounded by new customer wins. This strong upsell performance is anticipated to continue in the second half of the year, during which a high proportion of renewals take place. On a constant currency basis, the ARR growth exceeded 12%. Total revenue for the Group at £14.32m (H1 FY24: £13.06m) is 10% ahead of the same period last year, with recurring software and subscription revenues increasing by 11% to £12.96m (H1 FY24: £11.72m) on a reported basis. Training and Implementation ('T&I') revenue at £1.36m (H1 FY24: £1.34m) was in-line with the prior year.

Margins and operating profit

Gross profit margins have remained in line with prior year at 84% (H1 FY24: 84%). Software and Subscription margins marginally increased to 88% (H1 FY24: 87%), due to prudent cost management. Operating expenses (excluding share-based payments, depreciation and amortisation) increased by 7% to £10.92m (H1 FY24: £10.17m). This is primarily due to the investment in our global sales operation. Adjusted EBITDA increased to £1.04m (H1 FY24: £0.79m), reflecting revenue growth and good cost control.

Statutory Results

The Group reported a profit before tax for the period of £0.47m (H1 FY24: £0.10m).

Earnings per Share

Basic Earnings per Share for continuing operations was a profit of 0.52p (H1 FY42: loss of 0.14p).

Cash flow

As is typical for the business, cash flow from operations in the first half of the year was negative £4.32m (H1 FY24: (£5.35m)). The negative cashflow position in H1 is attributable to the phasing of renewals over the year, and the timing of invoices raised. A significant level of renewals take place in the second half of the year and the timing of payments of annual in advance bills significantly impacts the cash position at 30 September 2024.

Balance Sheet

The Group has maintained a strong balance sheet position with cash and cash investments of £13.44m (H1 FY24: £9.90m) and net assets of £9.29m (FY24: £8.80m).

Current Trading and Outlook

The second half has begun well, with the signing of two new engagements, with a multinational BPO and a well-known global healthcare company, which is also the first customer to contract for ControliQ Series 4. Both engagements have significant expansion potential given the size of the organisations. Whilst the reduction within one customer will impact exit ARR at the year end, we see a range of expansion opportunities elsewhere and the business continues to trade in line with full year expectations. Looking ahead, we are confident the investment into our sales team, and the growing AI capabilities of our platform, provide us with a fantastic springboard for growth in FY26 and beyond.

Agentic Workflows: Cornered the debate

There was among the panelist a ‘we are at the beginning’ consensus. There was a positive view on AIs opportunity to unlock more creativity and free-up staff from the mundane, i.e. the Co-Pilot principle as work is dominated by repetitive language tasks. Yet after a year of AI pitches the VCs are battle-hardened, and now need evidenced-based ROI. The conversation led to the UK being ‘better’ at the AI application layer, rather than tools or infrastructure. We have supported the idea of RAG-AI whereby vertically-focused companies create ROI (our list is Relx: for Legal, Government, science and medical vertical markets analytics; Pearson: Ed-tech; LSE: Capital markets; Capita: Government Services; Moneysupermarket.com: Personal finance; S4Capital: Adtech; Trustpilot: C2C concierge, and Experian: Fintech) but we confess that we have been disappointed by their intent/adoption this year.

In the intervening period traditional Enterprise and SaaS companies have been ‘AI-ifying/washing’ their products. The general criticism is that they are “wrappers” around third-party AI models, and do not add enough incremental value and are easily copied. However one of the more interesting developments that has gained traction is the notion of agentic workflows.

Agentic Workflow is a new way of interacting with and completing tasks using LLMs. These are AI agents who perform tasks in a dynamic and iterative manner. As such they differ from the approach where the agent performs a specific task on pre-defined rules. By contrast, agentic AI is autonomous agents that can perform tasks, make decisions, and interact with their environments independently and can set goals, plan, and learn. These are in development at ‘classic’ workflow software companies, vertical market SaaS companies and IT Professional Services firms. The goal is to use AI to automate workflows which are impossible, too complex or too expensive to achieve by people.

We remind institutional investors of UiPath (below), but also ActiveOps also adding greater automation, and dare we say ‘agency’, to its workflows with an opportunity to not just mimic existing process flows, but to doing things that we are not doing at the moment. Agentic workflows are at the start of a large debate (which we will save for later) which, for us, illustrates; (i) the early nature of the AI market and, (ii) for investors that the AI market is larger than the hardware companies(the infrastructure) and with that comes greater appreciation of the wider AI ecosystem.

Hi Measureguy,
We find out today that it is BGF (Pershing) which bought into AOM. Good to see that it was taken off another institution at a good price. I think it's actually Calculus Capital, a PE, that offloaded as they had ~4.27m (~5.9%) of AOM. But Schroders were also reducing albeit they have less shares. We'll find out soon I'm sure.

Looking forward to trading updates/results. FCs are for strong FY25 profitability numbers

Looks like a large trade this morning - 4,232,422 shares sold @131.934p and then bought @132.0p at circa 10.30 this morning. Assume that the sale is by Canaccord Genuity. No impact on the share price but as this constitutes just under 6% of the issued shares there should be an RNS in due course.

I’ve got quite a few as well. The P/e ratio is alway bonkers when breaking into profit - the test is whether forecasts are realistic.

I guess thats where the opportunity lies. If people look and dismiss it on current valuation grounds and the gearing works out, they’ll wonder why the share price kept rising.

The level of ARR is sort of like an annuity for a business. Its what Amazon are constantly trying to do by telling us that Prime is some sort of exclusive benefit when a few million people subscribe. Its all SaaS, although I’d rather it works for AOM than for the tax-avoiding parasites.

Thanks 18BT - The concern over valuation is only because they didn't check what the forecasts for FY25 & FY26 were BEFORE the results came out.

Brokers have increased significantly the profitability forecasts (EBITDA, EBIT, PBT, EPS) for the next 2 years after the results announcement. They had 2 brokers and now a 3rd has joined them.

Operational leverage will kick in now and expect margin expansion too. The real measure is the ARR which should continue to grow 10-20%.

I put my money where my mouth is and bought AOM as declared on X. It is currently just over 7% of my portfolio. The senior management team here is one to back IMO.

· Exciting product roadmap, including release in FY25 of ControliQ Series 4, incorporating further AI and Machine Learning features

· Results of the prior period investment in product development and marketing give the Board confidence to make disciplined and focused investment in the global sales operation in the coming year to look to accelerate organic growth rate

ActiveOps CEO, Richard Jeffery commented: "As we look back on FY24, and consider the way ahead, we do so with an increased sense of confidence. The investments into our product and marketing capabilities are delivering demonstrable returns, particularly in terms of strong expansion with existing customers and high retention rates. The ability of our products to blend AI and human intelligence with information drawn from other applications to deliver powerful insights is resonating more than ever. The strength of our balance sheet and growth in profitability means we are now well placed to invest into our global sales operation to replicate our success on a wider basis, aiming to drive further growth across all our key markets."
