Integrating the Danish business intelligence company Bridgeconsulting A/S
(current Innofactor A/S), which was acquired in summer 2012, as part of
Innofactor has gone as planned and on the last quarter, the company managed to
exceed the goals set for it. Also the personnel satisfaction in the company has
remained on a very high level. Microsoft Denmark selected Innofactor A/S as the
Business Intelligence partner of the year in Denmark. Innofactor A/S provides a
good basis for expanding business in Denmark.
Innofactor's business in 2013 has started as expected and Innofactor sees the
growth in Microsoft-based software market and its own outlook as positive in
2013.
Innofactor continues to actively seek potential strategic partnerships in
Finland, Denmark and other Nordic Countries. The group will seek growth, which
can be organic or based on mergers or acquisitions.
Market outlook and business environment
Due to the long-standing uncertainties in economic situation, it is challenging
to make a reliable estimate on the development of the IT market in the near
future. According to research companies monitoring the IT market, the IT
service markets grew globally about 1-2 percent in 2012 and they are expected
to grow about 3-5 percent in 2013. The growth of software market in 2012-2013
is estimated to be about one percentage point faster, that is, 4-6 percent in
2013.
The IT market is experiencing a clear turning point. One of the major trends is
the consumerization of information technology: an increasingly larger share of
the IT purchases made by companies is based on the requirements of individuals,
that is, the consumer market. Company and corporate clients tend to purchase
software that can be used on phones, tablets and computers. Another trend is
the ability of public clouds to offer software in a scalable and global form to
a wide range of end users and for all devices, including mobile phones.
Innofactor has made a strategic choice by focusing on solutions that use
Microsoft technology. Innofactor believes that Microsoft is a strong player in
the IT market change: it holds the leading position in the business software
market and invests heavily in mobile devices.
Innofactor has selected as its application areas those areas where Microsoft's
growth and, correspondingly, its partners' growth has exceeded manifold the
growth of general global IT service and software markets. For example, in 2012,
Microsoft repeatedly reported annual growth figures of over 30 percent in the
sales of Dynamics CRM solutions and Microsoft SQL Server Premium servers (used
in Microsoft-based BI solutions) and annual growth figures of over 10 percent
in the sales of SharePoint, Lync and Exchange solutions. The above-mentioned
Microsoft solution areas, which are growing significantly faster than other IT
markets, form a significant part of Innofactor's business operations.
Additionally, the publishing of the Windows 8 operating system in October 2012,
is significant for the Microsoft ecosystem and it is believed to strengthen
Microsoft's competitiveness within Innofactor's clientele.
The company feels that for companies like Innofactor, which is stronglycommitted to Microsoft, this development creates growing global markets in the
long term both as a traditional system integrator locally in the Nordic
Countries and as a provider of cloud and mobile solutions globally.
As the companies committing strongly to Microsoft are typically small,
Innofactor believes that they are likely to be consolidating into larger units,
and this will offer Innofactor expansion opportunities.
Future outlook
Innofactor's net sales in 2013 are expected to be about EUR 24 million (2012:
EUR 18,818 thousand). Operating profit before depreciation and amortization
(EBITDA) in 2013 is expected to be about EUR 2 million (2012: EUR 1,215
thousand).
Board of Directors' proposal on the dividend
Innofactor is a growing company and intends to use its operating profit on
actions promoting growth, for example, on realizing mergers. Innofactor has
defined a dividend distribution policy according to which the aim of the Board
of Directors is to provide an opportunity for the shareholders to distribute,
from the part of the operating profit before depreciation and amortization
(EBITDA) that exceeds 10 percent, the maximum dividend allowed by the state of
the business. For 2012, the EBITDA was under 10 percent. In making the proposal
on the dividend, the Board of Directors takes into account the company's
financial situation, profitability and near-term outlook.
At the end of the financial period of 2012, the distributable assets of the
group's parent company were EUR 28,312,743.79.
The Board of Directors proposes that Innofactor Plc should not pay any dividend
for the financial period of 2012.
