Interim Results
i-nexus Global plc (AIM: INX), a leading provider of cloud-based Strategy
software solutions designed for the Global 5000, today provides its unaudited
results for the 6 months ended 31 March 2023.
Financial Highlights
· Monthly Recurring Revenue ('MRR') increased 25% year-on-year to
£281k and 12% since the start of the period (30 September 2022: £250k, 31
March 2022: £225k) driven by a further five new business wins and the
expansion of several existing customer relationships; equivalent Underlying
MRR(1) was £275k (30 September 2022: £250k, 31 March 2022: £230k)
· Total revenue, 93% of which is recurring, increased by 9% to £1,673k
(H1 2022: £1,540k) through the new business and expansion successes since the
start of FY22
· Net retention(2) in the period improved to 103% (H1 2022: 95%),
highlighting both the increasing strength of our client relationships and
quality of our product
· A select number of strategic investments during the second half of
2022, considered fundamental to the Group realising the market opportunity,
has led to Adjusted EBITDA(3) loss increasing to £358k (H1 2022: £138k)
· Loss after tax for the period of £491k (H1 2022: £283k) as a result
of the aforementioned strategic investments
· Cash and cash equivalents at the period end improved to £147k (30
September 2022: £99k), with the Group continuing with its plan of deferring
the placement of additional investment beyond 2022 levels until such time that
revenue growth delivers a position of at least Adjusted EBITDA breakeven
· Trade receivables (net) have increased to £1,127k due to the timing
of receipt of annual licence fee invoices issued (31 March 2022: £702k)
· The growth in the Group's MRR resulted in deferred revenue increasing
to £1,927k at 31 March 2023 (31 March 2022: £1,655k). The Group's cash
collection disciplines remain strong with DSO (debtor days) at 31 March 2023
of 60 (31 March 2022: 70)
Operational Highlights and Outlook
· Three material account expansions, two of which were logos signed in
2022, highlighting the speed of value being derived from the product alongside
the increased market need for digitalised strategy solutions
· The delivery of fourteen new logos in the last 18 months has
highlighted clear, common areas where we can continue to make improvements and
where we are focusing our development activities. These improvements will
benefit all existing customers, whilst supporting increased conversion in new
business
· On track to deliver improved double-digit net MRR growth in FY23,
capitalising on the increased opportunities within our base and strong
prospect pipeline
Simon Crowther, Chief Executive, of i-nexus Global plc, commented:

offering, to play a leadership role in this maturing market and the management
team are focused on delivering a year of growth, alongside the continued
management of our cash resources."

About i-nexus Global plc
i-nexus Global plc ("i-nexus") helps organisations achieve their goals.
Whether executing a strategy, driving operational excellence and continuous
performance improvement, or coordinating portfolios and programs to transform
results, i-nexus strategy software underpins success.
Today, we support organisations in managing over 200,000 strategic programmes
around the world.
i-nexus transforms how organisations plan, execute, and track goals. We
inspire the confidence to leave behind the spreadsheets, presentations and
reports those organisations rely on, replacing it with a cloud-based,
collaborative solution.
Throughout this announcement:
(1) Underlying MRR excludes MRR movements related to IFRS adjustments and
Foreign Exchange variances, these items are included within the Reported MRR
value.
(2) Net Retention is measured by the total of on-going MRR at the period-end
from clients in place at the start of the period as a percentage of the
opening MRR from those clients.
(3) Adjusted EBITDA excludes the impact of any impairment, loss on disposal
of assets, share based payment expenses and non-underlying items
Overview
i-nexus is pleased to report on a period of encouraging progress for the
business, with the continued delivery of new business wins being well
supported by the expansion opportunities secured within our client base.
These sales successes, combined with the continued improvement in net revenue
retention levels, resulted in the Group delivering double-digit MRR growth in
the period whilst continuing to operate a strong sales pipeline, with multiple
businesses in active dialogue or trials.
This success is underpinned by the decision at the start of 2022 to revise our
Go-to-Market strategy, shifting our marketing focus to a content-led strategy
and deliberately securing smaller initial deals, servicing limited business
areas or teams within the customer where demonstration of value would lead to
significant expansion opportunities.
In order to ensure the business is best placed to realise the growing market
opportunity, during the first half of the year the Group launched several
strategic initiatives which focused on streamlining the onboarding process,
ensuring we continue to drive our value proposition and best practice into our
sales discussions and simplification of our product demonstrations,
particularly around our key differentiator: our ability to deliver Hoshin
Kanri methodology.
Our marketing engine is performing well, with the strength of the pipeline
corresponding well to the level of investment. During the second quarter, the
business took the strategic decision to reduce marketing expenditure, choosing
instead to increase investment in other areas of the team, to ensure we have
the ability to continue to deliver for our growing customer base.
Positive progress with partners has been achieved in the period, with the
Group securing approximately three new consulting partner leads per month. The
business has now started to focus on re-engaging in its partner program,
believing they have considerable potential to increase our sales pipeline. The
Board is actively considering ways to capitalise on this interest.
Trading
Since the start of the current financial year, the Company has secured five
new logos (H1 2022: 5), each with expansion potential, building on the record
nine new logos signed in the prior year. These successes include a large tier
1 automotive manufacturer, secured via our UK reseller, who successfully
demonstrated the value of a rigorous and systematic approach to strategy.
A key highlight for the business during the first half of the year is that a
number of these logos are already showing the potential for either stepped
growth or are considering business wide rollouts, in addition to the three
material expansions being secured in H1. This is a testament to the value the
deployment team are demonstrating.
The Group renewed well over 90% of its customers, a considerable improvement
on the prior year period, reflecting the rigour and routine that has been
brought to the review of accounts with our customer stakeholders, and the
release of enterprise software budgets following the freeze experienced during
Covid times.
These new logo wins and account expansions, alongside the continued
improvement in net revenue retention levels, delivered year-on-year growth in
MRR of 25% to £281k MRR and 12% since the start of the period (30 September
2022: £250k, 31 March 2022: £225k).
Market Opportunity
All businesses set goals, plan how to deliver them and track performance. The
challenge is whether they can do this at pace, with insight and high levels of
visibility across their complex ecosystems where i-nexus' software delivers
considerable value. Our software category - Strategy Execution Management
('SEM') - continues to evolve and gain momentum as companies accelerate
digitalising mission-critical processes in this post-pandemic world. The Group
is beginning to see increased demand from customers looking to digitalise
strategy execution. Post-Covid traditional analogue methods have proven
ineffective for remote working. These customers acknowledge market disruption
and seek tools that enable responsiveness to changing conditions.
The business is seeing two clear customer priorities around improving the
strategic planning process (and in particular, the adoption of Hoshin Kanri)
and connecting the planning process with the delivery engine: a traditional
project management office or a new strategy realisation office driving
organisation alignment.
Accompanying this is an increased level of sophistication in our market, with
prospects frequently now coming to us with very well thought through
capability requirements, having pre-evaluated i-nexus against the competition
on a matrix of criteria. We continue to see that i-nexus has two clear
advantages in strategy execution against Strategy Portfolio Management ('SPM')
vendors: powerful strategic planning and performance management capabilities
that complement portfolio management features, plus, i-nexus' customers
benefit from insight gained from over fifteen years of market experience in
strategy execution.
People
The Board wishes to thank its employees for the excellent support and
commitment they are providing to the business and to our clients, highlighted
by the successes achieved. The results are even more impressive when taking
into account the size of the team. Each person has gone above and beyond to
grow sales momentum, develop our products and deepen customer relationships.
Strategic focus for H2
1. To accelerate the landing of new logos - The business has managed to
reduce friction in buying i-nexus through a more streamlined contracting
process whilst enhancing the trial experience as planned. The Group is seeing
increased evidence of trials advancing to where we feel confident in marketing
them more widely and we are also witnessing early signs of shorter buying
cycles.
2. Prove our ability to expand within accounts - A key highlight during the
first half of the year was the delivery of three material expansions, two of
which were logos secured in 2022. With a further five new logos signed in the
period, proving the land and expand strategy is repeatable across both these
and the other clients secured in 2022 is a key focus for the Group. In order
to fully realise this opportunity, the business launched an updated set of
value measures and increased its levels of customer interaction through
marketing initiatives and forums.
3. Improve the customer experience within our Workbench product - The Group
continues to focus on the challenges customers face in the process of strategy
execution rather than outputs for insight. The delivery of the fourteen new
logos secured in the last 18 months has highlighted clear, common areas where
we can continue to make improvements and where we are focusing our development
activities. These improvements will benefit all existing customers, whilst
supporting increased conversion in new business. A process of defining best
practice Strategy process and mapping it to the product is also underway.
We believe that through continued focus on these programs, we will drive the
success of the business.
Outlook
Following the growth in MRR achieved in H1 and our careful management of the
impacts of cost inflation on the business, we continue to have clear
visibility of our cash runway. The growing interest in strategy software, the
relaxation of enterprise software budgets, the enhancements we have made to
our products and our increased sales and marketing skills, all combine to
provide us with confidence in our outlook.
The market for i-nexus software continues to expand, with an increasingly
remote or hybrid workforce across multiple industries driving the need for
scalable, robust, digital strategy execution tools. We continue to add
steadily to our customer base and have considerably improved the retention and
expansion rate of our customers.
The Board is confident i-nexus is well positioned, with a differentiated
offering, to play a leadership role in this maturing market and the management
team are focused on delivering a year of growth. Alongside the continued
management of our cash resources, the Board continues to consider the
available options at its disposal in order to strengthen the Group's cash
position.
Financial Performance
Revenue
Licence revenues
i-nexus' Monthly Recurring Revenue ('MRR') at 31 March 2023 totalled £281k
(30 September 2022: £250k, 31 March 2022: £225k) representing overall
year-on-year growth of 25% and growth of 12% since the start of the period as
the business secured five new logos (H1 2022: five), building on the record
nine secured in FY22, alongside material expansions in three accounts (H1
2022: two).
Highlighting both the increasing strength of our client relationships and
quality of our product, net retention (measured by the total value of on-going
MRR at the period-end from clients in place at the start of the period as a
percentage of the opening MRR from those clients) in the period grew to 103%
(H1 2022: 95%).
As predicted, licence revenues recognised in H1 2023 increased by 10% to
£1,555k (H1 2022: £1,416k), with the new business and account expansion
successes since the start of 2022 expected to drive further increases during
the second half of the year. These revenues now represent 93% of overall
revenue (H1 2022: 92%).
Services revenues
Revenue from associated professional services was in line with prior period
levels at £118k (H1 2022: £124k).
Gross Margin
Gross Margin in the period remained stable at 77% (H1 2022: 77%) with the
increase in revenue driving the uplift from £1,188k to £1,293k.
Reported Gross Margin is the combined gross margin over both recurring
software subscriptions and professional services.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA excluding the impact of impairment, loss on disposal
of assets, share-based payments and non-underlying items) totalled a loss of
£358k for the period (H2 2022: loss of £414k, H1 2022: loss of £138k), with
the increase in overhead costs of £350k against H1 2022 levels reflecting the
Board's decision during the second half of 2022 to accelerate a select number
of investments both in its existing employee base to preserve retention and in
additional resource needed for operational delivery. The strengthening of
the team was considered fundamental to the Group realising the market
opportunity and delivering on the next stage of its growth strategy, a
strategy which has started to play out during H1.
As mentioned in the FY22 Annual Report, there remains no plans to make further
investments until such time as revenue growth is delivering a positive
Adjusted EBITDA.
Depreciation, amortisation and impairment
Total costs in respect of depreciation, amortisation, and impairment were
£106k (H1 2022: £89k). With the business having low capital expenditure
requirements, the value is principally made up of amortisation on intangible
assets, being capitalised development costs (£99k, H1 2022: £59k).
These costs are reflective of the continual evolution of the market in which
the Group operates, the needs of its customers, both present and prospective,
and the Group's agile approach to continually developing and improving its
offering.
Non-underlying items
Non-underlying items totalling £11k in H1 2023 comprise redundancy costs. No
such costs were incurred in the year ended 30 September 2022.
Statutory results
The Group reported a loss before taxation for the six month period of £596k
(H2 2022: £762k, H1 2022: £343k).
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents at 31 March 2023 improved to £147k (30 September
2022: £99k, 31 March 2022: £694k).
Careful cash management will continue to be a priority focus for the Board. As
previously outlined, there are currently no plans to increase the existing
cost base in the second half of 2023 until such time as revenue growth
delivers a position of at least Adjusted EBITDA breakeven.
The Group prepares budgets, cashflow forecasts and undertakes scenario
planning to ensure that the Group can meet its liabilities as they fall due.
The Board's assessment in relation to going concern is included in note 2 of
this report.
Balance sheet
Trade receivables (net) have increased to £1,127k at 31 March 2023 due to the
timing of receipt of annual licence fee invoices issued (31 March 2022:
£702k). This amount is expected to be received in line with the Group's DSO.
The growth in the Group's MRR resulted in deferred revenue increasing to
£1,927k at 31 March 2023 (31 March 2022: £1,655k). The Group's cash
collection disciplines remain strong with DSO (debtor days) at 31 March 2023
of 60 (31 March 2022: 70).
Principal risks and uncertainties
The Group's principal risks and uncertainties are set out in note 7 of this
report.

ended 31 March 2023 have not been audited or reviewed by the auditors. The
interims have been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency
Rules of the Financial Services Authority and with IAS 34, 'interim financial
reporting'. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended
30 September 2022, which have been prepared in accordance with UK adopted
international accounting standards and company law. The interim condensed
consolidated financial information has been prepared on a going concern basis
and is presented in Sterling to the nearest £1.
After reviewing the Group's forecasts and projections, the Directors have a
reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in
operational existence for the foreseeable future, being a period of at least
twelve months from the date of approval of these interim financial statements.
A scenario testing exercise, in which the Directors prepared detailed cash
flow forecasts for the period covered by the going concern forecast, was
performed. The forecasts take into account the Directors' views of current and
future economic conditions that are expected to prevail over the period
including assumptions regarding the sales pipeline, future revenues and costs
with various scenarios which reflect growth plans, opportunities and risks.
Alongside management's base case forecast, the Group prepared an extreme
downside scenario. Under this extreme scenario, the Group has given
consideration to the potential actions available to management to mitigate the
impact of these sensitivities, in particular the discretionary nature of costs
incurred by the Group, in order to ensure the continued availability of funds.
Across both this scenario and those scenarios detailed above, the business had
sufficient working capital headroom to continue to operate.
Financial performance in the next 12 months is not expected to be materially
impacted from current period levels due to the long-range revenue visibility
achieved through the recurring revenue business model. These recurring
revenues, representing 90% of total revenue, are considered resilient given
the majority are on multiyear terms. In each scenario, the Board also assumed
that the Group did not have access to any further external funding.
3. Accounting policies
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous
financial statements, except in respect of taxes on income which, in the
interim periods, are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to
expected total annual performance. New and amended standards and
interpretations need to be adopted in the first interim financial statements
issued after their effective date. There are no new IFRSs or IFRICs that are
effective for the first time for this interim period that would be expected to
have a material impact on the financial statements.
4. Estimates
The preparation of 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 differ from these estimates. In preparing
these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant
judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and
the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied
to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2022,
with the exception of changes in estimates that are required in determining
the provision for income taxes.
5. Segmental reporting
The Group has one single business segment and therefore all revenue is derived
from the rendering of services as stated in the principal activity. The Group
operates in six geographical segments, as set out below. This is consistent
with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker.
The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating
resources and assessing performance, has been identified as the management
team comprising the executive directors who make strategic decisions.
