Dataproces' CEO Michael Binderup says:

The strong focus on Dataproces' earnings with the desire for profitable growth for own money has strengthened Dataproces' position. Our targeted work to focus the company's strategy and business operations led in November to our decision to phase out our product, REVIEW. The solution does not belong to our core area, which is the optimization of finances and processes linked to financial management in the municipalities. 

In the first half of the financial year, our positive development in our focus areas has continued. Our solutions and advice are deeply rooted in the Danish municipalities, and customers' interest in our products and services remains very high. We greatly value our trusting and long-term relationships with our customers. We see our relationship with customers as a partnership, where both parties contribute to getting the best out of the collaboration.

We have realized an increase in our ARR of 49% compared to the same time last year, so that our total ARR per 31 October 2024 amounts to DKK 21.0 million. In the first half of the financial year, we realized a total turnover within SaaS and Data Analysis of DKK 19.3 million., which is 7.2 million DKK better than in the same period last financial year - an increase of 60%, where our data analyzes in particular have contributed to the great development. This, combined with our continued focus on cost management, has also led to an increase in our EBITDA of DKK 8.4 million. and in our EBIT of DKK 5.7 million. compared to the same time last financial year. 

We are very pleased with the development that Dataproces is in, and we maintain the expectations for the year, as guided in connection with our upward adjustment of guidance in company announcement no. 19/2024.
