reports and audit reports / limited reviews
Trondheim, November 19, 2021 - Ørn Software Holding AS today reported its
results for the third quarter 2021, showing NOK 214.2 million in annual
recurring revenue (ARR), a growth of 197 percent year-on-year. Operating revenue
in the third quarter was NOK 59.5 million, 208 percent higher than in the same
period last year. Adjusted EBITDA increased with 269 percent to NOK 18.2
million, implying an EBITDA margin of 30.7 percent. Reported EBITDA was NOK 12.5
million, affected by 5.8 million in special items related to acquisitions.
"The third quarter of 2021 was another strong quarter for Ørn Software. With our
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) based business model, annual recurring revenue
(ARR) is an essential performance indicator, and the growth of close to 200
percent is driven by successful execution of our aggressive expansion strategy
driven by both active M&A and organic growth. During the third quarter we closed
the acquisition of Rapal, which is the largest acquisition in Ørn's history.
Rapal represents a highly attractive addition to our portfolio, as well as our
first step into the Finnish market." said CEO of Ørn Software Sten-Roger
Karlsen.
Ørn is continuing to strengthen its position as a leading Nordic
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) company and is supporting a wide range of
industries with value creation through a comprehensive suite of best-of-breed
worksite management software. In Q3 2021 year-on-year organic growth in ARR was
12.2 percent.
"We are highly committed to continuing the growth story and delivering on our
long-term targets. The target is to grow ARR organically to NOK 430 million, and
to reach EBITDA margin above 40 percent by the end of 2025. Continued focus on
value-creating M&A is a high priority. At any given time, we are considering
multiple acquisitions in the Nordics, and we believe there is significant room
for growth. The Nordic market is estimated at NOK 12 billion, of which only
around NOK 2.6 billion is currently being served. Over time, we will seek to
expand beyond the Nordics. Our ambition is to be recognized as a dominant
European SaaS company with best-of-breed solutions for worksite management."
said Sten-Roger Karlsen.
Ørn Software's reported Net result in Q3 2021 was negative with 19.9 million
(-0.1 million in Q3 2020). This was affected negatively by interest expenses
related to increased net debt and by NOK 18.5 million of increased depreciations
and amortizations related to acquisitions, according to NGAAP.
