("Osirium" or the "Group")
Half Year Trading Update
Strong ARR growth reflecting customer demand
Osirium Technologies plc (AIM: OSI), a leading vendor of
cloud-based cybersecurity and IT automation software, announces an
update on trading for the six months ended 30 June 2023.
Trading
The Board is pleased to report that Osirium's annual recurring
revenue ("ARR") has increased by 34% over the 12 months to 30 June
2023 to GBP2.16 million (30 June 2022 ARR: GBP1.61 million) and by
20% since the start of the year (December 2022 ARR: GBP1.8
million).
Bookings for the period are expected to be at least GBP1.22
million (H1 2022: GBP1.18 million) and revenue is expected to be no
less than GBP1.1 million (H1 2022: GBP0.9 million), representing a
4% and 18% increase on H1 2022 respectively. Deferred revenue at 30
June 2023 was GBP2.9 million (30 June 2022: GBP1.9 million).
Osirium has continued to grow within its target sectors in the
first half, with over 20 new customers signed so far in the year.
This includes several contract wins in the UK healthcare sector,
where the Group has established a reputation as a key provider of
privileged security. This reputation contributes to Osirium's
pipeline via referrals to prospective customers and direct
approaches from resellers.
ARR growth was driven by new customer wins and a high rate of
renewals. A significant proportion of Osirium's customer base
increased their license capacity or expanded their range of
products during the period, underlining the strength of the Group's
land and expand strategy.
Following receipt of the Group's research and development tax
credit, as announced on 13 June 2023, the Company's cash balance as
at 30 June 2023 was GBP0.22 million, with short-term debtors of
GBP0.40 million. The previously announced cost savings measures
identified by the Group in Q4 FY22 have been fully implemented
during the period, and the Board continues to keep all costs under
review with a view to reducing the timeframe by which the Group
will become cash flow break-even.
The strength of Osirium's offering is reflected in its speed and
simplicity of implementation and tailored user experience.
Reflecting this, the Group is pleased to announce it has recently
been named by independent researchers, SoftwareReviews, as a
'flagship leader' in Privileged Access Management. The report
ranked Osirium number one for vendor support, while also being 'top
rated' in 14 other categories including usability and
intuitiveness, ease of implementation, and ease of customisation.
The report, assessing 14 PAM providers, awarded Osirium a Gold
Medal for its overall score of 8.7/10, outperforming other major
players within privileged security(1) .
Outlook
The Group is pleased to report a strong start to H2 2023, with a
healthy pipeline underlined by a growing pool of prospective new
customers, as well as expected customer renewals, and contract
expansions and upsells which are expected to contribute to an
increase in ARR at FY23.
Notwithstanding the positive trading momentum in the first half
of the year, the Directors anticipate that the Company will be
required to raise additional capital before the end of the year and
are exploring all options in this regard. The Company has also
identified additional cost saving measures which are being
implemented.
The Group expects to announce its interim results in September
2023.
