Trading Update

PROACTIS Holdings PLC, the global Spend Control and eProcurement solution provider, is pleased to update the market on trading for the year ended 31 July 2015.

The Group confirms that results are expected to be in line with expectations, with revenues increasing by c.69% to approximately GBP17.2m (2014: GBP10.2m) and adjusted(1) EBITDA increasing by c.130% to approximately GBP4.6m (2014: GBP2.0m). The Group signed 39 new name deals during the year (2014: 38) and, as with the prior six months, initial contract values, upgrade business, order book and pipeline for further new deals remain very encouraging.

The Group has completed the integration of its three acquisitions; EGS Group Limited, Intesource Inc. and Intelligent Capture Limited and all are performing well in their first full year within the Group. The acquired software and service offerings provide a rich cross-selling opportunity for forthcoming periods. The Group continues to assess further M&A opportunities and has a healthy pipeline.

In addition, the Group is progressing its strategy to provide value added services to its customers' suppliers; notably an electronic trading platform, invoice status visibility and an accelerated payment facility. The development of this technology has all been completed during the year and the Group is working closely with a small group of customers on early adoption programmes.

The Group intends to release its preliminary results on 13 October 2015.

Note 1: Adjusted for non-recurring administrative expenses and share based payment charges.

Rod Jones, Chief Executive commented:

"I am delighted to be able to report the substantial progress over the past six months, both operationally and financially. The Group's scale and growth rate have been transformed during 2015 through both its organic growth and its three acquisitions, with profitability increasing substantially. The levels of new deal intake and renewal rates remaining strong illustrating that our solutions and services remain attractive in the marketplace.

"In addition, the Group remains committed to its programme of delivering value added services to its customers' suppliers and I look forward to being able to report commercial progress on this in the near future."
