    Trading Update
    Sopheon plc, the international provider of software and services for complete Enterprise Innovation Management solutions, issues the following trading update for the six months to 30 June 2019.

    The Board expects first half revenues to be approx. $13.7m compared to $15.9m in 2018. As we have always stated, our licensing model has been predominantly perpetual and consequently the precise timing of deal closure plays a significant role in periodic revenue recognition. Our sales pipeline includes a large number of opportunities where we are strongly positioned and that we remain confident have a high probability of closing in the balance of the year.

    Since January, we have increased our sales pipeline value by 48 percent, and the number of opportunities above $500,000 in deal value by 29 percent. We believe this is a result of executing on the strategic growth initiatives communicated in our past two annual reports, to drive higher growth and profit over time. The delay to some of these licences has been reflected in profitability for the first half. EBITDA for the first half is expected to be approximately $2m (2018: $4.1m).

    Outlook

    Current revenue visibility for the full year stands above $24m. With an unprecedented volume of opportunities in the sales funnel, we anticipate rising deal flow and traction through the balance of the year. An increasing proportion of these opportunities are opting for a multi-year, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model rather than perpetual. This change in procurement preference to a rental rather than purchase model is coming sooner than we expected, but is in line with the Group's long term strategy. A greater number of customers in the pipeline opting for SaaS licenses will, in the near term, have the impact of reducing revenue in exchange for increasing recurring revenue in future periods, and consequently a greater lifetime revenue from each customer.

    Accordingly, the Board believes that revenue for the full year will be at similar levels to last year. To reiterate, the Board believes this shift reflects a change to procurement behavior and the associated revenue recognition, rather than a change in expected commercial momentum. Our strategic shift to a SaaS model will drive recurring revenue and shareholder value, and the Board remains confident that Sopheon is well positioned to deliver on the long term opportunity.

    With net cash of $18.7m at 30 June 2019 compared to $16.7m at 31 December, the balance sheet remains strong and highlights the Company’s ability to turn profits into cash.

    Further details of the results for the six months to 30 June 2019 will be provided in our interim financial report, scheduled for release on 22 August 2019. Expectations noted above are subject to completion of the period-end financial close and auditor review processes.

    Lezen die mee hier ofzo? :))

    Geen kwade opzet in de timing van Progressive Research zo lijkt het dus; maar hier kan Sopheon wel problemen mee krijgen; want Progressive Research kende de cijfers uit dit bericht klaarblijkelijk eerder al; immers deze komen exact overeen met die in hun bericht. Dat kan natuurlijk niet. Publicatie dient te allen tijde publiek te gebeuren zodat iedereen tegelijk over dezelfde informatie beschikt.

    Achteraf kijk je een koe....etc.
    Maar ik las ook in het bericht van gisteren dat saas sneller groeit en hogere marges geeft.

    Dat klopt Veni maar waarom is dan de verwachting binnen 6 weken zo veel anders? Gaan de overeenkomsten niet zo snel als ze hadden gehoopt? Dit komt uit de agm statement:
    We expect this to rise sharply through the summer. In previous years we have typically had a stronger second half and fourth quarter in particular, and we expect 2019 to follow this pattern.

    Let vooral op het woordje sharply.

    Visible is van 23 naar 24 miljoen gestegen in sinds 13 juni. Ze moeten nog veel doen om gelijke omzet te halen als vorig jaar.

    True; Het wordt nu ook op het 'SaaS effect' gegooid maar dan zou het aantal klanten dus alsnog hard moeten zijn gegroeid. Dan komt alleen de omzet volgens een andere timeline binnen. Helaas zijn over aantal klanten geen concrete cijfers gegeven in de laatste 2 updates. Ik heb ze niet gezien althans.
