Danish SaaS company Loyal Solutions delivers 32%  growth in Annual Recurring Revenue "ARR" in the second half year (1/1-30/6 2025)  

CEO Peter Kisbye comments:

"In the period 1 July 2024 - 30 June 2025 ("the Period") the Company delivered the following results:
 

  • The Company delivered a growth in ARR of 32% to DKK 39.990
  • Top line revenue grew 4,6% for the second half year and declined by 2,4% for the full year
  • Staff expenses were reduced by 5,2%, despite a 32% growth in ARR, a testament to our SaaS business model and our efficient processes
  • EBITDA for the year of TDKK -6.742 vs forecasted EBITDA of TDKK - 8.142, budgeted EBITDA of TDKK +291 and vs last year TDKK -5.438
  • Operating profit for the year of TDKK -10.086 vs budget of TDKK -2.662 vs last year TDKK -8.684
  • Cash receipts for the year of TDKK 43.364 TDKK vs last year TDKK 40.177, an increase of 8%

We see our ARR growth rate of 32% as solid and as a testament to our business model. While maintaining this solid growth rate, the Company has continued its focus on operating expenses, efficiency and cash flow. The growth in ARR is not fully reflected in the booked revenue for the full fiscal year, as most new signings of new clients came late in the fiscal year. 
Cash flow continues to be monitored closely. While we are not yet in positive EBITDA territory, we have made significant strides towards that goal and expect to be in EBITDA positive territory during the coming fiscal year.

During the Period our pipeline grew, and our expanding list of large global reference clients continues to generate interest in Loyal Solutions. We had the pleasure of adding the longest running loyalty program in Denmark, Forbrugsforeningen af 1886, as a client and contracted our first client in a new vertical, telecommunications, when E& (formerly Etisalat) joined as client. In May Virgin Velocity launched "Pay with Points" an innovative solution powered by Loyal Solutions technology. In June Emirates Skywards added redemption of points at over 1.000 locations in the UAE to their very successful Skywards Everyday program powered by Loyal Solution`s technology, providing added benefits for their members.
 
Our sales lead times remain lengthy, as we sell strategic long-term partnerships to large clients, who all have evolved processes for procurement.  
We are continuously working on improving lead times in cooperation with our sales partners
Our sales cooperation with Visa for the Visa VMLS product has also progressed as expected. The Company`s LoyalTfacts® SaaS based payment/card-linking platform and technology continues to be viewed by clients as market leading. Our brand positioning focuses on quality, compliance and security, value and ROI for our clients.

Our current clients` programs continued to perform very well during the Period, further validating our SaaS business model, and proving the inherent long term growth potential in SaaS payment/card-linked loyalty programs. While at different stages of maturity, all current programs achieved satisfactory core growth rates year-on-year, and with several clients now expanding their programs into more countries, we have a firm client base on which to build future growth.

Our most important resource, our employees, continued to do an outstanding job. Despite being busy, we have maintained our focus on work-life balance, inclusivity and on providing flexible working hours and locations. Our IT hub in South Africa has been an integral part in delivering solutions and our IT organization benefits from having operations in both Denmark and South Africa.

We truly believe in putting employees first and that team-is-everything, so a big thank you to everyone at Loyal Solutions for the results delivered.
