208% growth in SaaS revenue
Cameleon Software had many commercial successes in the first half, in keeping with the excellent performance recorded in 2012. The company notably continued to roll out its Cameleon Cloud offer with 208% growth in SaaS revenue over the first half. In particular, the company signed contracts with a global leader in the sale of telecoms solutions, with the building management division (security and technical and energy management) of a high-tech European conglomerate and with an air-conditioning equipment market leader, an international company belonging to a US group. A long-standing Group client also switched to SaaS mode for a total amount of more than ?1.5M of SaaS orders over the next five years.
72% growth in the software order book over the last twelve months
The rampup of the SaaS model has resulted in a sharp increase in the software order book (perpetual licenses and SaaS royalties excluding maintenance) to ?9.51M at June 30, 2013, vs. ?5.54M at June 30, 2012, representing growth of more than 72% over the year.
This SaaS sales momentum has boosted service revenues for the period.
Jacques Soumeillan, the Chairman and CEO of Cameleon Software, explains that: "This first half shows the soundness of the profitable growth model developed by Cameleon Software and is fully in line with the successes achieved over the past two years. New prestigious clients are reinforcing our installed base on the Cloud, including in Europe. This confirms that the Cameleon suite is well positioned and appropriate to our clients' sales efficiency needs. All of these factors make us confident about the growth and profit outlook for 2013. Every day Cameleon gains a little more ground on the extremely high growth CPQ (Configure Price Quote) market."
