Introduction | Q4 2023 | 04 |
Introduction
Omda finished 2023 with Q4 sales reaching NOK 109 million, 11% up from
Q4-22. This means we also achieved a record annual revenue of NOK 415 million, exceeding our target of NOK 400 million.
EBITDA was 19% compared to -21% in the same quarter last year. Although this is a significant step, there is still room for improvement. We have identified several levers for securing that EBITDA gradually improves and reaches the average target of 30%.
The cost side at Omda comprises three main categories: cost of goods sold (COGS), other costs, and personnel expenses. These are expected to account for 5%, 15%, and 50% of revenue, respectively, to ensure a stable average 30% EBITDA margin.
COGS includes costs related to the resale of software that can be replaced with in-house software over time. This cost item has decreased from 11% in Q4-20 to 6.6% in Q4-23. With increased sales combined with ongoing measures to replace third-party solutions with own software, we will continue to approach the target of 5% during 2024.
Other costs are 15% for the quarter compared to 22% in the same quarter last year.
Personnel costs account for 60% in Q4-23 compared to 75% in Q4-22, which is a substantial improvement. However, further measures, primarily related to the use of external consultants, will be taken to fully reach and maintain the targeted average margin of 30% over time.
The use of consultants in large customer projects within LIMS and Emergency is the primary driver that has affected the personnel costs negatively. These projects have significant long-term value as they drive recurring revenues over the next decades. Hence, completing these projects with the use of consultants will create value. Most of them will conclude in 2024, significantly reducing the consultancy costs going forward. New projects will be staffed with internal resources mainly. Collectively, these measures are expected to reduce personnel costs to the target level of around 50% in 2024.
Introduction | Q4 2023 | 05 |
Based on the results for Q4-23 and planned measures, we maintain the target margin of 30% for the current business.
Working capital and cash conversion
We expect both working capital and cash flow from operations throughout the year to improve and normalise during 2024.
Acquisitions
Although the main priority in all business areas is to maintain organic growth at the current level in adddition to achieveing profitability and cash conversion targets, activity in the M&A area is high. During the fourth quarter of 2023, we refinanced our existing bond loan with a tap-issue of up to NOK 500 million. In addition, we have a cash reserve of NOK 120 million and expected cash flow from operations that give us the opportunity to make both small and large acquisitions. We will take action when terms and the subsequent business case display sufficient return.
"With income growth of 11% and a cost reduction of 25% in 2023, we are well positioned for positive profitability development in 2024."

Financial Review
These condensed interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with Norwegian Accounting Standard 11 Interim Financial Statements (NRS 11 Delårsregnskap). These condensed interim financial statements are unaudited and do not include all the information and disclosures required by the Norwegian Accounting Act and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in Norway (NGAAP) for a complete set of financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022. A description of the significant accounting policies applied in preparing these condensed interim financial statements is included in Omda's Consolidated annual financial statements of 2022, available at omda.com/omda-investors.
RESULTS FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER 2023
Omda displayed 11% growth in reported income, measured in NOK, for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to Q4-22, in spite of the sale of the Finnish scanner business in Q3. Reported EBITDA increased to 20.5 million (-20.2). The reported EBITDA-margin increased to 19% in Q4-23, from -21% in the same period of 2022. The improvement compared to the previous quarter is a consequence of continued organic growth combined with actions related to the margin-improvement programme that was initiated in Q4-22.
M&A
Omda did not acquire any new businesses in the quarter. The company focused on integration activities related to the last four acquisitions and growing the prospect list. We are maintaining and developing dialogues with potential new acquisition candidates and exploring alternatives for further divestment of non- strategic assets.
PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT
Revenue
Total income in the fourth quarter of 2023 amounted to 109.2 million (98).
Recurring revenue comprises 75% of total sales and grew 11% compared to Q4-22.
Recurring revenues continue to grow in accordance with expectations, while sale of new licenses, which by nature vary from quarter to quarter, was above the same quarter last year. Professional Services increased 22% compared to Q4-22, ending at 21.9 million (17.9).
Hardware sales came in below the same quarter last year, ending at 0.9 million (3.6). Hardware sales relate primarily to Business Area "Emergency".
