Financial Outlook

Solocal 2020: a two-foldtransformation
Printdiscontinuationand subscriptionmode willimpact 2020 KPIs
- Solocal business is a fixed cost business
- Direct costsrepresent 20%-25% of the revenue
- Indirect costs(personnel costs, SG&A) have always been shared between the two core activities Print & Digital
- As long as the print business represented a significant portion of the business, indirect costs were allocated to both business according to allocation key as illustrated in our former communications
- As announced early 2019, the last edition of printed directories will occur in 2020

A deeptransformation has enableda stronggrowthin Digital Ebitda
A contributive vision of the Print business
- The print business will be formally discontinued from an accounting perspective in 2020.
- The marginal profit of the Print business will disappear; while
- All indirect costs will remain and will be mechanically allocated to the Digital business.
- All transformation implemented over the last two years aimed to develop the digital business and to avoid a «cliff effect» enabling to drive a strong growth in the Digital Ebitda business of up to 30% of revenue

Transition to a subscriptionmodel: a virtuouscircle
Fromorderintaketo revenues
- The Subscription model is absolutely key for the new Solocal as it should enable
- To reduce churn
- To increase sales bandwidth,to do upsell, cross-sell and acquire new customers
- Historically order intake was used as an alternative KPI since it was a proxy for revenues illustrating the sales dynamics. It was converted into revenues for 2/3, during the first 12 months
-
The subscription model will make order intake meaningless as 2020 moves forward
Revenues will become the key indicator

Financial Outlook

Solocal 2020: a two-foldtransformation
Printdiscontinuationand subscriptionmode willimpact 2020 KPIs
- Solocal business is a fixed cost business
- Direct costsrepresent 20%-25% of the revenue
- Indirect costs(personnel costs, SG&A) have always been shared between the two core activities Print & Digital
- As long as the print business represented a significant portion of the business, indirect costs were allocated to both business according to allocation key as illustrated in our former communications
- As announced early 2019, the last edition of printed directories will occur in 2020

A deeptransformation has enableda stronggrowthin Digital Ebitda
A contributive vision of the Print business
- The print business will be formally discontinued from an accounting perspective in 2020.
- The marginal profit of the Print business will disappear; while
- All indirect costs will remain and will be mechanically allocated to the Digital business.
- All transformation implemented over the last two years aimed to develop the digital business and to avoid a «cliff effect» enabling to drive a strong growth in the Digital Ebitda business of up to 30% of revenue

Transition to a subscriptionmodel: a virtuouscircle
Fromorderintaketo revenues
- The Subscription model is absolutely key for the new Solocal as it should enable
- To reduce churn
- To increase sales bandwidth,to do upsell, cross-sell and acquire new customers
- Historically order intake was used as an alternative KPI since it was a proxy for revenues illustrating the sales dynamics. It was converted into revenues for 2/3, during the first 12 months
-
The subscription model will make order intake meaningless as 2020 moves forward
Revenues will become the key indicator
