Trading Update

and Notice of Results

1Spatial, a global leader in Location Master Data Management ("LMDM") software and solutions, is pleased to provide an update on trading for the financial year ended 31 January 2023 ("FY2023").

Based on the unaudited financial results, the Group expects to report significant progress against key financial metrics, providing a strong platform for further growth in future years.

Total revenue for the year is expected to be no less than £29.8m (FY2022: £27.0m) with approximately 50% (FY2022: 45%) represented by recurring revenue. Within recurring revenues, term licence revenue has increased by approximately 80% to £5.2m (FY22: £2.9m). The US was the most significant contributor to annualised recurring revenue growth delivering 45% growth year-on-year at constant currency.

Despite the impact of inflationary cost increases, adjusted EBITDA is expected to be no less than £4.9m (FY2022: £4.2m) and profit before tax not less than £0.9m (FY2022: £0.2m).

The Group generated cash from operations of £5.3m in FY2023 (FY2022: £2.5m) and continued to invest in the expansion of the sales, delivery, and cloud technology teams. The Group's net cash will be no less than £3.0m at 31 January 2023, an increase from £2.3m at 31 July 2022 (31 January 2022: £3.2m) after the final payment in H2 2023 of £0.3m in deferred consideration for the acquisition of Geomap Imagis.

Outlook

The Group is continuing to invest in its SaaS based solutions and trials for these including Traffic Management Plan Automation (TMPA) in the UK and NG911 in the US are progressing well.

With a healthy sales pipeline, strong order book and increased recurring revenues, the Board is confident that the progress made over the past year is set to continue.

Notice of Results

The Company expects to announce audited final results for the year ended 31 January 2023 on 26 April 2023.

Commenting on the update, 1Spatial CEO, Claire Milverton, said:

"Our strong performance in the year, fuelled by a number of contract wins, demonstrates that 1Spatial and location data sits right at the heart of the digital transformation taking place across multiple sectors.  

"We had a good end to our financial year and this momentum has continued into FY2024. Whilst cognisant of inflationary pressures, we believe the investments we are making in our people and technology will enable us to capitalise on the significant market opportunity and, we look to the future with confidence."
