Presentation of the previous period is based on 19 months due to the change of year end date following the acquisition of the Proactis SA (formerly Hubwoo SA) Group by the Proactis Holdings plc Group. Financial information for the 12 months to the end of July 2018 is shown for illustrative purposes only.
Revenues
Over the 12-month period, revenue declined by 47% compared to the 19 months ending 31 July 2018. Looking at the 12 month prior period ending 31 July 2018, revenue was €16,8 M, being a decrease of 13%. This is mainly due to the non-renewal of SAP solution contracts at the end of contract or in the case of a contract suite renewal, the cancellation of the element relating to third-party software. The revenues derived from the Proactis SA Business Network solution suite were in line with prior year.
Profitability
The Company recorded an EBITDA for the 12-month period ended 31 July 2019 of €2.7M (19-month period ended 31 July 2018: €6.1M). This reduction reflects mainly the decreased sales in the period.
