Netcompany Denmark
Revenue growth in the Danish business
unit was 2.2% driven by growth in the
public segment of 9.7%, whereas the pri-
vate segment realised a decline of 7.8% in
revenue growth in the second quarter –
following the same patterns as seen in the
first quarter of the year. Q2 2023 had one
working day less compared to last year
impacting growth negatively by 1.8 per-
centage points. Pipeline continues to de-
velop satisfactorily, however in the private
segment conversion time is prolonged due
to the critical nature of the solutions and
the continued macro economic uncertain-
ty.
As realised in Q1, the changed composi-
tion of employee churn, with a significant-
ly higher proportion of churn being forced
as opposed to voluntary, continued during
Q2 2023. The rightsizing of the pyramid
structure in Denmark is expected to be
finalised during the third quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 18.1% com-
pared to 23.5 % in Q2 2022. The higher
level of forced churn and costs for the en-
hanced “Go-To-Market” approach were the
main reasons for the lower margin. The
impact of one working day less was nega-
tive 1.4 percentage points in the quarter.
The lower margin in Q2 was in line with
expectations.
Client facing FTEs grew 11% in Q2 com-
pared to 14.4% in Q1, impacted by the
rightsizing of the pyramid structure.
Netcompany-Intrasoft
Revenue in Netcompany-Intrasoft grew
by 25.1% to DKK 524.1m in Q2 2023. The
growth in Q2 was driven by strong perfor-
mance in the public and EU area that grew
25.2% supported by equally strong growth
in the private segment that grew 24.6%.
FTEs grew 15.1% in the second quarter
of 2023. During the second quarter two
contracts were signed that included an
element of software license, related to the
products ERMIS (customs Austria) and
PERSEUS (social security Greece).
Adjusted EBITDA margin was 14.3% in Q2
2023 compared to 12.4% in the same pe-
riod last year. The improved margin was a
result of the contracts signed that includ-
ed software license. In addition, the level
of utilisation remained at the same high
level as realised in Q1 2023, which also im-
pacted margins positively.
Netcompany UK
In the UK, the strong growth momentum
observed during Q1 was continued into
Q2 and revenue grew 28.9% compared to
the same period last year. The growth was
purely generated in the public segment
where revenue grew by 42.9% - in the pri-
vate segment revenue declined 2.1%. The
strong growth in the public segment was
supported by continued strong relation-
ships with clients like NHS, HMRC, Ministry
of Defence and other large public entities
in the UK.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was slightly
lower in Q2 2023 compared to the same
period last year. The lower margin in Q2
2023 was a result of a significant increase
in hours spent on business development
and tender writing – activities that ena-
bled the UK to secure two significant con-
tracts early in Q3 – that will be supporting
continued high growth in the UK for the
years to come. Client facing FTEs grew by
23.9%.
Netcompany Norway
Revenue growth in Netcompany Nor-
way was 58.5% in Q2 2023 compared to
the same period last year. As in previous
quarters, growth was driven by the pri-
vate segment in Norway that grew 83.4%
particularly generated by one larger en-
gagement. Revenue in the public segment
increased by 42% in Q2 2023. A large part
of that growth can be attributed to the
negative impact from project adjustments
that was realised in Q2 2022 in Norway.
Adjusted EBITDA margin was negative
4.9% compared to negative 31.2% in Q2
2022.
Netcompany Netherlands
Revenue in the Dutch business unit grew
74.8% in Q2 2023 – however from a low
absolute level. Growth was – in line with
previous quarters – generated in the pub-
lic segment. Growth was driven by higher
win ratio of new larger projects and better
project pricing as projects that has his-
torically been challenging have now been
completed. Consequently, client facing
FTEs increased 21.5% – significantly lower
than revenue growth.
Adjusted EBITDA was negative 18.4%
compared to negative 57.6% in Q2 2022.
The current project portfolio and the pipe-
line opportunities support continued prof-
itable growth in the Netherlands through-
out the year and in the years to come.
