Business update
ARR growth in January was significantly lower than anticipated. Since then, we have, however, regained most of the lost ground, with April for example being 60% higher than the sales budget. By end of Q1 2024 we are, however still behind budget. ARR guidance for 2024, remains to be 45 to 49 MDKK.
EBITDA was slightly better than expected in Q1. The EBITDA guidance for 2024 is also unchanged at -5.6 MDKK to -9.6 MDKK.
By May 3, Plesner Law Firm and RISMA launched a new solution for compliance with the EU regulation Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA). The solution is aimed for the financial sector. There are two EU security frameworks that goes into force in January 2025, DORA and NIS2. RISMA now have solutions in place for both frameworks. We expect both of these solutions, as well as the solution for sustainability reporting, CSRD, to contribute significantly for the remaining part of 2024.
The cash position remains to be strong as we more or less had neutral cashflow again in Q1 2024.
