Half year report 1/1-30/6 2021
Loyal Solutions delivers strong second half result with 33% organic revenue growth despite Covid.
The second half of the financial year 20/21 (1/7 2020-30/6 2021) was dominated by the IPO (“Initial Public Offering”) process that was successfully completed with the listing on Nasdaq First North Growth Market Stockholm, 3 June 2021.
Thus, while the first half of the financial year (1/7-31/12 2020) was business as usual, the decision to conduct the IPO demanded significant company resources and additional staffing in the second half of the financial year (1/1-30/6 2021). Despite the significant additional workload and the concurrent Covid situation, the Company managed to deliver all client solutions on time and deliver an organic increase in revenue of 33% compared to financial year 2019/2020. This was achieved due to a strong and resilient SaaS business model and an impressive commitment and effort from the Loyal Solutions team.
During the period the Company continued to expand its pipeline, with some of these new agreements having been announced after 30 June 2021. In addition, the company reached an important milestone by becoming PCI-DSS level 1 certified. Level 1 certification is the highest achievable, and is required to service large companies, especially in the FinTech sector. The Company also continued to build new advanced features into the successful LoyalTfacts® platform.
