CEO statement

Summer holidays has almost come to an end and most of our employees are back and working at full steam ahead to make this autumn a truly great one.

Hosni and Eniro

As a responsible and proactive main shareholder of our asset in Eniro we have now taken the first step of refining and simplifying the share structure of Eniro. As noticed when analyzing Eniro the past year we have been able ascertain that the pricing of and trading in Eniro’s various share series is made difficult by the complicated share structure - a serious disadvantage of the Company's shareholders. Now, the share structure does not allow access to the capital market for capital acquisition, it also prevents Eniro from participating in share-based structured transactions. Eniro cannot capitalize on the two most compelling reasons for being a listed company and is seriously hampered in its continued expansion by the current share structure. With a single share structure, we make sure Eniro gains the right conditions to be valued fairly to peers.

As noted in the press release distributed from Eniro we have noted that Eniro has developed positively over the past year. Based on this our assessment is that it would be highly beneficial for Eniro and all Eniro's shareholders to remove the lock-in effects that the current share structure entails and therefore we have proposed that the board call an extra general meeting for the presentation proposal for decision.

Having Hosni leading our most expensive assets gives us the greatest confidence that Eniro will be ready for the structural changes it needs to go through in order to make it a successful company again.

While Hosni is focusing on Eniro I have set sail to reach growth in Prism, our SaaS platform and overall profitability. Our data focused subsidiary of Cloud Explorers, Qbim and MyInfomonitor has continued to grow during the end of the quarter. However, the June result for our Marketing subsidiary Ampilio and Trigger reduced tempo around growth compared what we have seen in previous months. Having June burdening our quarterly figures is of course a setback but I am positive we will reach our overall long term objectives. 

We have already since the June result taken actions to be profitable, some already executed, while some is still in planning phase. We have seen a change in demand from our customers and we are streamlining our organization and offer so that we reach profitability. Due to the economic situation in our areas of operation and what is happening in the world we are prioritizing profit over growth. We can see a change toward the right direction and our focus for the autumn is continuously increased profitability. We have entered a new phase where the first step is to be profitable in every subsidiary and that all businesses have a positive cash flow. We have set the goal to reach this no later than the end of this year. I am positive that we will succeed in reaching our goals.

During the past months our team has worked hard to make sure that we now can provide a Prism that suits every need of our client in our portfolio. Our journey towards one SpectrumOne continues, and we have started to truly utilize our common strengths in our subsidiaries. However, we have not yet seen the full potential in the company, leaving exciting events to be announced.

We have a strong development team, and our different software, routines and way of working are now developed into one company offer. Our implementation team in IT are trained in our tools to make the implementation even faster. We are learning from our sales and Marketing team and developing our offers furthermore. We are emerging and using our tools to be even more competitive and meanwhile making sure we have started to cross sell and utilize our combined offer.  Additionally, we are signing up more partners and continue to invest in partner sales.

We have for instance also partnered with ERP ( Enterprise resource planning) and operating system providers that will help us market and sell our one-of-a-kind solutions. I am proud to say that we have a strong offer with our own and third-party solutions that are world class, unique and still extremely competitive.

Dividing our solutions in different parts and offers gives us an advantage towards the competition and makes it easier for the clients to choose SpectrumOne:

We are growing – together with clients and partners

I am proud to say that we, now more than ever, see an organic growth in Prism and our SaaS offer. During the last couple of months, we have continued to sign new clients followed by a steady growth in recurring revenue. Our existing customers are also continuing to increase their current business with us, a great proof of our customer value delivered and us being eligible to take more of the accessible market in our clients´ budgets.

I am very motivated to see where we are going in the near future.

The story of Trafikportalen and Observit

Being able to cultivate the untapped potential we once saw in Trafikportalen have taken us to the stage where we now have acquired Observit, merged the two assets and distributed them to our shareholders. In the process for the company to be listed and publicly traded we can look back at the success we made in less than a year. Seeing the different assets the company of SpectrumOne holds I don’t find it unreasonable or even unlikely for SpectrumOne to spin off additional assets and make the same journey as in Trafikportalen. Having said that I am committed to make sure we do all that we can to extract and distribute every asset in the company not being part of our core.

Continually annual profitable growth

It’s never easy to predict where the market is going. However  I am fairly convinced our decisions and actions taken are leading us to come out stronger and to face the market  in a position where we can be the leading software provider within data analysis and data management. The past quarter we made sure we are fully equipped to further strengthen our financials. Several costs has been taken to speed up and tighten the organisation fit for the profitable company we want to be.

I am looking forward to an exciting autumn!
