Enprise Group reports strong revenue growth
AUCKLAND, 14 June, 2018. Hi-tech software and services investment
company Enprise Group (NZAX: ENS) today reported that revenue for the
full-year to 31 March 2018 grew by 7.25% to $8.95 million for the core
business. During the period Enprise also took a 47.09% stake in Australia’s
largest MYOB enterprise reseller: Kilimanjaro Consulting.
The investment in Kilimanjaro Consulting has given Enprise Group a leadership
position across the region in both MYOB Exo and MYOB Advanced. Enprise Group
CEO Elliot Cooper noted that “Business synergies are now starting to flow from
sharing cloud technologies, marketing and consulting resources across Enprise
Solutions and Kilimanjaro Consulting.”
During the period, Enprise also grew its investments in companies offering
complementary software solutions by adding positions in iSell and Vadacom to
Enprise’s investment in Datagate.
“Enprise is gaining traction in leveraging the customer databases of the investee
companies, including Datagate, iSell and Vadacom, for the benefit of all the
companies in the Group. We expect more growth, and more profitable growth, as a
result of this strategy,” Mr Cooper says.
Australian revenue in Enprise’s core operating business grew 8.6% to $1.95
million and New Zealand revenue grew 7.7% to $6.97 million. Profitability from
continuing operations was virtually unchanged at $814,000. Net tangible assets
per ENS share increased 42% to 21 cents per share, after paying 4.5 cents per
share in dividends during the period.
At 31 March 2018 cash at bank was $1,235,000 (2017 $752,000). Net profit after
tax for the period was $101,000, compared to $657,000 last year. This result
incorporates Enprise’s share of loses in Datagate and Kilimanjaro Consulting. The
loss from Datagate reflects its continued push into new markets having recently
secured its first customers in the United Kingdom and United States. The
performance of Kilimanjaro Consulting for the period is largely a result of the
timing of Enprise’s investment.
“Kilimanjaro Consulting’s loss for the period to 31 March 2018 reflects the
seasonality of its contracted revenue and is in keeping with its performance in
prior years. With a large number of renewals due to close before the end of the 30
June Australian financial year, we are expecting a strong start to the New Zealand
financial year from Kilimanjaro Consulting,” Elliot Cooper says.
