Message from the CEO:
Improved growth, profitability and gross margin
After a period of slow growth, the second quarter came in strong where all our key financial targets improved. ARR growth was a healthy +13 % to 63 MSEK, driven by major contracts signed already in the first quarter of the year. We managed to increase our gross margin to 83 % through platform improvements and cost control and profitability improved with a reported EBIT margin of 5 %. The strength of our business model was also reflected in positive operational cashflow, and a cash position increasing by 4 MSEK. A positive Net Revenue Retention (NRR) of 102 % indicates customer confidence. Churn was a modest 1,1 %.
New types of buyers
Our partners brought in a wide range of new end-clients, particularly from NGOs and government branches, likely reflecting a period when resilience is key. We also continued to strengthen and deepen our already strong position in the insurance industry. During the quarter, we added five new partners to our network. After inbound interest from various software companies we have entered into partner agreement with the first software company in order to evaluate the potential of this channel. We also saw an all-time high in inbound tender requests, but long decision cycles and ever-growing information security requirements remain. The average deal size was lower than expected, primarily due to the product mix in the deals. We will continue to work with this to optimize our processes.
Insurance - the next frontier of travel risk management
Our industry has been developed and driven by medical assistance providers and security risk providers. Lately, it has been driven more by security providers than by medical providers. This often involves high-end services, packaged and sold as memberships to enterprise clients, with Safeture providing the technology.
However, the money fuelling the industry comes from the fourth pillar within travel risk management, the insurance companies. Now we see insurance companies taking a more active approach to this industry. Here is our take on the trends happening right now and why Safeture believes interesting growth opportunities may arise.
· Travel insurance is growing with 15 % year on year, but differentiation is difficult.
· Business travel insurance is shifting, and customers are requiring more from their insurance regarding duty of care.
· Insurers are moving toward service ecosystems where digital integration among the parties becomes more important.
· Regulation and customer expectations are increasing the pressure.
Travel insurance premiums represent a USD 25 billion industry and are expected to triple over the next 10 years due to rising demand, greater complexity, and shifting travel patterns. Travel risk management will likely be a core offering for all travel insurance providers, both B2B and B2C. Safeture already works with several insurance companies, and this business accounts for about a third of our revenue. Our largest revenue cohort, about 50%, comes from security assistance partners.
