This report is intended to help UK small- and mid-cap investors gain a better understanding of software companies’ routes to market, and to highlight how one of the most important facets of the way in which they grow and deliver value is routinely ignored. We examine sales processes for six UK-listed companies and one that has recently been taken over, and consider why they have followed their respective paths.

Alphawave Semi has reduced guidance for FY23 and prospectively citing lower revenues from China, changes in expected revenue recognition from long-term contracts, and continuing investment in R&D. The share price has reacted negatively, giving up most of the gains since the trading statement at the end of January. Current consensus, which is a good match for pre-existing guidance, should be reduced, most likely following release of the FY23 results and full 1Q24 trading update due on 23 April. H

On 9 January last year, we set out our ten top stock picks for 2023, for what turned out to be another relatively poor twelve months for UK equities due to two wars, stubbornly high inflation and further tightening of monetary policy. This was even as other major markets, such as the US, largely recovered in the year. In the 2023 calendar year, the AIM All-Share index fell 8.2% and is still 42% off its 2021 high. From the release of our 2023 top picks note, the average total return (assuming div

Eleco’s FY23 trading update highlights record recurring revenue growth of +22% to £20.7m, strong profitability that leads us to expect FY23E adjusted EBITDA +3% ahead of our previous forecast, and a confident outlook that leads us to reiterate our FY24-26E EBITDA and EFCF. Across the group, excellent execution of the SaaS transition has driven recurring revenue to 74% of group revenue from 64% in FY22, and ARR is +24% yoy to £22.6m (£19.7m at H1), including c£2m of ARR from the successful acquis

A punchy 1H24 is especially impressive when compared with a very strong prior year. 1H24 EBITDA of £1.5m (21% EBITDA margin) was delivered from revenue of £7.0m, delivering EBITDA growth of 92% from rev growth of 15% (10% at constant currency). With no capitalised R&D, resulting free cashflow of £1.4m demonstrated impressive cash conversion, and an increase in net cash (no debt) to £9.7m, which provides assurance for the typically very large customers and partners. Given such strong performance,

Maintel has reported a trading update for the year ending December 2023, indicating revenue in of at least £101m and adj EBITDA of “in excess of £9m”, compared with respective forecasts of £98m and £8.6m. Net debt of £18.1m also outperforms our expected year-end net debt of £18.6m. The group is continuing the trend established with the reintroduction of forecasts in April 2023, where growing confidence in delivery led to upgraded forecasts in both August and September, and still achieving outper

ATG’s H1/24 trading statement indicates revenue for the six-month period to 31 March 2024 was $86m, a 6% increase on H1/23 (1% organic growth), helped by the addition of the EstateSales.Net (ESN) marketplace last year, which performed well in the period. Total marketplace revenue increased 2% (organic), driven by growth in value-added services (VAS) and event fees, offsetting a decline in commission revenue (mainly through lower asset prices).
