While NetDimensions (AIM: NETD, OTCQX: NETDY) announced a modest reduction in H1 revenue due to a decline in services and support, this masked an 8% improvement in high-margin licence revenues to $6.8m. Costs fell dramatically, enabling a sharp reduction in the EBITDA loss. New business is increasingly lumpy as the group targets large enterprises in high-consequence industries and we have conservatively eased our numbers. Nevertheless, the quality of business continues to improve with the emphasis on recurring software rental revenue. Following the recent decline, the shares look attractive, given the $11.2m cash position (c 16.5p per share), an attractive growth profile, the cash-generative business model and an EV/sales rating at just 0.4x.
