Agillic releases H1 2024 financial report with 6% decrease in ARR from Subscriptions YoY and EBITDA of DKK 0.6 million

Announcement no. 06 2024

Copenhagen - 27 August 2024 - Agillic A/S

ARR Subscriptions decreased 6% in H1 2024 due to clients’ technology consolidations and M&A driven changes primarily in Q1 2024. Agillic maintains its 2024 guidance due to expected growth from both existing clients and new sales in the second half 2024 as well as cost measures implemented during the first half 2024. Net profit was DKK 3.6 million vs. DKK -4.7 million 30 June 2023. The increase is mainly due to the final decision of the Danish Tax Authorities review, approving 71% of the applied tax credit for 2019-2022.
