Anders Hamnes, CEO and Founder of Oneflow, comments:

“Oneflow continued to deliver strong sales numbers during the second quarter of 2024. The ARR increased by MSEK 11.4 during the quarter, ending the period at a total of MSEK 152.0, representing a year-over-year growth of 37%.

Oneflow achieved ISO 9001, 14001 and 27001 certifications in June 2024, highlighting our commitment to maintaining the highest standards in everything we do. The ISO certificates will unlock new markets and make Oneflow even more attractive to especially the largest enterprises and government sectors across Europe.

AI is moving fast, and faster than most of us predicted only 1-2 years ago. To continue driving innovation within the contract intelligence space, Oneflow made a strategic decision to expand our AI strategy by partnering with a legal AI company during the second quarter this year. This has enabled Oneflow to offer leading edge contract AI products already today that otherwise would have taken us years to build. On top of that, Oneflow has continued to hire AI competences. All these AI initiatives have added some extra costs not originally planned for a year ago. However, we are confident this will pay off. Oneflow now has a strong initial portfolio of AI-powered products automating and facilitating contract management processes, saving costs and improving quality for our customers, and we have more exciting releases on the horizon. 

In the second quarter of 2024, we incurred a one-time cost of MSEK 1.4 related to share-based payments. This occurred because more options than expected were exercised through incentive programs. This is purely an accounting technicality that impacts equity and has no effect on cash flow.

All in all we had several one-time costs totaling MSEK 3.1 during the second quarter. These expenses included costs related to the ISO certifications, legal work for negotiating and finalizing the agreement with the AI company, and stock option related expenses.  

EBIT losses were MSEK -24.5 during the second quarter, or MSEK -21.4 if we exclude the one-time items. The EBIT margin for the second quarter of 2024 was -76%, compared to -70% in the previous quarter and -106% in the second quarter of the previous year. Adjusted for the one-time items, the EBIT margin was -66% in the second quarter. We are fully focused and committed to reducing our losses, and significant improvements will be seen in the third quarter and going forward.

Gross retention (including downgrades) has been relatively flat during the last quarters, ending the second quarter at 91%. Despite all-time-high new sales during the second quarter this year, expansion sales have been under pressure for some time now due to the strained market sentiment, and Net retention ended at 107% for the second quarter. We expect to improve both Gross and Net retention going forward.

The second quarter has been an eventful period with several heavy weight product releases. In addition to the AI product suite already mentioned, we have released approval flow, suggestions (redlining), and more. Oneflow continues to strengthen its position as a market leader in the contract intelligence space.

We decided to launch a few new KPIs with this report, and at the same time sunset two old ones. Paying users and ARR per user are now gone, and the reason for this is that we’re signing more and more contracts where the user count is less relevant to the customer ARR, and sometimes even misleading. This has to do with how we package our customer offering. One such example could be when customers publish contracts through the API instead of individual users' seats. We have instead shipped three new KPIs that we think are far more interesting: number of paying customers, ACV (Average Customer Value) and ARR per FTE (Full Time Employee).

Oneflow is a company heading full force towards profitability. Almost all our revenue is recurring. We have a gross margin of 94%, and our main cost is salary and employee related expenses. Hence, the ARR per FTE metric should give a good indication on our progress towards profitability. ARR per FTE (including team Sri Lanka) was TSEK 808 in the second quarter, up 41% from TSEK 574 the corresponding quarter one year earlier.

Considering our current ARR and growth rate, our cost base—that now will be more or less fixed throughout 2024 and 2025—we’ll maintain a sufficient cash position and steer towards profitability. We maintain our financial targets of reaching an ARR of MSEK 500 and an EBIT margin of 20% during 2027.

Say contract, think Oneflow!”
