hSenid Business Solutions PLC (hBS) reported total revenue of LKR 433.0 million for the three months ending on March 31, 2024 recording a year-over-year growth of 10.7 percent (21.1 percent in USD constant currency terms) compared to LKR 391.0 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year. For the full year FY24, hBS generated a total revenue of LKR 1,645.3 million, recording a 12.4 percent year-over-year growth (19.6 percent in USD constant currency terms).

hBS recorded a net loss of LKR 155.3 million for the quarter which was inclusive of c. LKR 102 million in one-off non-cash items comprising LKR 57 million in forex losses, LKR 22 million in gratuity provisions and LKR 23 million in deferred tax expenses on account of reversals in debtor provisions.

The PeoplesHR Cloud business continues to be the primary driver of the company's top line, generating a revenue of LKR 249.7 million and recording a year-over-year growth of 36.0 percent (50.8 percent in USD constant currency terms) during the quarter. This was supported by recurring subscription revenues in the segment, which accounted for 40.3 percent of total revenues, contributing to the overall recurring revenue base of the company. Total company recurring revenues accounted for approximately 54.0 percent of the total revenue for the fourth quarter, while for the full year, total recurring revenues stood at 57.0 percent of total revenues.

From a regional standpoint, Sri Lanka and Middle East & Africa (MEA) region contributed to the topline growth during the quarter. MEA region revenues included both new projects and revenues from the Ugandan Government project, which entered its third and final phase of implementation.

During the quarter, the company's core exit ARR (Annualized Recurring Revenue) recorded a figure of USD 3.1 million which amounts to a year-over-year growth of 39 percent in constant currency terms. The core exit ARR generated by the PHR Cloud business recorded a robust 53 percent year-over-year growth demonstrating the strength of the key segment of the business that has been driving growth.

New deals for the quarter recorded a very strong USD 1.6 million with demand driven by MEA and South Asia regions. MEA new deals witnessed strong demand for PeoplesHR On-Premise product, which accounted for 62.7 percent of total new deals. For the full year however, PeoplesHR Cloud accounted for 61.5 percent of new deals compared to 47.2 percent in the previous year. The average deal value for the full financial year continued to increase significantly in line with the strategy to focus on a smaller number of larger deals.

Looking at FY25, our key focus remains on building further traction in the APAC region by positioning our brand as a leading HR Technology player. We continue to reap benefits from our investments over the past year in the region, and believe it will be a key contributor to the PeoplesHR cloud business, driving recurring revenues of the company. Furthermore, the year will also see further collaborations with our partner network to broaden our customer reach and increase market footprint.

HBS performance is depending on the Apparel exporters.
*Even though SL is slowing down Bangladesh , India and African region is back on track. This will benefit HBS going forward.

ECONOMYNEXT – Sri Lanka-based tech company hSenid Business Solutions will reallocate 350 million rupees raised through an initial public offering for acquisitions in APAC and East African regions, for market development instead.

“Given the risks and rewards profile involved in inorganic growth that is envisaged in strategic investments, organic growth as envisaged in market development activities is expected to yield better returns on investment.”
