2013 Annual Report

Can't decide whether to hang it out with these or sell up and pile into blnx ... errr I'll sleep on it :-)

Dil I've decided to hold and not take any profit yet, rightly or wrongly.

Perhaps a few more contract wins that are sitting in the wings will push this higher.

GIANT could transform, hope you're right.

Fusionex growth to be driven by Giant solution .


Tuesday, 04 February 2014 10:00 Tanu Pandey 0 Comments


Fusionex International plc, the London-listed Malaysian software company will sign a string of multimillion dollar contracts soon for its big data analytics solution, Giant, which it launchedin December last year.

“There is interest pouring in from various quarters and we are in the last leg of signing a lot of contracts very soon. You may see some contracts in this quarter itself,” Fusionex MD Ivan Teh (picture) told The Malaysian Reserve (TMR) in an interview.

Teh, however, did not specify the name of the clients or the monetary size of the contracts. The company announced its first contract for Giant last week.

”The contract is a multimillion dollar deal over a five-year term, with a subsequent option for renewal,” the company said in an announcement to the London stock exchange.

After the announcement, Fusionex stocks rose almost 15% to close at £6.75 (RM36.85).

Fusionex, listed on London’s Alternative Investment Market (AIM), flashed an impressive 42% year-onyear (YoY) jump in its revenue for last year to RM44.4 million and a 37% YoY jump in gross profit to RM20.5 million. Its market capitalisation touched RM1 billion recently.

“We launched Giant in December so its impact has not been reflected in last year’s financial results. It will be reflected in this year’s results,” Teh told TMR.

He said the analytics business for the firm contributed to strong growth and expects a double-digit growth for the company’s earnings in 2014.

Giant, a tool which uses graphics, visualisations and a drag-and-drop interface to represent business data, is a major tool in Fusionex’s armour as the company focuses on software that offers commercial insights and predictions.

Two-thirds of its income comes from clients in the Asian region and the rest from the European and American markets.

The company is not stopping its expansion plans, Teh pointed out. “We are developing our partner channel network for selective geographical locations. The partners will be high quality global or multinational firms. Through these partners we will not need to have establishments or offices in various locations but we can expand our business to these locations,” Teh said.

Fusionex has been steadily nudging up its revenue since its debut on the London stock exchange.

For its financial year ended Sept 30, 2012, Fusionex recorded a net profit of RM13.1 million and a revenue of RM31.3 million.

In 2011, it had a net profit of RM8.6 million and a revenue of RM24.5 million.
