Pre-Close Trading Update - 24 January 2024
Computacenter plc ("Computacenter" or the "Group"), a leading independent technology and services provider, today publishes a trading update, based on preliminary unaudited financial information, for the year ended 31 December 2023 ("the year").
Record adjusted1 profit before tax, with cash generation ahead of expectations, while continuing to invest for future growth
We expect FY 2023 to be another record year of adjusted1 profit before tax. This result has been delivered against the backdrop of uncertain macroeconomic conditions throughout the year while, as planned, increasing the level of investment in strategic initiatives. It reflects the strength of our integrated Technology Sourcing and Services model as well as our geographic diversity.
Total revenue, on a Gross Invoiced Income basis, increased by 12% on both a reported and constant currency basis driven by strong growth in Technology Sourcing and solid growth in Services. In Technology Sourcing, after a very strong performance in the first half of 2023, the second half of the year saw an anticipated normalisation of activity as certain projects were completed. Services revenue growth for the year was solid. Inflation remained a headwind, however we managed our margin recovery effectively as the year progressed.
By geography for the year, the strength of Germany and North America outweighed the impact of a weaker performance in the UK where, as previously highlighted, we have made changes to improve our performance.
재무 상태
As industry supply chains normalised across the year, following disruption during the pandemic, we have managed our inventory position very effectively and generated strong levels of cash. The Group's adjusted net funds2, excluding IFRS16 lease liabilities, finished the year extremely strongly at around £450m, ahead of our expectations. December is the peak month in our annual cash cycle with net outflows expected to occur through to the end of March 2024.
Given the strength of our balance sheet, we are evaluating our options. Historically, Computacenter has a track record of returning surplus capital to shareholders when suitable acquisitions are not available.
그룹 전망
2024년을 전망할 때, 계속해서 불확실한 거시경제적 배경 속에서 그룹은 계속해서 경쟁하고 더 많은 시장 점유율을 확보할 수 있는 좋은 위치에 있습니다.
As anticipated, we expect to see Technology Sourcing volumes normalise in 2024 as some of the high volume, low margin projects we delivered, especially in the first half of 2023, were completed. In Services we expect continued growth while inflationary pressures are expected to moderate further.
우리는 장기적인 성과를 유지하기 위해 시스템을 개선하고 경쟁력을 향상시키기 위한 전략적 계획에 계속 투자할 것입니다. 동시에 우리는 그룹 전체에 생산성 이점을 제공하는 데 점점 더 중점을 두고 있습니다.
Overall, we expect to make further progress in FY 2024 with a more challenging comparison in the first half of the year than in the second half.
더 나아가서 우리는 혁신의 속도와 기술 수요의 성장에 기대를 걸고 있습니다. 기술 소싱, 전문 서비스 및 관리 서비스 분야의 강점과 장기적으로 고객 관계 유지 및 극대화에 중점을 두고 있는 우리는 수익성 있는 성장과 지속적인 현금 창출을 제공할 수 있는 좋은 위치에 있다고 믿습니다.
We look forward to publishing our final results for the year ended 31 December 2023 on Wednesday 20 March 2024.
