1Spatial - Investing in the transformational SaaS opportunity

1Spatial’s FY24 results reflected robust momentum for the enterprise business and continued improvement in the revenue mix, with investment in growth suppressing margin and cash generation. This investment phase will continue in FY25 to lay the foundation for transformational growth from 1Streetworks and in the US in the coming years. Our scenario analysis indicates the upside from successful execution is significant, with further wins for 1Streetworks and in the US being the key catalysts for more rapid, operationally geared growth to be priced in.

1Spatial - £1m 1Streetworks deal highlights the opportunity

1Spatial has announced the completion of a landmark deal for its key 1Streetworks application. Originally highlighted at the interims, the company has now revealed the client to be Surrey County Council. The deal is encouraging for two reasons. Firstly, the size of the deal (£1m over 12 months) indicates that the potential opportunity for this product is large. Secondly, the council’s plan to use the product as a collaboration tool with contractors and utility companies should help stimulate wider adoption within the industry.

1Spatial - Contract momentum underpins growth prospects

1Spatial’s H1 results showed a continued improvement in the quality of revenues, while recent deal flow provides good support for our expectation of faster growth and margin expansion from H2. Most notably, with the results the company has announced a second win (subject to contract completion) for the key 1Streetworks SaaS product. The size of the deal – £1m over one year with a UK county council – provides a good indication that the market opportunity for this product is substantial, while the deployment should also lower the barriers for adoption of the product with other potential clients....

This is a new Federal government-level deal for the business, building on the momentum 1Spatial has been reporting at state level, where it now has contracts or framework agreements with 21 states (up from 18 at the FY24 year-end).

Games Workshop Group - A notable acceleration in Q225

Games Workshop Group’s (GAW’s) H125 trading update suggests the company enjoyed a strong Q225 in both its core business (due to the launch of the fourth edition of Age of Sigmar midway through Q125) and licensing (due to the success of the Space Marine 2 video game). These are impressive in the context of the tough comparative from the prior year’s launch of the new edition of Warhammer 40K (40K) and the currency headwinds in the early part of H125. We upgrade our profit estimates for FY25 (by 7%) and FY26 (by 3%) to reflect the outperformance versus our prior expectations.

Altron - Further margin expansion in H125

Altron reported a 105% y-o-y increase in operating profit before capital items in H125, with margin expansion of 5.1pp to 9.8%. The Platforms businesses were particularly strong, with Netstar and FinTech achieving material revenue and profit growth. Altron Digital Business, still in the integration phase, saw some non-recurring costs and the shift of several project starts into H225, but has seen indications that performance should improve in FY26. Management raised its FY26 operating profit target, partly to reflect the inclusion of Altron Document Solutions (ADS) in continuing operations. We...
