Checkit - Contract expansions drive order intake
In H125, Checkit reported year-on-year growth in annual recurring revenue (ARR) of 9%, with strong order intake partially offset by higher churn. Existing customers contributed more than half of ARR growth, evidence of the land and expand strategy at work. The company maintains its short- and medium-term outlook, including its target to reach EBITDA break-even in FY27, with the narrowing H125 EBITDA loss confirming progress towards this. We maintain our ARR, revenue and EBITDA forecasts and redu...

Checkit - No intention to bid for Crimson Tide
On 26 June, Checkit announced that it did not intend to make a formal bid for Crimson Tide. Since Checkit’s original and revised all-equity proposals, another bidder, Ideagen, has expressed an intention to make an all-cash bid at a significantly higher price. Checkit will now refocus on organic growth and working towards profitability. Separately, an input VAT dispute with HMRC has concluded in Checkit’s favour, removing the related contingent liability.

Checkit - Signposting the path to profitability
In a tough trading environment, Checkit managed to grow FY24 revenue by 17% and reduce EBITDA losses by nearly half. The company has had a positive start to FY25 with new contract wins and the launch of a new module. Focus on growth from its existing customer base combined with strict cost control is helping Checkit to make steady progress towards its target of positive EBITDA and cash generation in FY27.

Checkit - New product launch and contract wins
Checkit has won contracts with two customers worth at least £417k over the three-year lives of the contracts, confirming its ability to upsell to its existing customer base and supporting our forecasts. Having trialled the new technology with multiple customers, Checkit has launched its Asset Intelligence module, which uses advanced analytics and machine learning to enhance customer sustainability, reduce costs and increase revenue.

Checkit - FY24 revenue and ARR in line, EBITDA ahead
Checkit’s FY24 trading update confirmed that revenue and year-end annual recurring revenue (ARR) were in line with our forecasts, up 17% and 16% respectively.

Checkit - Making good progress towards profitability
Checkit reported annual recurring revenue (ARR) growth of 24% y-o-y in H124, with more than half of the growth from upsells and cross-sells to its existing customer base. Revenue was 19% higher y-o-y and EBITDA losses nearly halved y-o-y. We have upgraded our FY24 EBITDA forecast on better gross margins and operating efficiencies. Recent contract wins provide upsell potential and the recent John Lewis contract renewal highlights the stickiness of the technology.

Checkit - Trading on track in tough environment
Checkit made good progress in H124, growing annual recurring revenue (ARR) by 24% y-o-y and revenue by 19% y-o-y. Net revenue retention of 113% highlights the company’s ability to cross-sell and upsell, and the recent contract renewal with John Lewis and master service agreement with Compass provide further expansion opportunities. We maintain our forecasts.

Checkit - Adapting growth strategy to market conditions
Over the last few years, Checkit has evolved its business to a subscription-based revenue model and adapted its operations to drive and support growth. Providing intelligent operations software for deskless workers, Checkit is focused on driving adoption of its software by large, multinational enterprises. Recent contract wins and upsells in the US show progress towards the target of generating the majority of annualised recurring revenue (ARR) in the US.

Checkit - Land-and-expand focus paying off
Having completed its transition to a subscription-based revenue model during the year, Checkit grew recurring revenue by 41% and total revenue by 22% in FY23. Year-end annual recurring revenue (ARR) was 28% higher y-o-y as the company successfully executed on its land-and-expand strategy. As flagged last year, the focus on accelerating profitability has slowed cash consumption. Management anticipates meeting current market expectations for FY24; our FY24 forecasts are substantially unchanged ...

Checkit - FY23 ARR ahead of expectations
Checkit’s FY23 trading update confirmed that year-end annual recurring revenue (ARR), FY23 reported revenue and year-end net cash beat our forecasts. ARR increased 28% y-o-y despite the challenging economic environment, as the company made good progress signing up new customers and expanding existing contracts. With 93% recurring revenue for continuing operations, the transition to a subscription-based model is complete. We will review our forecasts following FY23 results on 27 April.

Checkit - Moderating costs to accelerate breakeven
During H123 Checkit made further progress in its transition to a 100% subscription business, achieving 82% recurring revenue and a 48% y-o-y increase in annual recurring revenue (ARR). The pipeline has grown and includes material opportunities with enterprise customers for which conversion timing is uncertain. As customers have become more cautious, sales cycles have lengthened, and we conservatively reduce our ARR and revenue forecasts. Despite this, we have improved our EBITDA loss forecasts f...

Checkit - ARR growth in a more cautious market
Despite a challenging market environment, Checkit has grown annualised recurring revenue (ARR) by 48% y-o-y to £10.2m at the end of H123 and looks on track to meet our FY23 forecasts. Having made the strategic decision to focus on its platform for deskless workers, Checkit’s H123 recurring revenue grew 44% to make up 82% of total revenue. The company plans to accelerate its path to profitability; we maintain our forecasts pending further detail on these plans.

Checkit - Growth strategy on track
Checkit made good progress during FY22 with its strategy to transition to a pure SaaS business. Annualised recurring revenue (ARR) grew 44% y-o-y, helped by new customer wins and expansion of existing contracts, with recurring revenue reaching 75% of total revenue in Q422 compared to 51% for the full year. Management expects to meet market expectations for FY23; our FY23 forecasts are substantially unchanged and we introduce FY24 forecasts that factor in ARR growth of 32%.
