Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], February 15 (ANI/PNN): Leading Fintech firm, IRIS Business Services Limited has reported an improved financial performance for the nine-month period ending in December 31, 2022 compared with the corresponding period for the previous year.
While the topline grew at 22 per cent for the nine-month period, the Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) did even better, increasing by as much as 42 per cent. For the third quarter, the revenue growth was at 14 per cent over the corresponding period a year ago, with the EBITDA moving up by 13 per cent as well. Profit After Tax for the nine-month period stood at Rs 270 lakhs compared to Rs 18 lakhs in the corresponding period.
"This quarter was significant from a business point of view as well", said Company Founder and Director, Deepta Rangarajan. "IRIS Carbon, our SaaS reporting platform, soft launched its Disclosure Management module in Europe and we are happy to note that early customers have signed up. We now plan to roll out this module in the multiple geographies where we are present. We see significant upselling possibilities through this offering", she added.
"Our regulatory reporting platform business, 'Collect', is poised to see an uptick in the order book as well, Company Founder and CFO, K. Balachandran stated. "We are encouraged by the recent award of a Letter of Intent to IRIS by the Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan towards the implementation of a Data Warehousing and Analytics Platform".
For the nine-month reporting period while revenues increased by 22 per cent, expenses moved up by 19 per cent, while for the third quarter both revenues and expenses grew pretty much at the same pace. Balachandran attributed this to higher spending on sales and marketing activities combined with increased outgo towards employee expenses. "In our "Create" side of the business, which is essentially enterprise SaaS, customer acquisition would increasingly need higher spends", he noted.
