ENDAVA ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2025 RESULTS

Q1 FY2025
3.5% Year on Year Revenue Increase to £195.1 million
5.2% Revenue Increase at Constant Currency
Diluted EPS £0.04 compared to £0.21 in the prior comparative period
Adjusted Diluted EPS £0.25 compared to £0.39 in the prior comparative period


London, U.K. – Endava plc (NYSE: DAVA) ("Endava" or the "Company"), a leading technology services company combining world-class engineering, industry expertise and a people-centric mindset, today announced results for the three months ended September 30, 2024, the first quarter of its 2025 fiscal year ("Q1 FY2025").

"We are pleased with our results for the first quarter of FY25 showing both year on year and quarter on quarter revenue growth. We believe our business is well set up for new growth areas whilst reducing our industry vertical concentration. Our focus on AI is establishing leading edge propositions to solve real business challenges and our acquisition of GalaxE has enhanced our core modernization capability, adding patented IP that provides clients with a more efficient and cost effective path to their new digital future. These capabilities give us access to larger, more complex transformation programmes, with a powerful proprietary set of accelerators, providing us with a compelling sales offering. Our focus on digital solutions, initially built around the core, is now extending directly into the core itself," said John Cotterell, Endava's CEO.

Revenue for Q1 FY2025 was £195.1 million, an increase of 3.5% compared to £188.4 million in the same period in the prior year.

Q1 FY2025
By industry vertical, 20% of revenue was generated from Payments, 17% from BCM, 9% from Insurance, 21% from TMT, 9% from Mobility, 12% from Healthcare, and 12% from Other in Q1 FY2025. This compares to 27% from Payments, 14% from BCM, 8% from Insurance, 23% from TMT, 11% from Mobility, 4% from Healthcare, and 13% from Other in the same period in the prior year.

OUTLOOK:
Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2025:
Endava expects revenue will be in the range of £195.0 million to £197.0 million, representing a constant currency revenue increase of between 8.5% and 9.5% on a year over year basis. Endava expects adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of £0.24 to £0.25 per share.
Full Fiscal Year 2025:
Endava expects revenue will be in the range of £800.0 million to £810.0 million, representing a constant currency revenue increase of between 10.0% and 11.5% on a year over year basis. Endava expects adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of £1.12 to £1.17 per share.
This above guidance for the second quarter and full fiscal year 2025 assumes the exchange rates on October 31, 2024 (when the exchange rate was 1 British Pound to 1.30 US Dollar and 1.19 Euro).
Endava is not able, at this time, to reconcile its expectations for the second quarter and full fiscal year 2025 for a rate of revenue growth or decline at constant currency or adjusted diluted EPS to their respective most directly comparable IFRS measures as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, reconciling items such as share-based compensation expense, amortisation of acquired intangible assets, foreign currency exchange losses / (gains), net, and fair value movement of contingent consideration, as applicable. Accordingly, a reconciliation is not available without unreasonable effort, although it is important to note that these factors could be material to Endava's results computed in accordance with IFRS.
The guidance provided above is forward-looking in nature. Actual results may differ materially. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.

Q1 FY2025
NON-IFRS FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
To supplement Endava’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows presented in accordance with IFRS, the Company uses non-IFRS measures of certain components of financial performance in this press release. These measures include revenue growth/(decline) rate at constant currency, adjusted profit before tax, adjusted profit for the period, adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted free cash flow.
Revenue growth/(decline) rate at constant currency is calculated by translating revenue from entities reporting in foreign currencies into British Pounds using the comparable foreign currency exchange rates from the prior period. For example, the average currency rates in effect for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023 were used to convert revenue for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2024 and the revenue for the comparable prior period.
Adjusted profit before tax ("Adjusted PBT") is defined as the Company’s profit before tax adjusted to exclude the impact of share-based compensation expense, amortisation of acquired intangible assets, realised and unrealised foreign currency exchange (gains)/losses, net, and fair value movement of contingent consideration, all of which are non-cash items except for realised foreign currency exchange (gains)/losses, net. Our Adjusted PBT margin is our Adjusted PBT as a percentage of our total revenue.
Adjusted profit for the period is defined as Adjusted PBT less the tax charge for the period adjusted for the tax impact of the adjustments to PBT.
Adjusted diluted EPS is defined as Adjusted profit for the period, divided by weighted average number of shares outstanding - diluted.
Adjusted free cash flow is the Company’s net cash from operating activities, plus grants received, less net purchases of non-current assets (tangible and intangible). Adjusted free cash flow is not intended to be a measure of residual cash available for management's discretionary use since it omits significant sources and uses of cash flow, including mandatory debt repayments and changes in working capital.
Management believes these measures help illustrate underlying trends in the Company's business and uses the measures to establish budgets and operational goals, communicated internally and externally, for managing the Company's business and evaluating its performance.

Q1 FY2025
Management also believes the presentation of its non-IFRS financial measures enhances an investor’s overall understanding of the Company’s historical financial performance. The presentation of the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with IFRS, and its non-IFRS measures may be different from non-IFRS measures used by other companies. Investors should review the reconciliation of the Company’s non-IFRS financial measures to the comparable IFRS financial measures included below, and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company’s business.
