Conferize A/S releases the Annual Report for 2018

Today, the Board of Conferize A/S has approved the revised annual report for 2018.

Summary

The past year has gone completely according to the Company's strategy. At the end of November 2018, the Company launched the latest generation of the Event Management Software (EMS) platform. The first indications suggest that the market is adopting the new product very well. Throughout 2018, the Company has experienced a large growth in new users. At the end of 2018, there were more than 13,000 event organizers on the platform, a growth of almost 200 % in 2018.

The Company continues to follow a strategy of undercutting the market to achieve high growth and promote the product. In line with this strategy the Company has realized a deficit of DKK 7.1 million.
The deficit can primarily be attributed to the development of the Company's latest generation of the EMS platform and the marketing activities during the year. Given the Company's strategy, revenue is still insignificant. Management believes that the Company will establish a positive cash flow at the end of 2021, cf. the Company's commercial strategy.

At the end of 2018, cash and cash equivalents in the Company were DKK 9.7 million. In line with the Company's plans at the IPO in June 2017, the Company will have to raise capital during 2019. With the investment agreement up to DKK 75 million over the next 3 years with the international fund GEM and the plans for a follow-on-public offering in 2019, the management's assessment is that the necessary funding will be provided, why the accounts have been presented with continued operation in mind.

The Board of Directors and the management of Conferize A/S consider the Company's operations and development in 2018 to be satisfactory.

CEO, Martin Ferro-Thomsen says: "2018 has been a fantastic year. We have launched a completely new product unparalleled, which now has to really release the potential of the business case. We have experienced a massive growth in users and organizers - and with the latest steps in relation to funding, the future looks really exciting."

On Conferize
Conferize is a digital platform for event organizers and attendees. Too many events and conferences are still planned and realized following a template from a time when the world was still analog. This means that the attendees benefit too little in terms of networking, knowledge sharing and participation, and organizers struggle with old-fashioned and incomplete products, ultimately resulting in a bad experience for the attendees.

Conferize solves this fundamental problem by offering a comprehensive solution that makes it easy for the organizer and creates greater value for the attendees - before, during and after the event. At the same time, Conferize connects users and content in a global network of events, providing an overview of an otherwise fragmented industry. Conferize has been used by thousands of events in more than 140 countries and has been official partner for TEDx since 2014.
