ActiveOps
plc
("ActiveOps", the "Company" or the "Group")
New Customer Wins and Senior
Leadership Appointment
Nine new logos secured so
far in FY25, supporting a continued positive trading
performance
New
Business Momentum
ActiveOps plc (AIM: AOM), a leading
provider of Decision Intelligence software for service operations,
is pleased to report strong momentum in new business wins to date
in the second half of the year ending 31 March 2025 ("H2 FY25"). Six new customers have been
signed so far in H2 FY25, bringing total new logos won in the year
to date to nine, versus three in FY24. The initial scope of the new
contracts supports existing consensus market
expectations* and each of the contracts has further
exciting global expansion potential, in line with the Company's
Land & Expand growth strategy.
The new logo wins are across North
America, APAC and EMEIA and follow the Board's decision to invest
in the Group's international sales teams. Customer acquisition in
North America has been particularly pleasing, with further growth
potential in the region supported by a healthy new business
pipeline.
The new customers secured include
blue-chip banks, BPOs and an international healthcare insurance
provider, with several adopting ControliQ Series 4, the most
advanced iteration of the ControliQ platform, providing access to
the latest AI and ML capabilities.
Senior Leadership Appointment
The Group is pleased to announce the
appointment of Paul Maguire to its Senior Leadership Team as Group
Managing Director, a non-Board position. With over 30 years working
in the enterprise software industry and 20 years of executive
leadership responsibilities, Paul has a proven track record of
scaling enterprise software businesses globally, to achieve
consistent and sustainable growth. Most recently Paul was Senior
Vice President and Managing Director APAC & EMEA for Coupa, a
leading Business Spend Management platform and was previously
Senior Vice President and Managing Director APAC, EMEA & LATAM
for Appian, a leading platform for process orchestration,
automation and intelligence.
ActiveOps Executive Chair, Richard Jeffery,
commented:
"It is pleasing to report on the strong new business
momentum we have seen around all our territories so far this year.
These wins, alongside our sustained expansion performance, are a
clear example of the need for our solutions as large enterprises
continue to invest in technologies that boost efficiency and
improve employee satisfaction.
"I
am delighted to welcome Paul to the Senior Leadership Team, he is
joining us at an exciting time and his experience and track-record
of success will help further drive ActiveOps' growth and
development.
"While enterprise sales cycles remain elongated, our
performance so far this financial year gives us confidence that the
strategic decisions we have taken to invest in our product,
positioning and sales teams mean we are well placed to continue to
build on our achievements."
