Insights

Alarum Technologies' Q2 2024 results demonstrate strong growth and improved profitability. Key highlights include:

  • Record revenues of $8.9 million in Q2, up 27% year-over-year
  • NetNut revenue growth of 74% to $8.7 million
  • Improved gross margin of 76.9%
  • Positive H1 2024 net profit of $1.1 million
  • Strong cash position of $21.6 million

The company's focus on enterprise internet access through NetNut is paying off, with impressive customer acquisition and retention metrics. However, Q3 guidance suggests potential short-term challenges, with revenue expected to dip slightly to $7 million ±3%. This warrants close monitoring of market dynamics affecting customers.

Alarum's performance in the data collection market is noteworthy. The company is expanding its customer base, including a Fortune 100 client and showing strong customer retention with a Net Retention Rate of 1.59. New customer onboarding is particularly impressive, with $400,000 generated in the first month of activity in Q2, 60% higher than Q1.

The company's move into AI and data labeling markets with Web-Unblocker shows foresight, as these are high-growth areas. However, investors should watch for potential market saturation and increased competition in the IP Proxy Network segment. The projected Q3 slowdown may indicate market volatility or seasonal effects that require further analysis.

Alarum's technological advancements are important for its growth strategy. The company has significantly expanded its network infrastructure, enabling it to handle higher traffic and support larger customers. This scalability is essential for capturing market share in the competitive data collection industry.

The development of Web-Unblocker and AI data collection products shows Alarum's commitment to innovation. These offerings could provide a competitive edge and open new revenue streams. However, the tech landscape is rapidly evolving and Alarum must continue to invest in R&D to stay ahead. The company's ability to integrate AI capabilities into its data products will be a key factor in maintaining its technological advantage and driving future growth.

Concludes strong first half of 2024 with record revenues of $17.3 million, progressing profitability metrics,
solid cash generation and $21.6 million in cash and equivalents

TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alarum Technologies Ltd. (Nasdaq, TASE: ALAR) (“Alarum” or the “Company”), a global provider of internet access and web data collection solutions, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. 

“Today we announced the results of yet another strong record-breaking quarter, marking the first year since we announced our shift to focusing on Enterprise Internet Access through our NetNut data collection product line,” said Mr. Shachar Daniel, Chief Executive Officer of Alarum. “As we intend to establish the broadest data collection and insights offering in the market, we continued to increase our market share in the IP Proxy Network (IPPN) segment, won initial sales in the data collection and labelling market with our new Web-Unblocker and continued to make progress towards providing our customers with artificial intelligence (AI) and analysis capabilities. Our cash balance positions us well to invest in prospects that will provide the foundation for sustained growth.”

Mr. Daniel concluded: “Looking into the third quarter of 2024, I am extremely proud that NetNut revenues are expected to surpass the full year 2023 revenue-bar within the first three quarters of 2024. The market we operate in is an ever evolving and nascent market and as we continue to expand our customer base, enhance our offerings and grow the business we may experience some short-term variances. In the third quarter of 2024, we estimate continued year-over-year growth. While third quarter revenues are assumed to be impacted by market dynamics that some of our customers have been experiencing since June, our main growth KPIs are positive: consistent growth in the monthly revenue rates from June to July and into August. We evaluate the value created by new customers over their lifecycle. Our new customer-indicator shows enhanced growth in the second quarter compared to the first quarter, and to the last four quarters’ average. Furthermore, we will maintain strong net customer retention rates in the third quarter, in line with our growth strategy and strong balance sheet. These are all clear indicators of the strength and resilience of our business, as Alarum is in it for the long run.”

Second Quarter and First Half 2024 Financial Analysis

 ●Revenues grew 27% year-over-year to a Company record $8.9 million in Q2 2024 (Q2 2023: $7.0 million). The increase is attributed to the growth of the enterprise internet access business, NetNut, which increased to $8.7 million in Q2 2024, up from $5.0 million in Q2 2023. H1 2024 revenues increased to a record $17.3 million (H1 2023: $12.7 million). NetNut’s revenues reached a record $16.7 million in H1 2024, achieving 99% year-over-year growth (H1 2023: $8.4 million).
  
 ●Operating expenses totaled $4.2 million (Q2 2023: $12.8 million), and H1 2024 operating expenses totaled $8.1 million (H1 2023: $17.0 million). The quarterly and six-month year-over-year decrease resulted mainly from impairment of goodwill and intangible assets following the Company’s shift to enterprise internet access (NetNut) from consumer internet access (CyberKick). In addition, CyberKick’s operation expenses were reduced, while NetNut’s operation expenses increased in line with its growth.
  
 ●Finance expenses in Q2 2024 were $2.5 million (Q2 2023: finance income of $0.3 million), and approximately $3.4 million in H1 2024 (H1 2023: financial income of $0.1 million). The year-over-year differences were mainly from expenses resulting from the fair value increase of derivative financial instruments (warrants issued in 2019 to 2020) due to the increase in the Company’s share price. The increase was partially offset by interest income on short-term bank deposits.

Income tax expenses totaled $0.8 million in H1 2024 (H1 2023: tax benefit of $0.2 million), following the first-time NetNut was profitable for tax purposes.
  
H1 2024 cash flow from operating activities reached $6.3 million (H1 2023: $(0.1) million).
  
As of June 30, 2024, shareholders’ equity totaled $20.4 million, compared to $6.1 million as of June 30, 2023, and $13.2 million as of December 31, 2023. The increase was driven by the H1 2024 net profit as well as warrants and options exercises.
  
Outstanding ordinary share count as of June 30, 2024, was approximately 68.4 million, or 6.8 million in ADSs.
  

Financial Outlook

We anticipate Q3 2024 revenue to demonstrate year-over-year growth, and in fact, NetNut revenues are expected to cross the full-year 2023 revenue-bar of $21.2 million within the first nine months of 2024. Q3 2024 revenues are estimated at $7 million ±3% and Adjusted EBITDA for Q3 2024 is expected to range from $0.8 to $1.0 million.”

The Company’s management believes the non-IFRS financial information provided in this press release is useful to investors’ understanding and assessment of the Company’s ongoing operations. Management also uses both IFRS and non-IFRS information in evaluating and operating its business internally, and as such deemed it important to provide this information to investors. The non-IFRS financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with IFRS, and the financial results calculated in accordance with IFRS and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of these non-IFRS measures to their most directly comparable IFRS financial measures provided in the financial statement tables herein.

Other Metrics

Net retention rate (NRR) represents the average growth rates for the preceding four quarters compared to the equivalent period a year earlier, of current customers only, without the revenues generated from new customers, but including up-sales and cross-sales on one hand and churn on the other hand. NRR greater than 1.00 indicates that the Company experiences revenue growth from its existing customer base in the specific period even after accounting for lost revenue due to customers’ churn. Conversely, an NRR lower than 1.00 suggests that the Company loses revenue from existing customers in the specific period due to churn which is higher than revenue gain through up-sells or cross-sells.
