MANAGEMENT COMMENTS
John McKimm, President/CEO of SEB states:
"SEB's acquisition program continues to deliver positive results. The Company now has a geographic footprint across Canada, and in the UAE, India and Australia. The business base has been established for strong organic growth. Contracted backlog and expected renewals exceed $360.0 million, up from approximately $25.0 million at November 2014. The SEB group employs approximately 850 people globally, one third employees and the rest are contractors. Over $30 million has been spent over the past four years on the acquisition and development of software solutions, and hosting infrastructures, and acquiring core companies.
The acquisition of Maplesoft is expected to increase the consolidated annual revenue of SEB by over $50 million, contributes substantially to the overall profitability, and increases sales backlog and renewals by over $280 million. The acquisition of Maplesoft will build on our previous technology acquisitions (Somos Consulting Group Ltd., Logitek Technology Ltd., Inforica Inc., Stroma Service Consulting Inc., APS -Antian Professional Services Inc. and Paradigm Consulting Group Inc.), and will establish SEB as a leading Canadian company in the Cyber/IT Security, Information Management, IT Infrastructure Management, Data Centre Management, Project Management and Professional Services sectors, capable of delivering a broad portfolio of services and solutions to government and corporate clients, with specialty practices in healthcare and benefits processing solutions.
Transactions in the acquisition and joint venture pipeline for 2016 are well advanced. The cost structure of the acquisitions continues to be optimized through cost reduction initiatives. The cost structure has been permanently reduced in the past 90 days by over $1.4 million, annualized, largely due to restructuring of the senior management team in both the Technology and Benefits Divisions. This has positioned the Company to emphasize growth initiatives in the Benefits Division for 2016. SEB has now reached the point where Management expects significant, ongoing, positive EBITDA from continuing operations."
