Revenue update

RPMGlobal updated its total contracted value (TCV) and annual recurring revenue (ARR) derived from software subscriptions sold during the 2021 financial year.

The update included an extra $11.5 million of revenue that was not revealed in the company's half-year investor presentation, released in February 2021.

In February, the company advised that its current software subscription TVC was $14.5 million, whereas today the company confirmed it is actually $23.4 million. 

Further, RPMGlobal advised the company's ARR from software subscriptions was $15.8 million, when in actuality it was $18.4 million — a difference of $2.6 million.

Additionally, RPMGlobal stated it has not included another $4.1 million of contracted subscription revenue in the provided figures, as those subscriptions are able to be terminated anytime without a fee.

The company also noted it has closed $800,000 worth of perpetual software licenses since December 2020. A perpetual software licence is an agreement that allows a user access to a software indefinitely with a single payment.
