Cegedim posted consolidated third quarter revenues
up 5.7% as reported and 3.8% like for like(2) compared with the
same period in 2023. Revenues to end-September rose 5.9% as
reported and 4.3% like for like compared with 9M 2023. Marketing,
BPO, HR, and cloud businesses all delivered solid growth in the
third quarter. As expected, the Software & Services division
felt the impact of comparisons with Ségur public health investment
spending in 2023 and a slowdown in international sales owing to the
decision to refocus the Group’s UK doctor software activities on
Scotland.Analysis of business trends by

Revenues at Cegedim Santé grew 8.0% as reported in
the third quarter but fell 6.2% like for like. We did not fully
meet our 2024 goal of offsetting last year’s Ségur impact and
keeping like-for-like sales stable, but we are closing the gap with
each quarter. Reported growth figures include Visiodent as of March
1, 2024. Visiodent’s gradual transition to Cegedim Group products
for scheduling, databases, and so on is generating internal sales,
which do not appear in the consolidated scope.
Other French subsidiaries had a challenging
quarter, with revenues down 2.7%. We saw positive growth at our
insurance businesses, thanks to robust project-based sales, and in
HR, which is still getting a boost from its client diversification
strategy. Conversely, the €2 million in Ségur public health
investment subsidies we recorded in Q3 2023 made for a demanding
comparison in the pharmacy business, where equipment sales also
flagged after accelerating last year.
Internationally, revenues from software sales to
UK doctors declined, as expected, following the decision to refocus
the activity on Scotland.

Third-quarter growth in e-business, e-invoicing,
and digitized data exchanges was nearly flat, at -0.2%. Healthcare
flows offset a relative slowdown in the Invoicing & Procurement
segment, which last year enjoyed sustained growth in France ahead
of the e-invoicing reform scheduled to take effect July 1, 2024,
but which has since been postponed to September 2026.
The digital data flow business dealing with
reimbursement of healthcare payments in France (Third-party payer)
experienced 14.3% yoy growth in Q3. It was boosted by strong growth
in demand for its fraud and long-term illness detection
offerings.

Data business posted 3.4% yoy growth in the third
quarter, resulting in nearly stable growth over nine months. Growth
was led by French sales, which were more dynamic than international
sales.
The Marketing segment had a record third quarter,
up 38% owing to special ad campaigns during the Olympics. The
rising popularity of our phygital media offerings in pharmacies
helped the segment post 24.8% growth over the first nine
months.

The Insurance BPO business grew by more than 15.7%
over the third quarter, chiefly owing to its overflow business,
which has been flourishing since the start of the year. Growth over
nine months amounted to 24.2%, partly thanks to a favorable
comparison stemming from the April 1, 2023, launch of the Allianz
contract.
Business Services BPO (HR and digitalization)
continues to report strong growth, up 9.2% yoy over the quarter on
the back of a popular compliance offering and new clients.

Highlights
Apart from the items cited below, to the best of
the company’s knowledge, there were no events or changes during Q3
2024 that would materially alter the Group’s financial
situation.
• New financing
arrangement
On July 31, 2024, Cegedim
announced that it had secured a new financing arrangement
consisting of a €230 million syndicated loan. The arrangement is
split into €180 million of lines drawn upon closing to refinance
the Group’s existing debt (RCF and Euro PP, which were to mature in
October 2024 and October 2025 respectively) and an additional,
undrawn revolving credit facility (RCF) of €50 million. This new
financing arrangement will bolster the Group’s liquidity and extend
the maturity of its debt to, respectively, 5 years (€30 million,
payments every six months); 6 years (€60 million, repayable upon
maturity); and 7 years (€90 million, repayable upon maturity).
Significant transactions and events post
September 30, 2024
To the best of the company’s knowledge, there
were no post-closing events or changes after September 30, 2024,
that would materially alter the Group’s financial situation.
Outlook
Based on the currently available information,
the Group expects 2024 like-for-like revenue(1) growth to be
towards the lower end of the 5-8% range relative to 2023. That
said, we still expect recurring operating income to continue to
improve. These targets are not forecasts and may need to be revised
if there is a significant worsening of geopolitical, macroeconomic,
or currency risks.
