New Customer Win by Key Partner

- Significant enterprise end-customer win -

- MRR of GBP70,000 -

Outsourcery (AIM: OUT), a world-leading Cloud Services Provider ("CSP") that helps organisations of any size to reduce costs, increase productivity and work better, is pleased to announce a contract win with a significant new end-customer via one of its key partners.

The first significant contract win by a key partner has a five year term and during which time it is expected to deliver at least GBP70,000 in monthly recurring revenue (MRR) or GBP840,000 annually once fully deployed. We expect MRR to reach approximately GBP10,000 by the year-end with full roll out expected during Q1 2015. The opportunity exists to further grow this figure, in time, should the end-customer choose to exploit additional services. A one-off and non-recurring revenue item of approximately GBP40,000 for the design and integration phase of the contract is expected to be recognised over the next few months.

The solution roll-out will include an initial mix of Lync instant messaging and presence as well as enterprise voice services, with a plan to migrate all users from traditional telephony to enterprise voice services over time.

The Lync solution is being deployed as the primary unified communications toolset for the end-customer, supporting front and back office functions, with the ultimate aim of providing improved communication and collaboration capabilities across the organisation. Outsourcery and its partner have provided an innovative hybrid cloud solution enabling integration with existing solutions that forms part of a wider service delivery relationship with the partner.

Commenting on the win, Outsourcery Co-Chief Executive Piers Linney said:

"We are extremely pleased with this significant deal which validates our strategy, our investment and the ability of our partner-model to convert material enterprise opportunities. Being able to work with our partners to provide such solutions further reinforces our position as the UK leader in the delivery of cloud-based Microsoft unified communications and our potential for growth.

There is a significant revenue opportunity ahead as the Microsoft business installed base moves to the cloud with new services such as Lync creating new and disruptive market opportunities. We have a growing visibility of pipeline for such enterprise deals as well as mid-market deals across our strategic partner network which is key for us in generating a strong recurring revenue stream."
