ISX Financial EU Plc, a Europe-centric payment provider, closed the third quarter of 2023 with a revenue of more than €7.3 million. Although the figure declined by 2 percent quarter-over-quarter, it increased by about 11 percent year-over-year. It also generated €33,724 from other sources of income.

According to the unaudited figures published, the company’s unaudited profit came in at €1.5 million, 54 percent higher than the previous quarter and 69 percent from a similar quarter of the last year. Its EBITDA margin came in at 24 percent.

After taxes, the net profit stood at €785,479, which is an increase of 88 percent quarter-over-quarte and 139 percent year-over-year.

The strong profitability was achieved as the company significantly controlled its expenses despite the revenue rise. It spent €5.58 million between July and September, which remained the same compared to the third quarter of 2022 but declined 12 percent from Q2 2023. It also invested €2 million in research and development this year.

“We are well on track to reach our goal of achieving €30 million in revenue by the end of 2023 and maintain our EBITDA/profitability margin within 20-30%,” the unaudited quarterly financial report stated. In 2022, the company generated a profit of €3.7 million on a revenue of €27.4 million.

Moving Towards Public Listing

Meanwhile, the company seeks to reorganize its assets under a new holding company, ISX Plc. The move came with plans of an initial public offering (IPO) or a direct listing of the holding company. Earlier, the company was suspended from the Australian stock exchange, an alleged an ‘unfair’ move for which the company sought damages from the exchange.

“Shareholders will retain their holdings in direct proportion to their existing holdings. This allows the group to reorganize its operating companies and financial reporting lines on a geographic basis, consistent with our prudential supervisory and taxation reporting obligations,” the company stated.

“The ‘top hat’ process of inserting a holding company above will be via a court-supervised scheme of arrangement, and subject to a shareholder vote at [a] general meeting,” it added. Although the company approached the Australian financial markets regulator with details of the Court supervised ‘top hat’ scheme, the approval process has been a “slow and laborious process.”
