Reorienting the strategy
In fact, the economic uncertainty caused by the war in Ukraine and escalating inflation have led the company to reorient its strategy, prioritizing organic growth (with the commercialization of these six AI solutions and those in the pipeline)as opposed to inorganic. This decision explains why the listed company has updated its business projections with a total revenue forecast of 3.9 million euros in 2022 and 8.2 million euros in 2023, which represents annual increases of more than 100%.
And all of this is favored by the highly dynamic and potential environment in which the Substrate AI business is developing, as the industry of B2B SaaS solutions with AI has grown by more than 500% in the last 7 years. and, according to the consulting firm Gartner, is worth some $172 billion a year. These systems represent 70% of all software systems used by organizations. Within this industry, AI services will be the fastest growing, with figures close to 30% over the next few years. This data means that the company is trading at 10 times 2022 sales when the historical average for its sector is 25 times and some companies in its environment are currently trading at 100 times sales.
