With overall revenue growth in excess of 15% (including organic growth of 4%) for the first nine months of the year, Axway is in line with its 2015 roadmap. Licenses (+5.3% organic growth) and maintenance (+4.8%) reflect the return to higher demand since the beginning of the year.
Digital transformation has become the main driver of this market demand and for Axway this has materialised as strong growth in API (Application Programming Interface) solutions. The first signatures combining these digital technologies with the more traditional infrastructure solutions (MFT and B2B) are also making an appearance.

(1) at constant exchange rates and scope of consolidation
The activity by geographical region for the first nine months of 2015 confirms that Axway continues to enjoy solid growth in France (including an outstanding third quarter for licenses) and is performing satisfactorily in Europe overall. Asia/Pacific saw a marked increase in its business (+27.3%), in particular regarding API offers. Business in the US remained stable over the cumulative nine-month period. Third quarter performance has no particular significance for this region which directs all its efforts at preparing for the final quarter, a decisive period particularly in terms of licenses.
Financial situation
Axway’s financial situation remains robust. The company's cash position at the end of 2015 is still forecast to be between €25 million and €30 million with bank borrowing at approximately €5 million, excluding the impact of any mergers or acquisitions.
Prospects
The group's entire focus is on building up the fourth quarter which is a key opportunity for its licence business (traditionally over 40% of annual licenses). At this point in time, its commercial portfolio and active business volume point to encouraging prospects for the year-end and, should this materialise, satisfactory results for the whole of the 2015 financial year.
