Steady recurring digital processing revenue growth
Unifiedpost’s recurring digital processing, its core revenue, in 2023 grew by 13,2% to €124,8 million based on constant exchange rates and by 10,7% based on current rates. The Company continues to experience consistent double-digit expansion. Strong growth was observed in key markets such as Benelux, the Baltics and the Balkans in 2023, with other countries also showing promising growth trends.
93,8% of Unifiedpost Group’s total year-to-date revenue is recurring, highlighting the Company’s strong and consistent revenue stream.
The non-recurring digital processing revenue decreased by 17,5% y/y. Projects for corporates in this segment performed well in 2023, achieving a growth rate of 7,9% compared to the previous year. The revenue from licenses was lower due to delayed decisions coming from postponed legislations. However, this revenue is anticipated to materialise in the future.
Improved contributions and operational challenges
In 2023, the digital business segment showed an improvement in contribution, with a €6 million increase compared to 2022. This growth was achieved through a combination of revenue expansion and effective cost management practices. The contribution from the Postage & Parcel Optimisation segment remained relatively stable, experiencing only a marginal decrease of €0,1 million.
During 2022 and 2023, the Company diligently pursued cost reduction initiatives, yielding favourable results. These efforts were impacted by inflation and wage indexation. Additionally, two one-time elements influenced the outcome: firstly, the Company decided to put all non-core applications in maintenance and expense all Research and Development (R&D) of those, resulting in a negative impact on costs in 2023 without any cash implications. Secondly, there were one-time costs totalling €2 million, primarily attributed to lay-offs and consulting fees related to divestment activities.
Impairment result
[INSIDE INFORMATION] It was determined that an impairment of €39 million is necessary, this is a non-cash event. This impairment test was influenced by two key factors. Firstly, there was a rise in the cost of capital due to increased interest rates, impacting our financial calculations. Secondly, the future business plans faced setbacks due to delays in the legal requirement for e-invoicing, which forced the Company to make changes to our anticipated plans and forecasts.
Group’s operating and financial result
The Group’s loss from operations excluding the impairment improved by €3 million, from a loss of €29,9 million in 2022 to €26,9 million in 2023. In total, with the impairment of €39 million, the total loss from operations for 2023 amounted to €65,9 million. The financial costs, income tax and loss on equity method of the Group, which amounted to €17,2 million in 2023, resulted in a total loss of €83,1 million. Within these financial costs lies a non-cash expense related to Francisco Partners amounting to €10,8 million.
Unifiedpost continues investment in R&D for future growth
Unifiedpost recognises the importance of staying ahead in our dynamic market. To ensure our solutions remain innovative and competitive, we continue to invest in the development of our offerings. With a dedicated R&D team of 380 full-time employees at YE, Unifiedpost remains at the forefront of technological advancements. These investments not only keep our solutions cutting-edge but also position the Company for future growth.
Unifiedpost Group achieves positive cash flow momentum in 2023
Our focus on cash flow has yielded significant improvement in 2023. In 2022, the combined operational and investing cash flow resulted in a negative balance of €43,7 million. This has improved substantially in 2023, with just a €2,1 million negative result. Our financing activities resulted in a negative cash flow of €11,6 million during 2023. Overall, the Group realised a negative cash flow of €13,7 million for the year, excluding any divestments.
Starting the year with €40 million in cash, after accounting for cash flow results, we ended the year with €26,3 million in cash.
The Group successfully met its cash objective in the fourth quarter of 2023. The overall result for H2 still revealed a modest negative balance of €1,7 million (adjusted for restructuring costs). Thanks to the cost-cutting measures implemented over the past two years, we have positioned ourselves with a cost base that provides a solid foundation for future cash flow generation.
Streamlining operations for continued profitable and cash-flow positive growth
Throughout 2023, we have successfully reduced our workforce by 189 full-time equivalents (FTEs) through careful evaluation and optimisation of our organisational structure. The R&D team remains at the core with 380 FTE’s at YE, securing the future growth. Workforce reductions have been implemented without compromising the core development of our future-oriented services or the support we provide to our valued customers. Moving forward, we remain committed to optimising our workforce to better align with our strategic objectives.
The divestment of FitekIn/Onea, announced on August 1st, is still pending completion. However, we anticipate the closing to occur in the very near term. This transaction involves €7,2 million in cash. Additionally, we are actively exploring or working on other divestments to streamline the Group’s operations and refocus on core business activities. This initiative aims to enhance our strategic focus and drive sustainable growth.
Changes in Unifiedpost Group’s Board of Directors
Mr. Joost Uwents resigned from all his mandates within the Company, effective December 31, 2023, due to commitments arising from his other professional activities. Mr. Uwents served as a director on the Board of Directors, and his resignation has resulted in the cessation of his mandate, which will not be replaced at this point in time.
Additionally, Mr. Uwents held the position of Chairman of the Audit Committee. In light of his departure, Unifiedpost Group is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Philippe De Backer as a member of the Audit Committee.

First proof points of regulatory tailwind
The regulatory landscape in Europe is rapidly evolving, particularly with Belgium mandating e-invoicing from January 1, 2026. This development underscores the importance of preparing for upcoming changes in 2024 and 2025. Following Belgium’s implementation, France will implement e-invoicing requirements starting from 2026, with other countries like Germany and Spain to follow. These regulatory shifts are reshaping the business landscape, emphasising the need for digitalisation and compliance with evolving standards across European markets. The full EU-market had approximately 50 million SME’s and self-employed people that need to adapt the new way of working.

Appendix: regulatory developments in Q4 2023
In the past quarter Q4 2023, significant regulatory developments have unfolded across key European markets, including:
- Belgium: mandatory e-invoicing effective from January 1, 2026, marking a pivotal step towards digitalisation in the country’s business landscape.
- Germany: additional details regarding their plans for B2B e-invoicing have been provided, emphasising the use of XRechnung and ZUGFeRD formats. Implementation is expected to commence in January 2025, with mandatory e-invoicing for large companies starting from 2026.
- Croatia: plans are underway to implement mandatory B2B e-invoicing by 2026.
- France: updated timelines have been announced for the upcoming mandatory e-invoicing regulations. While the French Senate has approved a revised timetable for the implementation with a gradual roll-out starting from 1 July 2025, an amendment has been introduced by the government to restore the 2026 timing.
- Poland: the mandatory rollout of e-invoicing has been indefinitely postponed.
- The implementation of EU ‘ViDa’ e-invoicing and e-reporting has been delayed until at least 2030, allowing more time for preparations and adjustments.
