SEB Smart Employee Benefits Inc

Smart Employee Benefits Inc., (“SEB” or “the Company”) (TSXV:SEB, OTCQB:SEBFF), announces 3 new contract wins for fiscal year 2022 in Canada and USA. Collectively, the IT budgets for these entities are hundreds of millions of dollars annually, and SEB has vendor status to bid on the delivery of IT solutions and services.

The software/solution wins have a minimum value in excess of $5.7 million. The Professional Services wins are over $70.8 million, including $33.1 million of option years. All contract wins are multiyear recurring revenue contracts with terms between 2 and 11 years.

The Company has also added 3 new “Vendor Management Agreements” authorizing the Company to supply ITS software, solutions and services for the 3 entities. These contracts give the Company the approval to participate in the IT budgets that exceed an estimated $40.0 million annually. The arrangements have terms up to 5 years, which typically are renewed once achieving approved vendor status.

“Following a strong 2021 for contract wins, SEB’s new contract wins in 2022 remain strong,” said SEB CEO John McKimm. “Typically, our contracts take several months to deploy, and although we will realize some revenue in 2022, the full revenue and profitability of these new contract wins won’t flow-through our results until 2023. Furthermore, these new wins add to our large base of recurring revenue, which is currently over 90% of our contracted revenue. Additionally, the MarvalNA solutions contribute to our growing base of business in the USA. Our pipeline of sales opportunities in both Canada and USA remains very robust for 2022. We expect substantial continued growth as the year evolves. Our RFP win rate continues to be over 65%, which is inline with what we experienced in 2021 and substantially higher than years prior.”
