UPDATE ON INTEGRATION AND SYNERGIES
INTEGRATION PROCESS

▲ Overall responsibility for integration led by CFO and run
through Integration Management Office
▲ From 1 March 2018 the combined AVEVA Group began to
operate as one organisation with a new operating model
being codified and an Executive Leadership Team
appointed from key people in both merged businesses:
AVEVA IGNITE: Combined sales meeting
▲ April 2018 saw the combined AVEVA sales kick-off
▲ 500 sales people met in Dubai to learn about the new
business
▲ Immediate focus on cross selling
▲ Detailed value capture workstreams ongoing across all
main functions
© 2018 AVEVA Group plc and its subsidiaries. All rights reserved.
UPDATE ON INTEGRATION AND SYNERGIES
AVEVA aims to achieve value creation through sustainable revenue and margin growth
▲ Cost savings: Removal duplicated spend. £25m of annualised synergies expected by end FY2020, with a
moderate benefit in year 1. The exceptional cash costs associated with achieving these synergies are
expected to be approximately the same as the annualised saving
▲ Revenue initiatives: Cross selling and greater exploitation of the Schneider Electric sales channel, pricing
initiatives, contract optimisation, sales productivity
▲ Full product integration: Unified engineering around the asset lifecycle and integration of operational data
and visualisation technologies to serve the operational lifecycle

IMPACT OF IFRS 15 ACCOUNTING STANDARD
About IFRS 15
▲ The adoption of IFRS15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ will have implications for the revenue recognition
of software sales. Most notably, where software sales are on a ‘right to use’ basis, the license portion of the sales
contract is be required to be recognised at the time of delivery
About AVEVA contracts
▲ The AVEVA business sells software products on a number of license models that include Initial & Perpetual licenses,
Rental or term licenses and some Subscription licenses
▲ For Initial & Perpetual licenses, Support & Maintenance fees are charged separately. For Rental & subscription
licenses, Support & Maintenance fees are incorporated into the license fees charged
Impact on AVEVA numbers
▲ Generally, AVEVA’s Rental licenses are already recognised in line with IFRS 15. There will be some impact for the
way in which a few, large, multi-year customer Rental licenses are recognised
▲ Very little impact on the way in which Initial & Perpetual licenses are recognised
▲ Very little impact on recognition of Support & Maintenance fees
▲ No impact expected on AVEVA’s limited Subscription revenue
What to expect next
▲ AVEVA will report results for 6 months to 30 September 2018 under IFRS 15
