■ Micro Focus delivers mission-critical enterprise software which as such is essential for to our customers businesses
■ Business continuity plans have been thoroughly tested and are proving robust
■ We have more than 90% of our people working from home and supporting our customers effectively and are proud of the commitment and determination of our teams in making this transition as seamless as possible despite the challenges
■ Our primary focus remains the health and safety of our employees and delivering for our customers and partners
■ Since the lockdown, the Company has undertaken a pulse survey of all staff which had a record response rate and scores following the companies response to the pandemic
Micro Focus response to COVID
16
Trading update for H1 FY20
■ Expect to report revenue of $1.45bn for the first half (CCY decline of approximately 11%)
■ Consistent with original guidance and COVID-19 update 18 March 2020
■ The identifiable impact of Covid-19 is estimated to be at least 2% decline on revenues in the period
■ The Group identified a slowdown in customer buying behaviour in April 2020 leading to the deferral of specific projects involving new licence and services revenues, as well as delays to some maintenance renewals
■ Impact of revenue reduction at Adjusted EBITDA level has been largely mitigated
■ Driven by close management of variable and discretionary costs
■ Adjusted EBITDA margin (after IFRS 16) of approximately 38% in the period was towards the upper end of our expectations
■ Total available liquidity of $1.1bn including revolver at 30 April 2020
17
Potential financial impact of COVID-19
■ Micro Focus delivers mission-critical enterprise software to over 40,000 customers. The majority of our revenues are contractual and recurring in nature and the resilience this affords can be seen in the company’s ability to generate cash and manage costs to partly mitigate revenue weakness
■ Despite this resilience, the ultimate impact on the global economy remains unknown, as does the timing and extent to which that impact flows through into customer spending plans on enterprise software
■ As a minimum, we continue to believe it appropriate to be prepared for a level of disruption to our new sales activity and timing pressure on renewals
■ Similar to most companies, we have removed formal revenue guidance for FY20. In addition, we are evaluating the potential impact on the carrying value of our intangible assets and goodwill
■ The company has reacted quickly to ensure a balanced approach to mitigating the immediate risks whilst continuing to make progress on the actions taken as a result of the Strategic and Operational Review
■ The investments outlined as part of that review are broadly continuing as planned
■ Outside of these investments, mitigating actions including a hiring freeze in all but exceptional circumstances, as well as reductions in all discretionary spending, are now in place
■ The Group is prepared to implement further actions in reducing costs, in the event the pandemic has a prolonged impact on trading performance
18
Disciplined cash management
■ Operating cash balance at H1 of $0.63bn at H1 and available liquidity of $1.1bn including revolver
■ Cash balances increased by c. $270mm in the period, driven by effective working capital management and expenditure control
■ Cash conversion of well in excess of 100%
■ In addition to operating cash, the Group has drawn down $175mm of our $500mm revolving credit facility as a precautionary measure and placed this in accessible money market facilities in order to further increase liquidity
■ Board took decisive action to preserve liquidity in context of Covid-19, by withdrawing recommendation to pay FY19 final dividend
■ As publicly stated, the investment activities identified through the Strategic and Operational review result in a short-term increase in Pro-forma leverage (i.e. excluding IFRS 16 and consistent with previous reporting) of 3.3x

Full suite of products across critical IT infrastructure for corporates today
■ Supporting mission critical business processes, with balanced revenue generation across five product groups and over 300 business lines
■ Revenue declined 7.3% period-on-period on a CCY basis
for the twelve months to 31 October 2019.
■ Licence revenue decline of 7.2% in FY19 is less than the
FY18 decline of 12.8%.
■ Decline in maintenance revenue was impacted by one
off events including the disposal of Atalla and selling to
the US Government via a strategic partner rather than
direct. Restating for these two items maintenance
revenue decline would have been 4.7% (FY19 actual:
6.2%). See appendix 3 for further detail.
■ SaaS and other recurring and Consulting revenue
accounts for 2.6ppts of the overall decline.
■ Adjusted EBITDA margin increase of 2.0 ppt to 40.7% in
the twelve months ended 31 October 2019.
■ Diluted adjusted Earnings per share from continuing
operations of 195.89 cents - an increase of 4.5%
