STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2024
The principal activity of the company is that of a SaaS company that develops software and offers cloud-based subscriptions to our online platform, consultancy, support and training services to its customers around the world.
The company has continued to see excellent year on year total revenue growth of 21% (2023: 29%), made up of a 24% increase in subscription revenue, and 53% decrease in professional services revenue and other revenue, comprising mainly of intercompany revenue.
The company saw an impressive change in its net profit margin from prior year which was driven by an upside of subscription service and reduction in costs. The net profit margin is 8% (2023: negative 20%). The reduction in costs during the period was mainly driven by the following factors:
∙Following the acquisition by Thoma Bravo in June 2022, in the year ended 31 January 2023, the company made an exceptional one-off payment in the form of Cash Replacement Awards which replaced all Share Options and RSUs. The remaining unvested equity-based awards were converted into the right to receive cash payments, subject to employee performance and vesting conditions.
∙To help drive business efficiencies, thereby minimising costs, in the latter part of 2023 the company moved part of its R&D function to overseas.
∙The company continues to invest in the business and drive for process efficiency where possible.
The company has reported an operating profit before tax of £26.4m (2023: £49.2m loss), of which £nil (2023: £36m) were Cash Replacement Awards payments to Anaplan Limited employees. These were exceptional expenditure in the fiscal year.
The cash reserves of the company continue to be very strong, and the directors are satisfied with the overall performance of the company and its bright outlook for the future as we continue to see further product launches and an ever growing product roadmap.
Economic risk
The principal risk to the business is the health of the SaaS market and state of the wider economy. As SaaS and ‘the Cloud’ is becoming widely accepted around the world, this is generating significant growth in the market. In particular, the need for fast, agile planning and decision-making being of great importance at present, should only help the company to continue to grow at a healthy pace. The market is affected by a number of factors such as the economic performance and stability of the region generally. Foreign exchange risk The company is exposed in its trading operations to the risk of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Due to the company’s growth, this is now seen as a significant risk but as the company both buys and sells within Europe and outside, the risk is mitigated to an extent. The treasury team is constantly reviewing the foreign exchange fluctuations and acting accordingly. The main foreign currencies in which the company operates are the Euro and US dollar.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2024
Management monitors the performance of the business by reference to internal budgets and industry averages. These indicators are considered sufficient to provide an overview of business performance relative to expectations and market trends.
There are no other key performance indicators for the company.
The directors of the company, as with those of all UK companies, must act in accordance with a set of general duties. These duties are detailed in section 172 of the UK Companies Act 2006 which is summarised as follows:
A director of a company must act in the way they consider, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the success of the company for the benefit of its shareholders as a whole and, in doing so have regard (amongst other matters) to:
∙The interest of the company’s employees and culture;
∙The desirability of the company maintaining a reputation for high standards of business conduct;
∙The need to maintain the company’s business relationships with suppliers, customers and other external stakeholders;
∙The likely consequences of any decisions in the long term; and
∙The impact of the company’s operations on the community and environment.
As part of their introduction, a director is briefed on their duties and they can access professional advice on these, either from the company secretary or, if they judge it necessary, from an independent advisor. The following paragraphs summarise how the directors fulfil their key duties:
Employees, culture and values
At Anaplan, our values are key to everything we do. We call it I. Act. Real. Our values are - Innovative, Accountable, Collaborative, Transparent, Resilient, Empathetic and Authentic. At Anaplan these values come to life by making employees feel empowered and inspired. Building a strong culture around company values is an ongoing journey that will continue to be the core of our existence. Anaplan thrives on diversity, inclusion and belonging where all people are respected and valued regardless of gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity, age, neurodiversity, disability status, citizenship, or any other aspect which makes people unique. Anaplan wants you to bring your true self to work every day.

STRATEGIC REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2024
Our strategy prioritises organic growth with an equal focus given to landing new customers while also expanding our product offering/use cases with existing customers within other areas of their organisation. The Anaplan Platform helps you dynamically orchestrate performance enterprise-wide and convert constant change to your advantage.
We’re proud to partner with many of the world’s leading experts to bring digital transformation to our customers. Our partners are essential to meeting the extraordinary customer demand we are seeing for Connected Planning. Highly-skilled partners who truly understand a customer’s challenges and know how to use Anaplan to solve those pain-points can make a huge difference in the marketplace. We value all of our suppliers and have many multi-year contracts with our key suppliers.
Risk Managment
In many cases we provide business critical services to our customers. As we continue to grow, our business and our risk environment also becomes more complex. It is therefore vital that we effectively identify, evaluate, manage and mitigate the risks we face, and that we continue to evolve our approach to risk management.
Community and environment
At Anaplan, we believe it’s very important to give back to the local community, as such all employees get three paid volunteering days per year to go and help support a charity or cause they feel passionate about. The company also closely considers its impact on the environment when making decisions.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ANAPLAN LIMITED
We have audited the financial statements of Anaplan Limited (the 'Company') for the year ended 31 January 2024, which comprise the Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council's Ethical Standard and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ANAPLAN LIMITED (CONTINUED)
The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our Auditors' Report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the Annual Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the Strategic Report and the Directors' Report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Directors' Report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF ANAPLAN LIMITED (CONTINUED)
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an Auditors' Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Our assessment of the susceptibility of the entity's financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur, is considered to be low. This conclusion was reached after consideration of the following:
∙a clear segregation between senior management, finance management and operations staff resulting in a high level of review control;
∙a high level of review of key performance and similar indicators;
∙a high level of informed management within senior and finance management;
∙the general absence of individuals with opportunity and authority to override controls undetected; and
∙a high level of long service, experience and trust within key finance management.
We designed our audit procedures to respond to identified audit risks, including non-compliance with laws and regulations (irregularities) that are material to the financial statements. Some of the specific procedures performed to detect irregularities, including fraud, are detailed below:
∙review of control accounts and journal entries for large, unusual or unauthorised entries;
∙analytical review of the detailed profit and loss account for variances that are either unexpected or felt not to be in accordance with our understanding of the business during the year;
∙obtaining and reviewing for completeness a list of entities and persons considered to be related parties (as defined by Financial Reporting Standard 102) and reviewing the ledgers of the Company for previously unreported related party transactions;
∙review of transactions and journals for any indication of fraud or management override; and
∙consideration of the going concern basis to ensure correct application and no fundamental irregularity in the presentation of the financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Auditors' Report.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
For the purposes of assessing whether 'going concern' is an appropriate basis for preparing the financial statements, the directors have reviewed projections for the next 12 months and applied assumptions which the directors consider to be appropriate to the current financial position of the Company with regards to revenue, cost of sales, expenses and forward cash.
During the year ended 31 January 2024 the company reported a profit after taxation of £82,370,393 (2023: loss of £49,915,650). During the year the company continued to invest heavily in product features and company infrastructure in order to lay the groundwork for future increased revenue growth. The company expects to continue to be profitable while continuing to maintain strong cash reserves. At the balance sheet date the company had net assets of £21,911,262 (2023: net liabilities of £60,459,131). Included within creditors, amounts falling due within one year, are amounts owed to the parent company and fellow subsidiary undertakings totaling £66,993,937 (note 17). The parent company has provided the company with an undertaking that they will, for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements, continue to make available such funds that are needed by the company and in particular will not seek repayment of the amounts currently made available whilst the company strengthens its own financial position. In light of the above and after taking into account all information that could reasonably be expected to be available, the directors are confident that the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and that the going concern basis is therefore appropriate for the preparation of the company's financial statements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2024
2.Accounting policies (continued)
All intangible assets are considered to have a finite useful life. If a reliable estimate of the useful life cannot be made, the useful life shall not exceed ten years.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at their transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at their amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company's cash and cash equivalents, trade and most other receivables due with the operating cycle fall into this category of financial instruments.

2.Accounting policies (continued)
The fair value of the award also takes into account non-vesting conditions. These are either factors beyond the control of either party (such as a target based on an index) or factors which are within the control of one or other of the parties (such as the Company keeping the scheme open or the employee maintaining any contributions required by the scheme). Where the terms and conditions of options are modified before they vest, the increase in the fair value of the options, measured immediately before and after the modification, is also charged to profit or loss over the remaining vesting period. Where equity instruments are granted to persons other than employees, profit or loss is charged with fair value of goods and services received.

Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the year in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that year or in the year of revision and future years if the revision affects both current and future years.
