Business Strategy

In addition to implementing board and management enhancements, the Company’s Strategic Review has identified four primary objectives:

  1. Continue to divest non-core assets

  2. Streamline business with focus on AI and Cyber Security

  3. Target business development activity towards SME market in the defence industry supply chain

  4. Optimise the Company Structure

In alignment with our Investor Presentation released on the ASX platform on April 15, 2024, the Company is actively reviewing its non-core activities. Our aim is to diversify or divest these activities when they do not align with our vision, redirecting resources to areas that offer to deliver shareholder value.

Our renewed strategy, leveraging insights gained from our experiences in data centres and managed IT services, is already yielding positive results. Under the Board leadership, these learnings are being applied to unique opportunities in the artificial intelligence and cybersecurity sectors. The Company is continuously looking for opportunities to develop its AI capabilities through internal development, collaboration and acquisitions.

To enable and enhance this strategic shift, it is essential to optimise the Company’s structure and rationalise the costs base including reducing debt, removing unproductive expenses and realigning performance of senior management.

The Board is confident that focussing on AI and Cyber Security will have a positive impact on the Company's future.

Corporate Advisor

Sandton Capital Advisory, a boutique corporate advisory firm, has been appointed to advise and assist the Board on the Strategic Review outcomes including execution of the key findings, and will be paid a fee of $7,500 per month over a 12 month term. Sandton Capital Advisory brings a wealth of experience in technology ventures including in AI and semiconductors establishing a network of resources, facilities, technology and access to AI and technology specialists.

Mr Shane Wee said: “We are excited to work with Sandton and leverage their deep industry knowledge and proven track record of creating value and driving business growth.”
