AD1 Business Update and Appendix 4C
Melbourne, Australia, 29 April 2020: AD1 Holdings Limited (ASX: AD1) ( AD1 or the Company ), the provider of customer branded recruitment technology platforms, utilities software billing services and management platforms and related services, today released its business update and the Appendix 4C for March 2020 quarter.
Key March 2020 Quarter Highlights & Business Update
-
Cash receipts from customers for the March 2020 quarter were $854,000 with a further $254,000 collected in the first week of April 2020 relating to contract wins from the March 2020 quarter.
-
Operating outflows reduced by $619,000 (down 32%) compared to the December 2019 quarter. As communicated in the previous quarterly update, the March 2020 quarter represents the full benefit of the cost optimisation program undertaken in 2019.
-
Near operating break-even March 2020 quarter with net cash outflows of $76,000 as a result of consistent cash receipts, the significant benefit from the cost optimisation along with the R&D refund of approximately $400,000.
-
Progress of contract wins previously announced:
-
✓ The managed services solution for iGeno Pty Ltd, an embedded networks operator went live in early April 2020 and is now revenue generating.
-
✓ Completed the functionality enhancements to our mobile app and the new integrations from NSW Health and Transport for NSW into the iworkforNSW platform.
-
✓ Completed the functionality enhancements to the mobile app under the MyPharmacyCareer solution for the Pharmacy Guild.
-
New contract wins:
-
AD1 is working closely with both the NSW and Victorian Governments assisting with their efforts to promote their jobs, and in particular additional jobs for NSW related to COVID19. This is resulting in a pipeline of works across both Governments that are expected to be delivered in the current quarter.
-
The Company is also assisting its existing utilities-retailer customer base better support the end consumers through the COVID-19 outbreak. This is also resulting in a pipeline of works for the June 2020 quarter.
-
New business opportunities relating to Company’s utilities software offering are experiencing some delay following the outbreak of COVID-19 and restrictions imposed by both Federal and State Governments. The timing of new business opportunities is expected to be offset somewhat with the pipeline of works from existing customers.
-
Despite the challenges presented by the current environment, the Company maintains its outlook that the June 2020 quarter will be the Company’s first cashflow positive quarter. This expectation is based on the strength of our existing customer base, the current pipeline of works and the significantly reduced cost base.
Impact of COVID-19 and business outlook:
Following the outbreak of COVID-19 and restrictions imposed by Federal and State authorities, the Company and its management have diligently assessed the potential impact and proactively put in place the necessary arrangements to ensure the continuity of its business operations.
Seamless service delivery to our customers whist ensuring the health and safety of all our staff is our highest priority. In addition to complying with the guidelines recommended by the health authorities on hygiene and social distancing, the Company enabled all staff to work remotely in the early stages of the outbreak and has maintained its services without any disruptions. The benefit of cloud-hosting all of our solutions also enables our platforms to continue operating with no impact.
Accordingly, other than some delay in receiving payments, our existing customer base has not been materially impacted by the pandemic and continues to provide a steady revenue stream. However, the Company is experiencing some delay in both converting late-stage opportunities and progressing new prospects as a result of the slowdown from the COVID-19 related restrictions.
Notwithstanding the slowdown, the Company expects the June 2020 quarter to be its first cashflow positive quarter with FY2021 projected to be breakeven on a full year basis.
As at 31 March 2020, the Company had a closing cash balance of $240,000 and debtors balance of $432,000 – out of which $325,000 has been received prior to this release.
The Company acknowledges that the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business and the overall economy remains unknown at this stage. However, as previously communicated, the Board will consider available non-dilutive funding alternatives should there be a requirement to manage any short-term timing impacts to the cashflow. The Company continues to monitor the status of COVID-19 and its impact on our business and will inform the market accordingly.
END
This release has been authorised by the directors of the Company.
