Commentary on activities during the quarter ending 30 September 2013

  • Cash
    outflow
    for
    the
    quarter
    was $1.6m ,
    which
    was
    at
    the
    lower
    end
    of
    our
    guidance
    range of
    $1.5M
    to
    $1.8M.

  • Cash
    at
    bank
    as
    at
    30
    September
    2013
    is
    $7.5M.

  • Cash
    receipts
    from Adslot products
    were
    up
    5%
    over
    the
    previous
    quarter,
    with
    increases
    in Adslot
    Publisher
    and
    Adslot
    Create
    receipts
    being
    offset
    by
    reductions
    in
    Adslot
    Enterprise receipts.

  • Adslot’s
    strategy
    to
    build
    liquidity
    by
    growing
    a
    diverse
    catalogue
    of
    publishers
    (supply),
    then making
    this
    available
    to
    demand
    at
    scale
    (media
    agencies),
    remains
    on
    track.

  • In
    September
    2013
    the
    company
    made
    a
    beta
    release
    of
    its
    marketplace
    product, Adslot Media ,
    followed
    by
    a
    global
    launch
    on
    22
    October

  • Sales
    and
    marketing
    of Adslot Media to
    media
    agencies
    has
    now
    commenced.

  • The
    company
    re-­‐iterates
    that
    it
    anticipates
    it
    will
    take
    a
    further
    1
    to
    2
    quarters
    to
    drive
    initial adoption
    of
    the
    platform
    by
    media
    agency
    buyers.

  • Cash
    receipts
    for
    the Webfirm division
    were
    down
    5%
    quarter-­‐on-­‐quarter.

  • Total
    Group
    costs
    were
    in
    line
    with
    management
    expectations,
    with
    increases
    in
    marketing and
    sales
    costs
    in
    support
    of
    the
    launch
    of
    Adslot
    Media,
    albeit
    at
    the
    bottom
    end
    of
    the range
    reflecting
    a
    conservative
    management
    of
    expenditure.

  • We
    anticipate
    underlying
    net
    cash
    outflows
    to
    remain
    for
    the
    next
    few
    quarters,
    with
    the underlying
    net
    operating
    cash
    outflows
    for
    the
    next
    two
    quarters
    to
    be
    in
    the
    vicinity
    of $1.6M
    to
    $1.8M
    per
    quarter.

  • The
    $1.6M
    to
    $1.8M
    per
    quarter
    excludes
    a
    cash
    receipt
    of
    approximately
    $1.1M
    from
    the Research
    &
    Development
    Tax
    Incentive
    relating
    to
    FY
    2013,
    which
    we
    expect
    to
    receive
    by January
    2014,
    and
    also
    excludes
    transaction
    costs
    that
    would
    arise
    if
    the
    Scheme
    of Arrangement
    with
    Facilitate
    Digital
    Holdings
    Limited
    is
    completed
    at
    the
    end
    of
    the
    calendar year.
