The sales team, now augmented with additional sales resources, has focused towards securing larger, high-value contracts to sustain growth, while continuing to service the Company’s existing client base.
Operationally, the severe weather season placed substantial demands on the team, who rose to the challenge with exceptional performance. High volumes of alerts were issued, including over 300 hail alerts per day during peak periods. The operations team continue to ensure timely and accurate service delivery.
Future Developments
Aeeris is close to completing an exciting new development. This new system will allow Aeeris to enhance its current service offering. It also represents a game-changing technological advancement, enabling Aeeris to offer faster, more detailed services. This is expected to position Aeeris as a unique provider in Australia, opening untapped market opportunities, expanding the Company’s addressable market and enhancing shareholder value in the quarters to come.
Business Activities and Expenditures
Payments made to related parties during the quarter were directors’ fees and consultancy expenses. Some seasonal expenses have been incurred in the December quarter that have inflated our spending during the period, including seasonal data and weather costs, one off staff costs, insurance premiums, ISO registration, payroll tax, R&D and development; and compliance costs amounting to $250,316.
