STRATEGIC AIMS

Grow revenue, grow margins & get closer to our customers

Evolving products into software & cloud services

Atomos currently generates almost all its revenue via one-off product sales. FY23 will see the addition of software and cloud services as well as its traditional products being sold directly to customers

Revenue growth

The introduction of subscriptions for device software and cloud services will bring recurring revenue streams

Growing margins

Direct-to consumer sales will yield much - improved product margins and when combined with the naturally high margins from recurring revenue products will result in improved overall margins

Get closer to our customers

A more direct engagement with our end customers will enable greater insight into how they use our products and how we can better meet their needs with software improvements and future products. This will allow us to more effectively use our product development and marketing resources.

  • • • Start to address new product categories (e.g. Grow direct revenue (cloud & software audio) subscriptions, eCommerce device sales) & achieve ARR target of $6m by end of FY24

  • • Starting to quantify our total addressable •

  • markets and use this as a basis for articulating Continue to grow distribution channel sales opportunities and measuring success • Grow EBITDA % well into the teens

Group strategy & outlook

DIRECT SALES

eCommerce

  • Sell device products via

  • eCommerce

  • Well considered strategy in place to not disrupt current sales channel revenue

  • Innovative deferred payments plans to reduce friction for purchase

  • All connected device sales will be bundled with cloud services subscription

  • Introduction of device software subscriptions. Devices ship with attractive base features, bug-fix updates at no cost, but no feature upgrades are available until paid for.

  • Software subscriptions will unlock access to all device software upgrades: e.g. H265 recording, enhanced monitoring features, NDI

Reach New Customers

Targeted marketing and low-friction redirection to “buy now” button to target customers we can’t currently reach

Better margins

High-margin sales of software and cloud services, combined with better margins for direct-toconsumer sales of devices and opportunity to bundle accessories at checkout will help improve profits

Build subscription revenue

All connected devices sold via eCommerce include a cloud services subscription as well as new device software subscriptions to accelerate take-up

Direct relationship with customers Having a direct relationship with more of our end customers will allow Atomos to deliver better products and services which directly meet their needs

  • Head of Manufacturing and Supply Chain to be hired to continue and lead the good work around supply chain and production strategy

  • Relaunch Atomos website when eCommerce goes live to provide a better customer experience, making it easier to find the right Atomos products and purchase them

  • Bring online Malaysian manufacturing capability. Reducing exposure to China and eliminate China import tariffs into the US

Build management team

Fill gaps in senior management team: Chief Commercial Officer, Chief Product Officer

Right-size the business

Conduct company-wide organization review to make sure we have the right team to execute our plans

Supply chain optimisations

Reduce inventory exposure by rationalizing component use. Sharing components across a broader range of products reduces the need to carry large inventory and reduces supply-chain exposure

Diversify manufacturing footprint Bring online manufacturing capability in Malaysia
