By attending an investor presentation or briefing, or accepting, accessing or reviewing this document you acknowledge and agree to the terms set out above and on the next page.

Past Performance

Past performance detailed in this presentation is given for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as an indication of the Company’s views on its future financial performance or condition. Readers should note that past performance of the Company, including the historical trading price of the Company’s shares, cannot be relied upon as an indicator of (and provides no guidance as to) future performance, including the future trading price of the Company’s shares.

Future Performance

Past performance information provided in this document may not be a reliable indication of future performance. This document contains certain forward looking statements and comments about future events. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, significant uncertainties, assumptions, contingencies, and other factors, many of which are outside the control of Audinate, are subject to change without notice, and may involve significant elements of subjective judgement and assumptions as to future events which may or may not be correct, and which may cause the actual results or performance of Audinate to be materially different from any results or performance expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such forwardlooking statements speak only as of the date of this document. Forward looking statements should not be relied on as an indication or guarantee of future performance. No representation, warranty or undertaking is made that any projection, forecast, assumption or estimate contained in this document should or will be achieved.

Financial Data

All financial information in this presentation is in Australian Dollars ($ or AUD) unless otherwise stated.

Investors should be aware that certain financial measures included in this presentation are ‘non-IFRS financial information’ under ASIC Regulatory Guide 230: ‘Disclosing non-IFRS financial information’ published by ASIC and and are not recognised under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The principal non-IFRS financial measure that is referred to in this presentation is EBITDA. EBITDA is earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation and significant items. Management uses EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of the business and each operating segment prior to the impact of significant items, the non-cash impact of depreciation and amortisation and interest and tax charges, which are significantly impacted by the historical capital structure and historical capital structure and historical tax position of Audinate. Other non-IFRS financial measures that may be used in the presentation include gross margin and net operating free cash flow.

The Company believes the non-IFRS financial information provides useful information to users in measuring the financial performance and conditions of the Company. The non-IFRS financial information do not have a standardised meaning prescribed by IFRS. Therefore, the non-IFRS financial information is not a measure of financial performance, liquidity or value under the IFRS and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other entities, and should not be construed as an alternative to other financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS. Investors are cautioned, therefore, not to place undue reliance on any non-IFRS financial information included in this presentation.

Recipients must conduct their own independent investigation, evaluation and analysis of the matters and data set out in this document, and rely entirely on such investigation and analysis. Recipients must form their own opinion as to whether or not to enter into any arrangements with Audinate. Audinate disclaims any obligation or undertaking to disseminate any updates or revisions to any forward looking statements in this document to reflect any change in expectations in relation to any forward looking statements or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.

Risks

This Section describes some of the potential material risks associated with Audinate’s business, the industry in which Audinate operates and the risks associated with an investment in Shares. Audinate is subject to a number of risks, both specific to the Company’s business activities and of a general nature, which may either individually or in combination adversely impact Audinate’s future operating and financial performance, investment returns and the value of Audinate’s Shares. The occurrence or consequences of some of the risks described here are partially or completely outside of Audinate’s control, or the control of Audinate’s Directors and Management.

This Section does not purport to list every risk that may be associated with Audinate’s business or the industry in which Audinate operates, or an investment in Shares, now or in the future and there is no guarantee or assurance that the risks will not change or that other risks or matters that may adversely affect Audinate will not emerge. Any of these risks, or any other risks or other matters, may emerge and may have a material adverse effect on the business and its financial position and performance.

Risks

General Risks

Share Price and Volume Fluctuations

Audinate, as a publicly listed company on the ASX, is subject to general market risks applicable to all securities listed on a stock exchange. This may result in fluctuations in the share price that are not explained by the performance of Audinate. The price at which shares are quoted on the ASX may increase or decrease due to a number of factors, some of which may not relate directly or indirectly to Audinate’s performance or prospects. These factors may cause the shares to trade at prices below the Capital Raising price. There is no assurance that the price of the shares will increase, even if Audinate’s earnings increase.

Some of the factors which may affect the price of Audinate shares include:

  • fluctuations in the domestic and international markets for listed stocks;

Specific Risks

Launch of new products

The development schedule for new products may take longer than forecast, delaying the development of new revenue streams. New third party technologies could prove more advanced and be developed in less time than Audinate’s new products. In addition, Audinate expects that over time software revenue will contribute a greater proportion of Audinate’s total revenue. There is a risk that Audinate’s software and services may not be well received by its customers or Audinate may not be able to generate sufficient adoption of its software by end users .

Tariffs and duties

  • general economic conditions, including interest rates, inflation rates, exchange rates, commodity and oil prices or changes to government;

  • fiscal, monetary or regulatory policies, legislation or regulation;

  • inclusion in or removal from market indices;

  • the nature of the markets in which Audinate operates;

  • general operational and business risks;

  • variations in sector performance, which can lead to investors exiting one sector to prefer another; and

  • initiatives by other sector participants which may lead to investors switching from one stock to another.

The introduction of new or increased trading tariffs, import or export duties or other trade restrictions may affect Audinate’s competitiveness in, and limit its access to, particular markets. In particular, if the United States government extends the scope of tariffs on the importation of goods from China into the United States, this could result in margin pressure for Audinate and decreased demand in the United States for OEM products manufactured in China.

Sell-down by Existing Shareholders

There is a risk that existing substantial shareholders may seek to sell-down their shareholding in Audinate. A significant sale of shares or a perception that a sell-down may occur could adversely affect the price of Audinate shares.

Deterioration of general economic conditions may also affect Audinate’s business operations, and the consequent returns from an investment in shares.

General Economic and Financial Market Conditions

The operating and financial performance of Audinate is influenced by a variety of general domestic and global economic and business conditions that are outside the control of Audinate. There is a risk that prolonged deterioration in general economic conditions may negatively impact the demand for Audinate’s products and negatively impact Audinate’s financial performance, financial position, cash flows, dividends, growth prospects and share price.

Risks

Specific Risks (continued)

Competition risk

Audinate competes against other audio networking companies. Some of Audinate’s existing and potential competitors may have significantly more resources than Audinate does and this may enable them to increase their market share. In addition, Audinate’s OEM customers may also decide to develop their own networking technology solutions in-house or Audinate may fail to anticipate and respond to changing opportunities, technology, standards or customer requirements as quickly as competitors. If any of these risks arise, Audinate may compete less effectively against Audinate’s competitors and it could reduce Audinate’s market share and ability to secure existing or new business which would have an adverse impact on Audinate’s operating and financial performance.

Industry Standardisation

There is currently a minimal level of industry standardisation across the AV industry. There is a risk that future industry standardisation across the AV industry could disrupt and adversely affect Audinate’s business. If Audinate does not continue to innovate, such standardisation has the potential to commoditise Audinate’s products and could result in reduced margins and have an adverse effect on Audinate’s operations and financial performance.

Protection of intellectual property

The value of Audinate’s products is dependent on Audinate’s ability to protect intellectual property, including business processes and know-how, copyrights and trademarks. There is a risk that Audinate may be unable to detect the unauthorised use of its intellectual property rights in all instances. Further, actions Audinate takes to protect its intellectual property may be costly, and may not be adequate or enforceable and thus may not prevent the misappropriation of its intellectual property and proprietary information. Audinate’s failure to protect its intellectual property rights could have an adverse impact on Audinate’s operations and financial performance.

Ability to attract and retain key personnel

The Group’s continued success depends on being able to hire and retain highly skilled and experienced employees in the technical and development teams. Failure to do so may adversely affect Audinate’s ability to develop products or implement its business strategies, which may adversely affect its future financial performance.

Supply chain disruption risk

Audinate sells chips and printed circuit board modules which incorporate its software. These devices are manufactured or supplied by third parties. A disruption to supply of these components or the manufacturing of these devices could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to generate revenue while the disruption or delays remain in place. If the disruptions were prolonged and another third party supplier or manufacturer could not be sourced, this could have a material adverse effect on Audinate’s ability to continue to grow the business.

Failure to retain existing customers and attract new customers

The success of Audinate’s business relies on the ability to retain existing customers, attract new business from existing customers as well as attract new customers. If customers do not continue to use Audinate’s products and increase their usage over time, and if new customers do not choose to use Audinate’s products, the growth in Audinate’s revenue may slow, or Audinate’s revenue may decline, which will have an adverse impact on Audinate’s operating and financial performance.

Failure to realise benefits from product development costs

Developing technology is expensive and the investment in the development of these product offerings often involves an extended period of time to achieve a return on investment. Audinate may not, however receive significant revenues from these investments for several years, or may not realise such benefits at all.

Reliance on key customers

A significant proportion of Audinate’s revenue is currently derived from Audinate’s largest customer, Yamaha Corporation. If Audinate’s relationship with Yamaha or any of its other major customers deteriorates, or should any of these major customers default or terminate their agreements with Audinate, or merely not order products from Audinate, then Audinate’s business and financial condition could be adversely impacted.
