ASX announcement

28 July 2022

Audinate FY22 preliminary unaudited results

Key FY22 unaudited results

  • Unaudited revenue of US$33.4 million, up 33.4% (A$46.3 million)

  • Gross profit margin of 74.7% (compared to 76% in FY21)

  • Expected EBITDA A$3.8 – A$4.3 million (compared to A$3.0 million in FY21)

Audinate Group Limited (ASX:AD8), developer of the professional AV-industry-leading Dante® media networking solution, provides the following update.

Better than expected chip supplies in late Q4 resulted in a strong finish to FY22. As a result, Audinate recorded unaudited revenue of US$33.4 million, up 33.4% from US$25 million in the prior year. Favourable USD currency variances meant that in Australian dollars unaudited revenue was $46.3 million, up 38.7% from $33.4 million in FY21.

Improved chip supplies allowed unmet demand from 3Q22 to be delivered in 4Q22. In addition, some 1Q23 demand was able to be delivered early. Gross profit margin remained within expectations despite cost pressures from spot inventory purchases. Consequently, Audinate currently expects EBITDA for FY22 to be in the range of $3.8 million to $4.3 million.

Audinate Co-founder and CEO Aidan Williams commented:

“It is particularly satisfying to have delivered very strong revenue growth, despite a challenging operating environment over the last twelve months. Supply chain disruption and general economic uncertainty are expected to remain a feature through FY23, and we continue to operate on a cautious and prudent footing. We look forward to providing a full run-down of the FY22 results and expectations for the year ahead when we release our financial results at the end of August.”

The Company intends to host a webinar via Zoom to discuss its FY22 results at 9.30am (AEST) on 22[nd] August 2022. The webinar is expected to last approximately 45 minutes inclusive of question time. Please register in advance for this webinar:
