-
Residential revenue increased by 84% for the year and Business revenue by 83%.
-
Gross margin improved through shift to higher margin, high speed plans and the capping of CVC costs through to January 2021. Further contribution from termination of low/no margin ADSL services in September 2020.
-
Employee expenses increased modestly lower than revenue increase. Operating leverage mitigated by the increase in middle management staff and additional roles and skill sets related to becoming a listed entity.
-
Marketing expenses were $26.3m for the year, with $16.6m in the second half.
-
Administration costs increased at a lower rate than revenue but include costs associated with being a listed entity.
-
Depreciation and amortisation increased as network infrastructure was upgraded.
-
Interest expenses included interest associated with the convertible note.
-
The Group has incurred a current tax charge of $654k and a deferred tax benefit of $314k. The tax charge arose due to the convertible note related costs being capital in nature from a tax perspective, and restrictions on the use of the brought forward tax losses in the current period due to the "available fraction" mechanics.

The company will continue to provide quarterly market updates in a similar format to the 4Q FY21 market update. Management will hold an investor call following each quarterly market release including a Q&A session.

Investors should also be aware that certain financial data included in this presentation including EBITDA and measures described as “pro forma”, are “non-IFRS financial information” under ASX Regulatory Guide 230 (Disclosing non-IFRS financial information). The non-IFRS financial information financial measures do not have a standardised meaning prescribed by Australian International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies, nor should they be construed as an alternative to other financial measures determined in accordance with AIFRS. Investors are cautioned, therefore, not to place undue reliance on any non-IFRS financial measures included in this presentation.
Future performance
Forward-looking statements are statements about matters that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places in this presentation and include statements regarding ABB’s intent, belief or current expectations with respect to business and operations, market conditions, results of operations and financial conditions, including, without limitation, forecasted economic indicators and performance metric outcomes. This presentation contains words such as ‘will’, ‘may’, ‘expect’, ‘indicative’, ‘intend’, ‘seek’, ‘would’, ‘should’, ‘could’, ‘continue’, ‘plan’, ‘probability’, ‘risk’, ‘forecast’, ‘likely’, ‘estimate’, ‘anticipate’, ‘believe’, or similar words to identify forward-looking statements. Indications of, and guidance or outlook on, future earnings or financial position or performance are also forward-looking statements. These forwardlooking statements reflect ABB’s current views with respect to future events and are subject to change, certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are, in many instances, beyond the control of ABB, and have been made based upon ABB’s expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on ABB. There can be no assurance that future developments will be in accordance with ABB’s expectations. A number of important factors could cause ABB’s actual results to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements, including but not limited to, general economic conditions in Australia and other jurisdictions in which ABB or its related bodies corporate operate; exchange rates; competition in the markets in which ABB will operate, the inherent regulatory risks in the businesses of ABB and the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. Assumptions on which forward-looking statements in this presentation are based may or may not prove to be correct and there can be no assurance that actual outcomes will not differ materially from these statements.
None of the Associated Persons nor any other person referred to in this presentation makes any representation as to the accuracy or likelihood of fulfilment of the forward-looking statements or any of the assumptions upon which they are based. When relying on forward-looking statements to make decisions with respect to ABB, investors and others should carefully consider such factors and other uncertainties and events. ABB is under no obligation to update any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation, as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date of this presentation. As such, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statement.
Past performance information given in this presentation is given for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily a guide to future performance and no representation or warranty is made by any person as to the likelihood or achievement or reasonableness of any forward-looking statements.
