Who is YPB?

YPB Group Limited (ASX: YPB) is listed on the Australian Stock Exchange and has developed and sells a suite of physical, digital, and AI-based authentication technologies with a vast range of applications. Our solutions can easily authenticate a myriad of items, such as FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods) products, official identification documents,

pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, dairy products, tax stamps, transactions - and even people.

Our Vision:

Real protection for quality brands by bridging the physical to digital divide.

Our Mission:

To make it simple and inexpensive for brands to protect their consumers and engage with them.

Our solutions trigger engagement with consumers in a consented, costeffective, and direct manner. Our proprietary technologies utilise Bluetooth and/or smartphones to capture and analyse invaluable authentication data in our Connect™global dashboard, providing real-time, first-party, and worldwide market intelligence data. This actionable data enables brands to establish digital and direct marketing channels with their customers.

The markets YPB is targeting comprise many billions of items, and this number is growing rapidly, providing YPB with significant growth

opportunities for its authentication and consumer engagement technologies.
