Quarterly Update

Cash Generation with New Major Contract Win

Key Highlights

  • Building the pipeline: Revenue backlog at 31 December 2021 of $54M, consistent with the prior period. Backlog expected to grow by more than 60% in Q3 upon contract execution of the Viva Energy Diesel Tank project (c$40M).

  • Significant upcoming industry contracts: Brockman well positioned to secure additional BADSP contracts following recent wins with Viva Energy and Ampol. A further $450M of new BADSP tank construction contracts are expected to be awarded prior to 31 December 2022.

  • Tender activity remains strong: Syfon tender activity increasing as Australian and Asian communities return to normal lifestyles reenergising the building investment cycle. TSF Power experiencing increasing demand for hybrid power generation solutions as the market shifts to a carbon neutral future.

  • Cash flow positive and ongoing debt reduction: Positive operating cash flow of $750k in Q2. Net cash balance at 31 December 2021 was $3.0M, cash on hand $3.9M. Debt reduction of $0.3M during the quarter. Total term debt balance of $0.9M at 31 December 2021 planned reduction to zero balance by 30 September 2022.

GENERAL BUSINESS

In the second quarter of FY22, EVZ delivered a solid operating performance with new contract wins to position the group for profit growth from 2HFY22. The business commenced an investment phase in additional new talent and management resources to prepare for revenue growth and increasing workload from recently successful tenders and negotiated contracts.

We remain confident in the industry outlook in the liquid fuels, building construction and gas energy sectors forecast to rebound driving revenue growth in the remainder of FY22 and FY23.

BROCKMAN ENGINEERING

Brockman recently secured a letter of intent from Viva Energy for three new 30ML diesel tanks at the Geelong refinery with the expected total contract value to be circa $40M.

Brockman were also appointed by Ampol for the design phase of two further 30ML diesel tanks at their Newport Terminal which are expected to convert to a design and construction contract in 4QFY22 with the expected contract value of circa $15M.

Quarterly Update

Tendering activity increased significantly during the quarter as the first group of federal governments “Boosting Australia’s Diesel Storage Program” (BADSP) grant supported construction contracts were awarded.

The BADSP grant funding injection by the Federal Government will support more than $520M of new capital investment in bulk diesel storage in Australia. The capital investment will comprise new large diesel storage tanks and associated infrastructure in the ten selected locations.

The Australian bulk fuel tank construction industry comprises three players who will competitively bid for these works for delivery in FY22, FY23 and FY24. It is forecast that revenues in industry from the BADSP will increase by more than 60% during these years. It is expected that $450M of BADSP contracts will be awarded in the tank construction industry before 31 December 2022.

Brockman is well positioned to secure a share of these contracts and remain available for further contract wins from our current client base in the liquid fuels, gas and water sectors

SYFON SYSTEMS

Syfon Systems delivered a consistently strong performance in the second quarter. The outlook remains positive for the remainder of FY22 and beyond as the worldwide economy returns to business as usual.

Syfon in Asia has also returned to full capacity as the major Asian markets respond to increased demand for our services for new large infrastructure and building developments in Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Vietnam.

The Light City, Penang – Syfon Systems project

The mid term and long term outlook in Asia is positive for 2HFY22 and we expect activity levels to increase further in FY23.

Work in hand remains at historically high levels supporting growth in future periods.

TSF POWER

TSF Power service workload and parts sales have grown consistently in recent months with the demand for renewable gas energy continuing to rise as the economy demands more options to manage the impact of climate change. Customer demand for our technical support and our value for money offering is rising as we seek to grow our expertise footprint to more locations across Australia and New Zealand.

As the power industry shifts emphasis to a carbon zero future our offering of hybrid renewable power generation solutions and distributed power generation solutions with integrated operational support will deliver value as the market expands.

BALANCE SHEET

The group made term debt reductions of $300,000 in the second quarter, reducing term debt to $900,000. Net assets have increased to $25.0M.

Current asset and current liability balances remained stable during the quarter as trading stabilised across our network of projects. Improved operating environments across the Australian and Asian markets in 2HFY22 and FY23 will provide further opportunities for organic growth through new large contract wins. We are also assessing and pursuing strategic acquisitions in our sectors to expand the scale of our operations.
