in revenues derived from transactions, which now accounts for 54% of FDV’s total portfolio revenue, increasing from 49% in 1Q 2021 (100% basis).
1Q 2022 results further proves the durability of the core online marketplace model since listing on the ASX in 2016 and more recently, the opportunity to facilitate transactions. Over this period, FDV has achieved a revenue compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 50% and quarter-on-quarter revenue growth in 20 out of 23 quarters. This record has been achieved despite the many external disruptions typical of emerging markets, such as recent political unrest in Pakistan and Sri Lanka. This demonstrates the robustness of the core online marketplace model, the opportunity to facilitate transactions, and the benefits of diversification across FDV’s carefully constructed portfolio, underpinned by our management team with a proven track record.

TRANSACTION MODEL UPDATE
In 1Q 2022, FDV made significant progress in its strategy of augmenting the market leadership positions of their online marketplaces with high growth transaction-based revenue. Notably, a considerable milestone was reached with all operating companies now capable of facilitating transactions, with a total of 4,324 transactions completed, an increase of 60% on pcp.
In 1Q 2022, FDV made a number of targeted investments to further accelerate the transactional capabilities of the operating companies, with a primary focus on FDV LATAM. The investments to drive growth were designed to take advantage of our market leadership positions in a challenging operating environment for our competitors. These investments consisted of increases in advertising and marketing costs, as well as employee costs, to accelerate transaction volumes and revenues in 2022 and beyond. These short-term increases in spending are detailed in item 1.2 of the Appendix 4C.
OPERATIONAL UPDATES
FDV LATAM - 53% of 1Q 2022 revenue (FDV % share basis)
FDV LATAM continues to be a significant contributor to FDV’s overall portfolio, with 1Q 2022 revenue of A$10.8m, increasing 59% on pcp (100% basis). Following a number of strategic acquisitions and portfolio optimisation activities that occurred in late 2020 and throughout 2021, FDV now owns 100% of FDV LATAM operating companies, providing significant strategic value and monetisation optionality. During the quarter, FDV made a number of targeted investment across FDV LATAM to further accelerate the transactional capabilities of the region.
InfoCasas, the leading property marketplace in Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia with a growing presence in Peru, recorded 1Q 2022 revenue of A$3.9m, increasing 108% on pcp (100% basis). The marketplace continued its consecutive quarters of positive operational performance, with EBITDA of A$144k (100% basis). In 1Q 2022, property transaction volumes were 249, increasing 49% on pcp, demonstrating the rapid growth of the transaction business underpinned by InfoCasas’ highly scalable proprietary technology platform.
Encuentra24, the leading online marketplace across 5 key Central American markets, recorded revenue of A$2.3m in 1Q 2022, increasing 14% on pcp. Notably, Encuentra24 recorded EBITDA of A$42k, representing a significant increase of A$152k on pcp and its third consecutive EBITDA positive quarter (100% basis). Following FDV’s increase in ownership to 100% (see ASX release ‘Increase in Enceuntra24 ownership and capital raising’, 17 December 2021), Enceuntra24 has seen continued traction in its Consumer-to-Consumer transaction initiatives, recording 204 transactions during the quarter. The Company has leveraged learnings from its successful consumer transactions as it focuses on the high value property vertical, resulting in the facilitation of 3 real estate transactions during the quarter. The marketplace has a strong pipeline of property projects in its pipeline, providing a pathway to significantly enhance its revenue trajectory.
Yapo, the leading online marketplace in Chile with number 1 position across the high value auto and property verticals, recorded a significant revenue result of A$2.3m in 1Q 2022, an increase of 162% on pcp (100% basis). The Company’s considerable operational progress is illustrated by Yapo’s third consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA of A$37k, an increase of A$165k on pcp (100% basis). Notably, this result was achieved while Yapo undertook significant optimisation of its website, Yapo.cl, which improves the consumer experience, introduces new advertising products for customers and provides

the foundation to further accelerate the facilitation of real estate and auto transactions. During the quarter, Yapo faciliated both property and auto transactions for the first time, completing 2 and 27 for the quarter respectively. The Company continues to conduct trials with developers for new housing projects as Yapo leverages its market leading position to expand its transactional capabilities in the high-value property vertical.
Fincaraíz, the leading property marketplace in Colombia, recorded revenue of A$2.2m in 1Q 2022, an increase of 12% on pcp, and EBITDA of A$0.1m (100% basis). The Company has seen significant traction in the volume of transactions during the quarter, having completed 20 property transactions in February alone, compared with 37 throughout the entirety of 2021. With a number of property projects in the pipeline, Fincaraíz is well placed to accelerate transactions in 2022.
FDV Asia - 36% of 1Q 2022 revenue (FDV % share basis)
FDV Asia recorded strong revenue of A$23.3m in 1Q 2022 (100% basis), increasing 57% on pcp, and positive EBITDA of A$3.1m (100% basis) led by strong performances by Zameen, PakWheels and AutoDeal.
Zameen, the leading property portal in Pakistan, achieved record revenue of A$21.4m, increasing 60% on pcp (100% basis). As a result of the significant revenue growth and execution of its highly scalable transactions model, Zameen has delivered another strong EBITDA result of A$3.2m for the quarter, as illustrated in Figure 3. Notably, Zameen has recorded positive EBITDA in every month since August 2020.

The Company has seen significant growth in the number of transactions completed, recording 1,817 in 1Q 2022 compared with just 18 in 1Q 2021. The acceleration in AutoDeal’s EBITDA trajectory over the 12 months to 1Q 2022 demonstrates the earnings potential and scalability of auto transactions.
FDV MENA - 11% of 1Q 2022 revenue (FDV % share basis)
FDV MENA, which includes 100% ownership positions across the attractive Moroccan and Tunisian markets, recorded A$2.3m in revenue in 1Q 2022.

In 1Q 2022, Avito achieved revenue of A$1.8m, and Moteur reported revenue of A$0.1m (100% basis). Together, Avito and Moteur recorded a A$102k improvement in EBITDA in 1Q 2022, with Moteur recording its 4[th] consecutive quarter of positive EBITDA following FDV’s move to 100% ownership in January 2021. Avito continues to make strong operational improvements, with EBITDA in March 2022 only (A$58k). Further, Avito has seen strong momentum in transactions, with 10 property and 12 auto transactions recorded in 1Q 2022. Meanwhile, Moteur is in the early stages of facilitating auto transactions.
In addition, Tayara has recorded A$0.2m in revenue and EBITDA of (A$0.2m) (100% basis). The Company recorded 1 property transaction during 1Q 2022.
