Asian opportunity

  • Established operations in Singapore and deployed software to 3 energy suppliers as Singapore introduced competition

  • Monitoring energy market deregulation and retail competition in other Asian markets

  • Major markets are already liberalising - China and Japan

  • Other countries are planning deregulation - Korea, Malaysia, Philippines

  • Significant changes expected over the next 3-10 years as energy retail competition opens up these markets for Gentrack

Settlement and reconciliation of energy, Smart Metering roll outs, tariff reforms

Our customers are at the forefront of new utility business models, which are consumer centric

Legacy and in-house systems are more expensive to run and to keep compliant than new entrant solutions

We can follow our UK customers into Europe

Regulated/vertically integrated utilities cannot adopt Renewables and Distributed energy efficiently.

15

Gentrack Strategy

==> picture [44 x 45] intentionally omitted <==

1. Continue to productise our software

  • Better for customers, faster to deliver with fewer people and lower risk

  • Move to SaaS revenue – new and legacy customers over time

  • Improves margin and quality of earnings

3. Focus on our existing markets – UK, Australia and NZ

  • UK and Australia are long term growth markets despite current regulatory uncertainty, with opportunity to follow our customers into Europe

  • Develop the Asia Pacific opportunity from a strong starting point

  • Building on Singapore success and local expertise

  • Synergistic acquisitions, NZ$50m+ debt facilities

  • We target synergistic products with cross sell opportunity

16

Outlook

==> picture [44 x 45] intentionally omitted <==

  • EBITDA for first half expected at c.$12.5m, compared to $15.9m 1H18 and $15m 2H18

  • This is down on 1H18 due to increased staff investment of c.$5m compared to 1H18. We had expected this cost to be covered by substantial projects which have been put on hold

  • Notwithstanding the first half result, we expect the full year FY19 EBITDA to be up on FY18 EBITDA of $31m. We will comment further on this with the first half results released in May

  • Recurring software revenue (ARR) will be up in first half, in line with continued underlying growth

  • FY19 will see continued capitalised product investment, and is expected to reduce in FY20 when the margin benefits of the shift to ARR are expected to show

  • Regulatory and investment uncertainty in the UK and Australia continues for utilities, however we are winning business with a growing sales pipeline

  • We remain confident in our 15% long-term organic EBITDA growth target
