STRONG FUNDAMENTALS

  • A large sticky customer base

  • Extensive IP:

  • Meter-to-cash solutions for utilities

  • Revenue and operations solutions for airports

OUR PATHWAY BACK TO GROWTH

1. Continued investment in SaaS products to maintain competitive advantage

  • 100+ people in product development

  • Focus on migrating existing customers to our new SaaS capabilities

  • accelerating the uptake of our Gentrack Cloud product offering

  • Focus on our existing markets – UK, Australia and NZ

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

  • Develop the SE Asia opportunity from a starting point

  • Building on Singapore success and local expertise

5. Synergistic acquisitions

  • We target synergistic products with cross sell opportunities

OUTLOOK

  • 1H FY20 EBITDA[1] expected to be between NZ$2m – $3m (1H FY19 $12.8m)

  • Cost reductions benefit 2H

  • UK and Australia energy market conditions remain unpredictable

  • Expect 5% growth in Contractually Recurring Revenue from existing customers:

  • We will continue to invest in our products to meet market requirements

  • Results depend on timing of projects and contracts

  • We will update the outlook with the half year results
