CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S REPORT

DEAR SHAREHOLDER,

We are pleased to report continued profitable growth for the half year ended 31 March 2018 (‘H1 FY18’). First half revenues of $52.0m and EBITDA of $15.9m were both up 80% on the same period last year. Net profit after tax of $8.4m was up 50%.

The acquisitions completed in April and May of 2017 (Junifer, Blip, CA+) have contributed to the result and we have made good progress with the integration of these businesses into the Group.

As the acquisitions did not contribute to the prior comparative period H1 FY17, our commentary also includes comparisons to H2 FY17 which is a more relevant benchmark for the Group’s H1 FY18 performance.

Comparing the first half performance to the second half of last year, revenues increased by 12%, EBITDA increased by 6%, and net profit after tax increased by 34%.

New projects with utilities and airports in the UK and Europe contributed to organic growth in the period. Growth in the UK has continued with revenue from the region up 314% on the same period last year, while projects in regions outside of the UK, Australia and New Zealand delivered revenues up 61% on H1 FY17. A comparison to H2 FY17 showed an increase of 60% for the UK, and a decrease of 41% for regions outside of the UK, Australia and New Zealand.

Recurring revenues from annual fees and support services continued an upwards trend recording an 89% increase on H1 FY17, while revenues from licences and project services were up 349% and 35% respectively. Contractually recurring annual fees have increased as a percentage of total revenue to 33% compared to 28% six months ago.

To support new projects and the ongoing product transformation activities across the business, people numbers have steadily increased, up 14% during the half year, and up 70% on the same period last year.

Utilities revenues and EBITDA climbed 65% and 67% respectively for the half year, driven by significant contributions from the UK operations and ongoing smart meter related projects in Australia. A comparison to H2 FY17, showed revenue and EBITDA increases of 11% and 3% respectively from Gentrack’s global utilities business.

First half revenues from Veovo, Gentrack’s global airport solutions division, also recorded increases, up 192% on the same period last year and 17% on H2 FY17. EBITDA was increased by 178% compared to the same period last year, and by 19% from H2 FY17. New projects that commenced at Belfast International Airport and Ports of Jersey, along with ongoing solution implementations in Greenland, Brisbane and Schiphol Airports, all contributed to a strong first half result.

We are investing in the development of pre-configured Market Ready Solutions for our key utility growth markets (UK, Australia, NZ and Singapore). This enables us to deliver Software as a Service projects quicker with lower risk and increases our mix of recurring revenue. We have capitalised development costs of $1.6m in the period; increased from $0.9m in H2 FY17, reflecting the long term returns expected from this initiative.

Priorities for the second half of FY18 include progressing market growth opportunities in the UK/European, Australasian and South East Asian markets, further innovation through our services and solutions which allows our customers to provide the lowest cost to serve models and best customer experience, and transforming our business operations to ensure we always anticipate and deliver to the needs of our customers.

Your board is pleased to declare a H1 FY18 dividend of 5.0cps, representing an increase of 19% to interim dividend for the same period last year.

Independent Review Report

To the shareholders of Gentrack Group Limited

Report on the interim consolidated financial statements

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention
that causes us to believe that the interim consolidated
financial statements on pages 8 to 17 do not:
i.
present fairly in all material respects the
Group’s financial position as at 31 March 2018
and its financial performance and cash flows
for the 6 month period ended on that date;
and
ii.
comply with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial
Reporting.
We have completed a review of the accompanying
interim consolidated financial statements which
comprise:
—the consolidated statement of financial position as
at 31 March 2018;
—the consolidated statements of comprehensive
income, changes in equity and cash flows for the 6
month period then ended; and
—notes, including a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory
information.

Basis for conclusion

A review of interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity (“NZ SRE 2410”) is a limited assurance engagement.

As the auditor of Gentrack Group Limited, NZ SRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial statements.

Our firm has also provided other services to the group in relation to the audit of the Groups components standalone financial statements, tax compliance, tax advisory and other assurance services. Subject to certain restrictions, partners and employees of our firm may also deal with the group on normal terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the business of the group. These matters have not impaired our independence as reviewer of the group. The firm has no other relationship with, or interest in, the group.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the review of the interim consolidated financial

statements

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial statements based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with NZ SRE 2410.
