Mobecom Limited (ASX: MBM) (Mobecom or the Group) is pleased to provide an update of its trading activities for the quarter ended 31 March 2018 and its Appendix 4C.
Operational Highlights
Vodacom white-labelled application launches, securing initial revenues in March
Under the first phase of a multiphase contract, Vodacom’s white-labelled app launched on 28 February, following its successful implementation by Mobecom. Customers of Vodacom’s loyalty program SwitchedONBenefits are now able to access deals and vouchers directly from the app, which is built on airBux technology.
SwitchedONBenefits currently provides benefits to approximately 2 million members, who subscribe to the loyalty program to receive exclusive deals and vouchers for use at a variety of leading merchants in Africa.
Under its agreement with Vodacom, Mobecom earns licence fees based on the number of active SwitchedONBenefits members who have subscribed to the app. Revenues under the agreement commenced in March 2018, and the full impact of this revenue stream will be better reflected in the next quarter’s results.
Mobecom is currently in advanced discussions with Vodacom to deliver the project’s next phase, which will add transactional capability to the existing mobile service and an additional revenue stream for Mobecom under the agreement.
Commencement of Spur Corporation revenues on schedule for April 2018
Mobecom is in the final stages of implementing its white-labelled mobile app with loyalty and ordering capabilities for one of Spur Corporation’s brand of restaurant franchises, RocoMamas. The app is the first of a number of apps to be delivered to the Spur Corporation under the Master Services Agreement, announced on 30 November 2017. Mobecom is the exclusive provider of customer loyalty technology solutions for all of Spur Corporation’s franchises. The app’s launch and commencement of revenues remain on schedule for the end of April 2018.
Development of Spur Corporation’s remaining franchise brand apps is on-going and are expected to be delivered by 30 June 2018.
airBux launch remains on schedule for 2018
During the quarter, Mobecom executed agreements with Doshii and EOH expanding airBux’s anticipated potential distribution network to over 150,000 payment terminals and 50,000 merchants at launch.
The global legal structure for airBux, being a number of special purpose vehicles ( SPVs ) has now been established, with management actively engaged in multiple discussions to secure strategic partners in Australia, Singapore and South Africa in preparation for a CY 2018 launch. For more information, please refer to Mobecom’s announcement to the ASX on 30 January 2018.
Capital raise
In December 2017, the Company raised $1.2 million (before costs) via a private share placement ( Placement ) to sophisticated investors of which $1.143M was received in the December 2017 quarter and $57K was received in January 2018. For more information, please refer to Mobecom’s announcement to the ASX on 28 December 2017.
Financial Overview
At 31 March 2018, the Group had cash totalling $0.8M which reflects a decrease in cash of $1M since the beginning of the quarter. Cash receipts from trading during the quarter were $600K. Furthermore, the company anticipates the immediate settlement of debtors outstanding at the end of the March 2018 quarter amounting to $641K plus anticipated sales to customers of $226K and recurring sales amounting to $362K in the next quarter totalling $1.2M to add to the cash on hand.
Mobecom continues to closely monitor its cash flows from operating activities. The net cash outflow from operating activities for the March 2018 Quarter was $1M – this represents a significant reduction in the negative cash flow from operating activities by approximately $2.1M (including the effect of the cash inflow from the Research and Development Tax Incentive Rebate), when compared to the negative cash outflow from operating activities of $3.1M reported in the previous quarter.
Corporate Overview
During the quarter, the Board reviewed the Group’s corporate structure to identify dormant controlled entities with no assets and/or liabilities with a view to winding up these entities. As a result:
-
Mobecom continued with the process of winding up Waratah Gabon SA as reported in the previous quarter;
-
LifeIQ Singapore has been identified as a dormant company (with no assets or liabilities) and it is now in the process of being deregistered with the Singapore Corporate authorities; and
-
The name of Waratah Commodities Pty Ltd, a dormant entity in the Group, has been changed to airBux Australia Pty Ltd.
Outlook
Mobecom continues to focus on securing strategic partners for its airBux SPVs, ahead of a proposed launch in later 2018. Mobecom continues to progress commercial discussions with a number of parties.
Mobecom expects additional revenue inflow from recently signed customers. This additional revenue will be better reflected in Mobecom’s next quarter results as the relevant contracts continue to mature.
2
Mobecom remains focussed on finalising the implementation of its white-labelled mobile apps for Spur Corporation’s remaining franchise brands, and, is on schedule to launch its first app for RocoMamas by the end of April. Revenue from the agreement with Spur Corporation is expected to commence by the end of April 2018.
Ends.
