FY20 OVERVIEW.

A RECORD SET OF RESULTS.

Financial success

Operational success

  • FY20 was a record year across all key financial metrics , exceeding guidance and showing the strength of our business model in challenging, uncertain and volatile times:

  • Revenue was up 30% .

  • EBITDA was up 34%[1] .

  • NPATA was up 41%[2] .

    • EPSa was up 40%[3] .
  • Our strong cash flows led to a reduction in net debt with our leverage[4] now 1.46x down from 2.16x for year ended 30 June 2019.

    • FY20 was a very strong year operationally as we adapted to the global pandemic:

      • Accelerating Hansenisation.

      • Transitioning to working from home

      • High customer satisfaction.

        • Company investment.
    • We continue to build on this journey with significant customer wins, the recruitment of new senior appointments and focused M&A team.

  • Our long-term aggregation journey has delivered strong annual growth over the long term with five-year growth compound annual growth rates of:

  • 23% for revenues, 19% for EBITDA, 20% for NPATA and 16% for EPSa.

Notes:

  1. FY20 EBITDA = Reported EBITDA including $5.0m of non-recurring items; FY19 EBITDA = Reported EBITDA including $2.8m of non-recurring items; prior years adjusted for impact of AASB16 (see later slides). 2. Underlying NPATA: net profit after tax excluding tax effected amortisation of acquired intangibles and one-off items.

  2. Adjusted Basic EPS, based on Underlying NPATA.

  3. Leverage ratio: net debt (including pre-paid borrowing costs) / EBITDA excluding impact of IFRS16 and non-recurring items

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT.

RECORD DIVIDEND WHILE STILL REDUCING DEBT AND INVESTING IN GROWTH.

NET DEBT ($M)

Our position:

  • In FY20, net debt was reduced by $34.9m to $116.5m.

  • Leverage ratio[1] = 1.46x at 30 June 2020.

  • Well supported by banks

Capital management philosophy:

  • Having considered Hansen’s capital requirements, strong capital structure and liquidity position, the Board determined an increased dividend to return money to shareholders was appropriate.

  • Level of dividend is at the discretion of Board subject to available cash and activity being undertaken at the time - targeting 5 cents base final dividend on an ongoing basis.

  • Hansen’s strong cash generation means that even with this increased dividend and special dividend we have the cash flows to invest in our products and fund acquisitions.

FY21 TRADING UPDATE.

CONTINUED STRONG PERFORMANCE AGAINST AN UNCERTAIN OUTLOOK.

1

  • Revenues continue to perform in line with expectations.

REVENUES

  • Strong customer wins so far in the year underpinning our longer-term revenue outlook.

  • Appointment of Bobby Slaton as Head of Global Strategic Sales and focused M&A team to drive long-term growth.

  • Immediate outlook continues to appear solid, albeit with some uncertainty due to the global pandemic.

2

  • Margins above expectations.

PROFITABILITY

  • We continue to benefit from the cost rationalization efforts performed at the beginning of the global pandemic.

  • No productivity declines as we continue to work from home.

  • Margins benefiting from development centre training cycles completion and all costs out of Sigma integration.

3

  • Cash collections remain strong allowing a further $7.6m pay down of debt (at 13 November 2020).

OTHER

  • The Australian dollar has seen increased volatility (and an increased value) against the US dollar.

  • Customer behaviour potentially contingent on global pandemic and economic developments.

Trading exceeding expectations with continued uncertainty around H2 2021.

FY21 OUTLOOK.

EXCITING LONGER-TERM FUTURE.

A view of the first half

Our business continues to trade very much in line with our expectations:

  • Operating revenue, notwithstanding COVID and currency impacts, is in line with the same corresponding period for FY20.

  • Cost savings initiatives introduced as we closed FY20 have translated well into the business and we expect first half EBITDA margins to be in the range of 34% - 36%.

  • Margin improvements have been generated through:

  • Operational efficiencies, reduction in travel, acquisition costs and office related costs.

  • Some of these costs will return when “COVID-normal” is found.

A view of the full year

  • Due to currency headwinds and not renewing low margin business, we expect our FY21 operating revenue to be down 2% - 4% on FY20.

  • However our full year EBITDA margin is expected to materially increase from 27% to be in the range of 33% - 35% with a corresponding increase in operating cash flow.

  • A dedicated M&A team is now in place to drive our industry aggregation strategy.

  • We will look to accelerate our M&A activity once COVID-19 restrictions are lifted.
