KEY CLIENT UPDATE
Hiremii Limited (ASX:HMI) ( Hiremii or the Company ) wishes to provide an update in respect to the scope of services under a labour hire contract between UGL Operations and Maintenance (Services) Pty Limited ( UGL ) and the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Oncontractor Pty Ltd ( Oncontractor ).
DETAILS:
-
UGL has notified Oncontractor that it does not intend to extend a current supply request/purchase order for the provision of labour hire services in respect of metering personnel.
-
The provision of these services under the current purchase order will cease in early December 2021. With approximately $620k remaining on the purchase order as at the last invoice date of 7th November 2021.
-
The cessation will likely impact the Company's revenue going forward but is unlikely to affect contribution margins given the low gross margins derived from providing these services.
-
The cessation notice applies only to the provision of meter reading personnel. Oncontractor will continue to service UGL under current labour hire purchase orders issued under existing labour hire arrangements with UGL.
-
The Company will reduce all cost of sales and overheads associated with servicing the meter reading purchase orders.
-
The Company has recently diversified its revenue streams and broadened its client base, including diversification via the recent acquisition of Inverse Group Pty Limited, which in time will reduce the impact on revenue loss associated with the ceased UGL meter reader services.
REVENUE AND KEY CLIENTS UPDATE
UGL METER READERS
UGL has notified Oncontractor that it does not intend to extend a current supply request/purchase order for the provision of labour hire services in respect of metering personnel who are deployed to UGL as part of UGL's service arrangements with Endeavour Energy. The provision of these services under the current purchase order will cease in early December 2021.
Shareholders are advised that:
-
the metering personnel services provided by Oncontractor to UGL comprised approximately 56% of the of the Company's $1.30m unaudited revenue for the last quarter ended 30 September 2021, totalling $726k at a 4.2% gross margin of $30.7k.
-
there is approximately $620k remaining on the purchase order as at the last invoice date of 7th November 2021.
-
direct overhead and administrative expenses for the provision of these services totalled $59k for the last quarter ended 30 September 2021.
The Company has commenced cost reduction activities to remove overhead costs associated with the execution and administration of the meter reader scope under the purchase order. On delivery of these cost reductions, together with a working capital reduction associated with meter reader salary costs, Hiremii expects a small net working capital improvement to its ongoing cash burn rate from the cessation of these services.

Key Client Update
Shareholders are advised that existing labour hire arrangements with UGL are not affected by the change noted above and the Company continues to provide labour hire services to UGL with a strong quality of service record to date. These ongoing services comprise approximately 23% of the Company's unaudited revenue for the last quarter ended 30 September 2021, totalling $302k at a 9.2% gross margin of $27.9k.
Although the cessation of the meter reading personnel services will likely impact the Company's revenue going forward, the Company has (since its admission to the official list of the ASX on 11 May 2021) diversified its revenue streams and broadened its client base (from approximately 30 to 70 registered clients and 6 to 30 active clients), including via the recent acquisition of Inverse Group Pty Ltd (refer to the ASX announcements dated 5 November 2021 and 12 November 2021 for further details). This will reduce the impact of any loss of revenue from UGL ceasing to utilise Oncontractor for its metering personnel.
