June Quarter Results and Appendix 4C

23rd July 2020 – Jayride Group Limited (ASX: JAY) (“Jayride” or the “Company”),​ the global online marketplace for airport transfers, presents its Quarterly Business Review and Appendix 4C for the quarter ended 30th June 2020 (Q4 FY20).

  • COVID-19 severely impacted Passenger Trips Booked in Q4, down 94% year-on-year

  • Net Revenue declined to $21K in Q4, down 97% year-on-year

  • Net Cash Flow improved to $(0.99) million in Q4, compared to $(2.57) million in Q3, as a result of the $7 million of annualised cost savings implemented in late March

  • Contribution Margin was negative in April and May but has returned to positive since June

  • 1

  • ● July forecast Passenger Trips Booked to be up over 100% vs June , driven by Northern Hemisphere summer – Over 80% of Trips now booked outside of Australia

Rod Bishop, Managing Director, said​ : ​ “As we expected, our Q4 financial performance was severely impacted by COVID-19. Passenger Trips Booked fell by 94% in Q4, and our cash flow was affected by delayed collections. We implemented $7 million of cost savings and are right-sized to outlast a severe and prolonged downturn.

I am pleased to report continued early signs of recovery. Passenger Trips Booked are up each month since April, and July Trips are forecast to be a 100%+ increase over June. This growth is being driven by travel in the Northern Hemisphere summer – Over 80% of our Trips are now booked in the US, Europe and Asia.

In addition to these continued early signs of recovery, our competitive position is being enhanced by COVID, and we also see an acceleration of the trend towards online booking of rides in the travel industry. We are at an early stage in this long term growth trajectory. With $21 million invested in technology and systems, we are well placed to benefit from these tailwinds as the travel industry continues to recover.“

1 July 2020 forecast is a simple straight-line from the latest trading days. Jayride has 3,090 passenger trips booked to 19th July 2020, which gives a straight-line forecast to the end of July of 5,042 passenger trips booked in July.

Cash Flow

Net Cash Flow improved to $(0.99) million in Q4 FY20, compared to $(2.57) million in Q3, due to $7 million of annual cost savings implemented in March. Further improvements are expected in Q1 FY21.

Net Cash Flow in Q4 consists of Net Cash used in Operating Activities of $1.30 million and the return of the company’s office bond of $0.32 million. Net Cash Receipts from Customers in Q4 FY20 was $(500)K, impacted by the onset of COVID-19 in March. Overall Net Cash Flow varies by $310K from the forecast provided in the Company’s April Quarterly Business Review due to the increase in overdue receivables.

Q3 $(2.57) $(0.09) $(0.60) $(1.88)
Q4 (unaudited) $(1.30) $(0.07) $0.33 $(0.56) $(1.00)
Q1 (forecast) < $(0.50) ~ $(0.07) ~ $0.86 ~ $(1.00)
FY20 $(5.50) $(0.38) $1.29 $(1.01) $(5.40)

In April, Jayride made the strategic decision to pay transport companies for trips travelled in March, despite not receiving payment from the travel brand partners who made those bookings with Jayride. This caused the negative impact to receipts movement. The Company views payment of transport companies as critical for building the long-term strategic value of the business.

  • Traveller refunds:​ The majority of refunds relating to COVID were already paid during Q3, which impacted receipts movement in Q3. This did not recur in Q4, and is not expected in Q1.

  • Transport Company payments:​ In April, the Company elected to pay transport companies for travel in March, despite not having received payment from the travel brand partners who made those bookings. This impacted Net Cash Receipts movement by $(500)K.

==> picture [120 x 64] intentionally omitted <==

  • Overdue receivables​ : Key travel brand partners who book Jayride transfers continued to not meet their obligations to Jayride. Overdue accounts increased during the period. Accounts Receivable now stands at $650K. Around $600K of this was due to be collected in Q4. These amounts are overdue and remain payable. Jayride has insurance on key accounts with limits in excess of a combined $900K.

Q1 FY21 key cash movements are forecast to be as follows:

  • Net Cash Receipts of $0 or better:

  • Passenger Trips assumed to be zero. Collections are also assumed to be zero. Trips or collections above this level will provide positive contribution and cash flow.

  • No further receipts movement relating to COVID-19 cancellations is expected, as substantially all traveller refunds and transport payments were made in March/April.

  • Cash operational costs of approximately $1 million,

  • Grants and tax incentives of approximately $860K including Research and Development Tax Incentive, Export Market Development Grant, and stimulus packages including JobKeeper.

According to the key movements above, and whilst recognising heightened macro volatility due to COVID-19, Jayride expects Net Cash Outflows in Q1 FY21 to be less than $(500)K.

On 30th June 2020, the Company held $965K of cash.

Jayride also has $1 million of undrawn debt under its existing loan facility, and the support of its debt provider. The Company does not expect to draw upon this headroom at this time.

Chief Executive Officer and Directors, being related parties of the Company, were paid remuneration in the amount of $65K during the June Quarter.

COVID-19 Trends and Strategies

Jayride’s outlook assumes that the COVID-19 virus continues for the foreseeable future, and that travellers during this “new normal” will be purpose-driven with heightened needs for health security and duty-of-care.

In Jayride’s ​Market Update published on 23rd June 2020, the Company outlined strategies related to these new traveller behaviours, and the three tailwinds that the Company expects will characterise the continued return of world travel and its impact on Jayride – cyclical recovery from the impact of COVID, reduced competitive intensity in the industry, and a structural acceleration of the trend to book rides online.

The Jayride team continues to make progress towards each outlined strategy and tailwind, the early results of which will be covered in detail in Jayride’s FY20 Full Year Results Investor Presentation.
