Commentary
Although the full year FY24 result is disappointing, the half on half comparison reveals a significantly stronger business in 2HFY24 with improved earnings and cash flow.
At a revenue level:
-
2HFY24 saw the disposal of the digital marketing agency (as advised to the market on 15 January 2024) and the resulting reduction in revenue;
-
There was a fall in the commission rate on renewal revenue from existing customers on a year on year basis as well as for the six month period 2HFY24 vs 1HFY24. Importantly, commissions from new sales remained unchanged from FY23 to FY24 and across both half year periods of FY24.
-
Commencing FY24 we ceased invoicing customers in advance for multi-year contracts and moved to annual in advance invoicing.
At a cost level in 2HFY24 vs 1HFY24:
-
2HFY24 saw a significant focus on improving productivity and reducing total expenses throughout the period with the resulting reduction in costs across most areas of Jcurve.
-
We maintained expenditure on sales and marketing as we look to accelerate revenue growth and new customer acquisition.
A more detailed commentary will be provided in the Business Update to be provided at the same time as the release of the Financial Statements.
