EBITDA (*) $0.6 M Range: $1.0 M to $1.2 M 67 – 100 %
NPBT (*) $0.6 M Range: $0.9 M to $1.1 M 50 – 83 %

(*) R&D is expensed as incurred under the Company’s accounting policies. The above FY2018 guidance includes $1m of expensed R&D ($0.7m in FY2017).

Our sales/revenue mix is changing, evolving towards fewer but larger priced contracts which take longer to implement and recognise revenue in line with our revenue recognition accounting policy. We remain on track to reach the guidance levels outlined above. The growing ERP division’s revenue profile is heavily weighted towards the second half of the year particularly Q4. We have made a substantial investment in our ERP team through the employment of new employees over the past 6-9 months to achieve the forecast results, the investment which is now complete.
