SmartTrans well funded with combined $4.3 million of cash at bank and net receivables (as reported 29 April 2016)

11 May 2016: SmartTrans Holdings Limited (ASX: SMA) (SmartTrans or Company) is pleased to confirm that it has commenced the FY2016 fourth quarter strongly with the Company recording revenue of approximately $1 million for April taking the company’s year-to-date revenue to $9.69 million, already surpassing the full previous financial year revenue total by 126%.

SmartTrans expects that revenue in the current quarter will exceed that of the prior quarter as the volume of transactions returns to its expected level after the traditionally quieter Chinese New Year period.

SmartTrans is witnessing good retention of users for its mobile content from Chinese consumers as the range of content transacted through SmartPay widens. Whilst games, news, and financial information make up the bulk of content sold through SmartPay, revenue from new third party content sales and distribution agreements is expected to deliver revenue into FY2017.

SmartTrans also confirms that it is well funded with $4.3 million in cash and net receivables.

Managing Director Bryan Carr commented: “The fourth quarter has started well for SmartTrans as the volume of transactions returns to normal levels. We are now focusing on ramping up marketing activities in new provinces and ensuring that we drive revenue growth from recently signed third party content distribution agreements.

“SmartTrans has invested heavily in marketing initiatives where it actively promotes content to Chinese consumers and collects payment through the telcos. The heavy investment made in marketing in the December quarter is expected to generate meaningful monthly revenue from this quarter onwards. Typically, however, there is a 90 to 120-day lag between the marketing spend and the resultant receipt of the cash.”

“SmartTrans is well funded and expects to generate solid revenue during the current quarter. Bringing new content to the SmartPay platform is our priority and a catalyst to grow our underlying recurring revenue base. We look forward to updating shareholders in the near term in this regard.”
