Contracted Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) was 39% of Total Revenue in Q1 FY2023 (March)

Revenue types

  • A) Revenue one-off: revenue which does not meet the above definitions (these are typically one-off short projects)

  • B) Revenue likely to re-occur: revenue which management have a reasonable expectation will reoccur in the future either because it has been historically demonstrated to reoccur or because we hold rolling short term purchase orders or legal contracts which are less than 12 months in original length.

  • C) Revenue legally contracted and recurring: revenue from legal contracts with minimum original terms of 12 months, subject to normal termination provisions per each contract. The TCV and ARR measures contain only this type of contract.

Revenue in Q1 lower due to lower project revenue – January being a seasonal low month; recurring revenue up slightly

Net cash used in operating activities was A$62k in Q1 FY2023, down 58% on Q4 FY2022 and down 53% on Q1 FY2022

Sustained through flat cash receipts and another quarter of good cost management.

This positions DLT on a continued pathway to achieve operating cash breakeven.

STRATEGIC INITIATIVES

UNDERWAY – H1 2023 (ending June)

1. Re-Branding Strategy

Following the sell-down of the former majority shareholder, Delta Drone SA in December 2022, the Company intends to align its current business activities and corporate identity with a single name across the group.

The Company has today proposed to change its name to RocketDNA Ltd .

2. Unifying Business Purpose

The Name Change will also be supported by new branding and marketing efforts which not only clarifies the Company’s new vision and mission, but also defines a new range of data-driven products, powered by our core drone capture abilities.

ASX: DLTASX:DLT

OUR NEW NAME Mapping out our future growth path

Our mission is to democratise drone data which enables autonomous systems and empowers decision-makers

BUSINESS MODEL

CORPORATE & OPEX COSTS

Continue to contain & reduce corporate overheads, fees & consulting

▪ Improve margins (Arvista acquired late 2021)

Incentivise through non-cash mechanisms

Value add service offering and value chain (AI data processing)

Improve operational process flows (data capture and processing)

Unlock value from unique BVLOS* license longer range capability

Investigate debt-sourced funding for operational ‘growth’ purposes: ▪ Scaling new contracts ▪ Hardware purchases to further develop a value added client offering (to complement licensed software)

Expand the Agricultural service offering in Australia
