COVID-19
Positive exposure to essential network infrastructure and pro-active management of evolving issues enabling continuation of operations
-
Exposure to essential infrastructure networks has provided a steady revenue base and sustained resilience through the COVID-19 pandemic
-
Comprehensive COVID-19 response plan maintained across all aspects of the Group’s national operations
-
Strong engagement with clients to ensure safe operations within agreed guidelines
-
COVID-19 related effects which have negatively impacted operations during FY21 include:
-
deferral of discretionary and non-critical programs of work
-
border restrictions and various state-based lock downs impacting work delivery and resource movement
-
continuing moratoriums on electricity and gas disconnections (and subsequent reconnections)
-
increased costs to support specific safety-related protocols across business operations
-
The Victorian Stage 4 COVID-19 restrictions significantly reduced TechSafe’s Victorian services with $1.1m of JobKeeper assistance received in relation to this issue
-
The business continues to monitor and adapt to the changing COVID-19 landscape and circumstances. The recent outbreaks across NSW and Victoria have interrupted some of our operations, however the business has been able to mitigate any impact to date.

Trading update and group outlook
-
Service Stream YTD trading has been in line with expectations
-
Stronger Telecommunications volumes has offset lower contribution across Utilities primarily due to COVID-19 related challenges
-
Full year post acquisition pro forma FY22 EBITDA from Operations (as if the transaction had completed on 1 July 2021) inclusive of full run rate of synergies of $17m, of $120-125m guidance maintained
-
Service Stream’s FY22 standalone earnings are expected to rebase below FY21, in line with the Telecommunication contracts secured during FY21
-
Lendlease Services has experienced slower ramp up of new projects, but full year FY22 earnings expectations maintained
-
Contribution from integration & synergy program to progressively ramp up from H2
-
Actual FY22 consolidated group results will include approximately 8 months contribution from Lendlease Services and realised synergies
-
The current outbreak of COVID-19 is interrupting some of the Group’s operations. Given the unpredictable nature of this pandemic and the associated response, any impact to the full year outlook is currently difficult to predict
-
Financial impacts to date have been successfully mitigated through overperformance across the broader business
==> picture [241 x 349] intentionally omitted <==
-
Whilst the business expects there will continue to be intermittent interruptions, it has not forecast for major lockdowns to continue throughout the year
-
We expect lockdowns should diminish, and are encouraged by increasing vaccination rates across the country
