Quarterly Activity Report & Appendix 4C

Continued Growth Foreshadows Targeted $60M Annualised Revenue

SKS Technologies Group Limited (ASX: SKS) announces a significant increase in cash receipts from customers offset by increased materials and employment costs associated with increased growth across all market sectors.

Receipts from customers increased by 42.6% compared with the June quarter, up from $10.9 million to $15.6 million. This result included the first full quarter contribution from the recently acquired APEC Technologies business and is also on top of a 44% increase in receipts from customers in 4Q21, showing solid compound growth in the business.

Cash Receipts from Customers ($M)

Chief Executive Officer, Matthew Jinks, said “This level of income indicates that we are well and truly on track to achieve our stated revenue target of $60 million per annum. Equally, our order book has continued to grow ahead of our rate of

project completion and the pipeline of opportunities in our marketplace continues to offer numerous exciting prospects as the economy comes out of covid-driven hibernation.”

As a consequence of our growth trajectory, operations and employment expenditures have increased markedly. Operating and materials costs increased from $5.6 million in 4Q21 to $10.6 million in 1Q22, partly due to the full quarter contribution of APEC projects and also due to the ordinary course of business where the schedules on a number of projects have required budgeted outlays. A portion of these expenditures will convert to record billings and strong cash flow in October. With respect to employment costs, FTEs have grown by 21 to 149 people over the quarter to support the delivery of increased workloads. As a result of these activities, cash flow from operations was negative $0.68 million for the quarter.

Cashflow from investing was negative $0.14 million, dominated by $0.10 million in office fit-out for the new premises. This fit-out cost is in addition to the $0.31 million of fit-out costs in the previous quarter. The majority of this combined cost is expected to be refinanced in 2Q22 and thus we anticipate a cash injection of approximately $0.4 million in the current quarter.

During the period, the existing invoice financing facility was increased from $3 million to $5 million to fund continually expanding growth and $0.85 million was drawn down to fund current project activity.

In terms of planned acquisitive growth, SKS Technologies continues to work on new opportunities with its IT acquisition target, Integrated Solutions Group Queensland, and both parties remain committed to the purchase.

Mr Jinks said, “We’re optimistic about the future, with the rapid development of digital workplaces and facilities driving demand for our capabilities and opening up greater scope to diversify revenue streams. One of the lasting impacts of the Covid pandemic will be that we will now interact differently across the full spectrum of human activity and our business is in a prime position to capitalise on this fundamental and lasting change.”
