ASX Announcement | 14 April 2025 Spacetalk Limited (ASX:SPA)
Spacetalk announces Chief Financial Officer appointment
Spacetalk Ltd (ASX: SPA) is pleased to announce the appointment of Innocent Ndoda as the company's new Chief Financial Officer (CFO), effective 14 April 2025. Ndoda joins Spacetalk with a wealth of financial leadership experience. He most recently served as CFO at Reask, a company that uses artificial intelligence to forecast extreme weather risks, and has held senior financial roles at Nearmap and Tyro Payments.
Ndoda succeeds Gerhard Beukes, who has served as Interim CFO for the past 12 months. Beukes will transition into a support and advisory role.
CEO and Managing Director Simon Crowther, Ndoda, and Beukes were all previously part of the leadership team at Nearmap, an Australian technology success story. Their reunion at Spacetalk creates an effective and proven leadership team capable of making the company sustainably profitable.
Spacetalk CEO Simon Crowther welcomed Ndoda's appointment, commenting:
“The appointment of a permanent CFO is the fulfilment of our long-term plan for the position. Innocent is an exceptional financial professional and a proven colleague who will be invaluable as Spacetalk continues its trajectory of growth.
"Innocent's leadership will build upon the strong financial foundation Gerhard put in place over the past year while he helped steer Spacetalk’s financial reset. Under Gerhard’s leadership as CFO, the company grew revenue 26% in 3Q25 vs PCP while cutting operating payments (ex-inventory) by 24%, putting it firmly on the path to sustainable profitability. He has embedded best financial practices, optimised costs, and driven revenue growth. We are grateful for his impact and are pleased that he will continue to support Spacetalk in an advisory capacity.”
