Spacetalk Receives $428,853 Tax Research and Development Rebate
Spacetalk Ltd (ASX: SPA) (“Spacetalk” or “the Company”), which develops and sells hardware and software to provide safety at every stage of life, including Australia’s best-selling kids smartwatches, has received an R&D tax incentive cash rebate payment of $428,853 from the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) for the year ended 30 June 2024.
The rebate reflects Spacetalk's continued investment in innovation and research to enhance its range of connected devices and launch new services and software.

We are grateful to the Australian government for rewarding high-quality research and development through the tax incentive.”
