HALF-YEAR REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2020
WEARABLES DIVISION – MULTI-PRODUCT, REVENUE GROWTH, CHANNEL EXPANSION
DEVICES SALES
Despite the unprecedented and challenging circumstances brought on by COVID-19, the Group recorded its best ever half of revenue of $8.25 million (+9%), largely attributable to the continuing strong sales of the Spacetalk Wearables division of $7.1 million (+13%), with device revenue up to $6.3 million from $5.8 million, App revenue up 76% to $0.9 million, App ARR also up 76% to $2.3 million, and Customer Acquisition Costs (“CAC”) down 43% to $28. Bricks-and-mortar distribution expanded from 777 to 1,120 stores globally, with selected tier-1 retailers ranging Spacetalk products across their national footprints.
It is the first half in the Company’s history that more than one Spacetalk device was offered in the same category – the original Kids and Adventurer devices – with Spacetalk Life creating a new category of seniors connected wearables..
Bricks-and-mortar distribution expanded from 777 to 1,120 stores globally, with selected tier-1 retailers ranging Spacetalk products across their national footprints. It is the first half in the Company’s history that more than one Spacetalk device was offered in the same category – the original Kids and Adventurer devices – with Spacetalk Life creating a new category of seniors connected wearables.
In December 2020, the Company launched Spacetalk Adventurer – our ground-breaking 4G all-in-one smartphone watch and GPS device for kids aged 5-12. Fun, fashionable, safe and technologically advanced, Spacetalk Adventurer is a totally new design build and technology platform, with exciting new features that deliver confidence for the child, enhanced controls for the parent, and new functionalities for the family to stay connected. In its first two weeks of sales and prior to the commencement of advertising campaigns, Spacetalk Adventurer sales exceeded Spacetalk Kids unit sales, with revenue contribution of 18% of all device sales for the half (versus 77% for Spacetalk Kids and 5% for Spacetalk Life).
Leading into the launch of Adventurer, the Company strategically repositioned the original Kids devices at a lower recommended retail price to engage mass-market appeal and to differentiate its value proposition from the next generation Adventurer. The strategy of selling at the reduced price point delivered a strong uplift in the original Kids device unit sales, a net revenue uplift and further consolidated our reach and brand. Adventurer is the market’s leading connected kids wearable device in ANZ, and we expect this trajectory of sales to continue to deliver strong sales growth and record revenue results going forward.
In Australia and New Zealand (“ANZ”) revenue grew by 17% to $5.3 million, continuing to cement Spacetalk devices’ market leading position amongst ANZ consumers. Spacetalk began ranging through Harvey Norman Australia’s 120 retail stores, adding to our presence in ANZ at JB Hi-Fi, Officeworks, the Good Guys, Dick Smith, at Vodafone stores selling Spacetalk on monthly plans, and online with our Company e-commerce store and Kogan. Confidence from new and existing retail and Mobile Network Operator (“MNO”) partners to range our products contributed to $5.35 million of sales, with the Company’s e-commerce site contributing $0.95 million.
The half ended with the most successful Christmas sales period in the Company’s history, with record sales during Black Friday, Cyber Monday and right through Christmas driven in large part by the substantial promotions funded by our retail partners in recognition of the increased brand equity of Spacetalk with consumers.
NEW SPACETALK APP
Annual recurring revenue (ARR or monthly Spacetalk App subscription revenue) continues to grow extremely strongly, up 76% to $2.3 million.
In December 2020, the Company released the new Spacetalk App, replacing the AllMyTribe App and providing new functionality beyond parental controls; featuring group Family Chat with pictures and video, advanced health and fitness, and enhanced parent controls. Every linked contact, regardless of device or age, can now stay connected in the more fun, engaging and secure Spacetalk ecosystem. Spacetalk App subscriptions grew a record c.$202,000 in January 2021, up 6% from December 2020.
The business relevance of the new Spacetalk App is as significant as the continuing strong revenue growth in sales from the Company’s suite of devices. The introduction of the Family Chat function (with video and picture sharing) is expected to drive a circular and viral network effect for new customer adoption.
Spacetalk Family Chat is similar to WhatsApp messaging but with significant improvement, enabling young kids to use their Spacetalk devices to engage in group chat with family and friends, but in a highly secure, parent contact controlled and supervised manner.
Using the Spacetalk App, Parents control the contacts their kids chat with, and can monitor the conversation, all whilst their kids are having fun messaging, sharing pictures and videos with their friends and extended family members.
A circular network affect is created as family and friends need to download the Spacetalk App to participate in Family Chats, which increases users in the Spacetalk ecosystem, that in turn grows brand awareness and the ability to acquire new users of Spacetalk devices.
SCHOOLS BUSINESS – STABLE AND STEADY
The Schools business revenue was $1.0 million, down 22%, reflecting a change in date of the annual billing cycle of a software license fee relating to a large State Government education department contract, from the first half to H2 FY21.
The Schools business continues to deliver steady profit performance, with multi-year State Government contracts providing stable recurring cash flows.

HALF-YEAR REPORT 31 DECEMBER 2020
GROUP – STRONG TOP-LINE GROWTH, OPEX DISCIPLINE AND CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Record Group revenue of $8.25 million (+9%), gross margin of 54% and lower operating costs of $3.8 million (-17%) contributed to a healthy EBITDA of $0.61 million, an increase of 36%.
Gross profit of $4.45 million (-13%) was impacted by repositioning the original Spacetalk Kids device at a lower price point on the launch of Adventurer, deferred revenue of the Schools business to H2 FY21 and, to lesser extent, higher cost of goods sold (“COGS”) for Adventurer.
Corporate and administrative expenses fell to $1.4 million from $2.1 million, including lower shipping costs, product warrantees, travel, consulting fees and commissions.
Advertising costs decreased to $0.95 million from $1.2 million, with a greater share of advertising and promotion undertaken by partners. These included promotions over the most important shopping days leading up to Christmas and television advertising in Australia and the UK.
The Group received the Government’s JobKeeper wage subsidy for qualifying Australian businesses amounting to $499,500 and Cashflow Boost of $100,000. JobKeeper is reported as a reduction to the associated employee costs and the Cashflow Boost is recognised as revenue in the Consolidated statement of Profit and Loss, and Comprehensive Income.
Employee costs were flat at $1.4 million. The Company significantly strengthened the management team, with senior appointments in marketing and sales, in ANZ and the UK, and hires across sales, marketing and product development management. At 31 December 2020, the Company employed 43 staff in ANZ and 5 in the UK.
Significant once-off non-cash expenses included options and share issue costs of $0.1 million, down from $2.4 million, and depreciation and amortisation of $1.3 million, up from $1.2 million.
In July 2020, the Company undertook a $2.5m Share Purchase Plan (“SPP”). In excess of $5m applications were received, exceeding the original target of $1.5m by 236%. Capital raised through the SPP was used for inventory build, development of Adventurer and working capital.
At 31 December 2020 the Group held cash of $1.6 million, with positive working capital of $5.6 million (up $1.6 million from 30 June 2020), including a low inventory value of $184,447, $1.4 million in prepayments of outstanding inventory, an R&D tax incentive of $0.6 million and $4.0 million in receivables (net of a loss allowance of $623,188 predominately for rebate provisions and discounts). The Company has no drawn debt.
Company is in advanced dialogues for our bricks and mortar retail launch, and with MNOs, led by the Company’s new UK Country Head. Finally, Spacetalk’s launch in the USA remains on track, with an exciting go-to-market planned.
The Company is committed to the following objectives –
-
Growing the top-line with our expanded product suite – original Kids, Adventurer and Life – and channels – bricks and mortar retail, MNO and new geographies
-
Expanding Spacetalk Life for seniors distribution to a B2B2C model, where we are seeing strong interest from aged care and home care providers
-
Advancing our App and leveraging the ecosystem’s network effect to enhance user engagement and grow both device sales and ARR
-
Focusing on our global market penetration, in the UK with our new Country Head progressing a bricks and mortar launch as well as onboarding new MNOs, and in the USA with an exciting go-to-market planned for CY21
-
Improving operating cost efficiencies as we grow, with the aim of acquiring new customers at a lower cost as we scale in ANZ and take a disciplined approach to capital management with our international expansion

1.5 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND ESTIMATES
When preparing the interim financial statements, management undertakes a number of judgements, estimates and assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management, and will seldom equal the estimated results.
The judgements, estimates and assumptions applied in the interim financial statements, including the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied in the Group’s last annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2020. The only exception is the estimate of the provision for income taxes which is determined in the interim financial statements using the estimated average annual effective income tax rate applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period.
