ASX Announcement | 11 April 2025 Spacetalk Ltd (ASX: SPA)

Quarterly Activities Report, Business Update and Appendix 4C for the quarter ended 31 March 2025

Spacetalk Ltd (ASX: SPA) (“Spacetalk” or “the Company”) is pleased to provide its Appendix 4C for the quarter ended 31 March 2025 (3QFY25) along with an operational update.

Financial Highlights:

  • Paid Mobile Subscriber Growth: Paid subscribers for Spacetalk Mobile (MVNO) grew to 42.5k in 3QFY25, up from 29.0k in 3QFY24 – a 47% year-on-year increase . This reflects the growing appeal and continued strong performance of the Spacetalk Mobile offering.

  • Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) Growth: ARR grew to $11.6m in 3QFY25, up 21% from $9.6m in 3QFY24. This continued growth reflects our shift toward sustainable, high-quality revenue streams, with all hardware sales now including a recurring revenue component.

  • Revenue Growth: Revenue rose by $1.1m to $5.1m in 3QFY25, up 26% from $4.0m in 3QFY24, driven by strong increases in both hardware and mobile revenue compared to the prior corresponding period.

  • Strong Net Cash Generation From Operating Activities Before Inventory Growth: Operating cash flow before inventory investments was $2.4m in 3QFY25, an improvement of $2.5m from -$0.1m used in 3QFY24, reflecting the strengthening of company’s underlying ability to generate cash from core operations.

  • Strong increase in Inventory and service enabling purchases due to international expansion: Inventory-related payments were $3.1m in 3QFY25, up $2.1m from $1.0m in 3QFY24. The increase was driven by inventory purchases to support our international expansion, strategic buying of end-of-life components ahead of our next hardware launch, and service enabling costs.

  • Continued Operating Payments Reduction: Payments excluding inventory were $3.1m in 3QFY25, down 24% from $4.1m in 3QFY24. This reduction reflects the positive impact of

optimising and right sizing the cost base, which continues to be realised across the business.

  • Cash Used In Operating Activities: Cash used in operating activities was -$0.8m in 3QFY25, an improvement of $0.3m from -$1.1m in 3QFY24. The result reflects a combination of stronger cost management and growing revenue.

  • International Expansion: We’ve commenced early-stage sales and business development across Europe, the UK, Singapore, the USA, Canada, and New Zealand — expanding from Australia-only in the prior year. This is being executed via a capital-light, ecommerce-first land and expand strategy designed to scale efficiently while minimising fixed costs.

Each device sale generates a new subscription, setting the foundation for a growing multiplier effect as we prepare to launch a new app, new hardware, and an AI-driven health and wellbeing wearable for seniors.

Spacetalk Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director Simon Crowther said:

" I’m pleased to share that Spacetalk is continuing to build momentum. This quarter reflects real progress in strengthening our business model — one that is recurring, scalable, and globally relevant. Our mobile offering continues to gain traction with families, and the growth in our paid subscriber base is a strong indicator of product-market fit and customer trust.

We’ve seen meaningful improvement in the quality of our revenue, underpinned by either a recurring mobile or recurring app fee attached to every device sold. The increase in revenue — and more importantly, the consistency of it — is a direct result of the hard work we’ve done to shift toward sustainable, higher-margin recurring revenue streams.

Operationally, we’ve demonstrated a disciplined approach to cash. Before inventory related investment, we generated $2.4 million in operating cash — evidence that our core engine is working well. At the same time, we invested $3.1 million in inventory and service enabling costs, compared to $1.0 million in the same period last year. This uplift reflects targeted purchases to support international expansion, secure end-of-life components, and ensure we are well prepared ahead of our next hardware launch.

It’s also pleasing to see our cost base is lean and efficient. A 24% reduction in operating payments shows that the tough calls we made last year are now delivering real benefit.

While still early days, we’ve begun extending our reach beyond Australia — with sales and business development now underway in several international markets. Every device we sell creates a recurring subscription, and we’re setting the stage for broader impact as we prepare to launch a new app, next-generation hardware, and, in due course, our senior’s product."

Spacetalk recorded a 47% year-on-year increase in paid mobile subscribers, reaching 42.5k in 3QFY25, up from 29.0k in 3QFY24. Quarter-on-quarter growth of 6.8% in 3QFY25 further demonstrates consistent momentum. Each new hardware sale drives recurring revenue and deeper engagement within the Spacetalk ecosystem — reinforcing the scalability and strength of our business model.

Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) Growth

  • Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) increased by 21% vs PCP to $11.6m (3QFY24: $9.6m), reflecting our focus on building sustainable, high-quality recurring revenue streams across the business.

  • ARR from Spacetalk Mobile grew by 44% vs PCP to $7.5m (3QFY24: $5.2m), driven by strong subscriber growth. The focus on mobile revenue reflects the superior unit economics compared to app revenue. Mobile subscribers do not pay separately for the app, which increases overall recurring revenue and profitability per customer.

  • ARR from the App declined marginally to $2.5m (3QFY24: $2.7m), reflecting a decrease in paying app users as more customers transition to the mobile subscription model. However, app usage remains high, with the majority of users accessing the app through their mobile subscription, rather than paying separately for it.

  • ARR from Schools decreased slightly to $1.6m (3QFY24: $1.7m), in line with expectations as we manage this offering in run-off mode, with state governments progressively insourcing these services.

  • The focus remains on maximizing recurring revenue and increasing customer lifetime value. Ongoing initiatives, including the development of a new app-Spacetalk 2.0 with more features, aim to further enhance the customer experience and support this strategic transition while maintaining high-quality, sustainable growth.

Revenue and Gross Profit Highlights:

==> picture [415 x 189] intentionally omitted <==

  • Revenue continued its strong growth and increased by 26% vs PCP, reaching $5.0m (3QFY24: $4.0m).

  • Device revenue increased by 47% to $2.2m (3QFY24: $1.5m), primarily driven by strong retail sales

  • Spacetalk Mobile continues its growth trajectory, with revenue increasing by 40% to $1.8m (3QFY24: $1.3m), a rise of $0.5m vs PCP. This growth reflects strong customer retention combined with ongoing expansion in subscriptions and higher ARPU, reinforcing Spacetalk Mobile as a key driver of our sustainable revenue growth.

  • App revenue declined slightly, in line with expectations, with revenue decreasing by 11% to $0.6m (3QFY24: $0.7m) while the user base was maintained. This decline reflects the ongoing strategic shift towards Spacetalk Mobile, where revenue increased by $0.5m, achieving higher revenue and profit per customer.

  • The Spacetalk App is a key focus area. The development of Spacetalk App 2.0 is actively underway. We expect this new version to enhance the customer experience and drive growth once released globally, further supporting the ecosystem of Spacetalk devices, mobile, and software.

  • Seniors business sales remain lumpy at this early stage but are showing strong interest as we activate reseller partnerships. This fast-growing sector is a key focus area strategically for Spacetalk.

  • Corporate revenue includes an EMDG grant we qualified for this year. We expect to qualify for larger grants in future years as we expand geographically.

Cashflow from Operating & Investing Activities

  • Net Cash Generated From (used in) Operating Activities Before Inventory Growth: Operating cash flow before inventory investments was $2.4m in 3QFY25, an improvement of $2.5m from -$0.1m used in 3QFY24, reflecting the company’s stronger ability to generate cash from core operations.

  • Investing activities remained consistent at $0.4m (3QFY24: $0.4m) for the quarter, allocating funds towards strategic growth initiatives, including app development and product innovation.

Financing Activities:

  • During the quarter, we are pleased to announce that we repaid the first $100k to Pure, reducing the debt of the company.

  • After the quarter end, we successfully raised $1.3m, made up of $1.1m from institutional investors, further strengthening our shareholder base as a cornerstone for future growth.

Related Party Payments

Payments to related parties and their associates during the quarter amounted to $144k, and this related to aggregate remuneration paid to all Directors of the company for the period.

8.6 If item 8.5 is less than 2 quarters, please provide answers to the following questions: 8.6.1 Does the entity expect that it will continue to have the current level of net operating cash flows for the time being and, if not, why not?

Answer:

Yes, the entity expects to maintain or improve its current level of net operating cash flows over time.

We are delivering double-digit growth in both revenue and gross profit each quarter compared to the prior corresponding period (e.g. revenue grew 26% this quarter vs PCP). This momentum continues to reduce operating cash outflows.

While the business is currently seasonal, with inventory purchases affecting short-term cash flows, this impact is expected to lessen over time. As high-margin, recurring revenue becomes a larger proportion of total revenue, the business will become less seasonal, and inventory requirements as a percentage of revenue will decrease — improving overall cash flow stability.

8.6.2 Has the entity taken any steps, or does it propose to take any steps, to raise further cash to fund its operations and, if so, what are those steps and how likely does it believe that they will be successful? Answer:

Yes, the entity has taken steps to raise further cash to fund its operations.

On 9 April 2025, we announced the successful completion of a $1.265 million capital raise, with the majority of funds coming from new institutional investors. This strengthens our balance sheet and demonstrates growing confidence in the business and its strategy. The strong level of support received, particularly from institutional participants, gives us confidence in our ability to access further funding if required.

8.6.3 Does the entity expect to be able to continue its operations and to meet its business objectives and, if so, on what basis? Answer: Yes, the entity expects to be able to continue its operations and meet its business objectives. This expectation is supported by sustained double-digit revenue growth. For example, revenue grew 26% in 3QFY25 compared to the prior corresponding period. This positive trend continues quarter-on-quarter, strengthening our operating performance. Additionally, the successful capital raise announced on 9 April 2025 brought in $1.265 million, primarily from new institutional investors, further supporting our cash position. The participation of new institutional investors not only strengthens our balance sheet but also broadens our investor base, opening up greater access to capital in future, should additional funding be required.

We are also improving the quality of our earnings by increasing the share of high-margin, recurring revenue. As these layers compound, we expect greater cash flow stability, reduced seasonality, and a lower reliance on inventory outlays as a percentage of revenue — placing the business in a strong position to deliver on its strategic and financial objectives.

Note: where item 8.5 is less than 2 quarters, all of questions 8.6.1, 8.6.2 and 8.6.3 above must be answered.
