Overview

ServTech Global Holdings Limited ( ServTech or the Company ) (ASX: SVT), a multinational software company that creates Virtual Reality (VR) & Augmented Reality (AR) solutions reports the following for the Financial Year ended 30 June 2019:

  • Successful completion of the acquisition of established, revenue generating business “Vection”;

  • Establishment of European distribution network anticipating the global launch of FrameS, with access to over 6,700 potential clients in targeted industries;

  • Vection executed an agreement with global luxury automotive manufacturer Volvo Car Italy;

  • Completion of a $2M placement to sophisticated and professional investors;

  • Implementation of change management initiatives for the integration of Vection; and

  • Identification and analysis of value accretive opportunities across its portfolio of virtual reality and augmented reality software solutions.

Vection Acquisition

On 12 April 2019, the Company announced the completion of the acquisition of Vection, a VR & AR software company with a portfolio of world-renowned clients, including Ferretti (yacht building), Lamborghini (luxury vehicles), Maserati (luxury vehicles) and many others.

Volvo Car Italy Agreement

Vection signed an agreement with Volvo Car Italy (Volvo), with the luxury car manufacturer set to adopt Vection’s VR and AR technology for marketing, automotive value chain, training and sales (ASX: 6 May 2019).

4

Vection developed an AR vehicle demonstration hardware and software solution for use in Volvo car dealerships. This engagement will result in revenue of up $430,000 to Vection (ASX: 16 July 2019).

FrameS Global Launch Strategy - Distribution Agreements

Based on Vection’s VR technology, FrameS is considered to be the ultimate VR software visualisation, collaboration and prototyping tool, allowing users dislocated world-wide to interact real-time in a multi- user virtual environment on a shared project.

ServTech will soon finalise a global launch strategy for FrameS and integral to this is the appointment of distribution and reselling partners. In this regard, Vection entered into two distribution agreements during the financial year, the first with European Enterprise Resource Planning systems integrator, Four Bytes Group (Four Bytes).

The agreement with Four Bytes gives Vection access to an extended network of approximately 30 resellers across multiple industry segments who have ~2,700 potential clients for Vection (ASX: 4 June 2019).

Vection’s second distribution agreement was Gruppo Infor (Infor). Infor is an established software distribution company which partners with leading software companies including Microsoft and Adobe. Vection and Infor will collaborate to market FrameS to Infor’s existing clients. This agreement provides access to approximately 4,000 clients (ASX: 24 June 2019).

The Company’s ultimate goal is to make FrameS a leading and widely used SaaS platform and the FrameS distribution network will be key to accomplishing this goal.

Another positive development in this regard was Frames receiving a technical compliance certification for from TÜV InterCert Srl. With the TÜV certification, eligible FrameS clients can obtain a fiscal benefit (amortisation of 140% of the FrameS subscription cost) from the Italian government. This effectively increases the value proposition of the FrameS offering with no associated cost to ServTech (ASX: 29 May 2019).

Other Software Development

During year, ServTech announced that it had entered into an IT development contract with Emerge Gaming Solutions Pty Ltd (“Emerge”) to offer strategic insights and manage the development and maintenance of Emerge’s eSports platform, for revenue of circa $500,000 over a 2 years period.

On 10 July 2018, the Company advised that the real estate businesses sold to The Agency Group Australia Limited (“The Agency”) had been successfully migrated to The Agency. As part of the transaction, ServTech continues to deliver support and SaaS services to The Agency. ServTech’s invoiced more than ~$30,000 each month for services to The Agency demonstrating that the offering has expanded beyond the scope of the initial engagement.

On 9 August 2018, ServTech announced that it had successfully completed development of a mobile application for a leading real estate profession in WA - Real Estate Institute of WA (“REIWA”). The successful launch of the REIWA app represents the first phase of development. The Company expects to gain further incremental revenue from this engagement as well as other contracts in the pipeline.

Corporate Overview

Following the approval of Shareholders, the Company completed the acquisition of Vection (ASX: 12 April 2019). In accordance with the terms of the acquisition, the Company issued 292,556,186 fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company and 150,000,000 performance rights. The Company also successfully completed the placement of 111,111,111 new Shares, at an issue price of $0.018 per Share raising $2 million (before costs).

The acquisition also brought the Company an experienced management team in the technology space to ensure continued growth and performance, enhancing the existing ServTech business. The Company announced the appointment of Mr Gianmarco Biagi as Managing Director and Mr Lorenzo Biagi as Executive Director and Chief Sales Officer.

Mr Gianmarco Biagi is an experienced executive, having served as CEO and board member of several Italian and multinational manufacturing corporations. He previously held the position of general manager of Luxury Living Group (a company with annual revenues of ~€140M).

Mr Lorenzo Biagi is an experienced company manager in the private sector, with extensive knowledge in virtual reality technology, sales and cost control management.

Company Financial Overview

The Company posted total revenue of $1,362,124 of which $1,257,617 was derived from ordinary operations. This is up substantially on the previous year (2018: $475,324) when the Company was retargeting its resources to software development and outsourced services. The acquisition of Vection in the last quarter of FY2019 positions the Company well for a strong FY2020.

Explanation of loss

The Company’s loss for the year of $4,420,102 (2018: loss of $3,872,777) is largely attributable to an accounting impairment loss of $3,084,659. This one-off, non-cash expense is recognised as a result of the acquisition of Vection. Management will routinely review its assets for impairment and should the Vection business prove to be very successful, this impairment could be partially or fully reversed. Adding back this item, the Group loss would have been ~$1.4M.

As the Vection business is integrated into the Group and synergies are achieved, both the existing and new business are anticipated to perform strongly.

Cash Position

Cash at the end of the year was ~$796,569. This balance does not reflect that the Company banked late customer receipts shortly after year end totalling ~$250,000.

The Company had significant receivables outstanding at 30 June 2019 from both ServTech’s existing operations and Vection of ~$540,000 not including amounts owed by The Agency.

One-off costs relating to the new business and implementing synergies of were also incurred. This implementation process will reduce Group administration costs going forward.

6

Outlook

As the Company continues its growth strategy into the European market, and into the design and engineering software market segment with its virtual and augmented reality software offering, it is currently generating opportunities in new jurisdictions and new technologies.

The Company is also looking at launching new software products aimed at targeting the AEC market segment, which is expected to generate significant sales opportunities for the group.

13. The financial information provided in the Appendix 4E is based on the preliminary financial report (attached), which has been prepared in accordance with Australian accounting standards.

NOTE 8: SEGMENT REPORTING

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses (including revenues and expenses relating to transactions with other components of the same entity), whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance and for which discrete financial information is available. This includes start-up operations which are yet to earn revenues. Management will also consider other factors in determining operating segments such as the existence of a line manager and the level of segment information presented to the board of directors. During the year the Company only operated in one segment; the provision of custom software solutions, outsourced back office and IT services.
