Gyrostabilisers

• A VEEM gyrostabilizer is a ship stabilizing technology that uses a powerful gyrostabilizer with patented control technology for vessels over 24m in length.

• VEEM commenced development of large gyrostabilizers for marine vessels in 2011.

• VEEM holds the dominant position as the only major supplier in the large marine gyrostabilizer market, which is estimated at US$1.1bn for new builds and US$13.5bn for retrofits (current fleet)*.

• Significant capital investment and intellectual expertise requirements now provide major barriers to entry for competitors. Production facilities capable of $100m per annum.

• Revenue from gyros was $5m for the half-year, 200% up on 1HFY23. Orders on hand at 30 June were $9.2m including $6.2m of Strategic Marine orders per below.

• The agreement with Strategic underscores the value of a gyro in a commercial/workboat environment in terms of safety, efficiency, productivity, operability and financially. Commercial operators are now the primary adopters of this technology with all sales during the period, and most orders, being for commercial vessels, including defence.

• Over the last year VEEM has increased its level of marketing and brand-building for its marine products with a focus on digital and social media.

Propulsion

• VEEM has been selling inboard propellers since 1989 and released the high-technology VEEM range internationally in 2001.

• VEEM operates the world’s most advanced monobloc propeller facility with 24/7 lights off operation producing approximately 5,000 propellers per annum.

• VEEM is the only company fully CNC machining every propeller over every mm[2] which ensures ultimate performance for sizes 0.5m to 5m diameter.

• VEEM continues to develop its processes and pursue new initiatives in relation to the propeller business where it can leverage its reputation and client base as the premium product in the market for high-speed, high-performance propellers.

• VEEM exports most of its propellers to the larger premium boat brands in the US and European markets.

• In October 2024 VEEM signed an exclusive worldwide agreement for the manufacture and sale of Sharrow propellers for inboard vessels. Refer to the next slide for details.

Propulsion – SHARROW by VEEM

• The Sharrow Propeller was invented by Greg Sharrow in 2012.

• Tip cavitation and vortices have been eliminated, or significantly reduced, offering incredible performance gains over traditional propellers.

• Spectacular impact on the outboard motor market with outstanding improvements in fuel efficiency, noise, vibration and handling.

• Agreement for VEEM and Sharrow to partner together to design Sharrow propellers for inboard powered vessels. VEEM will then exclusively manufacture and sell the SHARROW by VEEM range of propellers worldwide for inboard powered vessels with propeller sizes 0.5m to 5.0m diameter.

• The agreement is for 17 years (or longer if the patents expire after that date). VEEM will pay Sharrow a licence fee based on the sales of the SHARROW by VEEM propellers.

• VEEM will be initially manufacturing the SHARROW by VEEM propellers at its plant in Western Australia which has capacity for 450 to 500 propellers a month. If the adoption rates follow the same patterns as the Sharrow outboard motor propellers, then VEEM expects to be building increased capacity in the next few years.

• Overall market is 100,000 vessels which would of US$2.6 bn. Within this, the new boat market is 15,000 vessels worth US$338 million per annum.

Defence

• Cornerstone of VEEM’s business since 1987.

• VEEM supplied highly sophisticated critical components to ASC for the Collins Class submarines during the initial build and continues to supply all through-life replacements .

• VEEM is currently manufacturing blades and hubs for the Hunter Class Frigate Program (HCFP) demonstrator program for BAE Systems Australia. Successful completion ensures VEEM qualifies as a supplier to the HCFP. VEEM is one of only two suppliers globally to be able to produce this level of precision.

• Success with this project and the recent high-level defence supplier security qualification is expected to lead to further Australian defence work (see Federal Government announcement on 20 February 2024) as well as the potential to export equipment for other naval shipbuilding programs around the world, including other Type 26 frigate programs.

• VEEM also continues to be awarded contracts for numerous other defence projects including army vehicles and naval projects such as patrol boats (eg. Austal’s ECCPB).

• VEEM continues to monitor developments with AUKUS and other defence initiatives to ensure it is in the best position to win its share of the local precision manufacturing work programs. ASC Pty Ltd and BAE Systems have been selected to build Australia’s SSN-AUKUS submarines (21 March 2024).

1HFY24 Results Summary

• VEEM’s revenue for the half-year was $37.5m (up 37% on 1HFY23) with total activity (Sales + change in WIP) of $39.7m (up 24% of 1HFY23) on the back of increased job hours.

• EBITDA and NPAT were $6.9m and $3.5m, up 65% and 92% respectively on 1HFY23.

• Cashflow from operations was $4.4m, up 203% on 1HFY23.

• Gyro sales for the half-year were $5.0m with orders in hand of $9.2m on the back of Strategic Marine accelerating their gyro purchases, now requiring all 12 gyros in FY24.

• The increased propeller capacity installed late in FY23 was utilised early in the half to reduce the order backlog in propellers. Subsequently propulsion sales have stabilised with revenue of $16.5m for the half, up 41% on 1HFY23.
