ikeGPS Group Limited (IKE) (NZX: IKE / ASX: IKE) is pleased to release the results for 1H FY25 to 30

September 2024. All figures are in NZD.

Highlights for the half year, with results in-line with the performance update on 24 October 2024:

 Exit run rate of annual platform subscription revenue grew to ~NZ$13.2m (+34% vs pcp).

 Total recognized revenue in the six-month period of ~NZ$12.2m (+16% vs pcp).

 Recognized subscription revenue of ~NZ$6.5m (+28% vs pcp).

 Recognized transaction revenue of ~NZ$4.0m (+6% vs pcp).

 Recognized hardware and other services revenue of ~NZ$1.7 (in-line with pcp).

 Gross margin of ~NZ$8.1m (+31% vs pcp), with a gross margin percentage of ~67% (up

from pcp of ~59%).

 Net loss was ~NZ$6.9m (pcp ~NZ$6.4m).

 Non-cash items included in this Net loss amount totalled ~$3.7M (pcp ~NZ$2.2m).

 Cash used in Operating activities of ~NZ$2.6m (~51% lower vs pcp).


Commenting on company progress since the release of its quarterly performance update mid-

October 2024, IKE CEO Glenn Milnes said: “since updating the market a month ago we are pleased to

have executed on continued sales momentum with ~NZ$4m in contracts closed in the month of

October (~NZ$2.4m for subscription products and ~NZ$1.6m for transaction & other products).

Two important items were also advanced from a product perspective since 1 October. AI &

automation capabilities have been launched inside of IKE’s core IKE Office Pro product. This will

initially drive productivity and increase the gross margin of IKE’s tech-enabled IKE Analyze business

process but is expected to become an additional up-sell subscription product for the hundreds of

external IKE Office Pro enterprise customers.

Additionally, IKE has continued to collaborate closely with its customer council of leaders of North

American electric utility businesses, representing companies delivering power to over seventy million

customers. This key customer collaboration targets our development efforts, and based on their

inputs, to drive more subscription product adoption.

Our balance sheet position remains strong, noting that cash used in operations in the period

decreased to ~NZ$2.6m, improving 51% vs pcp, and that our overall cash position has reduced

~NZ$3m over the past 12-months while we’ve invested significantly into building five new products,

three of which were launched in 1H FY25, and while we have continued our expansion in the market

with new customer wins running at ~one per week.

The commentary and charts below reflect what was released in the mid-October 2024 performance

update. It is repeated here for consistency: "Q2 FY25 represented another strong period with

significant subscription contracts closed with tier-1 North American customers that continue to grow

our ARR run rates.

In addition, we closed a record ~NZ$33m of total contracts in the six-month period across ~415

deals, noting that some subscription and transaction contracts will be recognized over a multi-year

period and that execution of some of these transaction contracts rely on underlying IKE customers

completing their associated engineering.

Our customer retention rates remain excellent at ~95% and our sales pipeline for new business is

strong and growing.

With respect to core subscription revenue and ARR, since the launch of the new IKE PoleForeman

product 10 months ago, Total Contract Value (TCV) has exceeded $12.5m from mostly tier-1 electric

utilities in the U.S. market. Due to the extremely sticky nature of these customers, the life-time value

of these contracts is significant. In total, ~84 customers have now subscribed to this new platform,

of which ~50 were existing customers and ~34 are new customers. This has translated to several

thousand new seat licenses, each representing a distribution network design engineer utilizing the

software. We expect more major customers to close in the near term and that IKE PoleForeman will

ultimately be the Standard for structural analysis in eight of the ten largest electric utilities in North

America.

Total subscription revenue in FY25 is expected to grow strongly at ~40% or greater vs pcp. This

outlook was revised down from 50% from the start of the financial year based on the likely timing to

close some major pipeline contracts with various tier-1 investor-owned utilities, given that the

associated subscription revenue is recognized over the subsequent 12-month period from close. Our

guidance for ~40% growth or greater in FY25 Subscription revenue is somewhat dependent on the

timing of customer conversions onto the new IKE PoleForeman product. A delay in the up-sale close

processes, with various existing customers, could lead to slightly lower revenue recognition in FY25,

but we remain very confident that this revenue would be recognized in subsequent periods. This is

because we have customer contracts in place and given the conversion of older version PoleForeman

customers has been strong year-to-date due to the enhanced next-gen product on offer and its

productivity features.

Transaction revenue in FY25 is expected to continue to grow against the prior year based on contracts

in place, but with a wider range of potential profiles and, as such, represents higher risk – both upside

and downside. IKE generates additive transaction revenue, on top of base subscription revenue, from

some customers as they engineer more network assets in our system.

Our margin profile was also stronger in 1H FY25 vs pcp at ~67% (up from 59% in the pcp). This

improvement is due to a shift in the product mix toward higher-margin subscription revenue. We

expect this trend to continue.

We believe macro-market tailwinds across North America remain highly supportive of IKE’s business

and will continue to grow over the coming decades. Our North American-headquartered team is

executing on sizable sales opportunities. Based on closed, long-term contracts with some of the

largest utilities in this market, an expanding pipeline, and noting that today IKE has less than ~6%

market share, we expect healthy growth in the 2H FY25 period and beyond.”

Customer Number Reconciliation:

Since 31 December 2023, IKE has changed its reporting of customer numbers from ‘All Enterprise

Customers’ to ‘Subscription Customers’, reflecting only customers with recurring subscription

revenue. The reconciliation between these two metrics will be reported until 31 December 2024.

Reconciliation is as follows:





Additional commentary:


New AI-based products launched to market in Q2. Unique whole-of-network intelligence for the North

American industry.

Q2 FY25 was an exciting period for IKE in terms of innovation with the launch of new AI-based

products. This has followed significant investment into building automation capability specific to

productivity outcomes for the assessment & design of distribution networks and associated

engineering workflows.

The solutions launched in Q2 were:

- Double-Wood Detective, see https://ikegps.com/ike-insight/double-wood-detective/.

o Double-Wood (also known as a buddy-pole, ghost-pole, or two-pole) is a prevalent

issue for all electric utilities, with up to 10 million of these assets estimated to be

across the U.S. power network. Double-Wood can result in lagging pole transfers,

backlogs, and communication gaps between pole owners and ‘attachers’. When

unaddressed, these assets create a safety hazard and can be the most vulnerable

point in a distribution power network. Regulators are increasing their focus on this

risk as well. Because of the size and age of any distribution network, many utilities

do not have a strong grasp of these assets and their exposure.

o Double Wood Detective from IKE helps utilities identify and validate double-wood

instances at whole-of-network scale, using bulk imagery & AI. This dramatically

increases network intelligence and reduces cost and time resource-intensive field

inspection requirements.

- Joint-Use Ticket Automation, see https://ikegps.com/ike-insight/joint-use-ticket-

automation/

o Joint-Use Ticketing represents an industry-wide requirement across North America

for network owners to communicate with one-another wherever a distribution pole

is shared, say between a power company and a fiber company, for billing, engineering

and maintenance. There are more than 200 million poles in the U.S. market alone,

most of them shared, so joint-use ticketing is currently a significant cost, risk, and

administrative burden for all network operators. Backlogs put these companies at

risk with contractual or regulatory obligations, creating liability exposure.

o The Joint-Use Ticketing Automation solution from IKE helps utilities,

communications companies, and engineering firms dramatically streamline this

process. Using AI & machine learning, this product seamlessly creates, populates,

and updates NJUNS tickets using existing bulk data, dramatically reducing costs and

time, and materially increasing process accuracy.

Several other new AI solutions will be launched to market from 2H FY25. Capabilities will include

automation tools inside of IKE’s Office Pro product. This will initially drive productivity for IKE’s

internal Analyze team but ultimately will be an up-sell opportunity into IKE’s widely established

customer footprint of IKE Office Pro users, further increasing ARPU.


Balance sheet & working capital strength:

As of 30 September 2024, total cash and receivables are ~NZ$11.1m, comprised of ~NZ$6.8m

cash and ~NZ$4.3m receivables, with payables of NZ$1.0m and no debt.

As context, cash has reduced ~NZ$3m over the past 12 months during a period of substantial

investment into building five new products, three of which have now been launched to market, and

through a period of substantial recurring revenue and customer growth. Investment into product

development is paying back, an example being IKE PoleForeman. This new product has been in-

market for ~nine months and as above to date the product has generated ~$12.5m in Total

Contract Value and has increased IKE’s ARR by ~NZ$4.0m. Management and the Board remain

cognizant of the importance of maintaining a strong balance sheet position, executing against

immediate revenue growth opportunities whilst retaining the ability to manage costs appropriately.


Macro-market tailwinds remain across North America

As consistently stated, macro-market tailwinds across North America remain highly supportive of

IKE’s business and are growing, driven by the forecasted $300B investment by electric utilities into

building & maintaining distribution power network capacity and associated network hardening. To

meet caron-zero targets in the U.S. by 2050, analysts forecast that approximately 50% of the energy

in the U.S. needs to be on the electrical grid, from a position of just 20% today. Additively, there are

multi-year investments being made into building overhead fiber and 5G networks by more than 200

communications companies. IKE’s product suite drive productivity outcomes supporting the lifecycle

of these networks.

Notes to the consolidated interim financial statements
1. Reporting entity

ikeGPS Group Limited (the “Company”) is a limited liability company domiciled and incorporated in New

Zealand, registered under the Companies Act 1993 and listed on the New Zealand Stock Exchange (“NZX”)

and Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”). The Company is an FMC reporting entity for the purposes of the

Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The interim financial statements for the six months ended 30

September 2024 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”), which

include ikeGPS Limited and ikeGPS Inc.

The principal activity of the Group is that of design, sale, and delivery of a solution for the collection, analysis,

and management of distribution assets for electric utilities and communications companies.

The consolidated interim financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on21 November

2024.

2. Basis of preparation

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements

are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise

stated.

Basis of measurement

These unaudited interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 September 2024 have been

prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (“NZ GAAP”) and NZ IAS

34, Interim Financial Reporting.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis with the exception of

certain financial instruments, which are measured in accordance with the specific relevant accounting policy.

These unaudited interim financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in an

annual financial report. Accordingly, this report should be read in conjunction with the audited financial

statements of the Group for the financial year ended 31 March 2024, which were prepared in accordance with

the New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS). All significant

accounting policies have been applied on a basis consistent with those used in the audited financial

statements of the Group for the year ended 31 March 2024.

Critical estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and

assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,

income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates

are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

In preparing these condensed interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management

in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as

those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024, unless

separately identified in the notes.

Notes to the consolidated interim financial statements
At the end of the period, the Group has reviewed the cash generating unit (CGU) carrying amounts, key

assumptions, and estimates for indicators of impairment. The Directors have identified the following CGUs:

+ CGU1 – IKE Core platform

+ CGU2 – Spike

+ CGU3 – IKE Structural

+ CGU4 – IKE Insight

The Directors determined that there have been no material changes since the 31 March 2024 Annual Report

for CGU1, CGU2, and CGU3.

However, indicator of impairment existed in CGU4 due to the lower-than-expected revenue, requiring an

estimate of the CGU4 recoverable amount.

CGU4 was determined to have a carrying value of $6.9M including goodwill. CGU4 is an early-stage business

segment and technology asset that IKE acquired January 2021. Future cash flows are forecasted based on a

five-year business model for CGU4, with the year two revenue forecasted to be $1.7M with an average

revenue growth rate of 120% in years three to five and operating expenses reflecting the FY25 business plan.

A pre-tax discount rate of 15.9% was used to establish the recoverable amount on a value in use basis. In

determining the terminal value, the Group applied a 2% growth rate.

The Directors believe that given the large desire for automation in the industry and use of artificial intelligence

to complete pole analysis the CGU could outperform these estimates. During the year the first of several

products to be released have been launched in the marketplace with further products close to commercial

launch.

However, given the prior years lower than expected revenue the Directors have taken a prudent approach to

forecasting future revenues.

Impairment of non-financial assets

Based on this approach, the Directors have determined that no impairment of CGU4’s intangible assets of is

required as the carrying amount does not exceeded the value in use calculation.

Going concern

Notwithstanding the above, the Group has prepared cash flow forecasts and sensitivity analyses that indicate

cash-on-hand at the end of the 6 month period (NZ$6.8M), combined with the net cash flows from operations,

will enable the Group to continue operating as a going concern for at least twelve months from the date of

authorising these consolidated financial statements

The considered view of the Board Directors is that the going concern assumption is valid. This view has been

reached after making due enquiry and having regard to the circumstances that the Directors consider will

occur and those that are reasonably likely to affect the Group during the period of one year from the date

these consolidated financial statements are approved.

The Group recorded a net loss of NZ$7.1M (Unaudited) for the 6 months ended 30 September 2024 (2023:

NZ$6.9M) with a cashflow deficit of NZ$3.0M for the same period (2023: NZ$8.1M) and is expected to make

further losses in the following financial year whilst continuing our trajectory to cash breakeven.

Notes to the consolidated interim financial statements

Other liabilities are obligations from prior year business combinations and were initially recorded at fair value. They are deferred

consideration and are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

The Group has employment agreements that result in cash payments being made to certain staff at the end of a service period. The

expense is accrued as services are delivered and payment is made at the end of the service period. The liability was initially measured at

fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost.

September 2024

March 20243,429

The Group is exposed to foreign currency risk on its revenue and a significant portion of its expenses that are denominated in USD,

which is different to the Group’s presentational and parent’s functional currency NZD. Additionally, the institutional placement and share

purchase plan completed during the 2022 financial year was predominantly in AUD, creating additional foreign currency risk exposure.

Therefore, the Group has purchased AUD/USD foreign exchange options to mitigate the risk on its AUD cash holdings.

If the NZD strengthened / weakened against the USD or AUD by 10% at 30 September 2024, the effect on profit / loss is as follows:
