Gentrack Group Ltd (NZX/ASX: GTK) (“Gentrack”) advises that half year guidance to

31 March 2020 remains as previously advised, being EBITDA

of between NZ$2m –

$3m and confirms its previous decision to withdraw full year guidance as a result of the

ongoing uncertainty surrounding the duration and scale of the COVID-19 outbreak.

As at the date of this announcement, Gentrack considers that all material information

has been disclosed to the market. In particular, Gentrack does not consider that it

holds any material information that one of the exceptions to continuous disclosure in

the NZX Listing Rules applies to.

On this basis, Gentrack is suspending the restrictions under its Share Trading Policy

that would ordinarily prohibit trading in Gentrack shares by all directors, officers,

employees, contractors or secondees of Gentrack and any of its subsidiaries until

Gentrack’s announcement of its half-yearly results. This includes suspending the

current “Blackout” period that prohibits such trading in Gentrack shares.

Gentrack’s Share Trading Policy continues to apply in all other respects.
