Market Release

1 October 2020

Capital raise to accelerate the execution of growth opportunities

Serko Limited (NZX/ASX:SKO) (“Serko”), a leader in online travel booking and expense management for

the business travel market, today announced it is conducting an equity raising of up to NZ$55 million to

accelerate and execute on the opportunities arising from a changing business travel market.

Serko plans to raise the capital via the issuance of ordinary shares in Serko by way of a NZ$45 million

fully underwritten placement ("Placement") and a NZ$10 million non-underwritten share purchase plan

("SPP") (together, the "Offer").

Darrin Grafton, CEO of Serko, said: “The COVID-19 pandemic is creating opportunities for us to

accelerate the development and rollout of our technology to support our Travel Management Company

(TMC) and reseller partners.

“In recent months, we have received inbound demand from these organisations as they consider, plan

and request accelerated timetables to onboard new customers, deliver new features and expand existing

partnerships. This demand has exceeded our expectations and is highlighting increased opportunities

from a changing travel industry.”

While Serko has $33.6 million of cash on its balance sheet, the timing of meaningful revenue generation

is uncertain. Therefore Serko is raising capital to further prepare for growth opportunities and to ensure a

prudent approach with regards to capital management in this COVID-19 affected environment.

Mr Grafton said: “Serko’s priority is to ensure it has the resource and capacity to execute on its strategic

priorities, positioning the company for growth when business travel normalises and to capitalise on

opportunities arising from changes to the travel industry.

“Serko’s Board and management consider the company’s market positioning and growth prospects within

the travel industry remain significant over the medium to long-term, notwithstanding the impact of the

COVID-19 pandemic on the business travel industry. It also remains confident in the recovery of business

travel over time.

“Nevertheless, as we indicated at our annual shareholders meeting in August, we are unable to forecast

our likely operating revenue for the 2021 financial year with any certainty,” Mr Grafton said.

The proceeds from the equity raise will be used to:

• Accelerate the development of our globally scalable, localised travel platform, allowing us to be

well positioned for recovery as business travel increases. Serko is progressively scaling-up to

bring the power of Zeno to the global market.

• Support increased demand for customer and reseller onboarding to drive volume across all

markets, particularly in Europe and North America.

• Expand the breadth and depth of content channels across all markets, responding to new and

changing business traveler needs.

• Enhance customer experience functionality for changing market requirements.

• Continue to scale the technology platform for international expansion.

• Fund small M&A growth opportunities, aligned to strategy, if and when they arise.

• Provide Serko with additional balance sheet flexibility to respond to changes in the business

environment.

Details of the Equity Raise

Placement

The Placement will be conducted today through a bookbuild in which institutional and other select

investors in New Zealand, Australia, Hong Kong, United Kingdom and Singapore will be invited to

participate by Craigs Investment Partners Limited and Ord Minnett Limited. A trading halt has been

granted by NZX and ASX prior to the market opening today.

The Placement will be fully underwritten by Craigs Investment Partners Limited and Ord Minnett Limited.

The Placement will raise gross proceeds of approximately NZ$45 million and is underwritten at a floor

price of NZ$4.35 per share, which represents a 3.5% discount to the last closing price of NZ$4.51 per

share on 30 September 2020 and a discount of 4.6% to the 5-day VWAP of NZ$4.56 ending on 30

September 2020.

Share Purchase Plan

Serko intends to offer the SPP to eligible existing Serko shareholders with a registered address in New

Zealand or Australia, enabling them to subscribe for up to NZ$50,000 / A$46,500 of new Serko shares.

The SPP offer size is up to NZ$10 million, and if scaling of the SPP is required, it will be done with

reference to the shareholders' existing holdings of Serko shares at the record date of 30 September 2020.

Serko can accept oversubscriptions at its absolute discretion. The price of the Serko shares offered

under the SPP will be the lower of the Placement price or the five-day VWAP during the last five trading

days prior to, and including, the SPP closing date (being 22 October 2020).

Serko assesses that the SPP will cater for a high majority of Serko’s non institutional shareholders,

enabling them to participate and potentially increase their relative percentage holdings in Serko.

The final terms of the SPP are expected to be announced in more detail on 7 October 2020. An SPP

Booklet, together with an application form, will be sent to eligible shareholders on 7 October 2020 and will

be available on the website established for the SPP on the same day. The closing date for applications

by eligible shareholders is 22 October 2020.

Eligible shareholders wishing to acquire Serko shares under the SPP will need to complete the

application form, or apply online via the website at www.serkoshareoffer.com. Eligible shareholders may

choose to take up their entitlements in whole, in part or not at all.

ACCELERATING TO EXECUTE ON THE OPPORTUNITIES OF A
CHANGING BUSINESS TRAVEL MARKET

6

•Serko’s Board and management consider Serko’s market positioning and growth prospects within the travel industry

remain significant over the medium to long-term, notwithstanding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the

business travel industry, and remain confident in the recovery of business travel over time.

•The COVID-19 pandemic is a rare event that is reshaping parts of the business travel industry, impacting both the

suppliers of business travel content and services and the needs of the business traveller.

•In recent months, we have received inbound demand from our Travel Management Company (TMC)resellers and

partners considering, planning and requesting accelerated timetables to onboard new customers, deliver new features

and expand existing partnerships. This demand has exceeded our expectations and is highlighting increased

opportunities from a changing travel industry.

•Serko’s priority is to ensure it has the resource and capacity to execute on its strategic priorities, positioning the

company for growth when business travel normalises and to capitalise on opportunities arising from changes to the

travel industry.

•Serko is raising capital to further prepare for these growth opportunities and to ensure a prudent approach with

regards to capital management.

*

FOUNDATIONS OF THE PATH TO $100 MILLION REVENUE

•As previously announced, Serko is targeting $100 million in revenue over the medium term, although the pandemic is

likely to have slowed the timing of achieving that goal.

AUSTRALASIA MARKET UPDATE
8

•Serko occupies a strong market position in Australasia, with the majority of Serko’s revenues coming from domestic

bookings in Australia and New Zealand.

•The lifting of travel restrictions in New Zealand (following the adoption of Alert Level 1 in mid-June) resulted in

transactions rebounding to approximately 70% of pre-COVID transaction volumes (measured against equivalent days in

2019), before declining again when further travel restrictions were imposed in August 2020 (refer to page 18 for more

details).

•Travel transaction volumes are currently running at approximately 30% of last year’s corresponding period volumes for

Australasia as at 20 September 2020 (refer to page 18 for more details).

•We continue to onboard new customers from our TMC resellers (including Flight Centre & Orbit).

•The number of corporates transacting in July 2020 was 3,900 up from a low of 1,725 in April 2020.This fell to 3,500 in

August 2020 due to New Zealand’s second lock down and increased travel restrictions in Australia. Prior to COVID-19,

over 6,800 corporates were transacting on Serko’s platform.

•The percentage of transactions occurring on our premium Zeno product remains around 35%* of total transactions, up

from 25% of total transactions at the end of March 2020.

* Month to date for September 2020, in-line with July 2020 (as reported at the 2020 Annual Meeting)

NORTH AMERICA MARKET UPDATE
9

* There is no guarantee that these negotiations will result in a signed agreement on the terms currently envisaged or at all

•During FY20, Serko invested heavily in the Serko Zeno platform for expansion into the North American market and had

its first live bookings following beta release in September 2019.

•Currently booking volumes are low, however, this market provides a significant growth opportunity over time and Serko

has continued to expand its reseller base in this market.

•Serko has recently:

•Added tailored North American content and integrations that helped Serko win its largest customer to date in

this market –ZS Associates

•Signed Zeno Expense reseller partnership with buying group Omnia Partners

•Added four new TMC resellers since 31 March 2020, bringing the total to nine resellers, and is in the process of

activating these partners

•Serko is in advanced stages of negotiation for a large direct contract with a US Fortune 500 company*.

BOOKING.COM UPDATE
10

•In October 2019, Booking Holdings Inc. made a cornerstone investment in Serko, and Booking.com expanded its

existing agreement with Serko so that Booking.com can offer and promote a white label of the Zeno platform to its

business traveller customers.

•This partnership continues to offer exciting growth opportunities for Serko, notwithstanding the COVID-19 pandemic,

and the potential large-scale roll-out gives Serko access to a much larger addressable market as travel activity recovers

over time.

•The Zeno Booking.com for Business platform went live in May 2020, with pilot programs implemented across the

United Kingdom and Ireland. A pilot was also launched in Germany in early September 2020.

•It is expected that potential customers will be able to sign-up to the new Zeno powered version of Booking.com for

Business as the product is made available in additional markets, following the successful completion of the pilot

launches.

•Serko and Booking.com continue to have a collaborative partnership, with both parties working to bring a best-in-class

business travel tool to customers globally.Serko is progressively scaling-up to achieve this.

Notwithstanding Serko has $33.6 million cash on its balance sheet, the timing of meaningful revenue generation is uncertain,

therefore the Board of Serko is adopting a prudent approach with regards to capital management in this COVID-19 environment,

and is raising capital to position the company for growth.

•The pandemic has had a substantial impact on the operations and economics of Serko:

•Serko’s travel transaction volumes are at approximately 30% of prior year volumes as at 20 September 2020 (and reached

as low as 9% in April 2020 compared to the previous comparable period)

•Total revenue estimate for the six month period to 30 September is $4.5 million to $5 million*(down ~65% on the previous

comparable period)

•Accordingly, as announced to the market on 19 August 2020, Serko reduced its cash spend to target an average monthly

cash burn of $2 million per month by reducing the overall size of the team and reprioritising project spend, and has not

been investing as fast as it would like to take advantage of growth opportunities being presented to it

•Serko’s priority is to ensure it has the resource and capacity to execute on its strategic priorities, positioning the company for

growth when business travel normalises and to capitalise on opportunities arising from changes to the travel industry, and asa

result is increasing cash burn to a target of $2 –4 million per month (refer to page 20 for further details).

Serko is raising capital to position the business and prepare for growth opportunities in a materially changed operating environment.

* Revenue excludes income from grants and finance income. Revenue estimate is management’s estimate and subject to final September results

and finalisation of accounting adjustments for the six-month period. The Half Year report is due to be released to the market in November. Refer to

page 16.

•Serko considers its market positioning and growth prospects within the business travel industry remains significant over the medium to

long-term, notwithstanding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and remains confident in the recovery of business travel over time.

•Inbound demand (referred to on page 6) has exceeded our expectations and is highlighting increased opportunities from a changing

travel industry. Serko is raising capital to accelerate its global expansion, execute on its strategic priorities, and capture thesenew inbound

growth opportunities.

•Funds from the Capital Raising will be used for:

1. Acceleration

•Accelerate the development of our globally scalable, localized travel platform, allowing us to be well positioned for recovery as

business travel increases, following the successful completion of our pilot launches. Serko is progressively scaling-up to bring the

power of Zeno to the global market.

•Support increased demand for customer and reseller onboarding to drive volume across all markets, particularly in Europe and

North America.

2. Evolving Corporate Traveller Needs

•Expand the breadth and depth of content channels across all markets, responding to new and changing business traveler needs.

•Enhance customer experience functionality for changing market requirements.

3. Scale

•Continue to scale the technology platform for international expansion.

•Fund small M&A growth opportunities, aligned to strategy, if and when they arise. In this respect, Serko continues to regularly

receive inbound approaches from companies wishing to be acquired by Serko.

•Australasian travel bookings increased between April and July 2020 as travel

restrictions were lifted in New Zealand and counterbalanced by continuing low levels

of Australian domestic travel.

•At its peak in July 2020, we saw a return of around 30% of the transacting volume

booked in July 2019 (pre-COVID).

•We don’t currently expect bookings to increase meaningfully above this level until

Australian businesses start travelling domestically again.

•The lifting of travel restrictions in New Zealand saw transactions resume to up to 70%

of booking volumes on equivalent days in 2019, before declining again when further

travel restrictions were imposed in August 2020.

•New Zealand transactions are starting to recover again with the lifting of the latest

travel restrictions.

•There is still limited domestic travel occurring within Australia, which is currently

averaging 23% of the transaction volume booked during the same period last year.

•While international travel is expected to be delayed, Serko’s main source of booking

revenue is from domestic travel (93% for FY20).

•During FY20, Trans-Tasman travel represented 3-4% of booking revenue. Other

international travel represented 3% of booking revenue.

•Serko is well positionedforgrowthwhentrading conditionsimproveand the business travel industry starts to recover.

•Timing,however,remains uncertain.As a result, we are unable to forecast our likely operating revenue for the 2021 financial

year with any certainty.

•Serko has included assumptions in its forecasts that travel will be in the range of 40-70% of pre-COVID levels by March 2021

(based on the trends noted on page 18). However, if Australia and New Zealand business travel remains restricted, we expect

transactions to be at the lower end of this range.

•As at 31 August 2020,Serko had net cash and cash equivalents of $33.6million.

•Serko is targeting an average monthly cash burn of between $2 million and $4 million during the remainder of FY21 and

through to FY22, dependent on travel resumption and achievement of key performance metrics (including the Booking.com

opportunity and NORAM customer onboarding).

SERKO STRATEGY

KEY RISKS
25

Like any investment, there are risks associated with an investment in Serko shares. Before investing in Serko, you should be aware than an investment in Serko has a number of risks, some of

which are specific to Serko and some of which relate to listed securities generally, and many of which are beyond the controlofSerko. Additionally, some risks may be unknown and other

risks, currently believed to be immaterial, could turn out to be material. Whilst the section below aims to highlight some of the key risks, it is not exhaustive.

Investors should be aware that the spread of COVID-19 and the actions taken in response by governments in New Zealand and other countries, including border controls and travel

restrictions, and the resulting effects on the global economy have had, and are likely to continue to have, a material adverse effect on Serko, its financial performance and position, liquidity,

financial condition and results of operations. It is also likely that there will be further unforeseen negative impacts from theCOVID-19 pandemic, of an as-yet unknown magnitude and

duration. It is not currently clear when these negative impacts will begin to abate. Serko will continue to respond to the challenges facing it, but there is no certainty as to the severity or

likelihood of such unforeseen impacts arising nor whether any mitigating action can be taken or will be effective.

Before deciding whether to invest in Serko shares, you must make your own assessment of the risks associated with the investment, including the inherent uncertainties due to the impact of

COVID-19 noted above, and consider whether such an investment is suitable for you having regard to all other Serko continuous disclosure announcements and publicly available information,

and consult your financial adviser and other professional advisers.

Travel industry disruption and the impact of COVID-19

Serko's operating and financial performance is dependent on the health of the travel industry generally. A decline in the domestic and/or international travel industry, whether as the result of

a particular event (such as a war, terrorist attack, outbreak of disease epidemic/pandemic or a natural disaster, such as earthquakes or volcanic ash clouds), economic conditions (such as a

decrease in consumer and business demand), or any other factors would have a material adverse effect on Serko's operating andfinancial performance.

The events relating to COVID-19 have resulted in unprecedented restrictions on domestic and international travel, major reductions in airline capacity and general disruption to the tourism

industry. These developments have resulted in declining demand for international and domestic travel and tourism services (including hotels, accommodation and tourism activities) and an

increase in travel cancellation rates, which has had a significant short term impact and is expected to have a significant medium term impact on Serko's business and operations and, in

particular, the demand for its services. The status of the response to COVID-19 continues to evolve, and it is uncertain how long these restrictions will remain in place, and what other counter-

measures may be implemented to restrict travel in response to COVID-19, both in New Zealand and internationally. Furthermore, itis unclear what the longer term impact on international and

domestic travel will be, even after current government restrictions and border closures are lifted. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, international travel preferences could shift, having an

impact on future demand for international and domestic travel. There is no certainty that demand for Serko's services will normalise to a level existing prior to the impact of COVID-19 (or how

long such normalisation could take), even once the domestic and international travel restrictions are lifted.

KEY RISKS
26

Information technology and cybersecurity risk

Serko relies on the performance, reliability and availability of its information technology, communication and other businesssystems. Any damage or interruption to, or failure of, Serko's

key systems may result in significant disruptions to Serko's business. Any failures of, or malicious attacks on, Serko's business systems, a breach of Serko's cybersecurity measures or any

other compromise to the security of data (including any personal information / data) held by Serko may similarly impact both Serko's business and its reputation. Financial penalties for

data breaches can be significant, which if levied on Serko could have an adverse effect on the reputation and the financial performance of Serko.

General economic conditions

Serko's operating and financial performance is influenced by a variety of general economic and business conditions in New Zealand and overseas. A prolonged deterioration in general

economic conditions, including a decrease in consumer and business demand, would likely have a material adverse effect on Serko's business or financial condition (or both). This risk is

heightened in the current uncertain economic environment.

In light of recent New Zealand and global macroeconomic events, including but not limited to the global impact of COVID-19, it is forecast that New Zealand and Australia will

experience an economic downturn of uncertain severity and duration which is likely to affect spending on travel by businessesand the operating and financial performance of Serko.

Furthermore, containment measures implemented in response to COVID-19 are expected to result in significant and prolonged dislocation to economies globally, including in many of

the markets in which Serko operates, which could affect spending on travel in those markets, which would in turn impact on the operating and financial performance of Serko.

Market volatility of Serko's shares

Any investment in equity capital carries general risks. Serko's shares are currently listed on NZX and ASX and are subject to the usual market-related forces which impact on Serko's

share price. There can be no assurance that trading in the shares following the offer will not result in the share price tradingat levels below the price paid by investors in the offer. The

equity markets have in recent times been subject to pronounced volatility due to the continuing impacts of COVID-19. There is nocertainty that this recent volatility will not continue or

worsen, which could have a materially adverse impact on the market price of Serko's shares.

Factors such as the risk factors disclosed in this presentation as well as other factors could cause the market price of Serko'sshares to decline or to materially fluctuate. It also is possible

that new market risks may develop as a result of the New Zealand or Australian markets experiencing extreme stress, or due toexisting risks (including the impacts of COVID-19)

manifesting themselves in ways that are not currently foreseeable.

A weakening in the New Zealand dollar as against other currencies will cause the value of the shares to decline in any portfoliowhich is denominated in a currency other than New

Zealand dollars.
