2022 Annual Meeting Addresses


The attached addresses will be given at Serko’s Annual Meeting which is to commence at 2.00pm

today (31 August 2022) and is being held online at http://www.virtualmeeting.co.nz/sko22


Chair’s Address – Claudia Batten

The first six months of this year have seen a dramatic increase in business travel. Alongside this

recovery, we are also seeing an evolution.

We continue to predict that overall volumes will return to pre-pandemic levels over time. But

business travel does not and will not look or feel the same. People will travel for work at

different frequencies, for different reasons and for different lengths of time than before.

And importantly, in this recovery we see new opportunities for how technology and Serko can

continue to shape the future of business travel.


Progress against our FY25 goals

In this context, our strategic priorities remain the right ones.

We are building Serko to be a global force - connecting business travelers everywhere with the

content, information and services they need at every stage of their journey.

Our proven record in Australasia, our partnership with Booking.com and our emerging presence

in North America underpin our global ambitions. We are well advanced in building a business

with the right settings to support this.

In unmanaged travel our aim is to establish significant market share working with Booking.com.

We are very pleased with the progress under this partnership and Darrin will provide more detail

on this.

The heart of our success in managed travel are our strong relationships with travel management

companies, many of which are long standing. In Australia and New Zealand, we are focused on

extending our market leadership, working closely with our TMC partners. And in North America,

we have laid solid groundwork and we are confident about the traction we have and the

sizeable opportunity that exists.


Investing for the opportunity

Our focus remains firmly on execution and building a globally competitive business.

We continue to make planned investments and pursue opportunities to build a global, scaled

business, underpinned by appropriate risk management and cost discipline.

Our FY22 revenue improved on FY21 while continuing to reflect the impact of the pandemic and

investments made ahead of recovery and investments in the Booking.com partnership.

Serko remains well funded. For the four months to the end of July, average cash burn is within

our expected range at $3.6 million

1

as we continue to invest in our technology. At the end of

July, cash and cash equivalents were $110.1 million.

We are aware that additional metrics would be helpful for shareholders to better understand our

progress. This needs to be balanced with the reality that many of our markets are new and in an

uneven recovery cycle. Accordingly, we will provide additional metrics as soon as practicable.


Disruption is at the heart of our philosophy

Disruption and change are both challenges to the business and a natural part of growing a

global business. They are also fuel for innovation and opportunity.

Serko was launched in 2007, immediately prior to the global financial crisis. We emerged

stronger from the GFC and we now have our heads down, building for the future alongside our

partners.

The core challenges we are responding to – alongside many other businesses - are attracting

and retaining the people we need, salary inflation and changing demands in the travel market.

The team at Serko has anticipated these trends and is executing on plans to respond to them.

Serko has an M&A strategy in place and we will continue to assess opportunities that would

enable us to accelerate our strategy. We have previously updated the market on a specific

acquisition under consideration. This process has not materially progressed and is not a current

focus for Serko.


1

Cash burn for 6 months to 31 March 2022 included the impact of non-recurring payments from customers as

reported at FY22 results. These additional receipts did not reverse in Q1 FY22 but are expected to reverse in Q2

FY22.

Building sustainable long-term business growth

Serko believes technology can play an important role in reducing the impact of travel on the

environment. We’ve identified a number of product opportunities arising from climate change

and in 2021 we launched Mission Zero in our Zeno booking platform. This allows customers to

actively reduce the environmental impact of their travel activity taking into account the seat

class and aircraft type, making it easy to identify and select more sustainable booking choices. It

also allows customers to offset certain carbon emissions when booking travel.

We are preparing for climate change reporting and have compiled our first carbon emissions

inventory, which is being externally assurance reviewed. In addition, we are preparing to meet

upcoming mandatory climate-change reporting standards.

We also believe in the power of supporting the communities in which we live and operate. We

actively provide opportunities for our people to support and volunteer in their communities. As

well as supporting our communities, these efforts are a core part of our strategy to attract and

retain talent.


Strengthening governance to support global growth

A vital part of scaling our operations is ensuring we have the right governance structures in

place.

Jan Dawson commenced as a new director at the end of last year’s ASM and a search for a

further independent director is continuing.

We have refreshed the responsibilities of all independent directors, who have each rotated into

a new role within the past 12 months. This has delivered fresh perspectives across all aspects of

governance while retaining critical knowledge within the Board. Clyde McConaghy moved from

Chair of the Audit & Risk Committee to the Chair of the People, Remuneration & Culture

Committee. Jan Dawson is the new Chair of the Audit & Risk Committee. Both Clyde and Jan

bring valuable and relevant expertise to these important governance roles. I greatly appreciate

the commitment and energy they both bring to the business.

The Board is also introducing a Technology Committee this calendar year. This advisory

committee will draw on global expertise to support our growth and scale objectives. It will build

on our existing capabilities and oversee strategic decisions and investments. I’m excited about

the value the committee will add at this stage of Serko’s growth.

CEO’s Address – Darrin Grafton


Our executive team

I’m delighted to have members of the executive team here today.


What’s in it for me?

As Claudia noted, we are now in a business travel evolution and the reimagining of how we will

travel both now and into the future. Across the globe people are trying to figure out how to

make travel work for them while adjusting to supply challenges as the industry comes back from

COVID. Month to month the recovery globally is neither predictable nor linear, but it is heading

in a positive direction.

People who are travelling for leisure are taking into account their personal health and safety, the

impact of potential disruptions during travel if they fall sick or travel providers cancel bookings,

as well as the cost of travel and insurance coverage.

People who travel for work are also taking these factors into account but are also asking

themselves: “What’s in it for me?”. This is leading to new approaches to business travel, which in

some cases is extending travel or adding room nights to incorporate some leisure aspect to their

business trip.

We call this Bleisure, where business and leisure are blended together in a single trip. Emerging

trends like these started before COVID but are becoming more obvious as we return to travel.

There have also been people employed that have never met their manager or their team face to

face. Remote working also provides an opportunity for new forms of business travel to occur,

where employees meet up or visit a head office for an extended period to meet their teams and

managers and immerse into the company culture.

We are confident that business travel will return to pre-pandemic levels over time, however, we

believe a different baseline for how the travel industry measures and thinks about those

volumes will emerge.

Having just returned from the GBTA Convention, the world’s largest business travel convention,

the energy in the global travel industry has never been more exciting. GBTA brought together

4,500 delegates and more than 1,000 buyers in San Diego, reconnecting, reimagining and

recreating the future of business travel. I’ll share more on this when I cover the North American

market.


FY22 results

The 2022 financial year was another year affected by the impacts of COVID and lockdowns.

Revenue grew by 44% to $17.9 million but this was partially offset by government grant revenue

being down 77% to $1.0 million.

Revenue growth was driven by a partial business travel recovery in Australasia over the previous

financial year, a strong contribution from Booking.com for Business and a modest increase in

revenue from North American markets. These gains were diluted by the lockdown and travel

restrictions in New Zealand throughout the third and fourth quarters of the financial year.

EBITDAF losses increased 26% to $28.1 million from $22.3 million in the same period a year ago.

This increase reflects planned investment in operating expenses as we scale up for global

growth. Net losses after tax increased 22% to $36 million from $29.4 million.


Progress against our FY25 goals

The two areas of our strategic priorities I will focus on today are:

• Progress on Booking.com for Business including conversion, and

• North America.


Booking.com for Business progress

We have a strong partnership with Booking.com and our teams work incredibly closely together.

Since May as the restrictions on travel have further eased, we have met three times face to face,

which has been fantastic.

The path to where we are today with Booking.com started off differently before COVID.

Our intention in 2019 was to roll out country by country, building out the content and user

experience for each market as we went.

In July 2020, four months into the pandemic, Booking.com and Serko decided to take on a

large-scale global migration program for customers in a select group of the previous

Booking.com for Business customer base.

Incorporated in New Zealand ARBN 611 613 980


From March to October 2021 we migrated over 300,000 companies registered on Booking.com

for Business and to date in total there are now almost 500,000 companies registered on the

platform.

We now have two priorities. Our first is to grow revenue by focusing on customer conversion.

Our second, as conversion grows, is to use marketing investment to increase the number of

registered companies.


Booking.com for Business conversion

From April to June of this year, we worked closely with Booking.com to run experiment-led

development and user experience tests to improve customer conversion.

As part of this, we carried out testing to determine whether a user’s experience at the ‘hotel-

only’ shop phase led to increased conversion if it was more aligned to the Booking.com

experience and understand how they also handled the leisure aspects of purchasing.

This testing was completed in July and delivered significantly increased conversion.

For the remainder of the year we are therefore focusing our Booking.com for Business

development teams on building a hotel shop experience for Booking.com for Business

customers to better reflect the aspects of the Booking.com user experience. We will then use

this new experience to iterate more and more business features over the coming years.

While the development work is occurring, a transitional solution is using elements of the

Booking.com environment for most Booking.com for Business customers when they make a

hotel-only booking. Connected trip bookings and a portion of Booking.com for Business

customers continue to use the full original Zeno experience.

The successful experimentation and testing process, implementation of a transitional solution

and commencement of development work has taken place in a rapid timeframe, reflecting the

strong and agile partnership in place between the Booking.com and Serko teams. I thank these

teams for their commitment and focus in carrying out this important work.

The focus on experimentation and the insights that this can give us when deciding where we put

our capital will be a foundation of how we maximize the growth of the Booking.com for Business

platform. This approach enables us to follow the success Booking.com have had in leisure

business and gives us more certainty around the impacts of our investment and the returns we

can expect from these developments.

We will report Booking.com for Business measurements as part of our half and full-year

reporting.

Managed travel (Australasian transactions)

In the context of the pandemic, the Australia and New Zealand business has performed

exceptionally well. Not only have we retained the majority of our customers through the

pandemic, we have also grown market share. Since the start of this financial year, our travel

management partners have collectively won key large market accounts in the Australian market

off our competitors through selling Zeno.

In Australasia, we’ve seen total bookings using Serko technology rise from 78% of 2019 levels in

March to 101% in June. Note however that June 2022 had two more business days than 2019

and on a per business day basis June was just over 90% of 2019.

Australasian volumes to the end of July reflected the recovery underway as companies set new

budgets and travel plans.

As indicated in our full year we have released new features including sustainability choices for

travel and improved Duty of Care.

We are pleased with the recovery in our home markets and the new customer wins that our

partners are making. We attribute this success to our investment during the last two years of

COVID, which is a reflection of our strategy and support from the market.

We remain focused on increasing our market share and average revenue per booking as the

return to travel continues.


Managed Travel: Driving into North America

North America has been top of mind the last few weeks as I spent time at the GBTA Convention.

While GBTA is a global event there is a heavy focus on North America and many of our partners

were out in force and more enthusiastic than ever.

The functionality and usability of our Zeno platform versus competitors were highlights of the

feedback we received. I was also delighted with our growing brand recognition and comments

on the strength of our implementation and delivery. During the GBTA Convention, Kim Hamer,

the travel manager for Visa, was named 2022 Travel Manager of the Year by Business Travel

News, and her choice of Serko was specifically cited in her recognition.

This is the second time in the past four years that a Serko customer has won the award at GBTA

in the United States. It shows that our investment into Zeno can make a difference in one of the

largest travel markets in the world.

Our strategy in North America is built around three pillars: Mega travel management companies,

mid-market travel management companies and direct to corporate.

Overall, we have laid strong foundations in North America and we are now in the grow and scale

phase.

In May we announced we were appointed a global preferred partner for CWT, one of the mega

travel management companies. This is a critical cornerstone for North America and gives us

tremendous access to the market. We also announced that Visa had selected Zeno as its

corporate booking tool and is live via CWT and transacting across North and South America and

the Asia Pacific region.

North America is a large market that takes time to develop and we have been impacted for over

two years by the constraints on travel due to COVID. We are now benefiting from the

investment we made during this time in our brand and product development work. However, we

want to highlight that it will take time for us to gain material revenue as we scale up to meet

demand and our partners onboard customers through the return to travel.

We remain confident in our pipeline of opportunities in a sizeable market and expect to close

further partnerships and large customers during the financial year.


People

Firstly, to Serko’s employees - thank you. Thank you for your ongoing commitment, hard work

and results. The world continues to surprise us but you continue to be focused and dedicated

and a pleasure to work with.

In the past few months there has been a slight improvement in the availability of technology

skills, however the employment market remains challenging. Our time to hire has improved

following our decision to insource recruitment for a greater number of roles. We are also

focused on internal advancement opportunities to increase retention as well as enhancing our

graduate recruitment and internship programmes. Beyond competitive salaries, we also

continuously review the total benefits we offer as well as the employee experience, including

onboarding and engagement events such as our hackathon.

While the market remains challenging, I am confident that the emphasis we placed on attraction

and retention during the pandemic, including an always-on approach to talent attraction and

recruitment, has meant we have not been at a standing start at a time when we are focused on

investing for growth.

Thank you

To my management team, thank you for constantly going over and above, it is greatly valued by

myself and the Board. To all of the directors, and a particular thanks to Claudia, thank you for

your guidance and for your support during another significant year for Serko.

To our partners, clients and end consumers, thank you for trusting us with your travel. We love

what we do, and we love helping you travel to be together.

And finally to our shareholders. Your commitment is really appreciated. We are working

tirelessly to deliver on our goals and have every intention of exceeding your expectations. And

most importantly thank you for your questions and your feedback.

It really is great to see so many of you in person – and to those online and in the broader Serko

family. Thank you.


Chairperson’s Address (contd)

In conclusion, we remain confident in the direction of business travel and Serko’s role in the

recovery and beyond.

As signalled we are increasing our rate of investment into our products and markets to support

future growth. We are able to do so due to our confidence in the opportunities in front of us

and our strong cash position. We remain committed both to prudent cash management and

investment for growth.

We reaffirm the guidance provided in May and expect revenue for the year to 31 March 2023 to

approximately double from the prior year. Our guidance remains subject to ongoing risks

including geo-political uncertainty, the potential resurgence of COVID and other matters.

Thank you to my fellow directors. Thank you to Darrin and his management team and the

broader Serko family. The commitment by the team to execution is substantial. I also thank you,

our shareholders, for your continued support. To echo Darrin we greatly appreciate your support

during a volatile period for the travel industry and for the technology market. We are laser

focused on what we can control, which is our execution.

Thank you again for being here today.
