Market Announcement
Gentrack Group Limited (NZX/ASX: GTK), a leading provider of software
solutions for utilities and airports, today released its results for the half-year to
31 March 2024.
Results Summary
• Revenue: $102m – up 21% on H1’23 and up 58% when excluding $19.7m
of one-off revenues in prior period from insolvent customers.
• EBITDA: $12.3m and tracking well against our FY24 guidance.
H1’23 EBITDA of $16m included one-off high margin revenue from
insolvent customers.
• Statutory NPAT: $5.3m profit v $7.9m in H1’23
• Cash: $39.3m after investing $12.9m in Amber during period v $41.9m at
H1’23
Across the first half of the financial year, Gentrack has again delivered strong
revenue growth, with even stronger underlying growth when allowing for one-
off revenues from last year. Growth is driven by recent and in-year new
customers as well as upsells and upgrades for existing customers. In Utilities
we have seen growth in all our core markets, (New Zealand, Australia, and the
UK), and this financial year we have added Saudi Arabia as a source of growth.
Veovo expanded its coverage of major airports with new wins in existing
markets such as the UK and the Middle East.
Financial performance
Revenues increased 21% over the prior year period to $102m. In Utilities, total
revenue grew by 17% to $86.5m. Underlying Utilities revenue, excluding
$19.7m of revenue from insolvent customers in the prior year period, grew by
60%. Major projects starting during the period including in Saudi Arabia (a new
customer secured in October 2023) and at Genesis Energy in New Zealand
helped drive our non-recurring revenues 85% higher to $28.9m. Whilst wins
and upsells from prior periods increased our underlying annual recurring
revenues by 49% over the prior period to $57.6m.
New customer wins in the UK and the Middle East have powered Veovo to a
49.4% increase in revenue over the prior period to $15.5m. The project work
to implement these wins alongside upgrades from existing customers have
driven non-recurring revenues 112% higher v H1’23 to $7.6m. This includes
$3.8m ($1.1m in H1’23) of revenue from sales of hardware and related services
sourced from our supplier network. Customer wins and upgrades from prior
2
periods have also pushed annual recurring revenues 16% higher than H1’23 to
$7.9m.
EBITDA at $12.3m is tracking well against guidance for FY24 and our NPAT was
$5.3m v $7.9m for the prior year period, which included one-off profits from
the exit of high margin customer, Bulb. We have continued to increase
investment in strategic R&D, all of which has been expensed, and are
increasing our sales & marketing spend to support our international expansion.
Our cash as of 31 March 2024 was $39.3m. This was after investing $12.9m in
a 10% stake in Amber funded partly out of cash generated during the period
and the remainder from the $49.2m cash balance from the end of the last
financial year.
Gentrack’s Utilities and Veovo businesses both operate in markets with strong
growth potential. The Board continues to believe that the best use of the
company’s capital is to continue to invest in growth. We have therefore
decided not to pay an interim dividend. We will continue to keep the use of
capital under review.
Growing our energy and water customers in our core markets
Our underlying growth in Utilities is a result of recent new customer wins
alongside upselling new products to our existing customers. We have also
started on the journey to upgrade existing customers to our new g2.0 solution
with Salesforce’s Energy and Utility Cloud embedded. In November 2023,
Genesis Energy selected our g2.0 solution to modernise their business and this
transformation program is now underway.
In February 2024, we announced our investment in Amber, an Australian based
technology company and energy retailer that gives customers direct access to
real time energy prices and the technology to automate their home batteries
and EVs. Part of the funds from the investment will be used by Amber to replace
their existing billing platform with Gentrack’s. Our investment also includes an
agreement that will see us work together to develop, and take to market, an
end-to-end solution for billing, care and optimisation for household batteries,
EV chargers and other smart devices to automate load shifting for customers.
Early discussions with our existing and target customers demonstrate high
levels of interest for this leading innovative solution.
We remain confident in growth in Australia where we hold a strong competitive
position and see near term opportunities to grow our customer base.
In the UK, to meet a major new regulatory change starting in 2025, energy
retailers will need to ensure their technology platforms can deliver Market-
wide Half Hourly Settlement (MHHS). We have developed this functionality and
during this half year secured the first two of our existing customers on this new
product with remaining customers expected to follow over the next 12 months.
3
We also secured our first upsell in the UK for our new profit & risk product. This
product enables utilities to achieve a step-change in their understanding of
their volumes and gross margin down to the meter level. Using configurable
dashboards it can provide insights over customer, product level and regional
profitability. It’s another example of how we can help utilities take advantage
of the increasing data flows within their business.
Targeting international expansion for Utilities
Following our first Utilities contract win in Saudi Arabia in October 2023, we
are making good progress deploying our g2.0 solution for both their energy
and water B2C customers. Successful delivery here will help us to build our
pipeline in the region as we target expansion in the wider Middle East.
In Singapore, we already serve the country’s B2C residential market at energy
retailer PacificLight. This half year, our platform has gone live at Senoko Energy
supporting B2B customers there. Our Asian business development team
based at our Singapore hub is making good progress in building our pipeline
for the wider South East Asian region, where we are focused on a few large,
key markets.
Growing our airport customers
In March 2024 we were pleased to announce our contract win at Manchester
Airports Group, which adds the major airports of Manchester and London
Stansted as well as the UK’s East Midlands airport to those using our Passenger
Predictability software.
During this half year, we have also seen our recent customer win in Saudi
Arabia expand its coverage of new airports in that country and have been
progressing our delivery to Dubai airports, also a new customer secured last
year.
Combined with strong demand for upgrades and expanded scope from
existing customers, this has delivered exceptional revenue growth at Veovo.
Revenue for this half year includes a high proportion of project revenues, both
professional services and hardware sales. However, these non-recurring
revenues will lead to higher annual recurring revenues in future periods and
Veovo’s pipeline over both new and existing customers remains strong.
Looking Forward
We have positioned Gentrack as a leader in innovation. We are excited to be
able to demonstrate the increasing value our platforms and new products can
bring to customers.
Both the utilities and airports industries are transforming at pace. They are
dynamic markets in a state of change, and we are confident in our ability to
lead these markets globally over time.
4
We’d like to thank our customers and shareholders for their continued support
and the entire Gentrack team for their achievements and for their commitment
to Gentrack’s future.
Guidance
Both Utilities and Veovo continue to grow strongly as a result of recent wins
and customer upgrades and so we are able to upgrade our previous revenue
guidance of at least $170m for FY24, to new guidance of c.$200m for FY24.
Against this higher revenue guidance, and whilst continuing to invest in
strategic R&D and international expansion, EBITDA is expected to be between
$23.5m and $26.5m (12%-13%). This compares to our previous guidance of
between c. $20.5m and $25.5m.

by recent and in-year new customers as well
as upsells and upgrades for existing

Australia, and the UK), and this financial year
we have added Saudi Arabia as a source of
growth. Veovo expanded its coverage of
major airports with new wins in existing
markets such as the UK and the Middle East.
Financial performance
Revenues increased 21% over the prior year
period to $102m. In Utilities, total revenue
grew by 17% to $86.5m. Underlying Utilities
revenue, excluding $19.7m of revenue from
insolvent customers in the prior year period,
grew by 60%. Major projects starting during
the period including in Saudi Arabia (a new
customer secured in October 2023) and at
Genesis Energy in New Zealand helped
drive our non-recurring revenues 85%
higher to $28.9m. Whilst wins and upsells
from prior periods increased our underlying
annual recurring revenues by 49% over the
prior period to $57.6m.
New customer wins in the UK and the
Middle East have powered Veovo to a
49.4% increase in revenue over the prior
period to $15.5m. The project work to
implement these wins alongside upgrades
from existing customers have driven non-
recurring revenues 112% higher v H1’23 to
$7.6m. This includes $3.8m ($1.1m in H1’23)
of revenue from sales of hardware and
related services sourced from our supplier
network. Customer wins and upgrades from
prior periods have also pushed annual
recurring revenues 16% higher than H1’23
to $7.9m.
EBITDA at $12.3m is tracking well against
guidance for FY24 and our NPAT was $5.3m
v $7.9m for the prior year period, which
included one-off profits from the exit of high
margin customer, Bulb. We have continued
to increase investment in strategic R&D, all
of which has been expensed, and are
increasing our sales & marketing spend to
support our international expansion.
Our cash as of 31 March 2024 was $39.3m.
This was after investing $12.9m in a 10%
stake in Amber funded partly out of cash
generated during the period and the
remainder from the $49.2m cash balance
from the end of the last financial year.
Gentrack’s Utilities and Veovo businesses
both operate in markets with strong growth
potential. The Board continues to believe
that the best use of the company’s capital is
to continue to invest in growth. We have
therefore decided not to pay an interim
dividend. We will continue to keep the use
of capital under review.
Growing our energy and water customers

Our underlying growth in Utilities is a result
of recent new customer wins alongside
upselling new products to our existing

GENTRACK INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS / 11
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These unaudited interim financial statements of Gentrack Group Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (together
“Gentrack Group”) have been prepared in accordance with the New Zealand equivalent of International Accounting
Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting (NZ IAS 34) and New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ
GAAP). In complying with NZ IAS 34, these statements comply with International Accounting Standard 34: Interim
Financial Reporting.
Gentrack Group is a profit-oriented entity for financial reporting purposes.
The Company is an FMC entity for the purposes of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and is listed on the New
Zealand Stock Exchange (NZX) and the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX).
These unaudited consolidated condensed interim financial statements of Gentrack Group for the six months ended
31 March 2024 have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of computation as, and should
be read in conjunction with, the financial statements and related notes included in Gentrack Group’s Annual Report
for the year ended 30 September 2023.
2. OPERATING SEGMENTS
Gentrack Group currently operates in two business segments: utility billing software and airport management software.
These segments have been determined based on the reports reviewed by the Board (Chief Operating Decision Maker)
to make strategic decisions.
In the table below we split the revenues between point in time and over time recognition: Over time recognition is
when the fulfilment of our obligation to provide goods and services and the customer’s ability to obtain the benefit
from that occurs continuously over a period of time. Point in time recognition is where that happens at a point in time.
Revenue recognised over time include annual fees, support services and project revenues recognised over the stages
of completion. Revenue recognised at a point in time includes the part of our managed services revenue which is
recognised when the customer benefits have been confirmed and, within our Veovo business, hardware sales included
as part of the implementation of a project.
The assets and liabilities of Gentrack Group are reported to and reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker in
total and are not allocated by business segment. Therefore, operating segment assets and liabilities are not disclosed.

9. SHARE CAPITAL
10. RELATED PARTIES
Key management personnel that have the authority and responsibility for planning, directing, and controlling the
activities of Gentrack Group, directly or indirectly and include the Directors, the Chief Executive Officer and their direct
reports.
Key management personnel compensation for the period which includes the accounting charge for LTIs was $8.7m
(2023: $5.8m). Directors fees were $0.3m for the period (2023: $0.3m).
Related parties are materially consistent with those disclosed in the 2023 Annual Report.
11. EMPLOYEE SHARE SCHEME
At the Special Shareholders meeting, held on 9th October 2023, shareholders approved the issue of up to 9,437,000
performance rights in total for the CEO and senior management under the Senior Leadership Long Term Incentive
Scheme in respect of the financial years ending 30 September 2024, 2025, and 2026. These performance rights are
subject to achieving both EPS and share price appreciation hurdles. The Earnings Per Share (EPS) hurdle is set at fixed
rates for each vesting year and for the share price appreciation hurdle an incremental vesting scale applies for
performance rights eligible to vest.
To determine the fair value of each grant made under this scheme for accounting purposes, a weighted estimate of the
number of shares expected to vest is made based on the probability of each share price appreciation hurdle being met
at each vesting date. These probabilities have been derived by considering the published guidance (available at the
date each grant is awarded) of market analysts over Gentrack’s share price and future growth. The weighted estimate
assumes an 80% probability that the share price reached at vesting dates lies within the range created using this
guidance. However, varying this assumption by 5% up or down does not significantly affect the accounting charge
derived from this valuation model.
For grants made in prior financial years under the Senior Leadership Long Term Incentive performance rights are
subject to a combination of tenure and a share price appreciation hurdle, split evenly and that will vest after 18 months
and three years respectively, dependent on achievement of the period of service and performance hurdle. For the
CEO, performance rights granted in prior financial years under CEO Long Term Incentive Scheme, performance rights
are subject to a combination of tenure and performance hurdles vesting across a 3 year period from the date of grant.
The performance hurdles are either dependent on EPS CAGR or Share Price Appreciation.
The Group also operates the Gentrack Long Term Incentive Scheme for selected key employees who are not part of
the Senior Leadership Long Term Incentive Scheme. These performance rights are subject to the participants
continuing to be employed by Gentrack Group at the end of the vesting period.

13. GOODWILL
Goodwill is stated at its initial fair value less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is allocated to cash-
generating units and is not amortised but is tested annually or when indicators of impairment are present.
14. IMPAIRMENT TESTING
At each reporting date, Gentrack Group assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. For
the period ended 31 March 2024 no indicators of impairment were present and as a result no impairment testing was
required to be carried out.
15. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Gentrack Group’s financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost.
Gentrack Group’s financial assets and liabilities by category are summarised as follows:
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash at bank including cash held on short term deposits and the carrying
amount is equivalent to fair value.
TRADE RECEIVABLES
These assets are short term in nature and are reviewed for impairment; the carrying value approximates to their fair
value.
TRADE PAYABLES
These liabilities are mainly short term in nature with the carrying value approximating to their fair value.
FAIR VALUES
Gentrack Group’s financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair values are grouped
into levels based on the degree to which their fair value is observable:
Level 1 – fair value measurements derived from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
Level 2 – fair value measurements derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability
which are not based on observable market data.
There have been no transfers between levels or changes in the valuation methods used to determine the fair value of
Gentrack Group’s financial instruments during the period. At 31 March 2024, Gentrack Group has no level 3 financial
instruments (2023: $Nil).

Independent Auditor’s Review Report
To the shareholders Gentrack Group Limited
Conclusion
We have reviewed the interim consolidated financial statements of Gentrack Group Limited and its
subsidiaries (together “the Group”) which comprise the consolidated condensed statement of financial
position as at 31 March 2024, and the consolidated condensed statement of comprehensive income,
consolidated condensed statement of changes in equity and consolidated condensed statement of
cash flows for the six months ended on that date, and other explanatory information. Based on our
review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim
consolidated financial statements of the Group do not present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Group as at 31 March 2024, and its financial performance and its cash flows
for the six months ended on that date, in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International
Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting (NZ IAS 34) and International Accounting
Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34).
This report is made solely to the Company’s shareholders, as a body. Our review has been undertaken
so that we might state to the Company’s shareholders those matters we are required to state to them
in a review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept
or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company’s shareholders as a
body, for our review procedures, for this report, or for the conclusion we have formed.
Basis for conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) Review of Financial Statements
Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. Our responsibilities are further described in the
Auditor’s responsibilities for the review of the financial statements section of our report. We are
independent of the Group in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements in New Zealand
relating to the audit of the annual financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these ethical requirements.
Ernst & Young provides statutory account filing services to Veovo A/S. Partners and employees of our
firm may deal with the Group on normal terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the
business of the Group. We have no other relationship with, or interest in, the Group.
Directors’ responsibility for the interim consolidated financial statements
The directors are responsible, on behalf of the Entity, for the preparation and fair presentation of the
interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International
Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting and for such internal control as the directors
determine is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the interim consolidated
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited
Auditor’s responsibilities for the review of the interim consolidated financial statements
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim consolidated financial statements based on
our review. NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our
attention that causes us to believe that the interim consolidated financial statements, taken as a
whole, are not prepared in all material respects, in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to
International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting.
A review of interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is a
limited assurance engagement. We perform procedures, consisting of making enquiries, primarily of
persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review
procedures. The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an
audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and
consequently do not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant
matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on those
interim consolidated financial statements.
The engagement partner on the review resulting in this independent auditor’s review report is Grant
Taylor.

Outlook: Upgrade for FY24 Revenue and EBITDA
Both Utilities and Veovo continue to grow strongly as a result ofrecent wins and customer
upgrades and so we are able toupgrade our previous revenue guidance of at least $170m
for FY24, to new guidance of c.$200m for FY24.Against this higher revenue guidance, and
whilst continuing to invest in strategic R&D and international expansion, EBITDA is expected
to be between $23.5m and $26.5m (12%-13%).This compares to our previous guidance of
between c. $20.5m and $25.5m.

Both the airport and utilities industries are undergoing major transformation as is evidenced by Gentrack’s
strong growth.They are great industries.
Gentrack’s stated ambition is to grow more than15% CAGR over the medium term.
For utilities, our core markets are modernizing in advance of most countries.The strong growth in these
markets validates the scale of change other countries will need to undergo.
In Europe, the Middle East and AsiaPacour pipeline is strengthening and maturing.We have had early
international success, but due to sales cycles, we do not expect to have material contracts signed until FY25.
For Veovo, our focus on major airports is paying off.The industry is taking steps to transform and digitize
which we are well placed to win and serve.
We will continue to assess M&A opportunities as they arise.
We continue to add blue chip investors to the register (69% institutional investors at April 30th) and we want
to thank an engaged investor community for participating on this exciting journey.
