Market Announcement

For immediate release


Strategy delivery in a shifting landscape


Strong first half trading for AoFrio (“AOF”) produced H1-25 revenue growth of 12.2% over the same period

last year. EBITDA for H1-25 was above plan at $0.7m compared to a $1.1m last year, with the reduction

attributable to one-off costs and costs associated with AOF’s expansion into new products and markets.


The Company’s Interim Report has been released today.


The year started strongly with Q1-25 revenue 43.9% higher. Q2-25 revenue was 11.9%% lower with

volumes impacted by global trade issues resulting from the uncertainty of imposition of tariffs by the USA.

Some customers took early delivery of orders in Q1-25 in anticipation of the imposition of tariffs.


• Revenue for H1-25 was $43.0m, a 12.2% increase compared to $38.4m for H1-24.

• IoT revenue was flat at $21.7m, a decrease of 0.1%. The number of hardware units supplied was

3.7% lower at 314,000.

• Revenue from the sale of motor products increased 28.4% to $21.3m, from $16.6m in 2024. The

number of motors supplied increased 26.9%.

• Gross Margin was 29.6% (30.0% in H1-24). IoT was 40.9% (40.1% in H1-24) and motors 18.0%

(16.9% in H1-24).

• Operating Costs for H1-25 were $11.9m compared to $10.5m in 2024.

• EBITDA was a surplus of $0.7m, $0.4m lower than over the comparable period in 2024 but above

plan.

• Cash at 30 June 2025 was $2.0m ($2.1m at 31 December 2024) and the Company had borrowed

$8.9m under its $10m trade finance facility ($4.2m at 31 December 2024).


In H1-25, AOF secured its first significant food retail order in March following completion of a proof-of-

concept trial. This solution is for a New Zealand convenience store chain with 115 stores, significantly

improving the automation of temperature monitoring and alerting. AOF is seeing inbound customer enquiry

for food retail solutions.


Significant progress has been made on strategy implementation. AOF launched AoFrio IQ, AoFrio’s new AI

enabled SaaS platform, and AoFrio’s SCS800 cellular controller. In H2-25, AOF will launch new motor fan

sizes to support sales of the 13w and 25w ECR2 motors.


2025 Outlook

AOF’s guidance in May 2025 was for FY25 revenue to be in the range of $85 million to $95 million with

EBITDA guidance between $3.5 million and $4.0 million. The Company did previously highlight that

macroeconomic conditions and NZ$ / US$ currency fluctuations may influence guidance.

Due to the impact of changes in US Government tariff policy, AoFrio now expects revenue and EBITDA at

the lower end of the FY25 guidance range.

While full year revenue and EBITDA is forecast to be above 2024, the performance in H1-25 highlights the

challenge of funding growth out of operating cash flows. Product and market development investments are

now being delayed, impacting the ability to move at the pace needed to take advantage of the significant

opportunities to accelerate revenue growth and earnings.

The Board and management are exploring initiatives that will allow accelerated investment to:

• Rapidly launch advanced AI driven solutions via AoFrio iQ and continuing to launch new connected

hardware within the cold drink equipment segment.

• Entering adjacent segments like food retail and ice-cream.


AOF’s Chair John Scott said “While the broader trading environment remains complex — shaped by tariffs,

geopolitical tensions, and inflationary pressures — we’re pleased to report that AoFrio continues to perform

strongly. Our operations remain solid, with key metrics across the sales funnel, SLAs, delivery, quality, and

uptime all well understood and firmly in control. Customer support remains high, reflected in strong Net

Promoter Scores and healthy share of wallet across key accounts. A clear highlight of the first half was the

successful launch of AoFrio iQ, which has been very well received, and we’re confident this will contribute

positively to future performance. We are reaffirming our guidance, albeit at the lower end, and, given the

backdrop, are encouraged by the strength of our H1-25 result and optimistic about the long term outlook”.













*EBITDA (i.e., Earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation, amortisation, and impairment) is a non-GAAP

earnings figure that equity analysts tend to focus on for comparable company performance analysis. AoFrio

considers it a valuable financial indicator because it avoids the distortions caused by differences in

amortisation and impairment policies. Contact

AoFrio Ltd

Strategy delivery in a shifting landscape

AoFrio is pleased to release its interim report for the six months ended 30 June 2025 (“H1-25”). Revenue increased

12.2% compared to the same period last year, a continuation of the revenue growth trend of recent years.

This was despite a six-month period shaped by uncertainty around the US trade tariffs, currency volatility, and broader

macroeconomic conditions which led to more subdued customer capital spending than anticipated across several key

regional markets.

The year started strongly with Q1-25 revenue 43.9%

up on the same period last year. However, Q2-25

revenue was 11.9% lower compared to Q2-24 with

volumes impacted by global trade issues resulting from

the uncertainty of imposition of tariffs by the USA. We

believe some customers took early delivery of orders in

Q1-25 in anticipation of the imposition of tariffs in Q2-25.

Earnings before interest, depreciation and amortisation

(“EBITDA”) was above plan at $0.7 million but below the

$1.1 million result in 2024 with the reduction attributable

to one-off costs and costs associated with AoFrio’s

expansion into new products and markets.

Revenue

AoFrio shipped 314,000 IoT devices and 555,000 motors

in the period, a 26.9% increase in motor volumes but a

3.7% reduction in IoT volume. Revenue for IoT was at

similar levels to H1-24. Motor revenue increased 28.4%.

There was strong revenue growth in the Americas.

North American year-on-year growth was 23.0% due

to increased motor volumes into the USA market for

supermarket display units and hot water heat pumps.

South America was 17.9% lower on reduced IoT

demand. APAC increased 8.4% and EMEA decreased

12.3%.

AoFrio secured its first significant food retail order

in March following completion of a proof-of-concept

trial. This solution is for a New Zealand convenience

store chain with 115 stores, significantly improving the

automation of temperature monitoring and alerting. The

order includes recurring SaaS revenue under a multi-

year contract. AoFrio is seeing inbound customer enquiry

for food retail solutions.

AoFrio invoiced $2.8 million for cloud data connection

and software development charges during H1-25

compared to $2.5 million for the same period last year.

This service revenue is multi-year and is recognised in

the Income Statement over the duration of the contract.

At 30 June 2025, $16.8 million of revenue was deferred

for recognition in subsequent periods.

Gross margin

The gross margin for H1-25 at 29.6% was 0.4pp lower

due to change in product mix – more motors and fewer

higher margin IoT products. The gross margin was

18.0% for motors and 40.9% for IoT products.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses for the six months ending 30 June

2025 were $11.9 million, an increase of $1.4m compared

to the same period last year but in line with the 2025

plan. Staff costs of $12.1 million (pre-capitalised

development and including contractors) increased $1.8

million compared with H1-24. New roles were recruited

in H1-25 to support business growth plans which are

expected to deliver increased revenues from FY26.

Capitalised development time increased to $3.2 million

from $2.3 million in H1-24. This reflects time spent on

new product development to progress AoFrio’s strategies

of protecting and growing the bottle cooler market and

diversification into new markets. These initiatives include

completing developments for launch in H2-25 of a new

cellular controller (SCS800), our Software-as-a-Service

(SaaS) platform, AoFrio

®

iQ and 7”, 8” and 10” fan

packs. We continued to progress our new solutions for

food service / food retail customers and further fan

pack sizes.

Working capital

Cash at 30 June 2025 was $2.0 million compared to $2.1

million at 31 December 2024.

Trade receivables at 30 June 2025 was $21.2 million

compared to $19.1 million at 31 December 2024. This

increase is due to a major customer no longer able to

offer supplier factoring due to a change of ownership.

The metric Days Sales in Trade Receivables has

been maintained at below the 90-day target throughout

the period.

Inventory at 30 June 2025 was $9.3 million, a $0.1

million decrease since 31 December 2024.

Trade payables at 30 June 2025 was $19.7 million, a

$0.1 million increase since 31 December 2024. The

Company has continued to utilise extended payment

terms made available by AoFrio’s contract manufacturer,

East West.

AoFrio Ltd

Strategy Implementation

AoFrio remains focused on investing in its three

strategies to drive long-term success:

1. Protect and grow the core.

2. Diversify its market segments.

3. Transform its foundations.

These strategies aim to ensure that AoFrio continues to

deliver value to its customers while consistently achieving

growth and profitability objectives over time.

Protect and grow our core

The strategy to protect and grow its core business, IoT

for Cold Drink Equipment (CDE) and Motors and

Fans, remained central to AoFrio’s progress in the first

half of FY25.

IoT for CDE

The overall strategy for CDE is:

1. Win the hardware game by enabling full fleet

connectivity, ensuring all equipment in the fleet

is connected.

2. Build the most valuable software platform, which, for

customers means they can access a comprehensive

and integrated solution that enhances management

and performance of their equipment fleet leading to

improved operational efficiency, cost savings and

increased revenue potential.

3. Enter the US and European markets with a winning

connected solution.

During H1-25, AoFrio’s focus was to deliver new solutions

to enable full-fleet connectivity and intelligent cooler fleet

management to customers across global markets.

As planned, AoFrio launched AoFrio

®

iQ and AoFrio’s

SCS800 cellular controller. This integrated solution

enables real-time asset visibility from day one — no

setup, Wi-Fi, or third-party gateways required.

AoFrio iQ is an AI enabled SaaS platform that

allows AoFrio to add significant additional customer

SaaS Metrics

We provided SaaS metrics for the first time in our 2024 Annual Report. The table below shows the metrics for the

H1-25 period. These almost all show improvement over the position for the same period in 2024.

Interim Report 2025

benefit across four key customer value pillars: Asset

Management, Commercial Performance, Service &

Maintenance, and Energy Efficiency while increasing

the recurring revenue portion of the revenue mix.

The launch of AoFrio iQ has significantly improved the

user experience of the AoFrio SaaS platform while

enabling:

• Smarter fleet-wide visibility:

AoFrio iQ provides a real-time view of cooler health

and performance, enabling faster data-driven

decisions and proactive issue resolution.

• Remote capabilities that drive efficiency:

Operators can remotely adjust temperature setpoints,

accelerate defrost cycles, disable assets, reduce

service costs, improve uptime, and boost revenue

potential.

• Scalable, future-ready integration:

Designed to work seamlessly across mixed and

legacy fleets, AoFrio iQ supports the broadest

hardware base, maximizing existing investments

while simplifying future upgrades and rollouts.

The development and launch of the SCS800 cellular

controller marks the next step of AoFrio’s multi-year

market entry strategy for Europe, the USA and Canada.

The Total Addressable Market (“TAM”) for these two

markets is 700,000 units per annum. In Q3-25 we will

commence customer trials in both regions to be ready for

the FY26 capital purchase cycle.

Motors and Fans

The overall strategy for the Motors and Fans business is

to protect the gross margin it generates by:

• Winning new applications.

• Introducing new fan pack sizes.

• Reducing product cost.

The Motors and Fans business performed strongly in H1-

25, by adding new applications for new customers and

expanding the applications for existing customers with the

release of new fan sizes.

Following the successful introduction of a tailored motor

and fan solution for the USA heat pump water heater

market in FY24, AoFrio continued to expand its solution

in H1-25. Built around the high-performance ECR 2

motor and 8” fan system, the solution delivers significant

energy savings while meeting strict noise and regulatory

requirements. Its ultra-quiet operation, and high durability

make it ideal for residential installations, especially as

the USA Department of Energy has recently finalised

efficiency standards.

The team has made good progress designing and

releasing new fan pack sizes. A first order for the 7” fan

packs was received in Q2-25 and a first order received

for the 10” fan pack to be released Q3-25. A new

improved 8” fan pack will be released in Q4-25 followed

by the 9” fan pack. Engineered for low-noise, high-

efficiency performance, the fan packs have been well

received by customers.

In parallel, the engineering team continued to drive cost-

reduction initiatives across select motor SKUs. These

efforts are essential to maintaining price competitiveness

in increasingly cost-sensitive markets such as EMEA.

By refining bill of materials and optimising component

sourcing, AoFrio can offer the same high-quality products

while minimising margin pressure.

Diversifying into new markets

In H1-25, AoFrio made progress in its efforts to diversify

into the food retail segment, extending the use of

its solutions across a broader range of commercial

refrigeration environments.

AoFrio secured its first multiyear commercial agreement

in the food retail segment with a convenience store

chain. The agreement is structured around recurring

software revenue and marks a significant milestone in

validating product-market fit in a new sector. Alongside

this win, a second pilot deployment continued with a large

supermarket chain which is expected to lead to a contract

in Q3-25.

Several trials are underway in APAC, EMEA and South

Latam, with additional trials expected in H2-25. These

trials are helping shape product development priorities,

particularly in configuring AoFrio

®

iQ to address the

needs in this sector. The commercial launch of AoFrio iQ

configured for food retail remains targeted for FY26.

6
AoFrio Ltd

As a part of our diversification strategy, AoFrio is

exploring opportunities in the ice cream segment. Based

on the exceptional results from a proof-of-concept with

a customer in Chile - AoFrio’s technology significantly

reduced equipment loss from 20% to just 0.5% - AoFrio

intends to develop a tailored solution for this segment as

resourcing allows.

Transform our foundations

The overall purpose of this strategy is to continue to

ensure that AoFrio has:

• The right people with the right motivation and

capability.

• An approach to sustainability that takes advantage of

the opportunities and manages risk.

• The right systems and processes to be productive

now and in the future.

Environmental, Social and

Governance (ESG)

AoFrio has made good progress implementing its

sustainability plan which is aimed at both ensuring that

AoFrio is doing the right thing while utilizing its solutions

to support customer achieve their carbon footprint

reduction targets.

Some highlights include:

• Retaining EcoVardis certification with the addition of

a sustainable supplier policy, and implementation of

a global health and safety global plan.

• Commencing work on product circularity

assessments.

• Successfully completing a security assessment

against critical security controls version 8 standard

(CIS v8).

• Increasing the energy saving potential of AoFrio’s

energy saving bundle from 64% to 68% validated by

an external testing laboratory.

People

In H1-25 AoFrio continued to strengthen the organisation

capability and capacity by adding new people to the team

(Sales, Data and Analytics, and Software development)

and ongoing investment in the development of

employees.

AoFrio launched its leadership development framework,

and a skill share programme aimed at sharing knowledge

and improving the innovation mindset and strategy

alignment of the organisation.

7
Interim Report 2025

As part of its plan for leveraging AI for business

improvement, AoFrio launched its AI Academy which

brings together policy and learning and development

information for our team. An AI Advocates group (16

people from across the organisation) was established to

champion the piloting and use of AI tools.

A first group of Lean practitioners are completing their

first projects focussed on improving business process

e.g. response time for customer support requests, time

from idea to execution of customer requested new

product features.

The annual staff Engagement Score increasing from 67

to 72 is pleasing. The global industry benchmark is a

score of 68% (Information, Technology & Services 100-

200 January 2025).

SaaS platform modernisation

AoFrio continued to make good progress on the multiyear

programme to modernise its SaaS platform, which was

vital for the launch of AoFrio iQ, discussed above, and to:

• Increase the rate at which new features can be

released.

• Leverage machine learning and AI automated

workflows as part of the product solution.

Outlook

AoFrio’s guidance in May 2025 was for FY25 revenue to

be in the range of $85 million to $95 million with EBITDA

guidance between $3.5 million and $4.0 million. The

Company did previously highlight that macro-economic

conditions and NZ$ / US$ currency fluctuations may

influence guidance.

Due to the macro-economic impact of changes in US

Government tariff policy, AoFrio now expects revenue and

EBITDA at the lower end of the FY25 guidance range.

While full year revenue and EBITDA is forecast to be

above 2024, the performance in H1-25 highlights the

challenge of funding growth out of operating cash flows.

Product and market development investments are now

being delayed, impacting the ability to move at the pace

needed to take advantage of the significant opportunities

to accelerate revenue growth and earnings.

The Board and management are exploring initiatives that

will allow accelerated investment to:

• Rapidly launch advanced AI driven solutions via

AoFrio iQ and continue to launch new connected

hardware within the CDE segment.

• Enter adjacent segments like food retail and

ice-cream.

Notes to the Interim Financial

Statements

for the six months ended 30 June 2025

1. Basis of preparation

1.1 General Information

AoFrio Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (together the “Group is a hardware-enabled SaaS company

that supplies hardware and solutions to the food and beverage industry.

The Company is a limited liability incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand. The address of its registered office

is 78 Apollo Drive, Rosedale, Auckland 0632 New Zealand. The Company is registered under the Companies

Act 1993 and is an FMC reporting entity under Part 7 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The financial

statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Part 7 of the Financial Markets Conduct

Act 2013 and the NZX Main Board Listing Rules.

These interim financial statements do not include all the notes and disclosures set out in the annual report. As

a result, this report should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31

December 2024.

These consolidated and condensed financial statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors

on 6

th

August 2025 and have not been audited.

1.2 Summary of Material Accounting Policies

Basis of preparation

These consolidated and condensed financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with

generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand. The Group is a for-profit entity for the purposes of

financial reporting. The consolidated and condensed financial statements comply with New Zealand International

Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting.

All material accounting policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Entities reporting

The financial statements are for the consolidated group which is the economic entity comprising of AoFrio Limited

and its subsidiaries.

Historical cost convention

These financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for derivative financial

information which is measured at fair value.

New standards, amendments, and interpretations adopted

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are

consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group’s annual consolidated financial statements for the

year ended 31 December 2024, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of 1 January 2025.

The amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates specify how an entity

should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when

exchangeability is lacking. The amendments also require disclosure of information that enables users of its

financial statements to understand how the currency not being exchangeable into the other currency affects,

14
AoFrio Ltd

or is expected to affect, the entity’s financial performance, financial position and cash flows. The amendments

are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025. The amendments did not have

a material impact on these interim consolidated financial statements.The Group has not early adopted any

standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective. NZ IFRS 18 Presentation

and Disclosure in Financial Statements (NZ IFRS 18) was issued in April 2024 as replacement for NZ IAS 1

Presentation of Financial Statements (NZ IAS 1). The Group is currently assessing the impact of NZ IFRS 18 and

will disclose a more detailed assessment in the future. Several amendments apply for the first time in 2025, but do

not have an impact on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group.

Going concern assumption

The Group reported a loss for the six months ended 30 June 2025 of $1,770,000 (2024: loss of $1,043,000) and

operating cash outflows of $923,000 (2024: inflows of $2,271,000). Cash at 30 June 2025 was $1,971,000 (2024:

$1,951,000) and net debt (defined as cash balances net of borrowings) was $7,260,000 (2024: $2,508,000).

The Board has reviewed forecasts prepared by management for the period to 31 December 2025 that show

revenues and earnings above 2024 levels. The Board is satisfied that if global supply chain or macro-economic

conditions adversely impact demand, the Group can and will manage its planned increases in operating and

capital expenditure to ensure the Group maintains adequate cash reserves.

The Board closely monitors the Group’s compliance with banking covenants, all of which have been complied with

at 30 June 2025.

Therefore, the Board has at the time of approving the financial statements, assessed it is appropriate to continue

to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Significant accounting estimates and judgements


Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors,

including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The Company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will,

by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk

of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are

detailed in the following notes to the financial statements:

Areas of estimation

• Going concern – forecasts – note 1.2

Areas of judgement

• Development costs – capitalisation of expenses and impairment testing – note 3.6

2. Results for the year

2.1 Segment information

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it earns revenues

and incurs expenses, whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker and

for which discrete financial information is available.

The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the

operating segments, has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer supported by the management team who

report directly to the CEO.

(a). Reportable segments

The Group is organised on a global basis into two operating divisions – Motors and IoT. These divisions offer

different products and services and are managed separately because they require different technology and

marketing strategies. The Group’s chief executive officer reviews the financial performance of each division at

least monthly. Each division is a reportable segment.


There are varying levels of integration between the segments. There are engineering and sales staff that support

both segments as well as shared logistical and quality management services.

Information related to each reportable segment is set out below:

2.2 Seasonality of operations

Revenues and operating profits are generally expected to be higher in the first six months of a calendar year,

lower in the 3

rd

quarter due to customers in the northern hemisphere shutting down for summer holidays and

increasing again in the 4

th

quarter.


This does not appear to be position this year and current forecasts show relatively consistent revenue throughout

the year.

Revenues and operating profits in the 4

th

and 1

st

quarters of a calendar year can be impacted by the timing of the

China New Year and Vietnam Tet holidays.

19
Interim Report 2025

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and

services, excluding GST / VAT, rebates and discounts and after eliminating sales within the Group. The Group

disaggregates revenues from contracts by geographical regions, which is detailed in note 2.1(b).

(a). Sale of Goods

The Group manufactures and sells a range of energy efficient motors and IoT hardware to the food and beverage

market. Sales are recognised when control has transferred to the buyer which is usually when delivery of the

goods to the buyer pursuant to the Incoterms that apply is fulfilled, and there is no unfulfilled obligation that could

affect the customer’s acceptance of the products. Delivery occurs when the products have been delivered in

accordance with the pre-agreed Incoterms between the Group and the buyer, the risks of obsolescence and loss

have been transferred to the buyer, and either the buyer has accepted the products in accordance with the sales

arrangement, the acceptance provisions have lapsed, or the Group has objective evidence that all criteria for

acceptance and performance obligations under the contract with the customer have been satisfied.

Some of the sales of goods are subject to CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight) Incoterms. The Group considers

these freight and insurance services to be a distinct service. For these sales, the total sales price is allocated to

the separate performance obligations, being the product and the insurance and freight costs. Further, the Group

considers itself an agent only in the provision of the freight services. Revenue for the CIF element is recognised

only to the extent of the margin for providing the agent services. However, there are limited sales under CIF terms

and the impact on revenue is estimated to be minor.

The Group has an in-market distributor in Brazil to supply goods to buyers in that market who require local

delivery. This distributor transacts as agent. The Group is the principal in these transactions. Sales of product are

recognised when the distributor delivers the product to buyers at which point control passes to the buyer.

Products may be sold with retrospective volume rebates based on aggregate sales over a 12-month period.

Revenue from these sales is recognised based on the price specified in the contract, net of the estimated volume

rebates. Accumulated experience and customer knowledge are used to determine the rebate amounts using the

expected value method and revenue is only recognised to the extent that it is highly probable significant reversals

will not occur. The liability to pay volume rebates is recognised (included in trade and other payables) in respect of

sales made until the end of the reporting period.

No element of financing is deemed present as the sales are made with a credit term of 30 - 120 days which is

consistent with market practice.

(b). Sale of services

Associated with the supply of IoT hardware, the Group supplies a range of data, and reporting services, all

installed on every AoFrio SCS, AoFrio Monitor and AoFrio Click sold and are distinct services from the sale of

goods. Revenue from the provision of such services is recognised when services are rendered to the buyer.

Contracts typically cover a period from hardware supply of anywhere from 1 to 10 years, dependent on customer

requirements. Contracts specify the price for the provision of the services. Revenue from such contracts is

recognised on a straight-line basis over the contract term because the customer receives and uses the benefits

simultaneously. As set out in note 2.3(a), no explicit element of financing is deemed present as the purpose of the

advance payment of revenue is for reasons other than financing.

The Group also provides software development services for customers. Revenue from these services is

recognised when the contracted development is completed according to the agreed scope of work.

21
Interim Report 2025

Liability for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave

expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other payables in respect of

employees’ services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the

liabilities are settled. Liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and

measured at the rates paid or payable.

The Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses and creates a provision where contractually obliged

or where there is past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

2.6 Earnings per share

Earnings per share (‘EPS’) is the amount of post-tax profit attributable to each share.

Basic EPS of a loss of 0.41 cents (June 2024 – loss of 0.24 cents) is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to

equity holders of the Company of $1,770,000 (June 2024 – loss of $1,043,000) by the weighted average number

of ordinary shares in issue during the period of 432,048,543 (June 2024 – 431,853,006).

Diluted EPS of a loss of 0.41 cents (June 2024 - loss of 0.24 cents) is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to

equity holders of the Company of $1,770,000 (June 2024: - loss of $1,043,000) by the weighted average number

of shares in issue during the period. No adjustment was made for effects of 12,930,000 dilutive potential ordinary

shares, refer to note 5.1(c), because the effect in that period would have been anti-dilutive.

Current year income tax expense(20)213

Deferred tax – recognition of deferred tax asset--7

Income tax (expense) / credit (20)2110

The current income tax expense relates to income tax paid in respect of trading activities in Brazil. No additional

tax expense arises due to the availability of tax losses carried forward from previous years in each jurisdiction.

As it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise temporary differences and losses, a

deferred tax asset was recognised at 31 December 2024 for deductible temporary differences and for that portion

of the unused tax losses expected to be utilised in the five years 2025 through to 2029. No additional deferred tax

has been recognised in H1 FY25. The key judgements within the forecast taxable profit model include revenue

growth rates and gross margin. No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of the remaining tax losses

to carry forward due to uncertainty as to forecast taxable income after the five years.

Losses available to be carried forward are subject to the shareholder continuity requirements of the New Zealand

Income Tax Act 1994 and the countries in which the losses have arisen.

assets in the period amounting to $3,543,000 (2024: $2,583,000) are included in the Consolidated and

Condensed Interim Cash Flow Statement.

Internally generated development costs include $7,028,000 (2024: $7,948,000) for projects underway and not

complete at balance date. This cost is not yet being amortised.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives

Goodwill acquired through business combinations with indefinite lives has been allocated to the IoT Cash

Generating Unit (CGU) which is also an operating and reportable segment for impairment testing. The Group

performed an impairment test at 31 December 2024.

The recoverable amount of the IoT CGU at 31 December 2024 was determined based on a value in use

calculation using cash flow projections from the approved budget for 2025. The pre-tax discount rate applied to

the cash flow projections was 13.5% (2024: 13.5%) and cash flows beyond 2025 used a 12.48% growth rate for

IoT revenue over the period from 2019 to 2024.

The calculation of value in use is most sensitive to the following assumptions:

• Gross margins

• Completion and launch of new IoT products under development and retaining volumes to current customers

• Growth rates used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the forecast period

• Operating expense increases.

Gross margins were based on 2025 budget pricing and product costs, and these have not changed significantly.

The gross margin for the period to 30 June 2025 was 40.9%, slightly below the 43% budget rate due to customer

mix in the period. Operating expenses for the period to 30 June 2025 was 16.4% of sales which is much lower

than the % rate assumed in the calculation of recoverable amount.

As a result of this updated review, management did not identify an impairment for this CGU.

Bank trade finance facility

The bank trade finance facility was increased to $10 million from $5 million in April 2025. The facility has no term,

is repayable on demand and is secured. The Company can finance invoices to certain customers over a maximum

term of 120 days. Interest is payable on repayment at a 3.25% margin above bank base lending rate.

The Group is required to comply with the following financial covenants at 30 June and 31 December:

• EBITDA / Interest Covenant – EBITDA to be a minimum of 1.5 times gross interest expense and 3.0 times

BNZ interest expense (in both, calculated as if IFRS16 does not apply).

• Working Capital Covenant – Inventory and Receivables divided by borrowings under the trade finance facility

to be a minimum of 2.5 times.

The requirement was changed in the period to require testing for compliance also at 30 June (previously only at

31 December) for the trailing 12 months. At 30 June 2025, the Group complied with all covenants.

Bank term loans

The Company’s US subsidiary borrowed US$198,100 under the Small Business Act. The SBA loan has monthly

repayments over a 30-year term. Interest is payable at 3.75% pa.

Fair value estimation

The only financial instruments carried at fair value at 30 June 2025 are derivatives comprising forward foreign

exchange contracts.

The forward exchange contract has been classified as Level 2.

The different levels have been defined as follows:

• Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1)

• Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either

directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices) (Level 2)

• Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (i.e. unobservable inputs)

(Level 3)

The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the balance

sheet date, with the resulting value discounted back to present value.

5.5 Maturity analysis

The amounts disclosed are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.
