Strategy Execution Update
− FDV’s portfolio has grown meaningfully since IPO – revenues ex. Zameen have surpassed total group revenues at the time of IPO
− FDV’s current market capitalisation appears to undervalue the consistent strategy execution and value generated across FDV’s 14 market leading classified businesses
− 7 out of 14 operating companies are expected to record >A$1.0m revenue in 2018
− FDV reaffirms its 2018 revenue guidance of A$40m (100% basis), up from A$27m in 2017
Frontier Digital Ventures Limited (“FDV”) is pleased to provide an update to investors on its strategy execution across 2018 and areas of focus as 2019 approaches. On 20 December 2017, FDV outlined a clear strategy for its portfolio as it progresses towards monetisation. FDV has successfully executed against its stated strategy over the last 12 months by:
• increasing its focus on property classifieds;
• investing more in Asia;
• delivering strong revenue growth (+59% in 1H18 on pcp); and
• consolidating all companies into market leadership positions. Based on the current market valuation, it appears that the consistent strategy execution and strong operational growth across FDV’s portfolio has been underappreciated. Zameen, the #1 online property classifieds business in Pakistan, continues to deliver strong revenue growth (+92% in 1H18 on pcp). At the same time FDV continues to accelerate the development of its 13 other market leading online classifieds businesses which are following the Zameen blueprint. These 13 other businesses are now contributing the majority of FDV’s revenues. There has been strong corporate activity in the online classifieds sector across emerging and frontier markets in 2018. FDV is well positioned across its portfolio of best-in-class, market leading online classifieds businesses in emerging and frontier markets.
