Priority Status Comment
Return SMB to Growth
We have repaired the legacy domains and hosting business and succeeded in developing a new “managed marketing solutions” business. Solutions revenue now accounts for 20% of total SMB revenue and is growing at 56%pa. SMB enters 2017 growing at the top and bottom lines.
Accelerate the Transformation of ES
ES is well on its way to becoming Australia’s most impactful digital technology partner for the enterprise market. Over the past three years ES has tripled in size. In 2016 revenue grew 73% while EBITDA grew 87%. ES expects to enjoy strong growth in 2017.
Realise Synergy Savings
The acquisitions of Netregistry (Feb 2014) and Uber Global (April 2015) were expected to deliver combined synergy savings of $10M ($5M by the end of 2015, another $2.5M in 2016, and the final $2.5M in 2017). At the end of 2016 we had realised $8.5M of savings ($1.0M more than originally targeted) and have clear line of sight to the remaining $1.5M.
We have achieved the three priorities that underpinned our turnaround. The future is all about growth.
Priorities: mission accomplished
Growth: consistently strong growth
