ASG’s outlook • Strong underlying business fundamentals • Consistent EBITDA margins in FY15, increasing in FY16 • FY15 increase in revenue will be backloaded to H2 due to contract timing • Recurring revenue locked in • Offshoring • 10% by FY16 • Will increase EBITDA and cash position • Overheads to remain stable • ASG’s first mover advantage creating long-term, sustainable opportunities • Evidence of the ‘right’ strategy • Transforming sales from push to pull scenario • ASG’s reputation and referenceability major differentiator in key markets • Sound Federal Government experience Despite the intrinsic value of New World IP & projected EBITDA, ASG is undervalued on a comparative multiple basis
