Page 4: ACN For personal use only - ASX2015/08/31  · 8. The company opened an office in Indonesia following signing a new SPLA licensing agreement with Microsoft in August of 2014, and 9.

During the 12-month period to 30 June 2015, rhipe invested heavily in the transition of its operations from a purely private-cloud licensing business to “Whole of Cloud” wholesaler with integrated divisions focused on cloud

licensing (private, public and hybrid), cloud solutions (services and support), and cloud operations (billing, provisioning, marketing). rhipe’s investment in these operating divisions led to a number of significant achievements that have set the foundation for rhipe’s ongoing growth:

1. In December 2014, rhipe completed the strategic acquisition of nSynergy to form the new rhipe Solutions business unit. This acquisition paved the way for rhipe’s bid to represent Microsoft as a wholesaler of Microsoft’s public cloud offerings.

2. In April 2015 rhipe was awarded the Microsoft 2-Tier Cloud Solutions Program (CSP) for Australia. This program allows rhipe to wholesale Microsoft’s public cloud offerings such as Office365, Azure and Enterprise Mobility Suite (EMS) to rhipe’s reseller channel on a monthly subscription “pay-as-you-use” basis.

3. From December 2014 to June 2015, rhipe also engaged with Microsoft in 5 South East Asian countries in relation to their 2-Tier CSP wholesaler program. In July 2015 rhipe was subsequently awarded the 2-Tier CSP program in each of these countries.

4. As part of the acquisition of nSynergy, rhipe also made an investment in cloud software company, LiveTiles. This investment provided rhipe with exclusive distribution rights for the LiveTiles product to

service providers in Asia Pacific. 5. During the financial year rhipe worked closely with SoftLayer, an IBM company, to explore how rhipe could

wholesale the SoftLayer infrastructure to rhipe’s reseller channel in all seven of rhipe’s operating countries. rhipe was subsequently awarded the Cloud-wholesaler vendor agreement for Softlayer in APAC for Q1/ FY16 implementation

6. rhipe signed new licensing relationships with Intel Security (McAfee), Zimbra, LiveTiles and SkyKick. 7. rhipe built a dedicated Cloud Licensing Solutions Provider (LSP) team as a result of signing a new pilot

cloud licensing program with Microsoft Australia (the Cloud LSP program) and achieved 200% attainment of targets.

8. The company opened an office in Indonesia following signing a new SPLA licensing agreement with Microsoft in August of 2014, and

9. Over the year, rhipe greatly expanded its executive team with a new Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Commercial Officer, Chief Marketing Officer, Chief Technology Officer and Chief Strategy Officer.

rhipe’s key software vendor relationships include those with Microsoft, VMWare, Citrix, Datacore, Intel Security (McAfee), Red Hat, Trend Micro, Veeam, Zimbra, LiveTiles and SkyKick. rhipe sells and manages subscription software to over 1600 Channel customers including Managed Service Providers (MSPs), Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and System Integrators (SIs). rhipe also supports these channel customers with value-add services including business transformation consulting, marketing and lead generation, order processing and license optimisation and compliance consulting.

rhipe’s services and support offerings (resulting from the acquisition of nSynergy) are currently focused on

Microsoft technologies such as Office365 and Azure. The nSynergy business was integrated into rhipe over a 6 month period and rebranded to “rhipe solutions” in June, 2015. The business generated un-audited revenue of $3.72m and EBIT $0.23m for the period to June 2015. The purchase price of nSynergy, post finalising completion accounts and agreement with the vendors, was reduced from the headline figure of $25.35m (as announced on 28th November) to $14.35m, which comprises:

•$10m cash paid at completion in December 2014

•$4.35m stock in rhipe issued, escrowed to December 2015.

The reduction of $11m from that announced on 28th November comprises:

•$3m of cash which has been retained by rhipe to meet working capital requirements, and

•$8m of potential earn out for 2016 and 2017 which will be replaced by standard rhipe bonus plans for senior team members.

rhipe’s growth continues to come from its heritage geographies of Australia and New Zealand with even higher growth from rhipe’s investment in South East Asia.
