Outlook
• Strong demand for Senetas products driving sales pipeline growth of over 100%
through FY2023
• Global supply chain issues continue to have an impact the timing of sales completion, however,
those issues have eased and should largely be minimised over the next 12 months.
• Encouraging signs of growth in Thales’s end user sales during FY2023 and Senetas expects that third
party sales momentum to continue into FY2024 after sales pipeline growth of over 110% in FY2023
• As the global supply chain issues ease, the inventory carried by Thales is expected to reduce to more
historic levels – impacting Senetas’s revenue and profit in FY2024 due to lower inventory transfers
• Cash flow and third-party sales of Senetas products are expected to be stronger in FY2024.
Consolidated group revenue is still expected to grow in FY2024 with good growth from Votiro
• Votiro’s business continues to make strong progress with 50% ARR growth since
December 2022
• US$10 million of sales pipeline growth in the HY to June 2023, excluding maintenance renewals, and
total pipeline sitting at over US$33 million
• Votiro’s ARR at August 2023 of US$7.0 million is expected to reach US$10 million by December 2023
• Cash flow breakeven for Votiro is targeted for the middle of calendar year 2024

Slide 5
FY2023 Highlights – Senetas
• Double digit revenue growth for Senetas segment with FY2023 revenue up 12%
• Whilst the global component shortages have continued to have an impact during FY2023, continued
signs of improving third party demand and increased product shipments to Thales have driven 12%
revenue growth
• With a higher proportion of revenue derived from inventory shipments Senetas gross margins remain
a little below historic levels at 78%. Senetas continues to expect that gross margins will revert to
slightly higher historic levels in the medium term as the electronic component shortages are
alleviated over the next 12 months
• Sales revenue was higher for all of Senetas’s largest product categories
• Senetas segment profit before tax was up 95% to $3.7 million (FY2022: $1.9 million)
• Strong rebound from FY2022 profit before tax driven primarily by increased sales revenue – with
FY2023 expenses slightly lower than the prior period
• Maintenance revenue was 43% of Senetas’s total segment revenue
• Net profit after tax for the Senetas segment of $3.2 million (FY2022: $1.7 million)

Slide 6
Senetas operations
• The sales pipeline continued to build throughout FY2023 with the Thales pipeline of
sales for Senetas products growing over 110% during the period
• Good signs through FY2023 that end user sales are beginning grow again, and that
lead times for component orders have started reducing – Senetas continues to expect
that customers will return to more normal ordering patterns over the next 12 months
• The number of hardware units shipped by Senetas in FY2023 was up 4% over the prior
period, however, there was a shift towards smaller capacity encryptors therefore
modifying the overall impact on sales revenue
• The number of units sold to end user customers during the period was up by 10% during
the period
• The major R&D focus during the period has been on an upgraded version of Senetas’s
10Gbps hardware encryptor and software updates

Slide 7
Inventory levels
• As a result of the global electronic component shortages that have impacted industry in recent years, both
Senetas and its global distribution partner, Thales, have significantly increased the level of product inventory
held in order to manage risks associated with increased order lead times through that period
• As the global supply chain shortages unwind over the next 12 months, the requirement to hold such a large
buffer of surplus inventory in the business is expected to abate
• Senetas plans to transition towards more traditional inventory levels over the next 12-18 months and expects
that Thales will do the same
• Whilst external demand is strong and Senetas sales pipeline is at historically high levels, Senetas inventory
shipments to Thales are nonetheless expected to reduce with a consequential impact on revenue and profit in
FY2024
• Precise impact on revenue is difficult to determine at this stage until we have further clarity on the scale of
Thales’s inventory reductions, however, product sales revenue in the Senetas business segment could decline
by up to 15% in FY2024
• Third party product sales and cash flow are expected to continue growing through the transition period in
FY2024, and maintenance revenue will be unaffected

FY2023 Financials – Votiro
• Votiro operating revenue was up 33% to $7.7 million driven primarily by growth in the
Asia Pacific region – the Asia Pacific region remained the key driver of ARR growth in

provided to the market by Senetas in late June 2023
• Total contract value for Votiro at August 2023 was US$21.9 million
• Votiro FY2023 loss after tax was $17.4 million – including $3.5 million of non-cash items
• $6.9 million of Votiro’s after tax loss is attributable to the minority interests in Votiro

discontinued support for some low margin end of life products in the Japanese
market
