manner but remains well below its peak

Job volumes have steadily recovered but are still

well below the peaks of Dec-07 Growth in online job ads has outstripped the

growth in print

Source: ANZ Job Series March-11

The SEEK New Job Index at March-11 is still 18% below the peak of Dec-07.

When labour markets return to peak, SEEK’s revenue is likely to be higher than prior peak:

o Average yields will be higher, increased usage of enhanced & premium ads, etc

o Labour market & participation rates have increased vs last peak

LinkedIn – What is SEEK’s position?

“SEEK will closely monitor all competitive threats. SEEK remains confident of its business model, market place position & capabilities.”

15

What is it? Is it a threat? What’s SEEK’s strategy?

A professional social network

Appeal for users

For most, akin to an “online

rolodex”, assists in managing

relationships between distant, ex

and current colleagues

For some, a way to build new

connections through community

involvement

Like all communities a small

proportion engage heavily

Appeal for recruiters

A publicly searchable who‟s who

database (via Google etc)

A lot of early excitement

Increasingly „free‟ access is being

restricted (in favour of more direct

monetisation)

Increasingly recruiters looking to

measure ROI in use

Keep focusing on ROI leadership

• Make job search even more

efficient (e.g. we led the market on

search by salary)

• Integrate with social networks

where it makes sense (e.g. delivers

value)

• Deepen relationships with

• Existing & new advertisers

• Job Seekers

Leverage our leadership into job

seeker database

• Our CV database is „part of the ad‟

• Our view of job seeker „intent‟ and

preference delivers clear ROI

advantages

• We‟re seeing strong adoption on

both the job seeker and advertiser

sides of the market

We’ve always been obsessive about

understanding alternatives to SEEK

Print & Direct Online Job Boards

Online verticals and aggregators

New models (bounty models, social

networks etc)

Our view on LinkedIn

It is a complementary job search

tool for users who want to „work‟

their networks

Improves „search‟ economics a little

for recruiters – but job boards

remain far more efficient

Clear intent to move into job ads -

there will be experimentation by

some customers

But, our scale and value pricing is a

strong defence (because it delivers

very high ROI)

AU and US markets are very

different - fragmented markets and

high pricing make building a viable

proposition easier for entrantsFor

Continue attacking industry segments such as Trade & Services,

Regional, Govt & Healthcare

Expect job ad volumes to continue migrating over the medium

term from print to online and SEEK to benefit from improving

labour market conditions

Volume

Yield

SEEK announced a job ad price increase of 9%

commencing 2 May

Increased usage of Standout & Premium Ads expected in

tightening labour markets and poised for further growth

Product Extension

SEEK has launched new products and services including: mobile

search, job seeker profile and improved search functionality.

In the next 6-12 months, SEEK will launch new revenue

generating products and enhanced services to improve the

search experience for job seekers & advertisers

Core drivers of long term

employment earnings

SEEK‟s core strategy remains focused on

accelerating the structural migration of

revenue from print to online by attacking

under-penetrated segments and developing

new products and services

SEEK is well positioned for growth due to its market leadership,

exposure to favourable trends & improving job ad markets

“Benefits of education are obvious and the market

opportunity is large”21

Domestic Education – Favourable Industry Dynamics

Benefits of Education Current Situation

1. Income premium: Bachelor degree holders

earn on average 32% more than those with

no qualifications

2. Better employment prospects: Qualification

holders have significantly higher rates of

employment

3. Skills shortages: Mismatch between demand

& supply of qualified candidates likely to lead

to higher income premium & improved

employment outcomes

4. Knowledge economy: 68% of jobs created in

2009 were in the most highly skilled

occupation groups

1. Education penetration: 38% of population

aged 25-64 have no post-secondary

education and a further 35% have only VET

qualifications

2. Large gap between supply & demand:

Between 2012 & 2015, there is forecast to be

an average deficit of 40k students p.a.

between the supply & demand of Bachelor

graduates• For context, between 2012 & 2015 an

average of ~124k students graduate p.a. vs

the average 40k deficit p.a.

3. Large market potential: 2.3m Australians

aged 25-64 (20% of this population) wanted

to study but did not for various reasons

“The regulatory framework is supportive to the growth of the

private domestic education market”22

Domestic Education – Favourable Regulatory Dynamics

Key Aspirations of the Bradley Review Practical changes due to Bradley Review

1. Increase attainment of bachelor degrees: By

2025, 40% of all 25-34 years olds will hold a

qualification at bachelor level or above• Equates to 217k additional graduates

• Current attainment level is 27%

2. Double the number of VET/ higher

qualification completions: Equates to 45-50k

additional diploma & advanced diploma

graduates

3. Strong regulatory framework to improve

educational outcomes: Establishment of

TEQSA to focus on quality of institutions,

how institutions are performing relative to

others, impose sanctions on non-complying

institutions, etc

1. Removal of caps on C‟wlth Supported Places

(“CSP”): Students places will be funded on

the basis of student demand where the govt

will fund CSP places for all university

undergraduate domestic students

2. Private providers to play a meaningful role in

achieving education outcomes: From the

Bradley Review, “public-private divide is no

longer a sensible distinction”

3. Supportive funding environment: Extension

of “FEE-HELP” funding to eligible private

providers

• Higher Ed FEE-HELP grown by 48%

CAGR (2005 to 2010) for private

providers to ~$400m

SEEK Learning Group – Breakdown of P&L H1 FY11 – was a challenging half

SKL significantly increased sales

personnel in H1 FY11 to meet expected

short & medium-term demand

Increase in marketing costs driven by

competition for leads & investment in an

Leads and revenue growth lower than

Revenue growth not sufficient to offset

increases costs during H1 FY11, resulting

mobility trends

Total tertiary enrolments grown by 4x (1970 to 2007)

Mobile enrolments grew by ~3.5x(1975 to 2007)

Growth in international student mobility has

IDP – Australia’s international student sector

Challenging headwinds ... ...and Australia’s outlook is uncertain

Australia‟s international student sector is facing

headwinds: Changes to timing & requirements for student

visa

High AUD relative to historic range

Safety concerns for Indian Students

Closure of VET providers due to PR concerns

Hopeful that changes which reduce

assessment levels for student visa applications

in 38 countries (commenced April 20111) will

counter impact of high AUD and increased

competition

However, short-term expectation is that overall

English Language Teaching and VET Student

Placements will continue to decline Expectation is that decline will be at a slower

rate than in 2009/2010

Higher Education (main IDP exposure) has

performed better than English Language

Teaching & VET in recent years But expect outlook to be challenging for Higher

Education as its volumes tend to lag English

Language Teaching & VET Pathway

Commencing Enrolments (CY)

1 This change reduces the financial means requirements for prospective students and there is no requirement for assessment

interviews which should speed up the visa application process

Universities in these new markets are

increasingly looking to increase their revenue

Rationale for multi-destination Update on Multi-destination

USA: Over 80 institutions have signed up as

clients of IDP Brand awareness & acceptance of IDP has

been strong at recent trade & careers fairs

USA to contribute to revenue in H1 FY12 but

be loss making in FY12

UK & Canada entry 1st two UK and five Canadian clients signed in

March 2011

Intention to place int’l students from beginning

of 2012 academic year

In the long-term, believe that the new markets

will enrol as many students as IDP currently

enrols in Australia Expect solid incremental margins from student

placements as business has relatively fixed cost

Key Attributes & Key Markets Key Priorities

Strong brand with global recognition The preferred test for Australia, UK and Canada

and growing in popularity in the USA

IELTS was the pioneer test for English

Language & globally there are more than 1.4m

tests p.a.

IDP-IELTS key markets are Australia, India

and Canada comprising ~60% of total tests Australia: IELTS is the preferred test for

migration purposes but currently impacted by

flow on effect of weak migration volumes

India: Testing volumes impacted by issues in

UK and Australia but partially offset by Canada

emerging as a popular student destination

Canada: IELTS one of two tests for migration

purposes and is experiencing positive market

conditions

Managing current decrease in testing volumes

in India and expected decrease in Australia

Evaluate use of computer based testing for

IELTS IDP working in conjunction with British Council

& Cambridge

Market Development Grow and promote secondary uses of IELTS

eg. university exit testing, etc

SEEK owns some of

the world’s leading job

boards

• Backed by strong management teams & leading online media investors

• Leveraged to favourable structural & macro-economic trends in Asia &

Latin America

• Market leaders with a #1 or #2 position

Each business has a

demonstrable track

record of financial

performance

• Strong record of revenue & earnings growth in Brasil, OCC, JobsDB &

JobStreet and strong sales growth in Zhaopin

• SEEK‟s international investments have strong cash balances & no debt

• Growth in Cash & EBITDA are best indicators of financial performanceo SEEK’s share of NPAT is often distorted by movements in FX, PPA adjustments, etc

o Cash is best indicator of future outlook as job boards typically receive cash before

delivery of services

International

investments provide

SEEK with a strong

growth outlook

• SEEK‟s international investments are generally in early stage markets

which augurs well for consistent growth over a 5-10 year horizon

• SEEK‟s engagement is a highly scalable model

SEEK is a long-term

investor
