ASX RELEASE

Inabox Group core business revenue up 16%

Thursday, 27 February 2014: Inabox Group Limited (“Inabox”, ASX:IAB) has today reported its financial results for the half year ended 31 December 2013.

Inabox has reported a consolidated net profit after tax of $471,344 down 23.3% compared to the corresponding prior period, but an underlying revenue increase by 16.2% to $24.1 million.

The revenue increase is attributed to a combination of Inabox’s successful acquisition and integration of iVox alongside steady organic growth through recurring revenue generated by the existing customer base.

Inabox is broadening its future revenue and profit base by executing a strategy to enable corporate entities (such as retail, energy and financial services companies with mass market consumer bases and marketing expertise) to enter the telecommunications sector.

Investment in building and customising these enablement solutions for a number of customers has had a negative impact on profitability during the period.

Transitioning from an unlisted private company to a listed entity during this period has also incurred significant regulatory and corporate governance costs.

Organic and acquisitive growth Inabox expects to see earnings and profit growth from these new mass market customers as they transition to product launch and recurring revenue begins.

• Revenue up 16.2% to $24.1 million • NPAT down 23.3% to $471,344 due to:

o intensive investment in IT systems and network to enable mass market customers to offer telecommunications products,

o longer establishment timelines for new mass market customers, o transitioning to a listed company

• Anticipated improvement in results in the second half of the financial year as a mass market customer embarks on national marketing campaign

Additionally, growth through acquisition continues to be a priority with a focus on identifying opportunities for increased market penetration, through smaller aggregators, and broadening the product offer through cloud-based businesses.

iVox acquisition Inabox completed its acquisition of specialist VoIP provider iVox Pty Limited on 12th July, 2013, broadening the group’s skills and expertise in next generation VoIP products. iVox contributed a pre-tax profit for the period of $303,097.

Inabox is well positioned Damian Kay said: “The core business continues to track well. Our investment in the enablement strategy has incurred costs to the business, which is reflected in the lower profits than the previous comparative period, however this investment is setting us up for the future. I expect to show Shareholders an improvement in results for the second half of 2014 and into 2015.”

REVIEW OF RESULTS AND OPERATIONS

A. Business Acquisition

On 12 July 2013, Inabox Group Limited completed the acquisition of all of the issued share capital of iVox Pty Ltd. Accordingly the consolidated result for the half-year ended 31 December 2013 includes the results of iVox Pty Ltd from the date of acquisition up until the reporting date.

B. Profit Result

The consolidated net profit after tax for the half-year ended 31 December 2013 was $471,344 as compared to $614,575 for the half-year ended 31 December 2012.

The results reflect:

x The acquisition of iVox which reported an unaudited standalone profit before tax for the six months ended 31 December 2012 of $362,840. After attributing, on a pro forma basis, the additional amortisation attributable to intangible assets recognised as a result of the acquisition by Inabox Group Limited, iVox pre tax profit was approximately $225,000 before tax . As disclosed in note 3, iVox contributed $303,097 before tax in the half-year to 31 December 2013.

x Revenue growth as follows:

Revenue reported 31 December 2012

20,763,970

iVox revenue half-year ended 31 December 2012 1,794,247 Pro forma 31 December 2012

22,558,217 Organic growth

1,569,378 Revenue reported 31 December 2013

24,127,595

x Investment  in  developing  the  Group’s  high  volume  enablement  capability,  which  involves  the  customisation  and build of provisioning, monitoring, billing and collection systems for very large retail organisations. This repositioning of the business has necessitated a level of staff restructuring which increased non-recurring costs for the period.

x A transition from unlisted private company for the half-year December 2012 to listed entity during the current half-year with associated regulatory and governance costs.

REVIEW OF RESULTS AND OPERATIONS, continued

C. Cash Flow

The  Group’s  cash  position  was  significantly  strengthened  following  the  IPO  and  the  acquisition  of  iVox which provides a stable source of cash generation.

The  Group’s  operating  cashflow  for  the  half  year  ended  31  December  2013  is,  however,  substantially  lower  than  in  the prior comparative period. This is primarily attributable to:

x Significant credits for carrier price reductions were realised in cash in the half year to 31 December 12 in settlement of benefits accrued in the previous financial year. There was no corresponding lag in the current half-year to 31 December 2013.

x Significant enablement contracts generating income in the half year to 31 December 2013 not receivable until the subsequent period.

x Staff incentives were paid during the half-year to 31 December 2013. There was no corresponding payment during the half-year to 31 December 2012.

D. Balance Sheet

The schedule of key balance sheet Items shows that the combined effect of IPO and iVox acquisition has created a stronger business well placed to participate in the development and consolidation of the telecommunications industry:

Inabox Group Limited 31 December 2013

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2013

1. Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies

1.1 Basis of preparation

The consolidated results for the half year represent the activity of Inabox Group Limited and its subsidiaries Telcoinabox Operations Pty Ltd and iVox Pty Ltd (together,  “the  Group”).    The  comparative  results  for  2012  reflect  the results of Telco In A Box Pty Ltd, which on 8 May 2013 transferred its business to Telcoinabox Operations Pty Ltd.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 31 December 2013 have been prepared in accordance with AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required  in  the  annual  financial  statements,  and  should  be  read  in  conjunction  with  the  Group’s  annual  financial statements as at 30 June 2013.

For the purpose of preparing the half-year financial report, the half-year has been treated as a discrete reporting period.

1.2. Going Concern

At 31 December 2013 Inabox had a deficiency of net current assets of $457,938.

Net cash from operating activities during the half-year to 31 December 2013 totalled $391,447. The  Group’s  undrawn overdraft facilities at that date of $378,510. Cash flow forecasts based on current activity and business volumes indicate that the Group will be able to meet its debts as and when they fall due over the period to 30 June 2015.

In the light of these factors, the directors are of the opinion that the entity is a going concern as at the date of this report

1.3 Cyclicality

The Group is not subject to material cyclicality in its business performance as between half-year periods.

Inabox Group Limited 31 December 2013

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE HALF-YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2013, continued

1.4 Accounting Policies

The half-year financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies as used in the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2013, apart from the adoption of the following additional policies which arise from the expansion and diversification of the Group’s  activities  during  the  period.

(a) Revenue recognition on long term enablement contracts

Customers that require significant system and process development and customisation in order to meet their business requirements are charged interim enablement fees during the build / customisation process. These fees are calculated by reference to agreed recovery rates for staff costs and other direct expenses actually spent in the period.

Revenue from the provision of these services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion. Stage of completion is measured by reference to labour hours incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated labour hours for each contract. When the contract outcome cannot be measured reliably, revenue is recognised only to the extent that the expenses incurred are eligible to be recovered.

(b) Recognition and amortisation of acquired intangibles

Customer relationships are amortised over the period of expected future sales from the related asset. The amortisation expense is recognised in profit or loss.

Brands and goodwill have indefinite future lives and are tested for impairment annually at the consolidated entity level which is regarded as a single cash-generating unit.

There are no new and revised Standards and amendments thereof and Interpretations effective for the current reporting period that have a material impact on the Entity.

2. Initial Public Offering

In July 2013, Inabox Group Limited undertook the following capital raising activities:

Approximately 25% of this intangible asset will be amortised over five years, the balance over eight years from acquisition. Goodwill comprises the value of expected synergies arising from the acquisition. Fair values ascribed are provisional and may be reviewed at the end of the financial year.

x Software: net present value of 5 year royalty stream x Brand: net present value of a royalty stream in perpetuity, with a terminal value based on a long-term

sustainable growth rate of 2.5% p.a. x Customer relationships: net present value of multi-period excess earnings using estimated industry

customer churn factors of 10% for fully-hosted customers and 20% p.a. for call termination only customers. x The discount rate assumed was 20%.

20. Amounts held on behalf of related parties

As  disclosed  in  the  Group’s  Prospectus  of  23  May  2013  and  the  Annual  Report  for  the  year  ended  30  June  2013, Inabox acquired, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Telcoinabox Operations Pty Ltd, the operating assets of the Telcoinabox  business  from  a  subsidiary  of  Damordam  Pty  Ltd  (“Damordam”).    Damordam  is  an  entity  controlled  by  the founding shareholders of the Telcoinabox business who retain significant shareholdings in Inabox.

Damordam further sold the assets and liabilities of its New Zealand business, owned by Telcoinabox (NZ) Ltd, on 1 July 2013.

Damordam retained all historical obligations of the corporate entity which owned the Telcoinabox business, and retained beneficial ownership of sufficient current assets to discharge those obligations.

Inabox has subsequently realised, on behalf of the owners, the net proceeds of both the current assets retained by the Damordam group and the sale of the New Zealand business. On imminent finalisation of the tax returns of the Damordam group, Inabox will discharge those obligations out of the cash thus realised and remit any surplus to Damordam.
