Annual Report
Dear fellow shareholders,
I am pleased to present my
final letter as part of our FY24
Annual Report to you as Chair
of Infomedia.
Infomedia’s results for FY24
demonstrate the ongoing
successful execution during the Strengthen Phase of our
Transformation Strategy. I would like to highlight the strong
CAGR on Underlying Cash EBITDA of 15% for the past three
years. This demonstrates the exceptional capability of the team
and the capacity of the business to deliver profitable growth
and value for our shareholders.
Key achievements in FY24
The past financial year was characterised by a number of major
achievements demonstrating the hard work and achievements
of the team.
• Continued growth across all products and regions
• Further product portfolio diversification enabled continued
double-digit growth in Infodrive
• Successful renewals of major contracts including price
increases
• Product portfolio enhancements to improve scalability
• Further expanded our footprint in Mexico, Canada,
Malaysia and Japan
• Expanded our Chinese OEM contracts from two to four brand
partners (Chery, MG, LDV and GWM Haval)
• First light commercial vehicle category contract signed with
Isuzu and Hino expanding offerings into a new segment
FY24 financial performance
The financial year has delivered strong growth with total
revenue2 increasing by 8% to $140.8 million.
The company is well-placed to benefit from the automotive
macro-economic environment. We see clear opportunities for
growth in the digitisation at the dealership and OEM level and
are focused on working closely with our customers to address
and anticipate their needs.
The capability of the management team and broader business
to execute and deliver value to our customers is shown in our
growth in Exit Annual Recurring Revenue3 of 9% to $144.1 million.
We have delivered growth across all of our profit measures.
Underlying cash EBITDA1 increased by 17% to $33.0 million, and
we delivered a one percentage point increase in Underlying cash
EBITDA margin4 to 23%. Reported net profit after tax (NPAT)
was $12.7 million up 32%.
For FY24 we introduced a new measure, Net profit after tax
adjusted (NPATA1) which increased 26% to $20.9 million. This
measures the performance of the Group by excluding impacts
of acquisition costs, purchase price accounting and earnouts to
reflect the underlying financial performance.
Earnings per share increased 33% to 3.38 cents per share and
the company announced its final dividend of 2.0 cents per share
taking the total dividend for FY24 to 4.2 cents per share,
up 5% on FY23.
Infomedia continues to generate strong cash flow from
operations with Underlying free cash flow1 of $27.2 million.
Additionally, we retain a strong balance sheet, with $70 million
cash on hand at 30 June 2024 and no debt and continue to
prudently assess our capital allocations.

information within the Operating Segment Note.

Annual Report
Outlook
In FY24, Infomedia executed on the Strengthen Phase of
the Transformation Strategy. This focus will continue as we
strengthen our revenue while driving efficiency, operational
excellence and ongoing global expansion.
Infomedia expects to deliver total revenue in the range of
$144 million to $154 million in FY25.
The Company expects to deliver stable margins as we invest in
the strengthen phase. Additionally, the above guidance assumes
no adverse movement in exchange rate and is subject to the
macro-economic environment remaining unchanged.
Board Renewal
In July, I announced that I would retire as Chairman at the
conclusion of Infomedia’s 2024 Annual General Meeting
scheduled for 19 November 2024. As part of this transition, I am
pleased that we also announced Jon Brett joining the Board as
Chairman-elect. Jon brings extensive board and management
experience, with a strong background in finance, technology and
corporate advisory.
It has been an honour to serve on the Board over the past nine
years and as Chairman over the past eight years. I stepped
into this role during a transformational period for Infomedia
and have seen the company achieve nine consecutive years
of revenue growth, further expand its products, enter new
regions and overseen the establishment of a strong and
renewed Board and Executive Leadership Team. I am pleased
with the progress the company has made under Jens and the
leadership team and leave the Company in highly capable hands
at both a board and management level.
Acknowledgements
The Infomedia Board continues to be confident in the outlook
for the Company.
I would like to thank the executive leadership team for
delivering a strong set of results. These results reflect the
ongoing focus on delivering quality products for Infomedia’s
customers and continuing to create shareholder value.
I would also like to acknowledge the dedication and hard work
of our employees around the world, without which, the results
in FY24 would not have been possible.
The Board also expresses its appreciation to our shareholders
for your support over the past year.

Annual Report
Dear Shareholders
I am pleased to present our
FY24 Annual Report. This year
we have once more delivered a
solid set of results while at the
same time creating value for
our shareholders.
I would firstly like to acknowledge the hard work and dedication
from our Executive Leadership Team and all our employees and
thank them for their support as we continue to execute on our
transformation strategy.
FY24 Highlights1
Over the year, we have demonstrated consistent and pleasing
results. We have delivered an 8% increase in total revenue1 and
strong and profitable growth across all products and regions,
underpinned by 99% recurring revenue.
We increased growth in our mature products with Superservice
up 13% and Microcat up 5%. Further investment in our product
portfolio has enabled continued double-digit growth in
Infodrive. We will continue to strengthen this solution group
in FY25 in preparation for global scaling.
Additionally, we continued to strengthen and grow the sales
pipeline, generating revenue uplift through contract renewals.
Infomedia’s long-term aim is to scale our eco-system and
accelerate growth in annual recurring revenue (ARR)2 with a
controlled increase in our annual recurring costs (ARC)2.
To further strengthen our global footprint we are working
with clients to achieve improved long-term contract value
aligned with the company’s superior solutions. We expect some
customer churn from SimplePart impacting the first half of
FY25. During FY24, a number of major contracts were renewed
with price increases that will come into effect in the second half
of FY25.
As at 30 June 2024, both exit ARR and ARC increased 9% in
constant currency demonstrating execution on our strategy.
Our Reported Net Profit After Tax increased 32% to $12.7 million
and our earnings per share increased 33% to 3.38 cents.
We are in a strong financial position with $70 million of cash
on hand and no debt. We continue to prudently assess capital
allocation between organic investment, strategic growth
opportunities including M&A, and to ensure sustainable returns
to shareholders.
In summary, the company is in a very good shape and the
strategy is delivering results.
Key Achievements in the first part
of the Strengthen Phase
To reiterate where we are on our transformation journey, we
moved from the Change Phase in FY23 and have delivered the
first part of our Strengthen Phase in FY24.
As part of this phase, we have streamlined our systems and
processes over the year including working to enable a future
joint data landing approach to reduce data handling and
improve efficiencies.
Importantly, we strengthened our cyber security measures,
including cyber detection and penetration testing, and we
received ISO 27001 certification3 to ISO27001:2022 standards.
On our regional progress, Infomedia has strengthened its
footprint in the Americas with increased penetration into
Mexico and Canada with additional language capabilities.
In APAC, Infomedia has secured new contracts in Malaysia
and with Chinese OEMs expanding the brand partners to now
include Chery, MG, LDV and GWM Haval.
We also recently signed on light commercial vehicle customers
opening a new segment providing further growth opportunities.

Update on People
In the past two years we have established a new Executive
Leadership Team with five internal promotions and two new
appointments. During the year we promoted a Chief Operating
Officer (COO) and appointed a Chief People and Culture Officer
(CPCO). In EMEA we have commenced strengthening the
region and are working on appointing a new head of region in
continental Europe. This will provide further opportunity to
increase our presence and footprint in the region.
We have a strong and dynamic leadership team underpinned
by exceptional domain knowledge with the right diversity of
background and experience.
I am very pleased with the progress we have made across the
business, and I could not have done it without the team we
have in place.
Thank you
Infomedia continues to strengthen the business and build
a track record of profitable growth. We remain focused on
the four pillars of our long-term strategy, people, product,
processes and performance. On people, I want to personally
say a big thank you to the entire Infomedia team for their
dedication and commitment over the past year.
I also want to thank our shareholders and the Board for your
trust and support and acknowledge the contribution of our
Chairman Bart Vogel over the past eight years.
Finally, I would like to express my appreciation to our valued
customers for their continuing support and business.
I am looking forward to the coming year.

Principal activities
During FY24, the principal activities of Infomedia Ltd consisted of:
• the development and supply of SaaS offerings, including electronic parts catalogues, service quoting software systems and
e-commerce solutions for the parts and service sectors of the global automotive industry; and
• the information management, provision of DaaS and analytics to assist automakers and dealers optimise operations, grow sales and

Financial Overview
Infomedia’s result for FY24 demonstrates the successful execution of our Transformation Strategy. Revenue for FY24 was $140.8
million, an 8% increase on the prior year1, with recurring revenue of 99%. The business continues to see strong demand across our
diversified and global product suite and is well positioned for long-term success.

and $109.9 million, respectively.
Underlying cash EBITDA3 was $33.0 million, up 17% on FY23 and underlying cash EBITDA margin4 improved by one percentage
point, due to continuous growth in revenue and cost discipline. This demonstrates the ability to strengthen margin with an ongoing
commitment to grow profitably.
Net profit after tax (NPAT) was $12.7 million, up 32%, on FY23 and earnings per share increased 33% to 3.38 cents. Infomedia

was $20.9 million an increase of 26% on FY23.
Underlying free cash flow of $27.2 million declined by $1.7 million, impacted by an increase of $3.5 million in income tax payments

capital allocation between organic investment, strategic growth opportunities including M&A, and to ensure sustainable returns
to shareholders.

2024 and the payment date is 18 September 2024.

market leader in the data-driven automotive ecosystem and better serve our growing global customer base.

Revenue Growth
The business has delivered continued growth across all products and all regions. We increased growth in the mature products with
Superservice up 13% and Microcat up 5%.

information within the Operating Segment Note.

Annual Report
Additionally, we continued to strengthen and grow the sales pipeline, generating revenue uplift through contract renewals. A key
focus has been on revenue quality. This includes building the recurring revenue base and working with clients to achieve improved
long-term contract value aligned with the Company’s superior solutions. We expect some customer churn from SimplePart impacting
the first half of FY25. However, a number of major contracts were renewed with price increases that will come into effect in the
second half of FY25.
Further investment in our product portfolio has enabled continued double-digit growth in Infodrive. We will continue to strengthen
Infodrive in FY25 in preparation for global scaling.
Operational Excellence
We continued to deliver on our product enhancements across our solutions suite and expanding our innovation pipeline during FY24.
We are working to enable a future joint data landing approach to reduce data handling and improve efficiencies.

EBITDA3 margin improvement.
During the year, we have implemented a Trust Management Center to improve our cyber security risk profile and we received
updated ISO 270011 certification to the ISO27001:2022 standard.

In APAC, Infomedia has secured new contracts in Malaysia and with Chinese OEMs who now include Chery, MG, LDV and GWM Haval as
brand partners.
We also recently signed on light commercial vehicle customers opening a new segment providing further growth opportunities.

Business objectives and strategies
Infomedia’s core parts and service, e-commerce, data analytics and business insights products support both the manufacturer and
dealer enabling their key objectives to sell more automaker branded parts and retain customers to their brands through competitive
pricing and service. As a result of declining new car sales in recent years, auto manufacturers and dealers are increasingly focused
on the most profitable segments of the value chain, growing genuine parts and service aftersales and retaining customers to their
brands from one purchase to the next.
Infomedia’s software is developed to specific requirements with original manufacturer genuine parts and service data that is
accurately priced and specific to each vehicle identification number (VIN). The Company’s software solutions are available in
40 languages and more than 195 countries and sold direct to the manufacturer, the national sales company and the dealer.
Outlook
Infomedia’s FY25 total revenue guidance is $144 million to $154 million.
Risks
Infomedia is subject to risks that may have material adverse effect on operating and financial performance. The Group adopts a risk
management process, which is an integral part of the Group’s corporate governance structure and applies risk mitigation strategies
where feasible. Despite best efforts, some risks remain outside Infomedia’s control. Infomedia has identified the following key risks

Annual Report
Dear Shareholders,
On behalf of the Infomedia Board, I am pleased to present the Remuneration Report for FY24. This
report details the governance, framework and outcomes of the Company’s remuneration practices
for the Directors and Senior Executives who were Key Management Personnel (KMP) for Infomedia
during the year.
The Board believes the remuneration framework, which it continues to develop and refine, provides a structure to retain
and attract the right people whilst generating and improving sustainable shareholder returns.
Company Performance
Building on the appointment of a new Executive Leadership Team (ELT) in FY23, the Company has continued to strengthen the
Executive Leadership Team to enhance our talent and leadership capabilities, and to facilitate growth and operational effectiveness.
This included the appointment of a Chief People & Culture Officer and an internal promotion to the role of Chief Operating Officer.
These changes are already contributing to strong performance outcomes, as reflected in this Annual Report and are helping to build
upon our people and culture initiatives.
The Company’s culture continues to evolve with an increasing global view. The Board was delighted to see employee engagement
being measured globally and the ELT’s continued focus on collectively creating a strong Company culture. Additionally, this year we are
proud to be recognised and accredited as a Family Friendly Workplace.
Remuneration Outcomes
I am also delighted to report that the FY24 remuneration outcomes align with the strategic objectives and performance outcomes
of the Company for the fiscal year. Below is a summary of Fixed Remuneration, Short-Term Incentive (STI) and Long-Term Incentive
(LTI) outcomes:
FY24 STI
• Financial – The Company delivered a strong result for shareholders, exceeding target Revenue and Cash EBITDA, resulting in a 62%
achievement against the 60% weighting allocated to the financial objectives.
• Strategic – The strategic objectives outlined in Table 7 of this report were set to align with the Strengthen Phase of the Company’s
strategy, resulting in an overall score of 20% achievement.
• Organisational Culture – An increase in both global employee engagement and Customer NPS were above target, which lead to 24%
achievement of the 20% weighting allocated
• A total outcome of 106% was achieved compared to the FY23 STI outcome of 95%
FY22 – 24 LTI
• Financial (100% of Plan) – The team achieved 47.5% vesting of share appreciation rights (SARS) following partial attainment of
three-year revenue growth targets. EPS growth targets were not met resulting in nil vesting of performance rights.
Non-Executive Director Fees
A review of Non-executive Directors fees was also conducted in FY24, taking into consideration the market benchmarking for
positions at relevant ASX listed organisations of comparable size and complexity. As part of this review, it was determined that an
increase of 3% to the Chair fee, base director fees, Chair of Committee fees and Member of Committee fees was required to fairly
compensate Non-Executive Directors for their services.
Addressing feedback from shareholders
The Company received a ‘first strike’ against its FY2023 Remuneration Report at the 2023 AGM. We understand the concerns raised
by shareholders in relation to the Company’s variable remuneration program and we believe that the forward looking remuneration
program adequately addresses these.
Directors’ Report
infomedia.com.au 19
2024
Annual Report
As stated at the 2023 AGM, the Board took a deliberate decision to issue a retention-based equity component to the renewed
executive leadership team. The majority of the team were internally promoted, demonstrating the effectiveness of the Company’s
succession planning. The team did not previously have meaningful equity participation, and therefore, the retention element was
useful to more quickly align the interests of the team with shareholders.
We also wish to re-affirm that the Board does not intend to issue any further retention-based element in the ELT LTI program in FY25.
We appreciate the feedback of our shareholders as we continually refine our remuneration program to ensure the remuneration
practices remain appropriate for the business, aligned to shareholder interests and consistent with contemporary practices. We
have responded to your feedback on selecting the most appropriate and robust measures with which to measure performance
and providing sufficient transparency in the calculation of outcomes to ensure the right outcomes are rewarded. We have also
made a number of changes in our approach to the FY25 variable remuneration incentives, in addition to undertaking remuneration
benchmarking with a third-party provider.
Enhancements to Remuneration Structure and Disclosures
LTI
In FY25 we will introduce a second performance measure to our LTI. We will include adjusted EPS, calculated using Net Profit After
Tax Adjusted (NPATA) which is a consistent measure by which company performance can be reflected by excluding impacts of
acquisition costs, purchase price accounting and earnouts (refer to Note 1 (Segment Note) and Note 3 (Earnings per Share) of the
Annual Report for further detail).
STI
As previously outlined, we believe it is important for our Executive Leadership Team to create long-term sustainable growth. In FY25,
we will for the first time include a deferred equity component in the STI, which would further align Key Management Personnel (KMPs)
with shareholders and market best practices.
In addition we will include stretch targets to incentivise the Executive Leadership Team to out-perform.
The changes we are introducing in FY25 underscore our commitment to addressing shareholder concerns. Details of the changes will
be outlined in more detail in our Notice of Meeting, prior to our AGM.
We will continue to engage with relevant stakeholders in relation to remuneration at Infomedia. The Remuneration, People and
Culture Committee will continue to evaluate the effectiveness of the Executive KMP remuneration framework. Our aim is to engage,
motivate, and retain Executives in a competitive talent landscape while ensuring alignment with shareholder interests. We appreciate
your feedback and look forward to engaging in discussions with you throughout the year ahead.
Yours sincerely,
Kim Anderson

2. Remuneration governance
This Report has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and Accounting Standard AASB
124 Related Party Disclosures. The term ‘remuneration’ as used in this Report has the same meaning as ‘compensation’ as defined in
AASB 124.
Report preparation
The Remuneration, People & Culture Committee (‘RPC Committee’) of the Board presents this Report on
behalf of the Company.
Committee members
The RPC Committee comprised the following Non-Executive Directors during the period:
• Kim Anderson (Committee Chair)
• Bart Vogel
• Edwina Gilbert
Committee
responsibilities
The RPC Committee is responsible for reviewing and determining remuneration arrangements for the
Non-Executive Directors and the Executive leadership team. The Committee is also charged with
responsibility to assist and advise the Board to fulfil its duties on matters relating to:
• the composition and quantum of remuneration, bonuses, incentives and remuneration issues
relating to Executive KMP and other senior management personnel;
• policies relating to remuneration, incentives and superannuation for all employees;
• remuneration of Non-Executive Directors; and
• other matters as required.
The Committee operates in accordance with its charter, a copy of which is available on the
Company’s website at:
https://www.infomedia.com.au/investors/corporate-governance/remuneration-committee-charter/
a. External remuneration advisory services
The RPC Committee received no remuneration recommendations in the period.
b. Prior year Remuneration Report – AGM outcome
At the AGM for the financial year ended 30 June 2023 (FY23) 31.82% of the votes cast were against the FY23 Remuneration Report
(a first ‘strike’). The Infomedia Board is committed to listening to any concerns raised by shareholders and other stakeholders relating
to the remuneration framework or remuneration outcomes and address these concerns where appropriate.
The table below summarises the key concerns and issues raised during the engagements with investors and proxy advisors with
regards to FY23.
Concern
Response
Hurdle for 50% equity
based solely on tenure
In FY23 we established a new executive team via internal promotion. These executives did not all
previously participate in the LTI scheme. During this period of change, the tenure incentive was
implemented to stabilise the ELT and enable strategy implementation and retention of
corporate knowledge.
The Board has spent considerable time during the year assessing the most appropriate and
relevant performance measures to align with shareholder outcomes going forward.
Lack of transparency and
perceived stretch targets
within long term incentives
(LTI)
The FY24 LTI was set to incentivise the ELT to focus on profitably growing the core business and
therefore it excluded the financial impact of acquisitions. The LTI performance measures,
thresholds and vesting schedule are set out in Table 8 of this report. In the board’s view,
by excluding acquisitions, the LTI sufficiently stretched the ELT.
For the FY25 LTI, the financial statements will disclose the calculation of the adjusted EPS
performance measure reconciled to the statutory result. An example of this can be found in the
FY24 financial statements at note 1 Operating Segments (NPATA) and note 2 Earnings per Share
(Adjusted EPS).
No deferral component of
short term incentives (STI)
The KMP remuneration framework has been reviewed to include an equity deferral component,
going forward, to better align with market practice and shareholder interest.
Lack of transparency of STI
metrics and achievement
The remuneration report provides additional transparency on the STI measures and outcomes for
the KMP, considering the commercial sensitivity of some goals.

3. Executive KMP
a. Remuneration philosophy and structure
The Company’s remuneration framework aligns Executive reward with the achievement of strategic objectives and shareholder
returns. The performance of the Company relies upon the quality of its Directors and Executives to lead the organisation.
The Company must attract, motivate and retain skilled Directors and Executives to deliver on key strategic goals.
Compensation must be competitive, appropriate for the results delivered, and aligned with shareholder outcomes.
The Company’s core values, key strategies and purpose are key considerations when designing and implementing the Executive
remuneration framework.
During the reporting period the Company applied the following philosophy when setting its remuneration framework:

Termination Clauses
Executive KMP have no special termination payment conditions.
All agreements provide for dismissal due to gross misconduct.
The termination period by either party is six months for the CEO
and MD and three months for the CFO.
Other Benefits
Other benefits offered to Executive KMP include reasonable telephone
expenses, reimbursement for up to $5,000 for professional membership
and development fees and for the CEO and MD, $20,000 for personal health
and life insurance.
Notes to Table 3
(1) Executive contracts are ongoing with no specified end dates.
(2) The CEO & MD was provided with a sign-on bonus to attract and retain a candidate of his calibre. The bonus was contractually structured in the form of equity
interests divided into 3 tranches of equal value vesting on the first 3 anniversaries of the commencement date and expiring on 31 December 2025. The bonus
structure achieves the purpose of attraction whilst the deferred equity component ensures greater alignment with shareholder interests.
(3) The CFO received an increase from $320,000 to $350,000 on 1st March 2024 to reflect the additional responsibilities of taking on the global Information Systems team.
(4) Superannuation contributions are paid in line with legislative requirements. Superannuation contribution amounts reflect the reported financial year superannuation
guarantee contribution rate.
(5) STI opportunity represents the maximum potential STI remuneration that could be earned by each KMP in a financial year based on defined goals and stretch targets
set for the financial year.
(6) LTI opportunity value is used to calculate the number of LTIs that may be granted to each KMP in the form of Share Appreciation Rights (SARs), Performance Rights
(PRs) or Restricted Stock Units (RSUs).
The LTI value reported is based on criteria and fair value determined under AASB 2 Share Based Payments and could differ from the contract value above. The actual
LTI value that each KMP may receive is dependent on the specified conditions of each LTI class being met and the market price of the Company’s shares on any
exercise date.

A non-IFRS measure disclosed in Infomedia’s Operating Segment Note
(note 1 to the Annual Financial Report).
Non-Financial Measures:
These recognise the importance of key strategic priorities and employee engagement in achieving
business transformation. The Board decides on pre-determined strategic performance objective targets
at the beginning of the performance period, which are linked to longer-term strategy and value creation
for shareholders. The strategic objective outcomes are provided within Table 7 STI outcomes.
Link of
performance
and reward
For each measure, there is a minimum threshold of performance required which needs to be met before
any pay-out is awarded for that portion of the STI.
An incremental scale applies in accordance with achievement of financial measures, with the intention to
motivate and fairly reward exceptional performance outcomes. The achievement of performance
measures is assessed through a rating scale:

Cessation of

If an Executive KMP ceases employment with the Company prior to any awards being paid, unless the Board
determines otherwise, in accordance with the plan rules the Executive KMP will forfeit any awards to be
paid for the performance period.

e. Long term incentives (LTIs)
Table 8: Key features of FY24 LTI plan
Feature
Approach
Description
Eligible Executive KMPs participate in the LTI plan, with an opportunity that is ‘at risk’ subject to specific
pre-determined Group performance measures being met over a three-year period. The plan is designed to align
Executive KMP’s interests with those of shareholders.
Opportunity
The LTI opportunity reflects accountabilities and influence over the Company’s long-term performance within
each role. Market benchmarks are also referenced in determining the LTI opportunity. The maximum face value
of LTI that is granted, is referenced as a percentage of Fixed Remuneration (FR) is:
Role
LTI as percentage of FR
CEO
110%
CFO
40%
Performance &
vesting period
Performance is measured over three financial years. Any performance rights that do not vest following testing
will lapse.
Delivery
In FY24 the Board decided to simplify the FY24-26 LTI plan to have only two equity vehicles. Fifty percent of
the opportunity in FY24 were granted as performance rights (PRs), with vesting subject to financial metrics
being met as well as an ongoing service condition. The remaining opportunity was granted as restricted stock
units (RSUs) which are linked to an ongoing service condition.
Allocation
approach
The number of rights granted are calculated using the following ‘Award Allocation Valuation’ formula:
LTI Award Opportunity
= Number of LTI to be issued
Reference Price
The number of LTI issued were evenly apportioned between PRs and RSUs. The “Reference Price” used to
determine the allocation was $1.55 and was determined using the Company’s 21-day trading VWAP to 30 June 2023.
The fair value per right was calculated as $1.335 (Fair Valuation). This was based on a grant date of
13 December 2023.
The difference between the ‘Award Allocation Valuation’ and the ‘Fair Valuation’ is due to the timing differences
arising from the shareholder approval process to allocate the equity instruments to the Managing Director.
The difference is reflected in the accounting value attributed to the instruments in the Company’s accounts
and does not equate to any more or less equity incentives being granted than those approved by shareholders
as set out in the Company’s Notice of Annual General Meeting. This approach is consistent with the Company’s
practice in prior years and is consistent with market practice.
Performance
Measures,
Thresholds
and Vesting
Schedule
The performance measures are as follows:
Performance Rights
Rights will vest subject to the attainment of compound annual growth (‘CAGR’) on earnings per share (EPS) and
continual employment. The Company has selected EPS CAGR given its direct link with shareholder returns.
The 2023 EPS has been adjusted to exclude various non-cash and non-recurring items for the purposes of
determining LTI outcomes.
CAGR above FY23 Adjusted EPS of 4.03 cps
% of Rights that vest
Below 5% CAGR
0%
Threshold: At 5% CAGR
25%
Between 5% and 10% CAGR
Straight line vesting between 25% and 100%
Maximum: At or above 10% CAGR
100%
Restricted Stock Units
Do not carry specific performance conditions but are subject to continuing employment.
Selection of
Performance
Measures
EPS was used as a basis for company performance, excluding acquisitions. The selection of this measure was
to focus the ELT on extracting more from the core operations and organic growth was the focus. This was
determined to be a good driver of that outcome.

Approach
Governance
Mechanisms
Share Trading Policy:
The Company maintains a formal Securities Trading Policy regarding the trading of Infomedia shares by employees.
The policy prohibits trading based on insider information and limits the ability of ‘Restricted Persons’ to trade in
the Company’s shares to several short trading windows following the release of half year and full year financial
results and following the Annual General Meeting. The policy also prohibits short term or speculative trading.
Prohibition against hedging:
Additionally, the Company’s Equity Plan Rules and Equity Bonus Plan Rules prohibit Plan participants from entering
hedging arrangements to limit the risk of their variable LTI component.
Minimum
Shareholding
Requirement
Senior management are encouraged to hold shares in the Company, however there is no requirement on
Executive KMP to hold a minimum quantity of the Company’s shares at any time.
Malus
Provisions
The LTI scheme is subject to appropriate malus provisions entitling the Board, at its discretion, to pursue remedies
where the participant has engaged in (among other things) fraud, dishonesty or gross misconduct. Remedies
include the ability to suspend, reduce or extinguish outstanding entitlements in appropriate circumstances.
Dividend and
Voting Rights
No dividends or voting rights are attached to the LTI interests unless they are converted into fully paid
ordinary shares.
Disposal
Restrictions
Shares received from the conversion of equity instruments are not subject to any disposal restrictions but are
governed by the Company’s Securities Trading Policy and the law.
Ability to
cash settle
The Board retains a discretion as to how vested and exercised LTI entitlements may be settled, including by the
payment of cash instead of issuing shares. The Board notes that all Australian based employees, including the KMP,
have their LTI’s settled in the form of shares.

b. Remuneration structure and governance principles
Remuneration
structure
Non-Executive Directors are remunerated in the form of Board fees, Committee chair fees and
superannuation paid in line with legislative requirements.
Fees are fixed in accordance with formal agreements held between the Non-Executive Directors and the
Company (subject to periodic increases) and are paid from an aggregate fee pool limit of $850,000, as last
approved by shareholders in 2019. Fees are fixed and are not variable with performance metrics to account
for independence and governance considerations.
Directors may also be reimbursed for travel and other expenses incurred in attending to the affairs of the Company.
Minimum
shareholding
requirement
The Company does not impose any requirement on Non-Executive Directors to hold a minimum quantity of its
shares. However, the Company does have an expectation that Non-Executive Directors hold a minimum share
balance, equivalent to their annual director fees, within three years of commencing on the Board.
For further detail see Table 16 for further detail.

Annual Report
Auditor
Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu continues in office in accordance with section 327 of the Corporations Act 2001.
Non-audit services
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor are
outlined in Note 23 Remuneration of auditors of the FY24 Financial Report.
The Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor (or by another person
or firm on the auditor’s behalf), is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations
Act 2001.
The Directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in Note 23 of the FY24 Financial Report do not compromise the
external auditor’s independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
• all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the
auditor; and
• none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for
Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, including reviewing or auditing the
auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the Company, acting as advocate for the Company or
jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.
Auditor’s independence declaration
A copy of the auditor’s independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out immediately
after this Directors’ Report.
Rounding of amounts
The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, issued
by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to ‘rounding-off ’. Amounts in this report have been rounded off in
accordance with that Corporations Instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar.
This report is made in accordance with a resolution of Directors, pursuant to section 298(2)(a) of the Corporations Act 2001.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
30 June 2024
Note 1. Operating segments
Identification of reportable segments
The Group is organised into three reportable segments:
●
Asia Pacific;
●
Europe, Middle East and Africa ('EMEA'); and
●
Americas, representing the combined North, Central and South America.
These reportable segments are based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Board of Directors (who are
identified as the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of
resources. There is no aggregation of reportable segments.
The reportable segments are identified by management based on the region in which products are sold or managed from.
Discrete financial information about each of these operating segments is reported to the Board of Directors regularly.
The CODM reviews underlying cash earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation ('Underlying Cash EBITDA').
The accounting policies adopted for internal reporting to the CODM are consistent with those adopted in the financial
statements.
Major customers
There is no significant reliance on any single customer.
Presentation of reportable segment information
The key internal measure of each operating segment's profit or loss reported regularly to the CODM is Underlying Cash
EBITDA. This measure reflects the ongoing or underlying activities of each segment of the Group and excludes income and
expenditure that may arise on an infrequent basis or due to activities that are not core to that of the Group. Only costs that
are controlled by each segment in relation to its operating activities and generation of revenue for the Group are included in
its Underlying Cash EBITDA.
The Group changed its presentation of non-operating expenses to split out acquisition related expenses from organic Group
operations. Net profit after tax adjusted (NPATA) is used to assess the performance of the Group by excluding impacts of
acquisition costs, purchase price accounting and earn-outs, to reflect the underlying financial performance of the Group. This
change aligns with changes in internal management reporting. NPATA has been reconciled to NPAT including presentation
to prior period comparatives. There is no impact on revenue or net profit after tax reported for the Group as a result of
this change.
Reported net profit after tax ('reported NPAT') is adjusted for the following non-underlying items to determine Underlying Cash
EBITDA:
●
Earnout expenses (adjusted from employee benefits expenses)
●
Share-based payment expenses (adjusted from employee benefits expenses)
●
Capitalised development costs (adjusted from employee benefits expenses)
●
Business restructuring costs (adjusted from employee benefits expenses)
●
AASB 16 non-cash adjustments (adjusted from facilities expenses)
●
Impairment expense
●
Business systems upgrade (adjusted from IT operating expenses)
●
Acquisition expenses and other costs (adjusted from marketing, travel and other expenses)
●
Unrealised foreign exchange gains/losses
●
Net finance expense/income
●
Income tax benefit/expense
●
Amortisation of acquired and other intangibles (adjusted from depreciation and amortisation expenses)
A reconciliation of Underlying Cash EBITDA to reported NPAT is disclosed in the operating segment information presented
below.

The Directors believe the presentation of “adjusted earnings per share” provides a useful measure to assess the
performance of the Group by excluding impacts of acquisition purchase price accounting to arrive at an adjusted profit
measure (NPATA, refer note 1 further details) which reflects the underlying financial performance of the Group. The
adjustments disclosed are tax effected and align with note 1 Operating Segment.
Accounting policy for earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of Infomedia by the weighted average
number of ordinary shares outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for any bonus elements in ordinary shares issued
during the financial year and excluding treasury shares.
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account the
after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the weighted
average number of shares assumed to have been issued at no consideration received in relation to dilutive potential ordinary
shares.

●
any franking debits that will arise from the payment of dividends recognised as a liability at the reporting date; and
●
franking credits that will arise from the receipt of dividends recognised as receivables at the reporting date.
Accounting policy for dividends
Dividends are recognised when declared during the financial year.
On 26 August 204, the directors declared a final dividend of 2.0 cents per share to be paid on 15 September 2024, franked
to 100%. As this occurred after the reporting date, the dividends declared have not been recognised in these financial
statements and will be recognised in future financial statements. The total estimated dividend to be paid is $7.476 million

Revenue recognition
The Group derives the majority of its revenue from recurring ‘software as a service’ subscriptions, where customers are
licensed to access and use software and associated support services.
The Group generates the following revenue streams:
Subscription and related revenue:
●
subscriptions to the Group’s software products including development services to tailor off-the-shelf software solutions
for specific use or functionality requirements or integration with customers’ systems; and
●
agency services for advertising support provided to customers.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 4. Revenue and expenses (continued)
Other ancillary service revenue:
●
ancillary services in the form of software installation and training.
Each of the above services delivered to customers are considered separate performance obligations even though, in practice,
they may be governed by a single legal contract with the customer.
Revenue recognition for each of the above revenue streams are as follows:
Subscription and related revenue:
●
Subscription revenue:
˃ Customers are typically invoiced monthly, quarterly or yearly based on the terms in the contract with customers, and
consideration is payable when invoiced. The consideration received for quarterly or yearly invoices is recognised as
contract liabilities.
˃ Revenue is then recognised ratably over the life of the subscription agreement beginning when the customer first has
access to the software.
˃ Revenue is calculated based on the number of subscriptions used and fee per subscription, or as a negotiated
package for large customers.
●
Software development services:
˃ The software development services are typically invoiced as defined in the contract with the customers. Revenue is
recognised over time as services are delivered.
˃ Revenue is calculated based on time and/or external supplier costs.
●
Agency services:
˃ Revenue is generated when Infomedia acts as an agent and arranges search engine marketing provided by suppliers
to customers, and in return obtains a fee based on a set percentage.
˃ The revenue is variable and is not subject to material constraints hence it is recognised at the time the expense is
incurred with the supplier as this is when the service is provided to the customer and the performance obligation is
satisfied.
Other ancillary service revenue:
●
Ancillary services:
˃ The ancillary services are software installation and training and are invoiced as defined in the contract with the
customers.
˃ Revenue is recognised either at a point in time or over time depending on how the terms of the service arrangements
are satisfied.
Finance costs
Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed in the
period in which they are incurred.

Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The Group is subject to income taxes in the jurisdictions in which it operates. Significant judgement is required in determining
the provision for income tax. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business
for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain, for example, research and development claims. The Group recognises
liabilities for anticipated tax based on the Group's current understanding of the relevant tax regulations. Where the final tax
outcome of these matters is different from the carrying amounts, such differences will impact the current and deferred tax
provisions in the period in which such determination is made.
The Company has made claims under the research and development tax incentive provided by the Australian Government
(R&D incentive). The R&D incentive is claimed by way of self-assessment by the Company.
Accounting policy for income tax
The income tax expense or benefit for the period is the tax payable on that period's taxable income based on the applicable
income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary
differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when the assets are recovered or
liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates that are enacted or substantively enacted.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future
taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses. The carrying amount of recognised and
unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred tax assets recognised are reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for the carrying amount to be recovered.
Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that there are future taxable profits
available to recover the asset.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against
current tax liabilities and deferred tax assets against deferred tax liabilities; and they relate to the same taxable authority on
either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously.

Impairment testing
The Group performs impairment testing for:
●
Goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets on an annual basis regardless of whether there are any indicators of
impairment; and
●
Other intangibles where there are indicators of impairment.
The Group considers the relationship between its market capitalisation and its book value, among other factors, when
reviewing for indicators of impairment.

Impairment assessment
To conduct impairment testing, the Group compares the carrying value with the recoverable amount of each CGU. The
recoverable amount is the higher of value in use or fair value less costs of disposal. An income approach (discounted cash
flow methodology) is used to determine the recoverable amount of each CGU.
The key assumptions1 used in the impairment assessment were as follows:
●
APAC: revenue growth rates applied up to 9%; terminal growth rate of 2.5% and post-tax weighted average cost of
capital of 10.5%.
Americas: revenue growth rates applied up to 10%; terminal growth rate of 2.5% and post-tax weighted average cost of
capital of 10.5%.
●
EMEA: revenue growth rates applied up to 9%; terminal growth rate of 2.5% and post-tax weighted average cost of
capital of 10.5%.
The Group calculates the recoverable amount of each CGU through the preparation of a fair value less cost of disposal
impairment valuation model. At the end of the current and prior year, the recoverable amount exceeded the carrying value for
each CGU and no impairment has been recognised.
No reasonable change in key assumptions would result in the recoverable amount being less than the carrying amount for
any CGU.
1 Key assumptions are those to which the recoverable amount is most sensitive. The approach taken in determining the
values assigned to each key assumption was to consider past experience, external sources of information and external
advice where relevant.
Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions – research and development
Research and development expenses incurred relate to works provided by third parties and internal salaries and on-costs of
employees. Research costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Development costs are capitalised when
it is probable that the project will be a success considering its commercial and technical feasibility, and the costs can be
measured reliably.
The key judgements relate to:
●
determining the portion of the internal salary and on-costs that are directly attributable to development of the Group’s
product suite and software; and
●
identifying and assessing the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset and generating future economic
benefits.

Note 6. Non-current assets - intangibles (continued)
An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of the development asset exceeds its recoverable amount.
The Group determines the estimated useful lives for the capitalised development costs. The useful lives could change
significantly as a result of technical innovations or some other event. The amortisation charge will increase where the useful
lives are less than previously estimated lives, or technically obsolete or items no longer in use will be written off or written
down.
Accounting policy for intangible assets
Goodwill
Goodwill arises on the acquisition of a business. Goodwill is not amortised. Instead, goodwill is tested annually for impairment,
or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired and is carried at cost less
accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are taken to profit or loss and are not subsequently reversed
if the related asset subsequently increases in value.
Capitalised development costs
Research costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Capitalised development costs represent the up-front
costs of developing new products or enhancing existing products to meet customer needs. Development costs are capitalised
when it is probable that the project will be a success considering its commercial and technical feasibility; the Group is able to
use or sell the asset; the Group has sufficient resources and intent to complete the development; and its costs can be
measured reliably.
Capitalised development costs are amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of their expected benefit, being their
estimated finite useful life of four to five years.
Software systems
Software systems acquired in a business combination are amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of their expected
benefit, being their estimated finite useful life of four to five years.
Customer relationships
Customer relationships acquired in a business combination are amortised on a straight-line basis over the period of their
expected benefit, being their estimated finite useful life of three to nine years.
Brand names
Brand names acquired in a business combination are capitalised as an asset. The brand is recognised as having an infinite
useful life when there is no foreseeable limit to the period over which the brand is expected to generate cash flows. Brand
names are carried at cost less accumulated impairment.
Accounting policy for impairment of non-financial assets
Goodwill and other intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually
for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Other non-
financial assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount exceeds its
recoverable amount.
Recoverable amount is the higher of (a) an asset's fair value less costs of disposal; and (b) value-in-use. Assets that do not
have independent cash flows are grouped together to form a CGU.

Accounting policy for trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective
interest method, which is inclusive of any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for
settlement within 30 to 60 days.
The Group adopts a lifetime expected loss approach to estimate credit losses. To measure the expected credit losses, trade
receivables have been grouped based on days outstanding.
Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
The allowance for expected credit losses requires a degree of estimation and judgement. The allowance for expected credit
losses is calculated by applying expected credit loss rates to each aged receivables category incorporating manual
adjustments where necessary. The expected credit loss rates are determined with reference to recent sales experience,
historical collection rates and forward looking information available at the time of preparation. Actual credit losses in future
years may be higher or lower than the provided allowance.

Accounting policy for right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which
comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the
commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in the
cost of inventories, an estimate of costs expected to be incurred for dismantling and removing the underlying asset, and
restoring the site or asset.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life
of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the Group expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the
lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or adjusted for any
remeasurement of lease liabilities.
The Group has elected not to recognise a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability for short-term leases with terms
of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to profit or loss as
incurred.

Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions - Lease term
The lease term is a significant component in the measurement of both the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Judgement is
exercised in determining whether there is reasonable certainty that an option to extend the lease or purchase the underlying
asset will be exercised, or an option to terminate the lease will not be exercised, when ascertaining the periods to be included
in the lease term. In determining the lease term, all facts and circumstances that create an economical incentive to exercise
an extension option, or not to exercise a termination option, are considered at the lease commencement date. Factors
considered may include the importance of the asset to the Group's operations; comparison of terms and conditions to
prevailing market rates; incurrence of significant penalties; existence of significant leasehold improvements; and the costs and
disruption to replace the asset. The Group reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, or not
exercise a termination option, if there is a significant event or significant change in circumstances.
Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions - Incremental borrowing rate
Where the interest rate implicit in a lease cannot be readily determined, an incremental borrowing rate is estimated to discount
future lease payments to measure the present value of the lease liability at the lease commencement date. Such a rate is
based on what the Group estimates it would have to pay a third party to borrow the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a
similar value to the right-of-use asset, with similar terms, security and economic environment.
Accounting policy for lease liabilities
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present
value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or,
if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments comprise of fixed payments
less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, amounts expected to be paid
under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise of the option is reasonably certain to
occur, and any anticipated termination penalties.

Note 10. Leases (continued)
The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.
Variable lease payments include rent concessions in the form of rent forgiveness.
Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured if
there is a change in the following: future lease payments arising from a change in an index or a rate used; residual guarantee;
lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an adjustment is
made to the corresponding right-of use asset, or to profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset is fully written
down.

Note 13. Employee benefits (continued)
Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service.
Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the reporting date on high quality corporate bonds with terms
to maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows.
Earnout accrual
Arrangements for contingent payments to selling shareholders in a business combination are recognised as remuneration for
post-combination services where the employment of the selling shareholder is a condition precedent for the earn-out to be
earned. A liability is raised on a monthly basis for the expected contingent payments that will occur at the end of an earnout
period. They are accrued equally over the term, if the payments are forfeited on termination of employment of the selling
shareholders, the liability is released to the profit and loss.
Liabilities for remuneration benefits expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the
amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. Liabilities for remuneration benefits not expected to be settled
within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect
of services provided by employees up to the reporting date.

Note 14. Equity - issued share capital (continued)
Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in dividends and the proceeds on the winding up of the Company in proportion
to the number of shares held, taking into account amounts paid on those shares. The fully paid ordinary shares have no par
value and the Company does not have a limited amount of authorised capital. Each member represented at a general meeting,
whether in person or by proxy, shall have one vote on a show of hands. Each share carries one vote upon a poll.
Treasury shares held in trust
Treasury shares are ordinary shares of the Company purchased on market by the trustee of the Infomedia Employee Share
Scheme Trust. The treasury shares are held on trust for the purpose of meeting future obligations in connection with the
Company's long term employee incentive scheme. Trust shares are allocated or transferred to recipients upon vesting and
exercise of long-term incentives. Further details about the Company's long term incentives are set out in note 19 to these
financial statements.
Capital risk management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can
continue its listing on the Australian Securities Exchange, provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return
capital to shareholders, issue new shares and take on borrowings.
The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 2023 Annual Report.
Accounting policy for issued capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.
Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax,
from the proceeds.
Note 15. Financial instruments
Financial risk management objectives
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency risk and interest rate risk),
credit risk and liquidity risk.
Risk management is carried out by senior finance executives ('finance') under policies approved by the Board of Directors
('the Board'). These policies include the identification and analysis of both the risk exposure of the Group as well as the
appropriate procedures, controls and risk limits. Finance identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks where appropriate.
Finance reports to the Board on a regular basis.
The Group uses various methods to measure different risk types, including sensitivity analysis for foreign currency risk and
aging analysis for credit risk.
Market risk
Foreign currency risk
The Group operates and trades in three major economic currency regions (Asia Pacific; Europe, Middle East and Africa; and
Americas, including North America and Latin and South Americas); and as a result, exposures to exchange rate fluctuations
arise. These exposures mainly arise from the subscriptions for the Group’s products and to a lesser extent the associated
costs relating to these products. As the Group’s product offerings are typically made on a recurring monthly subscription basis,
there is a relatively high degree of reliability in estimating a proportion of future net cash flow exposures.

Note 15. Financial instruments (continued)
In addition to the transactional sale of products, the Group’s investment in both its European and United States subsidiaries,
the Group’s statement of financial position can be affected by movements in both the Euro ('EUR') and United States dollar
('USD') against the Australian dollar ('AUD'), with a corresponding impact to the foreign currency reserve in equity.
The carrying value of material foreign currency denominated cash and cash equivalents are as follows:
2024
$'000
United States Dollars (USD)
22,340
10,548
European Union Euros (EUR)
3,091
2,063
British Pounds (GBP)
516
462
25,947
13,073
The Group had cash denominated in foreign currencies of $25.947 million as at 30 June 2024 (2023: $13.073 million). Based
on this exposure, had the Australian dollar weakened or strengthened by 10% against these foreign currencies with all other
variables held constant, the impact to the Group's profit after tax for the year would have been as follows:
2024
$'000
Australian dollar weakened by 10%
1,320
541
Australian dollar strengthened by 10%
(1,320)
(541)
The percentage change is the expected overall volatility of the significant currencies, based on management's assessment of
reasonable possible fluctuations. The actual net foreign exchange gain for the year ended 30 June 2024 was $0.420 million
(2023: loss of $0.752 million).
Interest rate risk
The Group is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.

Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date to recognised financial assets is the carrying amount, net of any
provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position and notes to the financial
statements.
Credit risk of the Group mainly arises from cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
30 June 2024
Note 15. Financial instruments (continued)
The cash and cash equivalents are placed with major banks in those countries where the Group operates and therefore the
credit risk is minimal.
The Group’s trade receivables credit risk is spread broadly across automotive manufacturers, distributors and dealerships.
Receivable balances are continually monitored with the result that the Group's exposure to bad debts is not significant. As the
products typically have a monthly life cycle with relatively low subscription prices, the concentration of credit risk is relatively
low with the exception of automotive manufacturers.
Since the Group trades only with recognised third parties, collateral is not requested nor is it the Group’s policy to securitise
its trade and other receivables. The aging analysis as disclosed in note 7 shows that majority of the Group’s trade receivables
are within the normal credit term and the receivables impairment loss is not material.
The Group has adopted a lifetime expected loss allowance in estimating expected credit losses to trade receivables through
the use of the provisions matrix for credit loss provisioning. These provisions are considered representative across all
customers of the Group based on recent sales experience, historical collection rates and forward-looking information that is
available.
Generally, trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators of this include the
failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan and a failure to make contractual payments for a period greater than 1 year
even with active debt collection activities.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk of not being able to meet payment obligations as and when they are due and payable. The Group’s
exposure to liquidity risk is minimal given the relative strength of the statement of financial position and cash flows from
operations. Given the nature of the Group’s operations and no borrowings, the Group does not have fixed or contractual
payments at the reporting date other than leases and earnout consideration.
The contractual maturity of the Group’s financial liabilities are as stated in the statement of financial position and are less than
60 days.
The Group’s financial instruments exposed to interest rate and liquidity risk are:
●
cash and cash equivalents, minimal exposure to interest rate risk;
●
lease liabilities are interest bearing, there is no exposure to interest rate risk on the basis that the interest rate is fixed
and the remaining contractual maturities of leases including principal and interest payments are:

Note 19. Share-based remuneration
The Group provides eligible employees (including key management personnel but excluding non-executive directors) with
long-term incentives (LTIs) in the form of share-based payments. LTIs are an integral part of the Group's remuneration policy.
The ultimate objective of share-based remuneration is to incentivise and align executives with delivery of long-term
shareholder value.
Performance based LTIs align participants to the longer-term strategies, goals and objectives of the Group, and provide
greater incentive for senior employees to have broader involvement and participation in the Group beyond their immediate
roles.
Retention based LTIs help the Group to attract and retain skilled and experienced senior employees.
Obligations under share-based payment arrangements are settled by either issuing new ordinary shares in the Company or
acquiring ordinary shares of the Company on market. Alternatively, the Board retains discretion to settle LTIs in cash in
appropriate circumstances. LTIs are governed by the terms of the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan ('the Plan').
Trading in the Company’s shares is governed by the Company’s Securities Trading Policy. The policy restricts employees
from trading in the Company’s shares when they are in a position to be aware, or are aware, of price sensitive information.
Designated employees are restricted from trading shares outside defined trading windows without prior Board approval.
The Remuneration, People and Culture Committee recommends to the Board to approve each employee's participation in the
Plan. All LTIs are issued by the Company.
The following LTIs are currently on issue:

19(b). Share Appreciation Rights (SARs)
19(c). Equity Bonus Plan Rights (EBPRs) and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs)
19(a). Performance Rights (PRs)
General terms of PRs currently on issue:
●
The Board approves the issue of PRs to eligible employees subject to the Plan rules.
●
PRs are granted for nil consideration and no strike price is payable upon exercise.
●
PR vesting conditions are not market related and are conditional on meeting the performance hurdles described below.
●
PRs automatically lapse if vesting conditions are not met.
●
Eligible employees must remain employed at any relevant vesting and/or exercise date, subject to limited exceptions
contained in the Plan rules.
●
Vested PRs may be exercised up to a specified number of years after the grant date.
●
The Plan provides for Board discretion to adjust the performance measures for non-trading items as well as other items
affecting underlying earnings.
●
The Board determines the number of PRs to vest based on the outcome of the performance hurdles.
●
No dividend or voting rights are attached to PRs until they are exercised and converted into fully paid ordinary shares.
●
Upon exercise, each PR converts into one fully paid ordinary share of the Company.
●
The fair value of the PRs at grant date is estimated by an external party with reference to the share price in accordance
with the applicable accounting standard AASB 2 Share-Based Payments ('AASB 2').

General terms of SARs currently issued:
●
The Board approves the issue of SARs to eligible employees subject to the Plan rules.
●
SARs are granted for nil consideration and no strike price is payable upon exercise.
●
SARs are tested over a three-year performance period and vest proportionally based on the relevant vesting and
performance criteria for each grant.
●
SARs automatically lapse if vesting conditions are not met.
●
Eligible employees must remain employed at any relevant vesting date, subject to limited exceptions contained in the
Plan rules.
●
Vested SARs may be exercised up to a specified number of years after the grant date.
●
The Plan provides for Board discretion to adjust the performance measures for non-trading items as well as other items
affecting revenue and underlying earnings.
●
No dividend or voting rights are attached to SARs until they are exercised and converted into fully paid ordinary shares.
●
Upon exercise SAR holders receive fully paid ordinary shares in the Company equivalent to the growth in share price
over the ‘Reference Price’ calculated for each particular grant, multiplied by the number of vested SARs. The share
price must exceed the Reference Price at the time of exercise.
●
The fair value of the SARs at grant date is estimated by an external party with reference to the share price in accordance
with AASB 2.

CAGR, vesting is straight-line pro-rated between 25% and 100%. Upon achievement of maximum CAGR, vesting is 100%. If
CAGR is greater than 20%, then outperformance award comprises of additional shares granted at vesting equivalent to 50%
of the shares awarded on exercise of the SARs.
Calculation methodology:
Participating employees benefit from potential growth in the Company's share price between the grant and exercise dates.
Upon exercise the SARs convert to a number of shares determined by the following calculation:
(SAR End Price - Reference Price) X Number of SARs
SAR End Price
= Number of Shares Vested + Outperformance Award (where applicable)

These RSUs, representing the CEO and Managing Director's one-time sign-on bonus, were deemed granted and
reported as unissued EBPRs in the FY22 Remuneration Report subject to Shareholder approval. The RSUs were issued
on 9 March 2023.
Accounting policy for share-based payments
Share-based compensation benefits in the form of conditional rights to acquire shares in the Company are provided to some
senior employees. The cost of share-based transactions is measured at fair value on grant date. Fair value is estimated using
a pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, option term, dilution impact, share price at grant date, price volatility,
dividend yield and the risk free interest rate for the term of the option. The pricing model also includes non-vesting conditions
that do not determine whether the Group receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No other vesting
conditions are taken into account.
The cost of share-based transactions is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in equity over the vesting
period. The amount recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less
amounts already recognised in previous periods. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date
fair value of the LTIs, the best estimate of the number of LTIs that are likely to vest and the expired portion of the vesting
period. The total impact for the period arising from share-based payment transactions is included in note 4.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements
30 June 2024
Note 24. Basis of preparation and other accounting policies
Infomedia Ltd is a listed public company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in Australia. Its registered office and
principal place of business is:
Level 5, 155 Clarence Street
Sydney NSW 2000
A description of the nature of the Group's operations and its principal activities are included in the directors' report, which is
not part of the financial statements.
The financial statements were authorised for issue, in accordance with a resolution of directors, on 26 August 2024. The
directors have the power to amend and reissue the financial statements.
Basis of preparation
The accounting policies that are material to the Group are set out either in the respective notes or below. The accounting
policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year, unless otherwise stated.
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and
Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') and the Corporations Act 2001, as appropriate
for for-profit oriented entities. These financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards as
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements have been consistently applied to all the years
presented, unless otherwise stated.
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is Infomedia Ltd's functional and presentation currency.
Impact of the initial application of other new and amended Australian Accounting Standards that are effective and
applicable for the current year
In the current year, the Group has applied all amendments to Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by
the Board that are effective for an annual period that begins on or after 1 July 2023. Their adoption has not had any material
impact on the disclosures or on the amounts reported in these financial statements.
Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for, where applicable, financial
assets and liabilities at fair value through profit or loss.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Infomedia as at 30 June 2024
and the results of all subsidiaries for the year then ended.
Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed
to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its
power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to
the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
Rounding of amounts
The Company is of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191,
issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, relating to 'rounding-off'. Amounts in this report have been
rounded off in accordance with that Corporations Instrument to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest
dollar.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 24. Basis of preparation and other accounting policies (continued)
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and
which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial
year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not discounted. The
amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.
An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the Group's
normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the
reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for
at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.
A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the Group's normal operating cycle; it is held
primarily for the purpose of trading; it is due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period; or there is no unconditional
right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities are classified as
non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.
Financial assets at amortised cost
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost only if both of the following conditions are met: (i) it is held within a business
model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and (ii) the contractual terms of the financial
asset represent contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.
Impairment of financial assets
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets which are either measured at amortised
cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance depends upon the Group's
assessment at the end of each reporting period as to whether the financial instrument's credit risk has increased significantly
since initial recognition, based on reasonable and supportable information that is available, without undue cost or effort to
obtain.
Where there has not been a significant increase in exposure to credit risk since initial recognition, a 12-month expected credit
loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset's lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable to a
default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where it is
determined that credit risk has increased significantly, the loss allowance is based on the asset's lifetime expected credit
losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present value of
anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate.
The loss allowance reduces the asset's carrying value with a corresponding expense through profit or loss.
Reserves
Share-based payments reserve
The reserve is used to recognise the value of equity benefits provided to employees as part of their remuneration.

Note 24. Basis of preparation and other accounting policies (continued)
Foreign currency translation
Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the
transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation
at financial year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in
profit or loss.
The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rates at the reporting
date. The revenue and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using monthly average exchange
rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange differences
are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity.
The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of.
New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the Group has not applied the following new and revised Australian
Accounting Standards and Interpretations that have been issued but are not yet effective and may have an impact on the
Group:
AASB 18
Presentation and disclosure of financial statements
AASB 2020-1 Amendments to
Australian Accounting Standards
Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current
AASB 2022-6 Amendments to
Australian Accounting Standards
Non-current Liabilities with Covenants
AASB 2022-5 Amendments to

AASB 2023-1 Amendments to
Australian Accounting Standards
Supplier Finance Arrangements
AASB 2023-5 Amendments to
Australian Accounting Standards

statements of the Group in future periods.
