My Net Zero Investment

In December, LiveTiles signed a strategic partnership and took a 19.97% minority investment for AUD$985k into My Net Zero, a leading carbon reduction and climate change platform. This partnership will enhance LiveTiles' Employee Experience solutions with the launch of a new product to market "Reach Zero" by integrating the My Net Zero Framework into the LiveTiles Reach technology. This will provide organisations and employees across the globe a platform to help tackle Scope-4 emissions. Reach Zero provides the following capabilities:

  • Gives employees an ability to build out and commit to a net-zero pledge
  • Capture aggregated data about the employees' net zero plans and choices to help manage their net-zero journey
  • Creates a communication and collaboration tool for users to receive progress dashboards, engage and receive advice from other users on how to progress their net-zero journey
  • Creates a global benefits program as a way for employees to offset their home energy usage with renewables offsets.

During the quarter My Net Zero had its first partner join and sign up to the technology and participate, Ibredola, a global energy company with approximately 34,000 employees.

On 10 December 2021, LiveTiles and My Net Zero held a launch event, in conjunction with Monash University for the new partnership, with Federal Minister, Tim Wilson, Assistant Minister to the Minister for Industry, Energy and Emissions Reduction in attendance and was quoted saying:

What I like about the My Net Zero functionality is it's focused on empowering individuals, businesses and households to take a sense of responsibility. The platform is full of excellent examples that will help consumers collectively be part of the solution. It makes it easier dealing with the challenge of; if I want to put solar panels on my roof, but actually if I look at this decision from an energy efficiency proposition, actually what I need to do is fix my insulation first.

This is where the My Net Zero technology is obviously the critical part of the solution, because it works with the slipstream of what people are trying to achieve for the future. It's also very important to empower businesses and households as a part of the conversation and take them on the journey.

Hide & Seek Partnership

During the quarter, the Company took a minority 10% stake in a Canberra based digital design and UX consulting business, Hide & Seek, for AUD$250k. The investment, along with a key sales and reseller partnership, strategically positions LiveTiles with a footprint in the Canberra market alongside Hide & Seek, who is a trusted advisor to many Government departments and agencies.

LiveTiles Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Karl Redenbach states:

"The December quarter was an extremely busy and successful one. We achieved a great top-line revenue result and the company made three strategic investments with key partners to grow and improve Employee Experience solutions on the LiveTiles platform. Our progress this quarter has been very deliberate to help us achieve our strategic goals that we outlined in at the FY21 result. The Employee Experience market is growing considerably, and we are leading the way in helping companies understand how to improve their own employee experience offering for their staff as well as providing the best employee experience platform to support the needs of users. There has never been a more important time for Employers to look after their employees as we are seeing today.

It is pleasing to report another strong quarter of financial results, with +32% growth in our 1H 2021 operating revenues (unaudited) as well as another record quarter for cash receipts, our first time collecting over $15m. We now have 2.7m contracted licences up from 2.3m at 30 June 2021 and these metrics will be our key focus going forward.
