“We’ve been delighted with the results achieved during the financial year being reported, which showed record revenues being achieved, and a positive adjusted EBITDA. FY22 also saw record numbers of modules being shipped and record cash being collected.
Since the year end we have announced orders for a total of 1.3 million units in India, and orders for new products in a new territory (the MENA region). We’re currently integrating with nine new meter types. In India, the new RDSS has been launched and the empanelment process is progressing, allowing more tenders to be released. Momentum in the markets in which we operate continues to grow, and we’re looking forward to continued success in the current financial year.
We’d like to thank all employees for their ongoing hard work and dedication to achieve these record results. We’d also like to thank all shareholders for their continued support and look forward to continuing to deliver successful results.”
