Commentary and outlook

IKE CEO Glenn Milnes commented, "Q3 was a continuation of the very strong first half at IKE. We have achieved significant revenue and gross margin growth and are materially ahead of all internal stretch targets.

Our fortress balance sheet remains in place, noting that the USD and AUD fx rates impact our reported NZD position. Operating leverage is evident via the scalability of our software products and our disciplined approach to operating expenses.

Macro-market tailwinds across North America remain, driven by the multi-year investment being made into building overhead fiber networks, and separately, the more than $300B investment by electric utilities forecasted into building & maintaining distribution network capacity and associated network hardening. IKE’s product drive material productivity gains to support these engineering activities.

We are executing on sizable sales opportunities and expect a healthy run rate of new contracts to close in the Q4 FY23 period and beyond.”
