On a comparable basis, NPAT (continuing operations) was down 153% at a $ 7.4 million loss. The company attributed this decline to a non-cash impairment charge ($ 15.7 million), owing to the purchase of intangible assets of Click Energy. The charge was recognised in H1 FY19.

Amaysim Australia is well placed for growth after the successful completion of capital raising program. Some of the other factors that are supporting the company’s position are the renewed network supply agreement (NSA) with Optus, in addition to highly lucrative new mobile plans launched by the company in June 2019 and the soft launch of new disruptive subscription energy plans from April 2019 (Victoria).

Going forth, the company expects to report an underlying EBITDA of $ 33 million - $ 39 million for the financial year 2020.
