"It is great to have Steve Picton join our Board as a Non-Executive Director of Flexiroam. Steve

is a highly experienced and seasoned executive with over 35 years' of technology and

telecommunications leadership experience, and I look forward to his valued contributions as we rapidly scale. I would also like to recognise the contributions of David Ong, our largest individual shareholder, who stepped down from his role as Non-Executive Director, to pursue other interests. On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank David for his many years of service."

"We are successfully executing on our growth plans and I am very excited about the opportunities

ahead of us. We expect our Solutions revenue to scale up over upcoming quarters as we continue to roll out existing deals and execute on our pipeline of opportunities. While our Product and Engineering Teams committed to ongoing improvement and development of new solutions that can be rolled out globally, our Sales Team is engaged with multiple opportunities, positioning us

well to continue to grow throughout the remainder of FY23."
