icetana’s Largest Customer Extends Contract and Receives First South America Order

icetana’s Largest Customer Extends Contract and Receives First South America Order

icetana Limited (ASX: ICE “icetana” or “the Company”) advises that a purchase order has been received following negotiations for a new Software Maintenance Agreement with Majid al Futtaim Properties (LLC) (“MAF”).

Highlights:

  • icetana has received a purchase order for its largest Middle East shopping mall contract.
  • The existing service contract which expires this month has been renewed at US$350,000 per annum in recurring license fees.
  • icetana has also received it’s first order from a South American client with NEC Argentina

The renewal covers the 12 months from April 2022 to March 2023 with a license fee of US$350,000 (A$465,000) for existing cameras already installed and being actively used by MAF at over 16 shopping centres throughout the Middle East.

MAF has been a strong referring customer of icetana since 2016 and icetana’s motion intelligence system provides enhanced security whilst saving money on guards as an integrated part of MAF’s mall operations.

icetana looks forward to a continued positive relationship with MAF as COVID conditions improve and shopping mall operations return to full capacity.

As part of our expanded sales strategy into new markets, icetana has also received an order from NEC Argentina which is the company’s first revenue from the South American market. This follows the previously announced (8 December 2021) signing of a development collaboration Memorandum of Understanding.

Development of icetana’s next generation motion intelligence product has accelerated over the past three months and four trial customers have been secured for the beta release during April 2022.

Material terms of commercial arrangements:

For MAF:

The contractual arrangement disclosed in this announcement is directly between ICETANA SYSTEMS SOFTWARE TRADING L.L.C a Dubai-based subsidiary of icetana and the end-user Majid al Futtaim Properties (LLC) (“MAF”) and is an Addendum to a pre-existing Software Maintenance Agreement (“SMA”) first signed in June 2019.

MAF is subject to the End User Licence Agreement as published on the icetana website.

The payment terms for this contract from MAF to icetana are 30 days for the annual lump sum. MAF has been a client of icetana since 2016 with a positive payment history.

The agreement has renewed for a one year term and will again be subject to a renewal or extension in March 2023. It is therefore possible that no revenue over and above the value disclosed from this annual renewal materialises from MAF pursuant to this commercial arrangement going forward. Either party may terminate the contract on 30 days of notice.

For NEC Argentina:

The contractual arrangement disclosed in this announcement is directly between icetana and NEC Argentina rather than the end user and is valued at US$15,000 over three years. NEC Argentina and the end user is subject to the End User Licence Agreement as published on the icetana website.

The payment terms from NEC Argentina to icetana are 30 days from receipt of purchase order. NEC Argentina is part of the global NEC group and debt risk is very low.

The order provides for a three year development term and will be subject to a renewal or extension in January 2025. It is therefore possible that no revenue over and above the initial order value materialises from NEC Argentina pursuant to this commercial arrangement going forward. There is no termination clause with this order.

How to Invest in Technology (Updated 2024)

The evolution of technology has undoubtedly grabbed the interest of the general public and investors alike as innovation in diverse categories continues to move forward at a remarkable speed.

Overall, the technology sector has come a long way in the last two decades. In March 2000, the S&P 500's (INDEXSP:.INX) technology index hit its peak of 988.49 points, rising by almost 500 points in the five years leading up to the dotcom bubble. Similarly, the NASDAQ reached an all-time high of 5,000 points during this milestone period.

As of March 2024, the S&P 500's technology index had grown by more than 500 percent, while the NASDAQ had more than tripled. The tech market is now dominated by large players, with companies like Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META), Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) creating vast monopolies.

5 Biggest ASX Technology ETFs in 2024

It's indisputable that we're in an era of technology and our technological capabilities are exponentially increasing.

If you aren't reading this on a personal computer or laptop — unthinkable in 1970 — you're probably using a smartphone, and phones that can access the internet have only been around since 1996. For a further example, Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) meteoric rise is just as well known and needs no elaboration. The fact of the matter is that technology is integral to our life and advancements in the industry are shaping the future.

For any investor, the tech sector may be a desirable investment opportunity, and ETFs can be a safer way to get into an industry. For those unfamiliar, an ETF, or exchange-traded fund, is a basket of securities that is traded like a stock on an exchange and comes in many different types — market ETFs, foreign market ETFs, commodity ETFs and so on. Advantages include lower expense ratios, diversification and fewer broker commissions. One disadvantage is a low level of liquidity.

Top 5 ASX Technology Stocks

Australia is home to a thriving tech sector with investment opportunities across a variety of subsectors.

The tech sector contributed about AU$167 billion to the Australian economy in the 2020/2021 period, an increase of 79 percent from 2016. That represents a growth rate that is more than four times that of most industries — in fact, the tech arena is the third largest economic market in Australia, behind only mining and finance/insurance. Its growth is expected to continue over the coming years, according to Global Australia, with a projected contribution of AU$250 billion by 2030.

Unsurprisingly, many tech stocks on the ASX have performed well in this landscape. Below the Investing News Network profiles the five top ASX technology stocks by year-on-year share price performance. Data was gathered on January 9, 2024, using TradingView’s stock screener, and all companies listed had market caps above AU$10 million at that time.
