Just over a year ago, Motio Limited, then known as XTD, launched it’s own Digital-Place-Based media business acquiring Adline media and oOh!’s Healthcare network. Nine months later, they acquired Swift’s Health & Wellbeing network, Medical Channel Pty Ltd emerging as a frontrunner in the Healthcare sector.

CEO, Adam Cadwallader said “we have transformed the business despite the current market conditions. The team is genuinely excited about our purpose, growth and breaking new ground as we fuse together media with real, credible, and sustainable utility to benefit the Motio audiences and commercial partners. Brands want to ensure they make sense to the people that are engaging with Motio’s displays and we have spent considerable time developing quality 1st party data that underpins this with precision.”

Motio operates digital display networks and software solutions across Indoor Sports and Leisure, major Health & Wellbeing locations also has the exclusive rights to the Ampol-On-The-Go-Retail digital display networks. Motio has taken an innovative approach to its commercial property partnerships as well as providing greater flexibility to advertisers than legacy players in out-of-home. COO of Motio, Michael Johnstone said “as well as traditional agency sales we have connected to all of the major programmatic out-of-home players and established a very successful local sales approach, it’s working very well”.

As well as media, Motio has spent the past 12 months working on the customer experience aspect of its networks and now provides technology to solve solutions that have been handled by notice boards and posters on walls. Cadwallader added “sometimes this is as simple as reminding people to wach their hands or integrating elegant solutions such as advising how long people will be waiting to see their doctor. The operators of these locations want to be able to do this seamlessly and Motio is making this possible. Customers want engaging communication that is relevant to their location, culture and language. We know people are looking to our displays for information and entertainment beyond their device”

Motio Announces Half Year Results, On Track To Deliver Growth Mission By Mid-2021

Despite all the challenges of COVID in the past six months, Motio has announced a very positive start to the 20-21 financial year.

In an official release to the ASX, CEO Adam Cadwallader, announced that the company had hit an underlying EBITDA of $301,177 whilst establishing the foundations to transition and scale the business in a challenging trading period.

“(It’s a) testament to a tremendous team effort – I am quietly optimistic about the outlook for our business in the second half – we are in a strong cash position, debt free and continue to be encouraged around future possibilities,” he said.

During the half, Motio undertook a successful capital raise, which ultimately strengthened our financial position and enabled investment in our business. We are now configured for growth, and we’re ready to pursue the opportunities that are emerging as the market regains confidence.

In addition, our audiences across Motio Health, Play and Go channels are continuing to strengthen as Australia builds confidence again in the advertising and media sector.

This has enabled Motio Media to continue to grow with the investment in the team well founded. Both Local and National sales are continuing to swell and programmatic revenues continue to show promise. The Software and Payments business offers an exciting addition to our future in the Motio Play business, and whilst early, customer feedback has been positive.

We are also working with our partners to ensure our transition away from the Rail sector is successful and seamless. We’re confident and on track as a business to deliver on our growth mission and diversify the business by mid-2021.

Cadwallader also noted crucial shareholder support during the half, for helping the business build on growth.

“I really want to thank our shareholders for continuing to help Motio grow,” he said.

“I am very pleased with the shareholder value that has been realised over the past 6 months,”

Our positive performance this half would not have been possible without the strong support of our Rail partners and suppliers, our team members and the Government stimulus that allowed Motio to pursue its goals and continue to deliver on its mission. We thank all involved for your ongoing support, and hope to share more positive news in a few months time.
