I am delighted to include SocietyOne in our results from the acquisition on the 15th March 22, and look forward to a full quarter of revenue and originations being included in the results for our 4Q22. We have already made great progress with the integration of SocietyOne and are on track to realise the enormous synergy benefits.”
SocietyOne Acquisition Driving Immediate and Long-Term Growth
The acquisition of SocietyOne increased the Group’s Gross Receivables at the end of 3Q22 by
$356m on a statutory basis and by $452m on a proforma basis (that includes loans under SocietyOne’s managed peer to peer program).
The key benefits of the acquisition include boosting revenue, customer and profit growth;
- Material cost synergy opportunities: $17m p.a. (pre-tax) from FY24 by removing duplicate functions, systems, premises, processes and lowering funding
- Revenue opportunities from SocietyOne customer base: $15m p.a. (pre-tax) revenue synergies from FY24 by marketing MONEYME’s diverse product suite to SocietyOne’s unique customer
- Unlocking new distribution opportunities: Leverage the Credit Score product with
~158k customers (a low-cost channel), expand the broker sales channel and the Banking-as-a-Service partnership opportunity with Westpac.
The post-acquisition integration (‘Project Fusion’), is progressing well with several important milestones achieved in 3Q22:
- Acquisition successfully completed according to plan on the 15th March 2022
- New Executive Team appointed and announced
- The 1st of 2 stages of the people and premises cost reduction plan is
The 4Q focus for Project Fusion is to:
- Initiate cross-selling to leverage the Credit Score customer base
- Initiate the implementation of the technology integration onto Horizon
- Execute the 2nd stage of the people cost reduction
