existing customers

Key risks

18

Covid-19

Events related to COVID-19 have resulted in significant market falls and volatility. There is continued uncertainty as to the government response and the likelihood of an Australian economic recession of uncertain duration and severity. If the operations of customers of 5GN are interrupted or suspended for a prolonged period as a result of any such events, there may be a material adverse impact on the operating and financial performance and prospects of 5GN.

There are also other changes in the domestic and global macroeconomic environment associated with events relating to COVID-19 that are beyond the control of 5GN and may be exacerbated in an economic recession or downturn. These include, but are not limited to:

changes in inflation, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates;

changes in employment level and labour costs;

changes in aggregate investment and economic output; and

other changes in economic condition which may affect the revenue or costs of 5GN.

Transaction risks

There can be no guarantee that an acquisition of WCG will occur. Discussions between 5GN and the WCG Board have not as yet resulted in any consensus. Any acquisition by 5GN of an interest in WCG will occur, if at all, only on terms and conditions acceptable to 5GN.

Reduction or change in demand for ICT Services

The market for data networks services, data centre services, cloud services and managed services (collectively ICT Services) is characterised by rapidly changing technology, frequent new product and competitor introductions, changing laws (for example – data and privacy) as well as changing customer demands, and any reduction in demand for ICT Services or changes in the nature of the demand for ICT Services may impact 5GN significantly.

Financing Risk

5GN may, in the future, require additional debt or equity capital in order to fund growth strategies and / or to refinance its existing debt obligations. There is a risk that 5GN may be unable to access additional debt or equity funding on favourable terms, or at all.

Any drawdown under 5G’s existing debt facility will require 5GN to comply with financial covenants under the facility, being gearing, leverage and interest cover ratios which are tested by reference to quarterly results. There is a risk that 5GN will not be able to draw on the facility if it is unable to meet the financial covenant requirements. If 5GN did draw on the facility and were to breach any of these covenants, the lender could cancel the facility and declare all outstanding amounts immediately due and payable. If that action were to be taken, there is no certainly that 5GN would have access to sufficient cash to meet its repayment obligations or be able to refinance the existing debt on commercially acceptable terms. In those circumstances, 5GN would need to seek waivers or other forms of accommodation. Alternatively, 5GN would need to procure alternative financing arrangements to refinance the debt obligations.

Reliance on Key Management Personnel

5GN depends on the talent and experience of its staff and employees. It is essential that appropriately skilled staff be available in sufficient numbers to support 5GN’s business. While 5GN has initiatives in place to mitigate the risk of its key staff leaving, the loss of such staff may have a negative impact on 5GN.

Infrastructure and Technology Failure

5GN relies on its infrastructure and technology to provide its customers with a highly reliable service. There may be a failure to deliver this level of service as a result of numerous factors, including human error, power loss, improper maintenance by landlords and security breaches. Service interruptions, regardless of their cause, may cause contractual and other losses to 5GN.

Key risks

Supply and Pricing of utilities

5GN and its landlords rely on third party providers for the supply of utilities to its data centres (including electricity and water). There is no guarantee that the third party providers will be able to consistently provide sufficient levels of utilities to 5GN at acceptable costs to satisfy demand requirements.

Funding Risk

5GN has entered into an Underwriting Agreement under which the Lead Manager has agreed to fully underwrite the Placement, subject to the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement. If certain conditions are not satisfied or certain events occur, the Lead Manager may terminate the Underwriting Agreement. The ability of the Lead Manager to terminate the Underwriting Agreement in respect of some events will depend on whether the event has or is likely to have a material adverse effect on the success, marketing or settlement of the Placement, the value of the securities, or the willingness of investors to subscribe for securities, or where they may give rise to liability for the Lead Manager.

Security Risk

Security risks, including physical threats, loss of power, flooding, fire, explosion, aircraft impact, terrorism, malicious damage and external hacking and/ or the malfunction of response equipment may have sustained and adverse impacts on 5GN’s business viability through the loss of future revenues or payment of damages (not otherwise insured).

Future Acquisitions

5GN will evaluate a range of growth driven initiatives in the future, which may include new data centre sites or business acquisitions. However, it expects only to do so to the extent that such acquisitions are in accordance with its growth strategy and complement its existing portfolio. There can be no guarantee that 5GN will identify any future acquisition opportunities or be able to complete future acquisition opportunities on acceptable terms.

Although 5GN intends to undertake comprehensive due diligence before completing any future acquisition, such due diligence may not reveal issues that later impact on the returns from that acquisition or the extent to which the acquisition meets 5GN’s growth strategy.

Litigation / Disputes

5GN may in the ordinary course of business become involved in litigation, arbitration and disputes, for example with its suppliers or clients. Any such litigation, arbitration or dispute could involve significant economic costs and damage to relationships with suppliers, clients and/or other stakeholders. If 5GN is involved in any litigation, arbitration or disputes or protracted settlement negotiations in relation to that litigation, arbitration or dispute, this may disrupt 5GN's business operations, cause 5GN to incur significant legal costs, and may divert management's attention away from the daily operations of the business. Any such outcomes may have an adverse impact on 5GN's business, reputation and financial condition and financial performance.

Competition

5GN operates in a business environment which remains highly competitive. This competitive environment can be significantly affected by local market forces, such as new market entrants, and changes in economic conditions and product demand. Any increased competition from new and existing competitors can impact on 5GN's ability to generate sales, lead to a loss of market share, and cause a decline in profitability. Such changes to the competitive environment in which 5GN operates may have an adverse impact on 5GN's financial position, performance and prospects.

Counterparty risk

There is a risk that counterparties (including customers) may fail to meet their contractual obligations (particularly to the extent that the relevant counterparties are facing financial distress, including as a result of COVID-19) resulting in financial loss to 5GN and impacting on 5GN's business relationships and operations. 5GN cannot guarantee that its counterparties will fulfil these obligations or that 5GN will successfully manage counterparty credit risk. While 5GN holds insurance products to insure credit related losses with policy specifications and insured limits that 5GN considers are customarily carried for similar businesses, the failure of customers to meet their financial obligations to 5GN may adversely impact on 5GN's revenue and the financial position, performance and prospects of 5GN.

Key risks (continued)

General Risks

An investment in 5GN is also subject to general risks including those related to general economic conditions, availability of funding, refinancing requirements, foreign exchange risk, share price volatility, interest rates, debt covenants, financial distress of customers, attracting and retaining employees, health, safety and environment issues, litigation and disputes, financial forecasts, regulatory issues, changes in law, changes in accounting policy and standards, taxation implications, insurance issues, force majeure, counterparty risk, intellectual property risk and reputational risk.

Risks associated with an investment in shares

There are general risks associated with investments in equity capital such as 5GN shares. The trading price of 5GN shares may fluctuate with movements in equity capital markets in Australia and internationally. This may result in the market price for the New Shares being less or more than the Offer Price. Generally applicable factors which may affect the market price of 5GN shares include:

the impact of COVID-19 (or other pandemics or epidemics), including prolonged reduction in activity in the business’ key markets and on 5GN's workforce, industry, customers and supply chains, including as a result of governmental action, work stoppages, lockdowns, quarantines, travel restrictions and the impact on the economics and share markets of the key markets in which 5GN operates;

general movements in Australian and international stock markets;

investor sentiment;

Australian and international economic conditions and outlook;

changes in interest rates and the rate of inflation;

changes in government legislation and policies, including taxation laws;

loss of key personnel and delays in replacement;

announcement of new technologies;

epidemics or pandemics such as COVID-19;

geo political instability, including international hostilities and acts of terrorism, the response to COVID-19 and travel restrictions;

demand for and supply of 5GN shares;

announcements and results of competitors; and

analyst reports.

No assurances can be given that the New Shares will trade at or above the Offer price. None of 5GN, its directors or any other person guarantees the market performance of the New Shares.

The financial position, performance and prospects of 5GN and 5GN's share price may be adversely affected by the worsening of general economic conditions in Australia (including, the adverse impacts of, and the responses to, COVID-19), as well as international market conditions and related factors. It is also possible new risks might emerge as a result of Australian or global markets experiencing extreme stress, or existing risks may manifest themselves in ways that are not currently foreseeable.
