Bid Corp Ltd Ord

Good morning everyone. Welcome to BitCorp's annual results presentation. We're very pleased to report another year of positive growth in a very volatile and difficult macro environment. Our results continue to be enabled by our entrepreneurial culture and district centralised structure, enabling leadership to react quickly to volatile and changing conditions. Bernard and Dave will unpack results when I hand over to them. But before I do, I'd like to thank a few people. Firstly, our founder, Brown Joffrey, who continues to provide wisdom and support. To our senior independent director, Nigel Payne. To the head of our Audit and Risk Committee, Helen Wiseman. The chair of our Social Ethics and Governance Committee, Tasneem Abdul-Samad. And our other non-execs, Paul Bolloy, Cliff Rosenberg, and Kanilwe Maloka, who are always available and work very hard whenever they need it. We also welcome Trevor Brown and Cathy Austin as new board members, who I'm sure will play a significant role in governance and guidance going forward. Finally, a special thanks to Bernard, David, the head office teams Ashley and Lee, and the leadership and people around the world whose dedication and commitment enable BitCorp to deliver a positive growth story year in, year out. I will now hand you over to Bernard and Dave to take you through the results. Thank you.

Thank you very much Stephen. Good morning, good afternoon, good evening everybody. It's a privilege to be talking to you again and going through our results for the year just ended. In addition to the thanks that Stephen has given and thank you to Stephen for your continued guidance, support and wisdom and inspiration in enabling us to do what we do. I want to extend my thanks first and foremost to our 31,000 team members around the world We operate in 31 countries We really do have an amazing team of people, an amazing management team who lead us in these countries and enable us to achieve the results we do. We're in the fortunate position that we get to talk about it and seemingly take the credit but it really is their hard work, dedication and more importantly ability that brings us to where we are and allows us to talk about what we're doing. So I will move around the shop a little bit here, as is my style, try to give you a feel for what happened in the year, but I think more importantly I'd like to spend more time at the end talking about the future. What's past is past, and I think what's more important and certainly more exciting is what the road ahead looks.

So once again, overall, I think this was a very successful year.
