(TSXV: BNXA) (OTCQX: BNXAF) (FSE: AC00) ("Banxa'' or the "Company") is pleased to report its Audited FY24 financial results, showcasing impressive growth and momentum. This press release augments the release of the unaudited FY24 financial results on September 5, 2024.

AUDITED FY24 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

(Figures are in AUD and all comparisons are relative to the twelve-month period ended June 30th, 2023, unless otherwise stated)

• 48% increase in TTV to $957 million (USD $649 million), up from $646 million (USD $438 million), driven by product innovation, organic growth with partners and addition of new partners, such as Trust Wallet
• 67% increase in Gross Profit to $28.8 million (USD $19.5 million), up from $17.2 million (USD $11.7 million), due to growth in TTV and Net Take Rate
  • 74% increase in core operations' Gross Profit, excludes integration revenue*, to $27.5 million (USD $18.7 million), up from $15.8 million (USD $10.7 million)
• Increase in NTR to 2.9%, up from 2.4%, due to improved efficiency in processing transactions and enhanced pricing
• Increase in Adjusted EBITDA to ($1.1 million) (USD ($0.7 million)), up from ($13.4 million) (USD ($8.9 million)), due to improved TTV and NTR, reduced operating expenses, specifically staffing, legal & compliance costs and cost of capital. Adjusted EBITDA was below the guidance driven by several factors, a softer market in the June quarter, loss of volume due to a technical issue with a partner (TTV impact of $5 million) and increased operating expenses associated with chargebacks flowing over from the March quarter
  • Increase in core operations' Adjusted EBITDA, excludes integration revenue*, to ($2.3 million) (USD ($1.5 million)), up from ($14.8 million) (USD ($9.8 million))
• Net loss per share on a basic and diluted basis to ($0.09) (USD ($0.06)), compared to ($0.21) (USD ($0.14))
• Cash, Trade Receivables** and Crypto Inventories at $11.5 million (USD $7.6 million), down from $14.7 million (USD $9.8 million) as of March 31st, 2023 due to expunging of high cost short term facilities, replaced with lower cost revolving short term facilities
