    For personal use only Year In Review SCA’s results in FY2020 highlight its significantly improved balance sheet and strong cash flow, along with continuing or growing demand for SCA’s core audio products. Despite the severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on SCA and broadcast media more broadly, there has been progressive improvement in revenues since May 2020. Excluding AASB 16 (Leases) FY2020 FY2020 Comparison to FY20191 Revenue $540.2M $540.2M $661.0M (18.2%) Expenses ($432.6M) ($447.8M) ($513.6) (12.8%) EBITDA $108.2M $93.0M $147.4M (36.9%) NPAT $25.1M $29.7M ($91.4M) N.m. Underlying NPAT - $35.8M $73.9M (51.6%) Net Debt $131.6M $131.6M $292.6M (55.0%) 1 Underlying amounts in FY2019 exclude the impact of one-off restructuring charges of $3.3 million and non-cash significant items, comprising the impairment of $158.9 million N.m.

Despite the challenges presented by weak advertising markets and the COVID-19 pandemic, SCA traded profitably in all four quarters of the year. This was the result of disciplined cost control, as well as a prompt and effective response to maintain operations with the majority of our people working safely from home. The Company also appreciated support received during the year from shareholders, lenders, and Government and regulatory agencies. Consumption of SCA products, particularly digital audio, has grown during the pandemic.
