1.        THE GROUP AND ITS OPERATIONS

IBEX Holdings Limited “the Holding Company,” was incorporated on February 28, 2017 and changed its name to IBEX Limited on September 11, 2019. IBEX Limited is hereinafter also referred to as “the Holding Company”. The registered office of the Holding Company is situated at Crawford House, 50 Cedar Avenue, Hamilton HM 11, Bermuda, which is also the principal place of business of the Holding Company. “The Group” or the “Company” refers to the Holding Company and its subsidiaries. The Holding Company is controlled by The Resource Group International Limited (“TRGI”) (the “Controlling Shareholder”), of which TRG Pakistan Limited holds a majority interest in TRGI. On August 7, 2020, the Group was admitted to trade on the Nasdaq Global Market on the same date under the ticker symbol “IBEX”. These consolidated financial statements of the Holding Company as of June 30, 2022 and 2021 and for the years ended June 30, 2022, 2021 and 2020 (hereafter the financial year) comprise the financial statements of IBEX Limited and its subsidiaries.

The Group is a leading end-to-end provider of technology-enabled customer lifecycle experience (“CLX”) solutions. Through the Group’s integrated CLX platform, a comprehensive portfolio of solutions is offered to optimize customer acquisition, engagement, expansion and experience for clients. The Group leverages sophisticated technology and proprietary analytics, in combination with its global contact and delivery center footprint and business process outsourcing expertise, to protect and enhance clients’ brands. The Group manages over 200 million interactions each year with consumers on behalf of clients through an omni-channel approach, using voice, web, chat and email.

The financial position of the Group, its cash, liquidity position and borrowing facilities are described in Note 10, Note 22.3 and Note 13, respectively, to the consolidated financial statements. In addition, Notes 22 and 24 to the consolidated financial statements include the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for managing its capital; financial risk management objectives; details of financial instruments; exposures to credit risk, market risks and liquidity risks.

Going Concern

For the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company had net income of $23.0 million, net cash generated from operating activities of $50.1 million and an accumulated deficit of $87.7 million. Current assets exceed current liabilities by $40.9 million as of June 30, 2022. Total borrowings are $15.0 million, including the line of credit of $11.2 million at June 30, 2022 (See Note 13.2). The Group has cash and cash equivalents of $48.8 million as of June 30, 2022.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern for at least a period of twelve months from the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

During fiscal year 2022, the Company incurred non-recurring expenses due to COVID-19 (the Pandemic) of $1.6 million, primarily in the form of transportation expenses. The Company believes that its liquidity and operating cash flow will be sufficient to absorb additional costs for a period of at least 12 months from date of approval of the consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 24 for more information on the Company’s capital risk management practices.

We believe that the Pandemic continues to present risks and opportunities for our business. Any weakening of the economy, including but not limited to, the Pandemic, rising global inflation, or rising interest rates, could have an impact on consumer demand for goods and services, thus impacting demand from consumer-facing businesses for customer support. On the other hand, our client base has a heavy preponderance of companies

that either provide online services, are enablers of the online economy, or are inflation resistant (such as healthcare providers), and are likely to see continued demand for their services despite these global economic uncertainties.

In August 2020, we detected a ransomware attack that briefly impacted a portion of our information technology systems. At no time did the attack impact our business operations or accounting systems, but the unauthorized access included the exfiltration of certain non-production data files from a file server in our backup data center. In conjunction with our containment activities, we launched an investigation, notified our insurance broker and carrier, and engaged an incident response team and cybersecurity forensics firm. In March 2022, a class action lawsuit was filed against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia alleging plaintiffs’ personal information was exposed as a result of the ransomware incident. In July 2022, the parties agreed to a preliminary settlement, which is subject to Court approval and will be fully covered by available insurance. Through the date of issuance of these financial statements, this incident has not had a material financial impact on our business, however we may incur losses associated with claims by third parties, as well as fines, penalties and other sanctions imposed by regulators relating to or arising from the incident, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations in future periods.

The Company’s forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, show that the Company should be able to operate within the level of its current monetary facilities and plans. Management therefore has a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue its operational existence for a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of these consolidated financial statements, and have therefore adopted the going concern basis of accounting in preparation of these consolidated financial statements.
