Suppliers

The total number of suppliers contracted to the platform is now 70. Since September AIM have added a further 87 suppliers to their preferred supplier list which now totals 280 suppliers, thus reflecting the attractiveness in gaining increased exposure to the AIM membership.

We are accelerating our supplier engagement activity to address this expansion in the AIM preferred supplier list and expect transaction fee penetration of sales orders to continue to increase as the number of contracted suppliers increases.

 

Gross Transactional Revenue

The current blended 12-week average transaction fee rate for our AIM member control cohort is 2.4% of sales order value (sourced through contracted suppliers), which is in line with management expectations of 2.3% at this stage of our monetization.

Penetration of total sales orders by the currently contracted suppliers to the platform is approximately 33% for the control cohort, again in line with management expectations. We expect transaction fee penetration of sales orders will increase as the contracting of suppliers continues to rollout.

 

Current Trading

 

Current trading is in line with management expectations and on target to be broadly in line with market forecasts for the year ended 31 December 2018.

 

 

Nichole Stella, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"As we approach the end of 2018 and begin preparations for the new year, I am enthusiastic about the traction that is building in both users on the platform and in transactional throughput and fee revenue across the AIMPro platform. We look forward to the future with the confidence as we continue to build on the momentum within the AiM member base."
