Operating and financial review<br />
In its maiden financial results as a listed company, Kelly Partners Group Holdings has recorded a consolidated<br />
statutory net profit after providing for income tax of $1,085,446 (30 June 2016: $4,301,117). The statutory net loss after tax<br />
attributable to members of the parent entity was ($2,789,526) (30 June 2016: profit $2,007,396). This result has been<br />
impacted by several non-recurring items as identified in the Prospectus attributable to the Initial Public Offering in<br />
June <strong>2017</strong> as well as business acquisition and restructuring costs. Underlying EBITDA is a key measurement used by<br />
management and the board to assess and review business performance and accordingly the following table provides a<br />
reconciliation between statutory net profit and underlying EBITDA as well as underlying EBITDA per the Prospectus.<br />
Revenue for the year totalled $30.2 million which was up 43% from $21.1 million in 2016. Underlying EBITDA was up 67%<br />
for the Consolidated entity.<br />
