1. Cash position as at 7 July 2020 2. Level 3 required all workers to remain at home where possible, with certain businesses (including pharmacies) allowed to operate under strict guidelines and was in effect from 27 April 2020 to 13 May 20203. Level 4 severely limited travel, with only essential businesses (including pharmacies) allowed to operate under strict guidelines, and was in effect from 25 March 2020 to 27 April 20204. In response to COVID-19 the New Zealand Government provided significantly impacted businesses with $7,000 per full time employee for a 12 week period

Financial information and outlook

12

Financial information and outlook

• Me Today delivered gross revenue of $639k and net revenue of $566k in the 5 months post the Me Today brand launch in November2019 and full year of The Good Brand Company

• The Me Today brand currently generates a gross margin in excess of 50% across both its supplement and skin care ranges

• Me Today currently has a net cash position of $3.4m1 with no debt. If the equity raise is fully subscribed (but before oversubscriptions), it is expected to have a cash position of ~$6.45m, which will enable investment in the business and accelerate Me Today’s growth

• Target run rate gross revenue by the end of FY21 in excess of $2.0m, and growth in store presence from ~200 to ~280

• Further benefits of increased brand investment and marketing from the capital raise will be realised in FY22 and beyond

COVID-19

• Whilst pharmacies remained open during COVID-19 alert levels 32 and 43, their priority was the supply of over the counter prescriptions, which paired with restrictive safety precautions made for a challenging operating environment in this channel

• In response, management took steps to preserve cash including applying for the wage subsidy4, removing directors fees and salary increases for 2 months, and delaying the hiring of new staff

• Management believe as a result of COVID-19 the delivery of Me Today’s roll-out plan for New Zealand has been delayed ~2 months, while the entry into international markets could be impacted until restrictions have been lifted

• As restrictions have eased domestically, the prioritisation of health and wellbeing amongst consumers has presented a strong opportunity for Me Today to drive growth

Key risks

Page 19: Equity Raising Presentation 8 July 2020 · IRI AU Pharmacy Data MAT 17/11/19 9. Strategy –Me Today 10 Strategy Key initiatives Branding & marketing • Focus on building brand awareness

Key risksDependence on key personnel

The Me Today Group’s operations are heavily reliant on certain key personnel, in particular Grant Baker, Stephen Sinclair, and Michael Kerr. If any of those key personnel were to leave the Me Today Group, its operations and financial performance could be adversely affected.

Marketing and brand cut through

The Me Today Group needs to be able to identify and react to new trends in the health and wellness products industry, and to achieve successful brand cut through against its competitors. There are a number of established competitors in the supplements and skin care categories, and if Me Today cannot successfully ‘stand out’, its financial performance may be adversely affected.

CompetitionThe health and wellness sectors, both in New Zealand and internationally, are highly competitive. One or more of the Me Today Group’s competitors could offer comparableproducts at lower prices, which might cause downward pressure on the Me Today Group’s pricing and ability to create margin and revenue. One or more competitors could also offer comparable products which are preferred by consumers, leading to reduced demand for the Me Today Group’s products.

Management of growth opportunities

As the Me Today Group quickly expands, it may not successfully manage its expected rapid growth, which could lead to adverse operational and financial performance.

Trade marks and intellectual property

If the Me Today Group is unable to obtain and enforce trade mark and intellectual property rights for its brands, the value of those brands, and by extension the financial performance of the Me Today Group, may be adversely affected. Applications for trade marks may be made by other parties directed to intellectual property relevant to the sector in which the Me Today Group operates. There can be no assurance that third parties will not independently develop similar alternative intellectual property to the Me Today Group’s. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on the Me Today Group’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Offshore marketsExpansion into overseas markets is difficult, and there is a risk that Me Today Group will fail to successfully execute its strategy in overseas markets, or that its products will not resonate with consumers in foreign markets. Expansion into overseas markets introduces exposure to currency risks, different regulatory frameworks, business landscapes and competition.

Early stage companyBoth The Good Brand Company and Me Today NZ are early stage companies with limited trading history and no assurance of future revenue growth or profitability. Investment in early stage companies is high risk. There is no guarantee of any return, and any such returns may take years to materialise. Many early stage companies fail.

Regulatory riskAs a large part of the Me Today Group’s business comprises the sale of health and wellness products, it is possible that the sale, marketing and production of such products may be subject to new regulations.

Third party dependency The Me Today Group relies on third parties for the manufacture, packaging and distribution of Me Today branded products.

COVID -19A second outbreak of COVID-19 in New Zealand, and potential response measures put in place by the government could adversely affect Me Today’s operational and financial performance, while continued outbreaks in key international markets could adversely affect entry into those markets.
