Impairments Have a Long Tail

Content

IMDEX Decision Science Research models geotech impairment costs as a log-normal distribution: P50 US$170m, mean US$234.9m and P90 US$500m, capped at US$1b. The mitigant (option) costs US$4m and is not 'perfect'. Takeaway: impairment risk is dominated by rare but catastrophic losses, which is what Value of Information (VoI) is designed to mitigate.

Layout Structure

A thick yellow probability-density curve on a dark chart panel, with dashed vertical markers for P50, mean and P90 and a 'max cap 1.8%' spike at 1,000. A translucent grey callout box on the right lists six key assumptions with teal US$ figures. A dark band across the bottom carries the takeaway, over an aerial landscape photo background.

What this means for IMDEX

Content

Shows how reducing orebody knowledge uncertainty pays off on an actual Canadian drilling program: a 300K oz Au resource defined with half the planned drilling, ~CA$8m in drilling cost savings against the original plan, and ~CA$76m NPV uplift from bringing production forward. The cost and NPV figures are estimates only.

conclusion

So what? Two value pools – Where does IMDEX sit?

Content

Sums up the market need: the geology has not changed, value and policy focus have moved to the orebody, and new resources are more capital-intensive. It sets out two value pools: McKinsey's US$450–750bn productivity prize, which real-time drill data integration speeds up, and a comparable pool in avoiding asymmetric downside risk through a Value of Information framework. Measuring and controlling subsurface uncertainty unlocks both, through organic R&D and acquisitions.

Outlook on the Exploration market we service today

Content

Mining exploration, where IMDEX plays today, was a US$12.4bn market in 2025, and IMDEX's role there is reducing geological uncertainty to speed up discovery and resource definition. A bar chart shows S&P exploration budgets from 2009 to 2025, peaking around US$20bn in 2012 and falling to about US$7bn in 2016, then a projected 2035 bar of about US$23bn. An arrow marks the ~6% p.a. growth, based on the 2016-2025 10-year CAGR with CY25 as the starting point.

Scarce expertise makes people more valuable

Content

Customers need experienced people to do more with the information available today. Drilling and site teams provide experienced crews, safe productive execution and practical support when conditions change. Project teams of geologists and technical specialists interpret complex information and deliver knowledge in time for the next decision. The opportunity is to make scarce expertise more productive at the point of decision.

process

Trust starts at the point of capture

Content

Good decisions depend on reliable measurements and sound interpretation, set out in four steps. /1 Get the measurement right: reliable tools, correct usage and quality checks. /2 Preserve its meaning: where, when and how it was captured. /3 Test the interpretation: experts check results against geological and operational context. /4 Know when to act: explain what the evidence supports and know what remains uncertain.

value proposition

Customer value creates the growth opportunity

Content

Demonstrated benefit gives customers reasons to adopt more technology. Drilling contractors get safer, more productive and predictable work; resource companies get a clearer understanding of the ground and better-informed project decisions. For IMDEX this means more solutions per site and a greater share of wallet.

framework diagram

A consistent framework balancing growth, resilience and shareholder returns

Content

IMDEX's capital management framework. Organic and innovation-led growth (R&D investment ~10% of revenue), operating efficiency and capital productivity generate net operating cash flow. That cash first maintains a strong balance sheet (target leverage 1.0-1.5x, with the ability to go above it for a short period for strategic M&A) and funds sustainable dividends (25% to 35% payout ratio of NPATA). Excess cash flow then goes to business investment, disciplined M&A and capital management, all to maximise shareholder value and returns.

Layout Structure

Top-down flow diagram on a dark background. Three teal rounded boxes at the top feed a pale funnel-shaped chevron labelled 'Net Operating Cash Flow', then two full-width dark navy pill bars (balance sheet, dividends), a second chevron ('Excess Cash Flow'), three dark boxes, and finally a teal double-headed arrow banner reading 'Maximise Shareholder Value and Returns'. A leverage footnote sits at the bottom left.

R&D and M&A have extended capability, customer reach and value creation

Content

Two coordinated mechanisms build the connected offering. R&D maintains technical leadership: new technologies reinforce leadership and move customers from products to solutions. M&A accelerates capabilities, customers and markets: acquired technologies and channels broaden reach from drillers to geoscientists, resource companies and new markets. Both feed the Capture / Analyse / Solve value chain.

financial summary

Consistent investment has built capability and scale

Content

R&D investment rose steadily from $33m in FY22 to $36m, $37m, $41m and $43m in FY26, at 8-10% of revenue and sustained through the cycle. Capital expenditure went $38m, $27m, $34m, $57m and $69m (FY22-FY26), at ~10-15% of revenue for capital-efficient scaling. Outlook points: innovation through the cycle, capital efficiency, and moving from building to scaling through the global network.

Strong balance sheet with earnings growth rebuilding capacity after an active M&A year

Content

Leverage moved 0.5x (FY23), 0.3x (FY24), 0.1x (FY25) and 1.3x (FY26), against a 1.0-1.5x pre-IFRS 16 target range. Five businesses were acquired in FY26, funded from cash and existing facilities, leaving FY26 leverage at 1.3x after an active M&A year. Rising EBITDA and cash generation are expected to bring leverage down; the range is a guardrail that may be exceeded for strategic M&A with a clear de-leveraging pathway.

A clear path to sustained growth

Content

Four closing messages: the industry challenge is growing, as minerals demand comes from a wider group of participants; IMDEX will continue to control its own destiny, with growth driven by execution and increasingly decoupled from the exploration cycle; larger earth-science end-markets are attractive, with the technology stack applicable and early-stage entry established; and IMDEX's competitive edge is that its people, culture and global network give its platform and technologies the number one leadership position.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this slide and the underlying presentation content.

What is the IMDEX Investor Strategy Day 2026 presentation?

It is the 95-slide deck IMDEX Limited presented to investors in Sydney on 26 October 2026 and lodged with the ASX as the "IMD Investor Strategy Day Presentation". It runs from the company's vision and Capture / Analyse / Solve strategy through an EY industry risk view, geoscience economics, customer growth strategy, case studies, market expansion, people and capital management to closing remarks.

Who presented at the IMDEX 2026 strategy day?

The agenda on slide 4 lists Paul House (introduction, Q&A and closing remarks), Paul Mitchell of EY (top risks and opportunities for mining and metals), Dave Lawie (industry update: variability as the cost of not knowing), Shaun Southwell and Michelle Carey (growth strategy by customer), Erlend Olsø (technology and customer value case study), Antonio Sardo (how IMDEX compounds commercial value), Tom Carmichael (building the industry's knowledge advantage) and Linda Lim (capital management).

What are the key financial figures in the deck?

Revenue grew from A$176m in FY17 to A$520m in FY26 (about 3.0x, ~13% CAGR) and normalised EBITDA from A$32m to A$163m (about 5.1x), lifting the margin from 18% to 31%. FY26 normalised operating cash flow was a record A$135m with 83% cash conversion, leverage was 1.3x after about A$180m was invested in five businesses, and the full-year dividend was 3.4 cents per share, fully franked. All amounts are Australian dollars.

What period does FY26 cover for IMDEX?

IMDEX reports on the Australian fiscal year, which starts in July. FY26 covers July 2025 to June 2026, so the FY26 figures in this deck relate to the year ended 30 June 2026.

Which acquisitions does the deck describe?

Slide 91 lists the FY26 deals: Earth Science Analytics (80.5%, AI-driven EarthNET platform), ALT and MSI (100%, downhole sensors and WellCAD software), Datarock (51% to 100%, AI core imagery analytics) and Krux Analytics (40% to 100%, real-time drilling analytics), together about A$51m of annualised revenue acquired.

Is this deck available as an editable PowerPoint?

No. This gallery entry provides the original PDF lodged with the ASX plus page images. The source file was too large to convert, so there is no PPTX download. You can use its structure and layouts as a reference when building your own investor day deck in 2Slides.

What design style does the IMDEX deck use?

Dark navy backgrounds with teal headings and accents, full-bleed aerial mine photography, a large vertical IMDEX wordmark over a triangular mesh on section dividers, speaker headshot dividers, KPI boxes and teal bar charts. The guest EY section uses EY's own black and yellow styling.

Where can I find the original announcement?

The presentation was released through the ASX market announcements platform under IMDEX's code and is also available from the investors section of the IMDEX website.
