Dubber raises $22m to accelerate growth

Dubber raises $22m to accelerate growth

We are pleased to announce that we have successfully secured AUD$22 million from investors, with an investor demand that exceeded our aims. These funds will support our continued pursuit of global growth opportunities and allow us to scale to meet increased demand and secure long-term recurring revenue.

How this raise will be used

Dubber have existing agreements with 92 telecommunications service providers and we are continuing to see strong demand for our products. Service providers are seeking to provide services to their customers that are rich in features and they are standardising these across multiple networks. These existing relationships will be instrumental in driving customer uptake of our services and bring with them long-term value through recurring revenue. Our new investment will go towards our continued expansion into new deployments with service providers across the globe, particularly in North America and Europe.

Our Dubber Connect model is a fully-managed service that allows rapid deployment of our products. Its popularity with service providers means that we will be investing in additional business development and sales staff to ensure we can develop this model further and refine our offering.

As the embedded recording service for the Cisco BroadCloud platform, Dubber has substantial global opportunities. Funding will support growth avenues through the global presence of Cisco BroadCloud. Our recent agreement with IBM to market a joint technology solution will also receive support to fully take advantage of IBM’s substantial client base.

A ‘significant milestone’

Steve McGovern, Dubber CEO, commented on the raise: “This is a significant milestone for Dubber, following strong growth across our key metrics. Dubber has a unique advantage through its operating leverage, that to date has allowed us to service the largest carriers in the world, in a number of different continents, with less than 60 employees. We are truly excited to now invest in the next stage of growth to ensure that we become the de-facto industry solution in our market.”

Dubber Corporation Limited (ASX: DUB) is pleased to announce that it has received commitments for a $6.5 million capital raising placed with institutional and sophisticated investors. The capital raising will result in the placement of 17,143,572 new fully paid ordinary shares at an issue price of $0.35 per new share (with a further 1,428,572 subject to shareholder approval) under the Company’s current placement capacity in accordance with Listing Rule 7.1 (5,435,343 shares) and 7.1A (11,708,229 shares). The price of $0.35 meets the requirements of LR 7.1A.3 in being greater than 75% of the 15-day VWAP.

Settlement of the placement and issue of new shares is expected around Wednesday, 20 December 2017.

The placement was supported by existing shareholders and institutional investors. The funds raised will be used to further expand Dubber’s operations, particularly in North America and Europe where the Company is seeing strong demand for its services and a number of strategic agreements with tier one service providers reach anticipated full deployment in calendar 2018. The Company will also be adding additional staffing and strategic account directors as its cloud call recording and intelligence platform is fully integrated into BroadSoft’s BroadCloud Unified Communications delivery platform.

As part of the capital raising a significant portion was taken by entities managed by James Spenceley, an Australian telecommunications pioneer and founder of Australia’s largest fixed line Telco Vocus Group Limited.

“The adoption of cloud based IP telephony is accelerating globally, a pre-requisite of that successful transition is cloud based call recording. Dubber’s solution is simply world leading and solves a very real problem for Telcos and Vendors looking to transition their clients to the cloud. It is exciting to be able to support a home-grown technology business addressing a global market and validated by some of the world’s biggest telcos and telephony vendors” said Mr. Spenceley.
