Madison Update – 1 June (Morning)

Commercial in confidence

Morning all, hope you enjoyed the weekend.  A quick update on sale progress.  Contract negotiations are almost at an end.  You may have seen the OneVue ASX announcement this morning (CLICK HERE), which indicates execution of the sale agreement being imminent.  As soon as I’m informed, I’ll provide an update.  Once the settlement occurs, the transition to the new owner will trigger.  A comprehensive communication and project plan is prepared, including the support we will provide for the change of ownership.

The other significant news today is the OneVue IRESS Announcement (CLICK HERE).  Some key points:

  • The acquisition creates significant, accelerated opportunities for clients beyond what OneVue could deliver as a stand-alone business, with Iress being committed to ongoing investment in the OneVue business.
  • This is a strategic acquisition by Iress, so the focus is on retaining good people and driving growth.   Until the shareholders vote on the transaction the business will very much continue as ‘business as usual’.  The current focus of the team is to remain on delivering the best financial year end across all 3 operating businesses despite COVID19.
  • In terms of the sale itself, this remains subject to shareholder and regulatory approval, completion is expected by end of September, after which a transition period of 4-6 months will ensue.
With respect to WealthPortal, there is no change to current operations.  However, I see this acquisition as a good opportunity for our community longer term.
