GTK - Gentrack

[sb9]

The poor b@stard at this firm who dumped 1% of total outstanding shares, only to see a huge move to the upside in the days afterward. Thats at least half million dollars in foregone gains.

Our man Gary is also happy to lock in some profits by disposing $0.5mln worth of stock. He's still got zillion free ones though...

Gentrack invests in Amber to enhance and globally license Amber’s energy optimisation solutions

Gentrack (NZX/ASX:GTK) has made an AUD $12m investment in Amber as part of a $29m Series C funding round.

Amber is an Australian based technology company and energy retailer that gives customers direct access to real time energy prices and the technology to automate their home batteries and EVs to unlock more value. Amber’s technology has been the driver of its doubling in growth over the last six months as it allows customers to use their batteries to reduce their energy bills - or get paid for their energy, while staying in control.

Gentrack’s investment includes an agreement that will see Gentrack and Amber further develop, and internationally sell and deploy, an end-to-end solution for billing, care and optimisation for household batteries, EV chargers and other smart devices to automate load shifting for customers.

This partnership will position Amber and Gentrack to compete in the fast-growing international utility market for smart device optimisation products.

Dan Adams Co-CEO and Co-Founder, Amber Electric said: “We are delighted that Gentrack has led this round and excited by the opportunities this strategic partnership will unlock. From our first meeting with Gentrack it was clear we have a common vision. For us, having a strong global delivery partner who is reliable, respected and capable is essential. We’ve received significant interest from overseas utilities to license our software. Gentrack will accelerate our ambition of maximising and expanding the number of markets we can reach with our technology.”

“Part of the funds from this investment round will go to us upgrading to Gentrack’s leading billing and customer care solution. They are a global leader and have an excellent reputation for delivery and support. The Gentrack system has the out-of-the-box capabilities needed to deploy flexible energy solutions while many of the older systems in the market can’t cope with such propositions. By bundling our technology with Gentrack’s, we will be well positioned to deploy it around the world” added Amber’s Co-CEO and Co-Founder Chris Thompson.

Gary Miles, CEO Gentrack said: “The founders Chris and Dan are passionate about building products that customers love and to accelerate the energy transition. In many ways, they are leading the transition to a two-way grid that reduces carbon usage and energy bills for consumers. It is a team and technology that we are excited to invest in and take globally. I am confident our customers and prospects will find the offering highly compelling. By integrating Gentrack’s g2.0 with Amber Electric’s SmartShiftTM technology we can present a strong and viable option to utilities internationally.”

The $29m Series C round, led by Gentrack, will also see Breakthrough Victoria, and Rubio Impact Ventures join existing Amber Electric shareholders Commonwealth Bank, Square Peg and Main Sequence.

Amber customers capture the full value of their household batteries and EVs in the energy market while accelerating the renewable transition. Amber is now planning to licence its technology to international utilities.
