1. Operational Activities
1.1 Digital Advertising and Sponsorship Activities with PSSI, Indonesia
Whisper Media Commences Digital Advertising Sales
Whisper Media has successfully commenced selling all digital assets on the KitaGaruda app,
generating the first advertising revenues for PSSI (Football Federation of Indonesia) and SHO in
June 2024. This marks a significant inflection point in our digital revenue strategy, leveraging the
growing popularity of the KitaGaruda platform.
Whisper Media is committed to maximizing sales over the next 6 to 12 months. This effort is
supported by a substantial increase in app traffic, driven by the Indonesian National Team’s recent
performance and progress to the next round of the football World Cup Qualifiers. We anticipate
continued growth in advertising revenues as we capitalize on this momentum.

KitaGaruda App Advertising Sales
PSSI and SHO have confirmed a total of IDR 7.4 billion (approximately AUD 717,000) in
advertising contracts in Indonesia. These contracts underscore the strong demand for advertising
opportunities associated with PSSI, driven by the increasing engagement of football fans in the
region. This quarter, we have secured advertising partnerships with several prominent brands,
including Djarum, McDonald's, Mitsubishi, Pepsodent, SOHO, Tango, and Aqua. These
partnerships highlight the attractiveness of our digital platforms to leading advertisers.
To date, the net digital revenue to SHO stands at IDR 991,000,000 (approximately AUD 90,000).
This revenue reflects our effective monetization strategies and the successful execution of our
digital advertising campaigns.
PSSI Major Sponsorship Renewals
PSSI has confirmed major sponsorship renewals with all 7 key brand partners, including Bank
Mandiri, AQUA, IndoSat, IndoMilk, FreePort, Sinarmas, and AstraFinance. SHO has confirmed
that its wholly-owned KitaGaruda app is included as part of the digital inventory within the major
sponsorship renewal contracts. This highlights the importance of our KitaGaruda App as the
official digital platform for Indonesian Football, ensuring that our app remains a central component
of PSSI sponsorship packages.
SHO will provide details on our sponsorship revenue share under the 70% PSSI/30% SHO
partnership split as soon as the revenue allocation has been determined. We expect to receive
the revenue within the current quarter.
1.2 IGV Gaming Product Development
Over the past quarter, IGV has developed an innovative and proprietary service to be introduced
on the IGV platform along with the current products. This innovative service allows gamers to
enjoy over 200 of the most popular PC games, including renowned titles like Call of Duty, Among
Us, Counter-Strike 2, Elden Ring, PUBG, Grand Theft Auto 5, and Rust.
The service operates on a subscription model with monthly subscription pricing. IGV believes this
offers exceptional value for their current customer base of avid gamers. Currently, the product is
in final testing in IGV’s select core markets including North America and France. It is important to
note that these passes are specifically designed for desktop computer and PC gaming, ensuring

optimal performance for traditional gaming setups. This new offering from IGV represents a
significant step forward in making a wide array of high-quality PC games more accessible and
affordable to gamers across multiple regions.
The timing of this launch is particularly opportune, given the substantial growth in the gaming
market. In Indonesia alone, there are 149.28 million gamers, with 8.31 million identified as PC
gamers. This presents a considerable opportunity for IGV to capture a significant share of this
expanding market.
This IGV subscription service is poised to disrupt the traditional gaming model by offering a costeffective alternative to purchasing individual games. This model not only provides exceptional
value for our customers but also encourages them to explore a diverse range of titles without the
financial commitment of full-price purchases.
We believe this innovative service will offer a unique point of difference for the Indonesian and
Thailand gaming markets. The service is targeted to go live in the September quarter and be
rolled out as SHO expands IGV into other Southeast Asian markets.
1.3 Talon Partnership
As a result of the synergies with Talon and especially in the Thailand market, we have decided to
pivot the Talon partnership strategy to include the launch of IGV Thailand. Talon has a
comprehensive local team including top esports influencers, content creators, and a strong fan
base. This provides SHO with an opportunity to fast-track the launch of IGV into the Thai market
with an engaged audience.
TALON is Asia Pacific’s fastest growing esports brand (with a 20m+ fan base) and a diverse range
of revenue streams, including tournament winnings, sponsorship, player transfers, publisher fees
and the sale of merchandise both physical and digital, as well as events and its own creative
studio, TALON brings the discipline of traditional sport to competitive gaming.
1.4 China
Zongheng Esports (Shanghai), was established as an interim entity by way of a local company
structure by a local Chinese National shareholder with the shares held in trust for and on behalf

of SHO under a deed of trust (Deed) while SHO worked to set up a wholly-owned foreign
enterprise (WOFE). As SHO’s primary focus for China has now pivoted to expanding successful
Chinese esports businesses into Southeast Asian markets similar to IGV, SHO has terminated
the deed of trust and will conduct future business in China through a WOFE.
