Dear Shareholders,

More services delivered to more patients. Better safety and cost control than ever before. Big increase in Same Store Sales. Excellent financial results. Record interim dividend.

That's the brief summary of the first half of the 2021 financial year.

At year-end in June 2020 we were hopeful that our response to the COVID-19 disruptions would get our business back on track. At the beginning of this current year we saw positive signs that our response to the new operating environment was working. Half way through the year we have a business which is operating at a new level.

1300SMILES has always been fierce in its pursuit of incremental improvement. Over the years we have implemented thousands of changes, big and small, to improve services to our dentists and patients while controlling expenses and improving returns to shareholders. The pursuit of constant improvement is at the core of everything we do.

I'm proud to report that in the first half of the current year this constant improvement accelerated to a remarkable degree. This shows up in many of the key measures we use to track our performance. Among these good figures, shareholders are likely to appreciate that both Net Profit After Tax and Earnings per Share are up by 35%.

This first year of COVID-19 spurred us along in ways that have equipped us to deliver more services to more patients than ever before, all while maintaining the highest safety standards and controlling costs. Our head office and practice-level staff have worked tirelessly through this trying time and they have delivered brilliant results.

Financial Results for the half-year ended 31 December 2020

•

•

•

•

Revenue (OTC) up 8% to $34.8 million	•	Revenue (Statutory) up 1% to $23.8 million
EBITDA up 17% to $11.0 million	•	NPBT up 34% to $8.1 million
NPAT up 35% to $5.9 million	•	Earnings Per Share up 35% to 25.0c
Interim dividend up 9% to 14.5c	•	Bank debt down 30% to $10.5 million

Net Profit After Tax, Earnings per Share & Dividend

The strong 35% growth in Net Profit After Tax delivered an equal 35% growth in earnings to a new record high at 25.0c per share. This is the single figure which reflects the sum of all of our efforts to grow revenue, control costs, and manage our capital properly.

Your board has, accordingly, increased the interim dividend to a record 14.5c per share. Shareholders will recall that we held the final dividend for 2020 steady despite the sharp COVID-19-induced drop in EPS. This was our way of signalling to shareholders that we believed the earnings dip was transitory, as it has indeed proved to be.

As always, we believe shareholders must be treated as the true owners of this business and we manage the dividend to reflect the experience of a business owner navigating good times and bad.

*Chronic Disease Dental Scheme (CDDS)

Statutory Revenue

Shareholders may notice that for a period which delivered such strong metrics, Statutory Revenue was up just 1% on the previous year's first half.

Statutory Revenue, alas, is an accounting construct which differs greatly from the common sense understanding of "revenue." Many elements go into the calculation of Statutory Revenue. In this case, Statutory Revenue in the previous year's first half was increased by a few items you might not consider revenue.

Most important to shareholders, the Dental Revenue portion of Statutory Revenue increased by 8% in 1H21 compared to the previous first half.

Other non-core elements of Statutory Revenue declined. These include:

• • profit on disposal of assets: in the previous period, we booked a gain on the disposal of certain dental practices, something we do from time to time but not in every period.

• • consulting revenue: this is not normally a core business, but it came into play in the previous year's first half in relation to one transaction

• • de-recognition of contingent consideration: it became apparent in 1H20 that certain amounts set aside as probable obligations would not be required

Same store sales

As in most years, 1300SMILES acquired additional practices during the year. Also, it is normal in most years to dispose of a small number of practices which no longer meet our performance standards or no longer serve as part of the best possible footprint for our business.

For this reason, the raw Revenue numbers reported can be affected by the number of practices generating that Revenue in a given year. This is what makes the Same Store Sales figure useful, as it reflects the progress of our business at locations established throughout the period.

In the first half of the 2021 year, our Same Store Sales increased by a solid 10%. Remember that in the first half of the previous year we had not yet heard of COVID-19, so that 10% increase comes in comparison to a normal period which delivered, at that time, record-high Revenue.

EBITDA

Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, and Amortisation--this is a measure we report and explain in most periods because it gives a true measure of the quality of the operating business, excluding such things as the level of debt employed. EBITDA also enables the comparison of businesses across different industries.

In the first half of the 2021 year, our EBITDA was up a gratifying 17% to $11.0 million. That increase summarises the effectiveness and efficiency of our business at every step. The starting point is solid Revenue, supported by efficient operations and cost control.

The accounting standard AASB-16 took effect with the 2020 financial year. This new standard changed the calculation of EBITDA significantly. This effect shows up in the chart below, in which EBITDA in the years prior to the 2020 year was calculated in accordance with the then-current standard. The figures shown for the 2020 and 2021 years are calculated under the new standard, so our presentations going forward will continue to show this step-change between 2019 and 2020.

Nevertheless, it is important to note that the 2021 figures to date are calculated on exactly the same basis as the figures from the previous year. In 1H'21 we have seen a significant increase in both EBITDA and in EBITDA as a proportion of Revenue.

On-line booking

A significant contributor to both the Revenue and cost control is the greatly expanded use of our on-line booking system. From the pre-COVID-19 month of January 2020 to the most recent month of January 2021, the number of patient appointments booked on-line grew by 79% to 2,199.

We recognise that some of our patients still prefer to book by phone, and we look after these patients with the same friendly service as always. For many others, however, the past year is one in which people became more accustomed to doing things on-line, and this has become the first preference for many.

Statutory & OTC Revenue

The percentage increase in Over-the-Counter Revenue, at 8%, is significantly greater than the increase in our Statutory Revenue. As I have noted before, these two measures often differ widely from one period to the next. This variation is sometimes driven by the changing mix of contract dentists and employed dentists operating with the 1300SMILES system and sometimes by one-off inclusions in Statutory Revenue as mandated by the accounting standards. As always, it is our view that OTC Revenue gives a far better indication of the size of our business, as it measures the total amount of money paid by patients for services.

"Stat Revenue" is the Revenue we report in our statutory accounts.

"Over-the-Counter (OTC) Revenue" is a measure which captures the full value paid by patients for all dental services rendered.

OTC Revenue gives a clearer indication of the scale of our business. The difference is that Statutory Revenue excludes the portion of patient fees retained by self-employed dentists.

Thanks

Finally, as always, I note that our business only exists thanks to the support of our many patients throughout Australia. This support in turn results from the quality care provided by our dentists, dental support staff, and practice and business management teams - thank you to all of you; my admiration for your resilience, professionalism and care has grown even more this year. Finally, I thank our shareholders for your continuing support.

ABOUT 1300SMILES LTD

OVERVIEW OF THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS

1300SMILES Ltd owns and operates full-service dental facilities at its sites in New South Wales, and in the ten major population centres in Queensland. The company continually seeks to expand its presence into other geographical areas throughout Australia. It does so both by establishing its own new operations and by acquiring existing dental practices. The administrative and corporate offices are in Townsville.

1300SMILES enables the delivery of services to patients by providing the use of dental surgeries, practice management and other services to self-employed dentists who carry on their own dental practices. The services provided by the company allow the dentists to focus on the delivery of dental services rather than on the administrative aspects of carrying on their businesses. The dentists pay fees to the company for the provision of these services under a Dental Service Agreement with the company. In some circumstances the company also employs qualified dentists.

The dentists who use the company's services range from new graduates to experienced dental professionals. Several dentists who use the company's services have special interests and experience in such areas as endodontics, oral surgery, implants and periodontics and cross-refer work to other dentists who use the company's services.

The company provides comprehensive services in the areas of marketing, administration, billing and collections, and facilities certification and licensing to all participating dentists. The company also provides all support staff, equipment and facilities, and sources all consumable goods using the buying power which derives from such a large group of dental businesses.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS

The company's core objective is to continue to increase profits and shareholder returns while providing a rewarding environment for our staff and the dentists using our facilities.

The company aims to achieve a combination of organic growth in its existing locations and the addition of new practice management facilities.

The key drivers for future growth of the company are:

• • Increasing profits by attracting more dentists to our existing facilities and expanding those facilities which are already at full capacity;

• • Assisting dentists who already practice within the 1300SMILES system to increase their turnover and income through benchmarking, training, and mentoring;

• • Establishing new practices in existing and new regions (greenfield sites);

• • Acquiring substantial existing practices where we can do so on favourable terms; and

• • Managing dental facilities owned by others.

DENTIST ENQUIRIES

Owners of dental practices who are interested in unlocking the goodwill value of their businesses (or freeing themselves from all the management hassles) are invited to contact Dr. Daryl Holmes, Managing Director, on [phone] [e-mail].

Qualified dentists who wish to know more about joining one of our established facilities are encouraged to contact Dr. Holmes directly or [e-mail] or visit our websitewww.1300smiles.com.au/careers.

Note 1: Basis of preparation for the half-year report

This consolidated interim financial report for the half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2020 has been prepared in accordance with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001. The group is a for-profit entity for financial reporting purposes under Australian Accounting Standards.

This interim financial report does not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial report. Accordingly, this report is to be read in conjunction with the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020 and any public announcements made by 1300SMILES Limited during the interim reporting period in accordance with the continuous disclosure requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

These interim financial statements were authorised for issue on 16 February 2021.

(a) Accounting policies

The same accounting policies and methods of computation have been followed in this interim financial report as were applied in the most recent annual financial statements except for those described below.

New or amended accounting standards and interpretations adopted by the group

The consolidated entity has adopted all of the new or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

Note 2: Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements, estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors, including expectations of future events which management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will seldom equal the related actual results. There have been no changes to the judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next calendar year, to those disclosed in the annual report for the year ended 30 June 2020.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic

Judgement has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has had, or may have, on the group based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the group operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the group unfavorably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Note 3: Segment information

Description of segments

Operating segments have been determined on the basis of reports reviewed by the Board of Directors (who are identified as the chief operating decision makers). The Board considers the business from a geographic perspective and assess performance and allocate resources on this basis.

Each operating segment derives revenue from dental and management services within a particular geographic area. Each operating segment is aggregated into the one reportable segment as the long-term financial performance and economic characteristics of each operating segment are similar.

The financial results from this reportable segment are equivalent to the financial statements of the consolidated entity as a whole.

Note 4: Income tax

Income tax expense is recognised based on management's estimate of the weighted average effective annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year. The estimated average annual tax rate used for the six months ended 31 December 2020 is 26%, compared to 27.5% for the six months ended 31 December 2019. The Group's tax rate status was assessed at 30 June 2020, and the aggregated turnover for the year was below the $50 million threshold hence the base-rate entity tax rate.

The voluntary escrow is progressively released over a six-year period. The loans are full recourse and repayable 13 months after the company makes a call on the borrowers. The loans are secured by lien over the shares acquired from proceeds of the share loan. In the event the borrowers sell any shares, a proportionate percentage of the outstanding loan is required to be repaid. Interest on loans is charged on a commercial basis, varying from 3.5% to 5.5%.

b) Redeemable preference shares were held during the period in an unlisted public company. Terms of fixed interest repayments range from 27 months to 29 months, with rates of return varying from 11% to 12%. No voting rights are attached to the shares held. Management intend to hold the investments for cash flow purposes and not share trading purposes.

V WTO THE MEMBERS OF 1300SMILES LIMITED

Conclusion

We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of 1300SMILES Limited (the company), which comprises the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 December 2020, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, a statement of accounting policies, other selected explanatory notes, and the

'	prising the company and the entities it
controlled at the half-	'	-year.

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of 1300SMILES Limited and its controlled entities is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including:

(a)

'

31 December 2020, and of

its financial performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

(b) complying with the Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the

Corporations Regulations 2001.

Independence

In conducting our review, we have complied with the independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001.

In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 Independence Declaration.

' Responsibility for the Half-Year Financial Report

The directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with the Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

'

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. We conducted our review in accordance with Auditing Standard on Review Engagements ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, in order to state whether, on the basis of the procedures described, we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including: giving a true and fair view of the consolidated

'

31 December 2020 and its performance for the half year ended on that date, andcomplying with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001. As the auditor of 1300SMILES Limited and its controlled entities, ASRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual financial report.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
