Announcement PDF ASX Announcement/Press Release: 3rd July 2023 Xref Limited (ASX: XF1) Employment engagement added to Xref’s product offering. Global HR tech platform Xref (ASX:XF1) has today announced the launch of Xref Engage. This delivers on a key pillar of Xref's growth strategy, offering a comprehensive employee survey product, accessible from Xref's Enterprise Platform. Xref has established a global leadership position in automated applicant reference checking. Xref is delighted to showcase Xref Engage in today's launch, following the 2022 launch of the Enterprise and Exit Survey products as well as the recent launch of Pulse Surveys along with the rebrand of its recently acquired business, the Voice Project. Xref Engage offers surveys across the entire talent lifecycle: Onboarding, Employee Engagement, Leadership 360, Pulse and Exit Surveys. The launch will provide Xref’s 1,300 enterprise clients and 15,000 users access to Xref Engage from the Xref Enterprise Platform at an additional cost. The Engage platform, with its comprehensive suite of market-leading surveys provides employers with the ability to view information about a candidate, employee, or ex-employee in one place, and identify actionable insights. Update on Xref Enterprise Platform The existing client base has been offered access to Xref Enterprise since October 2022, representing a migration of 800 users across to the new platform. In addition, 94 % of the 141 new clients that have joined Xref since the launch of the new platform are on SaaS based agreements, rather than Xref's traditional model of purchasing credits. Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) from subscription agreements is $0.33m, which represents approximately 20% of overall revenue from Xref’s platform (excluding RapidID, Trust Marketplace and Xref Engage). Xref Engage is priced separately but can also be bundled as part of an Xref Enterprise subscription. Pricing depends on the organisation's size, survey complexity and frequency. It is expected that as a result of the launch of Pulse Surveys, Xref Engage and the coming addition of Trust Marketplace Checks in Q1FY24, the growth of new and existing clients moving onto the new platform will increase and accelerate Xref’s growth. Business Update Meeting Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Lee-Martin Seymour will host a virtual investor meeting to provide a business update on Wednesday, 19th July at 11:00 am AEDT. A detailed business update will be released prior to the meeting.

Our teams have worked tirelessly over the last 6 months to execute on Xref’s Hire-to-Retire strategy. With further development updates planned for the first half of FY2024 we are positioned well to leverage Xref’s trusted brand, credibility and our audience of passionately engaged clients around the world.” Voice Project's founder Dr Peter Langford, said “Our team has rapidly and successfully integrated into Xref over the last 6 months. All our functions are now fully integrated, we've undertaken a complete rebrand to Xref Engage and we have maintained our headcount. We're now perfectly positioned to leverage Xref's extensive sales, marketing and technology development strengths”. Xref Chairman, Tom Stianos, said “Innovation and continuous improvement are essential to the long-term success of any software company. It is reassuring that Xref can still fund investment in product development despite the current softer business cycle. These exciting developments will serve the Company well as it continues its growth journey in 2024 and beyond.” This announcement has been approved by the board of directors of Xref Limited.
