Sector context

At midday, the ASX Information Technology sector was up 8.47%, the largest sector gain of the day. Frontier Digital shares moved lower in the session, against that gain. The half-year report is dated for the period to 30 June and is not linked to the 5 November price movement.

What to watch ahead

Investors will follow the company's next interim or full-year report, the movement in its net tangible asset value and any update on the operating businesses that contribute to revenue and associate earnings.

Risks

Revenue fell 27% in the half year, and the result relies on Operating Expense reductions and associate earnings. Net tangible asset value depends on the valuation of the underlying investments, which can change. The shares are small-cap and can move on limited trading.
