Ocean Guardian creators of Shark Shield lodge supplementary prospectus
Media Release - 29 May 2018
Ocean Guardian Holdings Limited today lodged a supplementary prospectus updating the market on significant Q3 revenue growth of 78%, new research commissioned by NSW Department of Planning and Industry (DPI), an announcement by the WA State Government adding the company’s FREEDOM+ Surf to the Shark Deterrent Rebate Program, and the launch date of the new boat, beach and hand-held range of products.
The company has completed final design concepts for the worlds first long-range boat and beach shark deterrent products with a starting target price of ~$2,500. These new designs (LR10, FP15, LR10S) allow for a target of approximately 10% of RRP as an annual service maintenance charge for maintaining safety equipment, in the same revenue model associated with annually certifying fire extinguishers and life rafts. Features include an innovative solar powered accessory for unattended 24/7 protection for segment such as surf lifesaving, private jetties, canals, fish farms, etc.
Lindsay Lyon, Ocean Guardian CEO says, “The company’s funding plan after listing on the ASX is to launch these new boat, beach and handheld products simultaneously at the Marine Equipment Trade Show (METS) and The Diving Equipment & Marketing Association (DEMA). METS in 2018 is to be held in November in Amsterdam and is the world’s biggest business to business leisure marine equipment show, and DEMA in 2018 is held in November in Las Vegas and is considered the world’s largest dive equipment show. These shows provide exceptional global launch platforms”.
The IPO launched on the 26th April 2018, Ocean Guardian are seeking to raise up to $5,000,000 (before costs) issuing 25,000,000 new Shares at an Offer Price of $0.20 per Share (Offer), with an oversubscription to raise up to a total of $6,000,000.

About Ocean Guardian
In 2018, the Shark Shield company became Ocean Guardian®. The change of name reflects our bigger ambition – to make you safe whatever you enjoy doing in the Ocean – while also protecting the planet we call home.
Ocean Guardian, powered by Shark Shield Technology, is the world’s only scientifically proven electrical shark deterrent. Nothing is more effective.
Sharks have short-range electrical receptors in their snouts used for finding food, Ocean Guardian’s government approved, and patented technology creates a powerful three-dimensional electrical field which causes unbearable spasms in these sensitive receptors turning sharks away, including Great Whites.
Ocean Guardian has worked tirelessly over 20-years in partnership with the world’s leading experts in sharks, including the KwaZulu-Natal Sharks Board in South Africa and independent universities, resulting in peer reviewed science journals confirming the technologies effectiveness in deterring sharks.
Ocean Guardian safety products are trusted by surfers, divers, and ocean lovers around the world and are recommended safety equipment in professional industries such navies and abalone diving. With no known permanent harm to sharks, the products directly support the conservation of sharks and other marine life by removing the need for shark nets and culling, ensuring the ocean can be shared – safely and in harmony with nature. They are the ultimate ocean guardian.
