Corporate information

Overview

Joint Stock Company “Kaspi.kz” operates a two-sided Super App business model: the Kaspi.kz Super App for consumers and the Kaspi Pay Super App for merchants and entrepreneurs. Our offerings include payments, marketplace and fintech solutions for both consumers and merchants. Our business model, reinforced by our highly recognizable brand and continuing product innovation, generates powerful network effects, which has resulted in growth across all our platforms and strong financial performance.

Kaspi.kz Segments

Our segment reporting is based on our three business platforms:

•

Payments: Our Payments Platform facilitates transactions between and among merchants and consumers. For consumers, our Payments Platform is a highly convenient way to pay for shopping transactions, regular household bills and make peer-to-peer payments. For merchants, our Payments Platform enables them to accept payments online and in-store, issue and instantly settle invoices, pay suppliers and monitor merchants’ turnover. Our Payments Platform is our main customer acquisition tool and we consider it to be fundamental for high levels of customer engagement. Having achieved scale with consumers and merchants, our Payments Platform brings more value to consumers and merchants. Payments Platform proprietary data facilitates informed decision-making across multiple areas of our business.

•

Marketplace: Our Marketplace Platform connects both online and offline merchants with consumers, enabling merchants to increase their sales through an omnichannel strategy and allowing consumers to purchase a broad selection of products and services from a wide range of merchants. Marketplace has three main propositions—m-Commerce, e-Commerce and Kaspi Travel. m-Commerce is our mobile solution for shopping in person, while consumers can use e-Commerce to shop anywhere, anytime and typically with free delivery. Kaspi Travel allows consumers to book domestic and international flights, domestic rail tickets and international package holidays. We help merchants increase their sales by connecting them to our Payments and Fintech products, Kaspi Advertising and our delivery services. Other than in e-Grocery and car e-commerce, our Marketplace Platform is a “3P” model, enabling third-party merchants to sell their products directly to consumers. Following the completion of our investment in Kolesa JSC, we have access to widely recognized classifieds platforms in Kazakhstan and Autoelon.uz, an Uzbekistan car marketplace and member of the Kolesa Group.

•

Fintech: Our Fintech Platform provides consumers with BNPL, finance and savings products, and merchants with merchant finance services. All Fintech services can be accessed through our Super Apps, fully digitally, with users identified using Kaspi ID biometrics technology. We incentivize consumers and merchants to prepay any finance products prior to contractual maturity without penalty, which helps to drive frequency of transactions. We lend only in local currency and we fund our financing products mainly using Kaspi Deposits, which are primarily local currency savings accounts. As we add more opportunities to transact with the Kaspi.kz Super App, we anticipate that consumers will keep more of their deposits with us.

Recipients of GDR options are entitled to receive dividends once GDR options vested and exercised.

The inputs into the Black-Scholes model are as follows:


	31 December 2023	30 September 2024

Black-Scholes model inputs:
Weighted average share price in USD	67.3	67.3
Expected volatility	42.4%	42.4%
Risk-free rate	4.2%	4.2%
Dividend yield	7.0%	7.0%

Expected volatility is based on the historical share price volatility over the past 3 years.

Assets and liabilities for which fair value approximates carrying value

For financial assets and liabilities that have a short-term maturity (less than 3 months), it is assumed that the carrying amounts approximate to their fair value. This assumption is also applied to demand deposits and savings accounts without a maturity.

Due from banks

The estimated fair value of term due from banks is determined by discounting the contractual cash flows using interest rates currently offered for due from banks with similar terms.

Loans to customers

Loans to individual customers are made at fixed rates. The fair value of fixed rate loans has been estimated by reference to the market rates available at the reporting date for loans with similar maturity profile.

Due to banks

The estimated fair value of due to banks is determined by discounting the contractual cash flows using interest rates currently offered for due to banks with similar terms.

Customer accounts

The estimated fair value of term deposits is determined by discounting contractual cash flows using interest rates currently offered for deposits with similar terms. For current accounts which are non-interest bearing, the Group considers fair value to equal carrying value, which is equivalent to the amount payable on the balance sheet date.

Debt securities issued, subordinated debt

Debt securities issued and subordinated debt are valued using quoted prices.
