John Watkins, Executive Chairman of Trakm8 said:

"Trakm8 has had a period of good organic growth from existing and new customers.  The installed base of devices continues to increase resulting in growing recurring revenues which are the core of Trakm8's long term growth and predictability."

"First half profitability has been very much in line with expectations and is a positive improvement on last year's result."

"The £1.55m reduction of net debt since the start of the financial year provides the improved balance sheet to support growth."

"We anticipate a stronger second half as usual.  With our strong range of substantial new contracts in place, and as a result of increased sales and marketing activity, we have visibility to support our second half expectations."

"The outcome for the full year is less dependent on securing contracts from new customers than in previous years.  The outcome is dependent on existing customer contracts where there is a level of uncertainty of end user demand.  The Board remains confident that the market expectations will be met for the full year."

Executive Chairman's Statement

Results

I am pleased to report Trakm8's results for the six months ended 30 September 2017, in line with expectations for the full year.

There has been continued progress for the Group as it migrates into a pure telematics data solutions provider, with ongoing reductions in hardware sales to other telematics companies and contract electronic manufacturing (CEM) activities.  This has the effect in the short term of reducing the headline growth of the Group but ensures focus on the long term higher quality of earnings from data solutions.  Increased engineering and sales & marketing investments have borne fruit in new contracts and revenues. Optimisation sales combined with telematics has gained momentum.  Integrated telematics and camera technology is generating increased revenues and unit service fees.

Revenues grew 12% in the period to £14.75m (2016: £13.18m).  This includes 29% growth in Trakm8's core Solutions business to £12.48m (2016: £9.69m).  As planned, products sales reduced by 35% to £2.27m (2016: £3.49m) reflecting the policy to eliminate the low margin CEM activity.

Total recurring revenues increased by 17% during the period to £5.48m (2016: £4.69m), which are generated from increased numbers of connections (units reporting to our servers).  There is an ongoing trend of lower service fees per unit for the same functionality.  This is a necessary trend as it widens the market opportunity.  Margins are protected with lower costs and overall the Gross Margin was maintained.  Higher service fees are generated from the higher value added camera systems as a partial offset.  Recurring revenues remain the core of the Group's business model and financial security.

As reported previously Brexit had a £0.6m adverse impact on our gross margins, primarily in the second half of our 2017 financial year mainly through adverse currency movements on raw materials purchases.  This impact has continued through the first half of this financial year, but we have taken certain steps to reduce the effect with the result that gross profit margin has been maintained at 48% (2016: 48%). 

Financial year 2017 represented a year of significant investment in which we made a deliberate decision to increase investment for future growth given the potential opportunities we saw ahead.  We also implemented a streamlining of activities to reduce operating costs offset by increased investment in sales and engineering.  During the current year we have maintained our investment in sales and marketing, and as a result in this first half engineering, sales and marketing expenditure has increased year on year by £1.2m, of which £0.3m was capitalised R&D, resulting in a net increase in operating expense of £0.9m.

Total overhead costs, excluding exceptional costs and a £0.3m increase in depreciation and amortisation, increased by only £0.1m year on year to £5.46m (2016: £5.34m).  The £0.9m increase in engineering, sales and marketing overhead expenditure was offset by a reduction in other overhead costs of £0.8m as a result of our efficiency and streamlining projects.  Both these projects are continuing in the second half of the year. 

Adjusted operating profit increased by 78% to £1.05m (2016: £0.59m).  Adjusted operating profit excludes the share based payment charge of £0.08m and exceptional costs of £0.16m.  The exceptional costs relate to the integration and streamlining of operations which includes the consolidation of further resources in Coleshill and costs relating to the exit from contract electronic manufacturing.  Adjusted basic earnings per share has increased by 125% to 3.56p (2016: 1.58p).

Financial position

 

Net cash generated from operating activities was £3.57m (2016: £0.13m), which included R&D tax credit cash receipts of £1.64m (2016: £0.14m).  The cash generation, removing the impact of the R&D tax cash is still £1.92m.  There was a significant reduction in inventory but this was offset by an increase in debtors following good revenue months towards period end.  

The transition of more customers to monthly payment models (including SaaS) has continued to take place which impacts up front cash generation, but this has been offset in part by monthly payment deals of previous years and some deals with new customers being financed by third parties.

Our net debt as at 30 September 2017 was reduced to £2.32m (2016: £4.40m) (FY17: £3.87m) including £2.72m of cash (2016: £1.44m) (FY17: £1.99m).  In addition, the Group at 30 September 2017 held an increased undrawn credit facility of £3.70m at HSBC.

We previously reported our revenues in two ways, Solution Sales and Product Sales, and we report the summary analysis below for the six months to 30 September 2017.  As already highlighted we are exiting Product Sales.  In future we will only report Solution Sales.   

 

Solution Sales 

This area of sales comprises Fleet Management, Optimisation, Insurance and Automotive Solution revenues including associated engineering services.  This is the core activity for the Group.

Recurring revenues from this base have grown by 17% to £5.48m (2016: £4.69m) and represent 37% of Group revenues (2016: 36%).  At the period end we had approximately 217,000 units (Sept 2016: 177,000 units) reporting to our servers, being an increase of 23% over the last twelve months.  This is an increase of 27,000 units (14%) since 31 March 2017.

Since March 2017 Fleet units installed have increased by 4,000 units to 70,000, whilst Insurance & Automotive increased by 23,000 to 147,000.

Overall, Solution sales were 29% greater than the same period of 2016 at £12.48m (2016: £9.69m) and represent 85% of Group revenue (2016: 74%).

We continue to have a high level of significant opportunities in the pipeline as a result of the expansion of the sales teams.  We anticipate that revenues will continue to grow strongly in this area.

Product Sales

This area of sales comprises all the hardware revenues from sales to other telematics integrators, camera unit sales and sales to our contract electronic manufacturing customers.  As has been previously announced we took the strategic decision to exit from the contract electronic manufacturing activities undertaken at BOX Telematics.  The run out of this work extended into the first half of this year but is now virtually eliminated.

Total Product revenues amounted to £2.27m (2016: £3.49m) representing 15% of the Group total and a reduction of 35% on last year.

Change of Registered Office

The Group advises that its registered office, with effect from 24 November 2017, has been changed to Trakm8 Holdings plc, Roman Way, Roman Park, Coleshill, North Warwickshire, B46 1HG.

Board Changes

James Hedges resigned from the Board in August following over eight years as Finance Director of the Group.  This was as a result of the relocation of the Group Finance function to Coleshill where the Group has the manufacturing operations.  We thank James for the part he has played in the growth of the Group.

 

We were delighted to appoint Jon Furber as Group Finance Director during September 2017.

Strategy

The Group has been following the strategy outlined in the 2017 Annual Report.  Our focus is to provide ever more meaningful insights to our customers using the data generated by our installed devices so that they can run their operations more efficiently and safely.

We continue to seek to increase the number of installed devices reporting to our servers in order to generate long term, recurring revenues.  We will continue to own the majority of IP in our value chain and are investing heavily in our technology to ensure we remain at the leading edge of the telematics industry, seeking out complimentary acquisitions to enhance capabilities, where appropriate.

We continue to focus on streamlining the operations of the Group to further increase the efficiency of our operations, maintaining the already increased levels of engineering spend, whilst deploying increasing sales and marketing resources to drive growth.  During the year the remaining Finance function was relocated from Shaftesbury, Dorset to the centralised operations in Coleshill near Birmingham and today we have announced that the Head Office has relocated from Shaftesbury to Coleshill.    

Outlook

We anticipate a stronger second half as usual.  With our strong range of substantial new contracts in place, and as a result of increased sales and marketing activity, we have visibility to support our second half expectations.

The outcome for the full year is less dependent on securing contracts from new customers than in previous years.  The outcome is dependent on existing customer contracts where there is a level of uncertainty of end user demand.  The Board remains confident that the market expectations will be met for the full year.

We continue to believe that subsequent years will benefit from improved operational efficiency, investments in growth initiatives and the growth in the telematics market both in the UK and internationally to deliver long term value for shareholders.
