Chairman's Statement

 

The first six months of this financial year have continued the positive trends established last year.

 

Revenues in the period increased to £1.72m (2009: £1.71m) and although this a relatively modest increase, it marks the return to revenue growth. We have continued to focus on higher margin products and customers which has resulted in an increase in profit before tax to £0.16m (2009: profit £0.10m).

 

The acquisition of the Vincotech telematics products on 23 September 2010 has expanded the portfolio of hardware options and brought several new customers to the Company.

 

Operational Review

During the period the Group started to deliver units as part of the St Gobain contract (announced in June 2010) together with substantial bespoke system development work. There has also been a continued expansion of the customer base as a greater emphasis on marketing which has started to produce benefits.

 

Trakm8 has continued to make good progress in increasing the number of units in service operating on the Trakm8 Swift platform. The trend of increasing the recurring revenues from the installed base has been most positive. At the end of the period the monthly recurring revenue was 57% of the operating costs of the business up from 43% at the end of September 2009. This is the bedrock of securing the long term profitability of the Group.

 

Trakm8 has also broadened the range and quality of customers purchasing the hardware products only. Trakm8 is also capitalising on its' ability to provide engineering services alongside the products and this customer specific engineering provision is proving to be greatly appreciated.

 

The Group has continued to invest heavily in technology developments in server side solutions, onboard CANbus, emissions and fuel economy reporting and mapping software. Trakm8 has also made excellent progress on the development of the next generation hardware platform - the T8. The T8 has increased functionality enabling Trakm8 to provide solutions to the most demanding of applications. Considerable progress has also been made on the government funded projects. These projects are jointly funded and have applications that benefit the long term product portfolio of the Group.

 

Outlook

The Trakm8 Group is confident that the business is beginning to deliver the potential of the excellent people, products and services within the business. The increased product portfolio from both the Vincotech product line and the new Trakm8 T8 provides an excellent basis for expansion both geographically and in complexity of solutions.

 

Innovative developments in new cost effective server side applications will be launched over the coming months and much is expected of these.

 

Recent order entry and increase in the pipeline for both large and small customers gives confidence that revenues and profits will continue to increase. Trakm8 is also well positioned to benefit from the demand for increasingly complex fleet management solutions.
