CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
I am pleased to report that the results for the Group have shown strong positive trends, with trading during this financial year continuing the progress of 2009/10 along with confirmation of a return to growth. Revenues for the year increased 22% to £4.19m (2010: £3.43m) and together with the continued focus on higher margin products and customers this resulted in an increase of 23% in profit before tax to £0.32m (2010: £0.26m).
Another highlight was our positive cash generation from trading and as a result our cash position at the year-end increased by £0.42m to £1.12m (2010: £0.69m). This was a particularly pleasing result given the continuing difficult economic climate and global financial uncertainties.
During the year we announced two major contract awards with Jewson Ltd (and its sister brands) and also the Automobile Association ("AA"). These two opportunities have reinforced Trakm8 as having the technology, expertise and infrastructure to secure and maintain large volume contracts.
Operational Review
Trakm8 has enjoyed a significant improvement in sales of hardware units and complete telematics systems, which has resulted in strong revenue growth for the year. We have continued to offer 'hardware only' solutions to a variety of customers in the UK and overseas but increasingly we are seeing more accounts taking our full range of Trakm8 SWIFT telematics services. This has generated an 82% increase in our Trakm8 SWIFT revenues. By March 2011 we had over 25,000 units using the Trakm8 SWIFT service worldwide.
This expansion has increased the base of recurring monthly revenues, which then provides improved security and predictability of the Group's future revenues. At the end of the financial year the monthly recurring revenue amounted to 61.7% of underlying overheads up from 49.8% at the end of March 2010.
During the year our development teams in the UK and Prague completed two major rollouts of Trakm8's integrated telematics order scheduling and despatch system which reinforces our continuing drive for efficiency savings. In addition, Trakm8 was awarded a significant Framework Agreement with the AA which was announced in January 2011. This was an excellent achievement following a competitive tender process. During March and April 2011 the majority of AA Road Side Assistance vehicles were fitted with our latest T8 telematics device.
During the year Trakm8 launched the new T8 telematics hardware which is being manufactured in the UK by Omitec Limited, our partner on the Trusted Road Users Emissions Profiling Government grant project. This development coincided with our long term hardware supplier in Germany, Vincotech Gmbh, announcing that they were withdrawing from the manufacture of telematics products. The strategic decision to move the manufacturing from Germany to the UK has led to savings in our production and assembly team and has enabled the Group to have complete control over changes and improvements to existing and new hardware designs.
We have also strengthened our customer application engineer and support teams to ensure that we can continue to improve our levels of customer support and service delivery. This is particularly important as we expand our product development and Trakm8 SWIFT service solutions to meet the complex data integration and functionality requirements of our larger customers.
The Group's Government funded projects have been substantially completed, providing the dual benefits of Technology Strategy Board matched funding of company development expenditure in combination with significantly improved core product functionality.
Our development teams successfully launched the next generation of hardware (T8) in September 2010. This design builds on the success and reliability of the T6 and adds new features such as internal GSM antenna, accelerometer and lower utilisation of power. It has been very well received by customers and has provided a seamless upgrade for existing users of the T6.
The Group has continued to invest heavily in technology developments in server side solutions, on-board CAN-bus, and logistics/mapping software. Of particular interest is an additional suite of applications for optimising route planning and fuel usage. This new product was launched towards the end of the year with a very good initial response from customers. We continue to be committed to owning the intellectual property throughout the value chain and the extensions of the server side applications continues this trend.
In September 2010 we announced the acquisition of the telematics assets of Vincotech Gmbh. This included an exciting new product designed with the very latest GPS microchip technology providing an unprecedented level of performance in asset tracking. It has exceptionally low power usage and has a ruggedized waterproof casing. Trakm8 now has a wide range of hardware solutions that fulfil all parts of the market demand and these can be supplied with and without firmware.
Outlook
The Board is confident that the revenue and profitability growth of the Group can be continued over the next 12 months.
Trakm8 solutions are expected to increase market penetration both in the large fleet market and the SME space. The installed base and its consequent recurring revenues are expected to continue to increase with the monthly recurring income increasing as a percentage of our underlying overheads.
With the wider opportunities for hardware only sales provided by having lower cost products the Group is confident that the volume of units sold will increase strongly in the coming year. This will benefit not only the sales and profitability directly but will also help reduce product manufacturing costs in the longer term.
We believe that the financial justification of implementing telematics based fleet management solutions is now compelling. Trakm8 has positioned itself to benefit from the situation with exceptional cost effective integrated solutions. To protect the technical superiority of our products and services and to ensure the lowest possible cost base, we will continue to expand the engineering and professional services teams.
Trakm8's primary focus is to continue to drive growth in revenues and profitability and therefore this will be a primary use for cash generated by operations. However we have been very successful in building our cash reserves and we are keen to examine all other expansion options including acquisitions to enable us to achieve our growth plans. The telematics market in the UK remains very fragmented and the Group is in a strong position to benefit when favourable opportunities arise.
Finally, I would like to thank all the Trakm8 staff for their tremendous hard work over the past twelve months.

The Group provides indemnity cover for the Directors.
SUPPLIERS PAYMENT POLICY
It is the Group's policy to establish payment terms with suppliers and to adhere to those terms, provided that the goods and services are in accordance with the agreed terms and conditions. Trade payables for the parent company at the year end represented 49 days of purchases (2010: 56 days).
EMPLOYMENT POLICY
During the year, the Group has consulted with employees in matters likely to affect their interests and is committed to involving them in the performance and development of the Group.
DISABLED EMPLOYEES
The Group gives full consideration to applications for employment from disabled persons where the requirements of the job can be adequately fulfilled by a disabled person.
Should existing employees become disabled, it is the Group's policy wherever practicable to provide continuing employment under normal terms and conditions and to provide training, career development and promotion to such employees as appropriate.
PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The following are identified as the principle risks and uncertainties facing the Group:-
Technology risk - The Group invests in research and development to enable the delivery of new and enhanced products and services.
Liquidity risk - The Group operates a long-term business, and its policy is to finance it primarily with equity and short to medium-term borrowings. Short-term flexibility is achieved by cash balances and overdraft facilities.
Credit risk - The Group aims to minimise its exposure to credit risk through a mixture of credit insurance, credit limits and credit checks on new customers.
Foreign currency risk - Historically the Group has not used hedging instruments to minimise currency risk as the exposure is limited. If foreign currency exposure increases, the use of foreign currency hedging instruments will be reviewed as necessary.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare group and company financial statements for each financial year. The directors are required by the AIM Rules of the London Stock Exchange to prepare group financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as adopted by the European Union ("EU") and have elected under company law to prepare the company financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law).
The Group financial statements are required by law and IFRS adopted by the EU to present fairly the financial position and performance of the Group; the Companies Act 2006 provides in relation to such financial statements that references in the relevant part of that Act to financial statements giving a true and fair view are references to their achieving a fair presentation.
Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and the Company and of the profit or loss of the Group for that period.
In preparing each of the Group and Company financial statements, the Directors are required to:
a. select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
b. make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
c. for the group financial statements, state whether they have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs adopted by the EU and for the company financial statements state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the Group and Company financial statements;
d. prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group and the Company will continue in business.
The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Group's and the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Group and the Company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Trakm8 Holdings PLC website.
Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF TRAKM8 HOLDINGS PLC
We have audited the financial statements of Trakm8 Holdings PLC which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, the Parent Company Balance Sheet and the related Notes. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in the preparation of the Group financial statements is applicable law and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in the preparation of the Parent Company financial statements is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
This report is made solely to the Company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
As more fully explained in the Directors' Responsibilities Statement set out on page 12, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board's (APB's) Ethical Standards for Auditors.
Scope of the audit of the financial statements
A description of the scope of an audit of financial statements is provided on the APB's website at www.frc.org.uk/apb/scope/private.cfm.
In our opinion
· the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of the Group's and of the Parent Company's affairs as at 31 March 2011 and of the Group's profit for the year then ended;
· the Group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union;
· the Parent Company financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
· the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Opinion on other matter prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion the information given in the Directors' Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
· adequate accounting records have not been kept by the Parent Company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
· the Parent Company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
· certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
· we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
for the year ended 31 March 2011
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Trakm8 Holdings PLC is a public limited company ("Company") incorporated in the United Kingdom (registration number 05452547). The Company is domiciled in the United Kingdom and its registered address is Lydden House, Wincombe Business Park, Shaftesbury, Dorset, SP7 9QJ. The Company's Ordinary Shares are traded on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange.
The Group's principal activity is the manufacture, marketing and distribution of vehicle telematics equipment and services. The Company's principal activity is to act as a holding company for its subsidiaries.
2. AUTHORISATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH IFRS
The Group's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") interpretations as endorsed by the European Union, and with those parts of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS.
3. BASIS OF PREPARATION
The accounting policies set out in note 4 have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.
These financial statements are presented in sterling as that is considered to be the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates. This decision was based on the Group's workforce being based in the UK and that sterling is the currency in which management reporting and decision making is based.
4. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements. If in the future such estimates and assumptions which are based on management's best judgement at the date of the financial statements, deviate from the actual circumstances, the original estimates and assumptions will be modified as appropriate in the year in which the circumstances change. Where necessary, the comparatives have been reclassified or extended from the previously reported results to take into account presentational changes.
4. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries) made up to 31 March each year. Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an investee entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
The trading results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.
All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenditure are eliminated on consolidation.
The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by the Group. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are initially measured at fair value at the acquisition date irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. The excess of cost of acquisition over the fair values of the Group's share of identifiable net assets acquired is recognised as goodwill. Any deficiency of the cost of acquisition below the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired (i.e. discount on acquisition) is recognised directly in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used into line with those used by other members of the Group.
The Group has applied the requirements of IFRS 2 Share-based Payment. In accordance with the transitional provisions, IFRS 2 has been applied to all grants of equity instruments after 7 November 2002 that were unvested as of 1 April 2006.
The Group issues equity-settled share-based payments to certain employees. Equity-settled share-based payments are measured at fair value at the date of grant. The fair value determined at the grant date of equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group's estimate of shares that will eventually vest.
The fair value is measured by use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management's best estimate, for the effect of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest.
4. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Group's balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Trade receivables
Trade receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at their amortised cost using the effective interest method less any provision for impairment. A provision for impairment is made where there is objective evidence, (including customers with financial difficulties or in default on payments), that amounts will not be recovered in accordance with original terms of the agreement. A provision for impairment is established when the carrying value of the receivable exceeds the present value of the future cash flow discounted using the original effective interest rate. The carrying value of the receivable is reduced through the use of an allowance account and any impairment loss is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. For the purposes of the Cash Flow Statement, cash and cash equivalents includes bank overdrafts.
Financial liabilities and equity
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities.
Bank borrowings
Interest-bearing bank loans and overdrafts are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Finance charges, including premiums payable on settlement or redemption, are accounted for on an accruals basis and are added to the carrying amount of the instrument to the extent that they are not settled in the period in which they arise.
Trade payables
Trade payables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
GOODWILL
Goodwill arising on consolidation is recorded as an intangible asset and is the surplus of the cost of acquisition over the Group's interest in the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is reviewed annually for impairment. Any impairment identified as a result of the review is charged in the Statement of Comprehensive Income. Negative goodwill is written off in the year in which it arises.
On disposal of a subsidiary, associate or jointly controlled entity, the attributable amount of goodwill is included in the determination of the profit or loss on disposal.
4. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
INTANGIBLE ASSETS OTHER THAN GOODWILL
An intangible asset, which is an identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance, is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the expected future economic benefits attributable to the asset will flow to the Group and that its cost can be measured reliably. Such intangible assets are carried at cost less amortisation. Amortisation is charged to 'Administrative expenses' in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight line basis over the intangible assets' useful economic life (1-10 years).
Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.
Development expenditure is capitalised as an intangible asset only if the following conditions are met:
· an asset is created that can be identified;
· it is probable that the asset created will generate future economic benefit;
· the development cost of the asset can be measured reliably;
· it meets the Group's criteria for technical and commercial feasibility; and
· sufficient resources are available to meet the development to either sell or use as an asset.
Development expenditure thus capitalised is amortised on a straight-line basis over its useful life. Where the criteria are not met, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the 'Administrative expenses' line of the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less any subsequent accumulated depreciation or impairment losses. With the exception of freehold buildings held at 31 March 2006 (the date of transition to IFRS), cost represents purchase price together with any incidental costs to acquisition. As permitted by IFRS 1, the cost of freehold buildings at 31 March 2006 represents deemed cost, being the market value of the property for existing use at that date.
Depreciation is provided on all property, plant and equipment, other than freehold land, at rates calculated to write each asset down to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life, as follows:
Buildings |
2% |
straight line |
Furniture, fixtures and equipment |
25% |
reducing balance |
Computer equipment |
33% |
straight line |
Assets held under finance leases or hire purchase arrangements are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned assets or, where shorter, over the term of the relevant agreement.
The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each balance sheet date and adjusted if appropriate. The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
4. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. In general cost is determined on a first in first out basis and includes all direct expenditure and production overheads based on a normal level of activity. Net realisable value is the price at which the stocks can be sold in the normal course of business after allowing for the costs of realisation and where appropriate for the costs of conversion from its existing state to a finished condition. Provision is made for obsolete, slow moving and defective stocks.
LEASES
Assets held under finance leases, which are leases where substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset have been transferred to the Group, are capitalised in the balance sheet and depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or their useful lives. The asset is recorded at the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease. The capital elements of future obligations under finance leases are included in liabilities in the balance sheet and analysed between current and non-current amounts. The interest elements of future obligations under finance leases are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income over the periods of the leases and represent a constant proportion of the balance of capital repayments outstanding in accordance with the effective interest rate method.
Leases where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases. The cost of operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) is charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight line basis over the periods of the leases.
FOREIGN CURRENCIES
Foreign currency assets and liabilities are converted to sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the end of the financial year. Transactions in foreign currencies are converted to sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the transaction date. All of the resulting exchange differences are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income as they arise.
For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group's foreign operations are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising are classified as equity and transferred to the Group's reserves. Such translation differences are recognised as income or expense in the period in which the operation is disposed of.
4. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
TAXATION
The tax expense represents the sum of the current tax expense and deferred tax expense.
The tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from net profit as reported in the Statement of Comprehensive Income because it excludes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group's liability for current tax is calculated by using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised.
Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability is settled based upon tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue represents the total of amounts receivable for goods and services provided excluding value added tax. Revenue is recognised on the delivery of the goods to the customer. Where a service is provided covering a future period the applicable revenue is shown as Deferred Income under Current Liabilities.
WARRANTY CLAIMS
Provision is made for liabilities arising in respect of expected warranty claims.
GOVERNMENT GRANTS
Government grants towards research and development projects are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs and are included within Other Income.
4. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
SEGMENTAL REPORTING
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Board of Directors.
EQUITY
Equity comprises the following:
- Share capital represents the nominal value of equity shares.
- Share premium represents the excess over nominal value of the fair value of consideration received for equity shares, net of expenses of the share issue.
- Shares to be issued represents the equity element of deferred consideration arising on business combinations.
- Merger reserve represents the excess over nominal value of the fair value of consideration received for equity shares issued on reverse acquisition of subsidiaries, net of expenses of the share issue prior to the date of transition to IFRS.
- Translation reserve represents cumulative foreign exchange gains and losses on retranslation of overseas operations.
- Retained earnings represents retained losses.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
Critical judgements in applying the Group's accounting policies
In the process of applying the Group's accounting policies, which are described in note 4, management has made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements (apart from those involving estimations, which are dealt with below).
Valuation of intellectual property
In assessing the fair value of the intellectual property, management have considered the underlying value of the income streams. Attention has been paid to the potential introduction of new products and services and the return anticipated from these and existing product sales. The Directors believe that the fair value of the intellectual property is both appropriate and a realistic assessment of its long term value to the Group.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Recoverability of internally-generated intangible asset
During the year, management reconsidered the recoverability of its internally generated intangible asset which is included in the balance sheet at £69,895. The costs relate to the development of the Group's portfolio of hardware and software products and management continue to believe that the anticipated revenues will enable the carrying amount to be recovered in full. Assumptions have been made on the number of years over which the costs will be recovered based on management's best expectations and these could turn out to be longer or shorter although any subsequent adjustment is not expected to be material.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY (continued)
Recoverability of trade debtors
The withdrawal or reduction of credit facilities from Banks and leasing companies is affecting a wide range of businesses. Management are particularly conscious of the financial weakness of some companies and is closely monitoring its outstanding debtor book in order to minimise the risk associated with future bad debts. Weekly cash receipts are analysed and future supplies are stopped if accounts remain overdue. An increasing number of customers taking the Group's services pay by direct debit and this is reducing the Group's exposure to the non-recoverability of trade debtors in the future.
6. SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS
The format of segmental reporting is based on the Group's management and internal reporting of the segments below which carry different risks and rewards and are used to make strategic decisions. Telematics is the sale of hardware through the Group's distributors. Trakm8 SWIFT represents the sale of the Group's full vehicle telematics service direct to customers. Development and other services comprises bespoke professional services and mapping solutions.
The Board review the revenue results by segment and the gross margin. Cost of sales comprise hardware costs and have been allocated to the segments based on the number of units sold. Administration costs and assets and liabilities are not separated out by segment.

The weighted average exercise price of share options outstanding as at 31 March 2011 was 8.9 pence.
The exercise of all share options is the closing market price on the day of grant. A vesting period of 1 or 2 years is applicable according to the terms of each scheme.
The fair value of the equity settled share options granted is estimated as at the date of grant using the Black Scholes option pricing model taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. The volatility has been based on historic share prices and the dividend yield has been assumed to be 0% for all schemes.
The Group charged £9,921 to the Statement of Comprehensive Income in respect of Share-Based Payments for the financial year ended 31 March 2011 (2010: £5,757).

25. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Details of the remuneration of the directors, who are the key management personnel of the Group, are disclosed in the Directors' report.
J Watkins is a Director and shareholder of Omitec Group Limited. Omitec Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of Omitec Group Limited and is a Partner of Trakm8 Limited working on the Trusted Road Usage Emissions Profiling Government Project for the Technology Strategy Board.
It was announced on 21 June 2010 that a manufacturing agreement had been signed with Omitec for the production of the new T8 telematics platform. On 25 February 2011 it was announced that a further manufacturing agreement had been entered into with Omitec for the production of the new T8 Mini telematics hardware. During the year ended 31 March 2011 a total of £579,339 was invoiced to Trakm8 Limited by Omitec Limited (2010: £21,926) and Trakm8 Limited invoiced Omitec Limited £10,668 (2010: £24,973). The net balance due on 31 March 2011 from Trakm8 Limited to Omitec Limited was £68,817 (2010: £2,609).
26. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial risk factors
The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Where appropriate, the Group seeks to mitigate potential adverse effects on its financial performance.
Liquidity risk
The Group's objective is to maintain a balance between continuity and flexibility of funding through the use of borrowings and financial assets with a range of maturities. Borrowing facilities are monitored against the Group's forecast requirements and it is the Group's policy to mitigate the risk by maintaining undrawn overdraft facilities and cash reserves. The bank overdraft facility is £250,000 and as at 31 March 2011 this facility was not being utilised.
Credit risk
The Group's principal financial assets are bank balances, cash and trade and other receivables. The Group's credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade receivables and the Group attaches considerable importance to the collection and management of trade receivables. The Group minimises its credit risk through the application of appropriate credit limits to customers based on an assessment of net worth and trading history with the Group. Standard credit terms are net 30 days from date of invoice. Overdue trade receivables are managed through a phased escalation culminating in legal action.
The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit-ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies.
26. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (continued)
Significant accounting policies
Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expense are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 4 to the financial statements.
Capital risk management
The Group's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group's ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
Consistent with others in the industry, the Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. This ratio is calculated as debt divided by total capital. Debt is calculated as total borrowings including "current and non-current borrowings" as shown in the consolidated balance sheet. Total capital is calculated as "equity" as shown in the consolidated balance sheet plus debt.
The Group's strategy has been to reduce gearing and to increase cash and cash equivalents. This has been successfully achieved through the profits generated during the year.

NOTES TO THE PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 31 March 2011
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention in accordance with the applicable accounting standards.
The company has applied the requirements of FRS 20 Share-based Payments. In accordance with the transitional provisions, FRS 20 has been applied to all grants of equity instruments after 7 November 2002 that were unvested as of 1 April 2006.
The Company issues equity-settled share-based payments to certain employees. Equity-settled share-based payments are measured at fair value at the date of grant. The fair value determined at the grant date of equity-settled share-based payments is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Company's estimate of shares that will eventually vest.
The fair value is measured by use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected life used in the model has been adjusted, based on management's best estimate, for the effect of non-transferability, exercise restrictions, and behavioural considerations. No expense is recognised for awards that do not ultimately vest.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. Instruments issued by the Company are recorded at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
INVESTMENTS
Fixed asset investments are stated at cost less impairment against the cost of investments. The carrying values of investments in subsidiaries are reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.
FOREIGN CURRENCIES
Foreign currency assets and liabilities are converted to sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the end of the financial year. Transactions in foreign currencies are converted to sterling at the rates of exchange ruling at the transaction date. All of the resulting exchange differences are recognised in the profit and loss account as they arise.
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
DEFERRED TAXATION
Provision is made for deferred taxation in respect of all material timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date. Timing differences represent differences between gains and losses recognised for tax purposes in periods different from those in which they are recognised in the financial statements. No deferred tax is recognised on permanent differences between the Company's taxable gains and losses and its results as stated in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included without discounting.
PRIOR YEAR ADJUSTMENT
During the year ended 31 March 2010 the Intellectual Property owned by the subsidiary Interactive Projects Ltd ('IPL') was transferred at cost to the subsidiary Trakm8 Limited. The cost of the Intellectual Property was calculated by reference to the original cost to IPL which after amortisation was £4,800. The Directors consider that this cost did not reflect the cost to the Group where the Intellectual Property was purchased for £600,000 as part of the assets held within IPL. In addition the transfer did not reflect the fall in the value of the investment in IPL resulting from the transfer. The Balance Sheet for the year ended 31 March 2010 has been restated to reflect the transfer of the value of the Intellectual Property in the Group accounts at 31 March 2010 of £359,200. The value of the investment in IPL at 31 March 2010 has also been reduced by £294,201 to the value of the net assets that remained in IPL at 31 March 2010. The amount due to the Company has been increased by £359,200 to reflect the transfer of the Intellectual Property at cost to the Group. The restatement has had an effect of an increase of £60,199 in net profit for the year ended 31 March 2010 and net assets at 31 March 2010. The prior period adjustment did not have any impact on taxation for the year.
2. PROFIT AND LOSS ACCOUNT
As permitted by Section 408 of the Companies Act 2006, the profit and loss account of the Company is not presented as part of these financial statements.
The loss after tax for the year in the Company is £10,528 (2010: profit £285,868).
