Operational Overview
· H1 2022 results:
o Revenues maintained despite challenging macroeconomic conditions
o Profit impacted by:
§ Lower software sales compared to prior period
§ Higher material costs
§ Exceptional costs from our strategic refocus and cost reduction programme
o Improved cash generation from operations despite losses
· Continuation of new contract wins:
o New telematics contract awards with Insurance customers
o Approximately 299,000 connections (September 2021: 255,000 connections), an increase of 44,000 connections (17%) in the last 12 months
· H2 and FY2024 outlook:
o Significant reduction in overhead costs in line with the Company's trading and strategy update announced on 14 September 2022
o Benefit of higher connected base increasing recurring service fee income
o Several new Insurance customers launching during H2 but mainly impacting revenues in FY2024 and beyond
o Large software contract renewal before the financial year end
Outlook
The Board is confident that the improved trading as a result of reduced costs, increased service fees and software contract license sales will ensure the Group meets current market expectations for revenues and adjusted profit.

Executive Chairman's Statement
I report Trakm8's results for the six months ended 30 September 2022.
Revenues
The first half of the financial year was in line with recent Company guidance. Revenues for the six months ended 30 September 2022 were similar to the corresponding period in the previous year at £9.01m.
There was a 26% increase in Insurance and Automotive revenues to £4.18m and a reduction of 15% in Fleet and Optimisation revenues to £4.83m
During the period, unit sales increased by 61% to 103,000, with Insurance unit sales increasing by 118% to 90,000 and Fleet unit sales decreasing by 9% to 8,000.
In addition, during the period, connections increased by 13% to 299,000 (31.3.2022: 264,000). Insurance & Automotive connections increased 16% to 225,000 (31.3.22: 193,000). With low attrition experienced, Fleet connections increased by 4% to 74,000 (31.3.22: 71,000).
Recurring revenues in the period increased over the previous year by 5% to £5.08m and represent 56% of Group revenues. In addition, the Group generated £0.17m of software revenues (H1 2020: £0.98m), which represented 2% of Group revenues. In line with the Company's announcement on 14 September 2022, the timing of contract renewals has resulted in the bulk of this year's software sales taking place in H2.
Costs
The Group has encountered a number of challenges as a result of the availability of production components during the period. Notwithstanding this, with our integrated engineering and manufacturing teams we have maintained supplies to customers without significant interruptions. The Board expects that supply chain constraints will significantly ease going forward. However, in order to achieve customer deliveries on time, considerable exceptional hardware costs of circa £0.21m were incurred by the Group during the period.
The Group's gross profit margin has reduced to 58% (2021: 65%). This is due to the higher hardware revenues as a percentage of sales and the reduction in software sales during the period.
Total overhead costs, excluding exceptional costs, increased by £0.84m to £6.10m (H1 2021: £5.26m). This is the result of reduced furlough support of £0.39m, a £0.28m increase in real estate and IT costs and a £0.07m increase in non-payroll sales & marketing spend. Underlying payroll costs further reduced overall by £0.01m despite inflationary pressures.
Exceptional costs increased during the period to £1.32m. This reflects £0.90m of cost associated with the strategic refocus, £0.21m in additional costs to mitigate the impact of post Covid-19 electronic component supply chain challenges and £0.21m of other costs.
Towards the end of the period, Trakm8 implemented a very substantial reduction in headcount and overhead costs, which is expected to result in a minimum of £2.4m annualised reduction in operating costs. This is associated with the concentration on our more successful markets and products. This action is largely now complete from which the trading performance should benefit going forward.
Results
The Group generated an adjusted loss of £1.08m (2021: profit £0.44m), loss before tax of £2.41m (2021: profit £0.05m) and loss after tax of £1.77m (2021: £0.27m).
Financial position
Cash generation from operating activities was £1.44m (H1 2021: £0.87m). As at 30 September 2022, the Group had net bank debt, excluding the Convertible Loan Note and the impact of the IFRS16 lease liability, of £4.67m (£7.65m including the Convertible Loan Note and IFRS 16 lease liability) which is £0.73m less than as at 31 March 2022. As at 30 September 2022, the Group had £1.17m of cash on hand and a further £0.50m of available funds under an overdraft facility. In September 2022, the Group completed a funding round by the issue of £1.58m of Convertible Loan Notes.
The overall cash inflow for the period was £0.29m (H1 2021: outflow of £1.48m).
Post period end, the Group completed the HMRC repayment schedule ahead of time, thus eliminating the outstanding liability of £0.9m as at 31 March 2022.
Strategy and Outlook
The Group has been following the strategy outlined in the Group's 2022 Annual Report and as subsequently modified by the Group's trading update on 14 September 2022. Our focus is to provide ever more meaningful insights to our customers using the data generated by our installed devices and other connections in order to ensure that they can run their operations more efficiently and safely. We have concentrated our focus on our most successful business revenue streams.
Our primary strategy going forward is the growth of our business through more connections, increased device sales and higher service fees. Due to the high level of new contract wins across the business and reduced rates of attrition in Fleet, the number of connections has increased overall by 17.2% in the past 12 months and by 13.2% in past six months. The number of devices sold by the Group has increased by 61% to 103,000 (H1 2021: 64,000). Our focus going forward will be on the Insurance and Automotive space, and to build our connected vehicle base along with Enterprise Fleet customers.
Trakm8 has focused on delivering market leading technology and ensuring that the solutions are generating the best possible ROIs for our customers. To this point, we have maintained the levels of expenditure on R&D. We continue to own the majority of IP in our value chain. We have been building out greater functionality of existing solutions rather than a wider range and have moved out of the initial development phase of the Insight platform into one of maturity. We have updated all our devices to utilise the latest technology, accelerated by the supply constraints of previous components. As a result, going forward we will meet our objectives of remaining a leading-edge technology Company but at a substantially lower investment cost.
We are also striving to improve the efficiencies of our business in every possible way. We have sought to minimise the impact of salary inflation and higher marketing costs and, towards the end of the period end, undertaken a very significant reduction in overhead costs as we focus our activities on our narrower objectives. This should benefit the Group in the second half of this year and on into future years.
The Group is pleased that it will have several new Insurance customers launching during the second half of this financial year, albeit the financial impact of these will mainly occur in FY2024 and beyond. In addition, the Board is hopeful of a successful outcome to a large software contract renewal scheduled before the financial year end.
Unaudited management accounts for October and November show a substantial improvement in profitability as a result of the actions taken by the Group. We expect this to continue through the remainder of this and next year.

1. Basis of preparation |
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
The Group's interim results for the 6 months to 30 September 2022 (prior year 30 September 2021) were approved by the Board of Directors on 7 December 2022. |
|||||||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As permitted this Interim Report has been prepared in accordance with UK AIM Rules for Companies and not in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" and therefore is not fully in compliance with IFRS. |

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim financial statement are the same as those set out in the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Going concern |
|
|
|
|
|

|
The consolidated interim financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. The directors report that, having reviewed current performance and projections of its working capital and long term funding requirements, including assessments against the covenants agreed with our bank and downward sensitivity analysis, they are satisfied that the Group has sufficient resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future, a period of not less than 12 months from the date of this report. Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the condensed financial statements. |
