The Group strategy remains to provide machine to machine (“M2M”) solutions and products that grow the installed base of connections with service revenues, thus ensuring predictable revenues and cash flows. Solutions The Group owns the IP used to develop its solutions, and this ownership includes the whole supply chain process, including both the engineering and the manufacturing of the hardware from the Coleshill site. The solutions have been developed to cater for a variety of markets including Automotive, Plant, and Insurance, as well as the core Fleet Management. Whilst there are continual developments to the flagship SWIFT 6 software, the next financial year will see major development into the seventh generation which will continue to push the boundaries of vehicle tracking as well as the additional benefits of enhanced vehicle health monitoring and First Notification of Loss (FNOL). 6 It is from the ongoing development of these solutions based on our Fleet Management software that Trakm8 continues to grow its service fees, thus ensuring the predictable revenue as mentioned before. Trakm8 Group’s Engineering Services continue to support the business by tailoring the core solutions for corporate customers. Examples over the last 12 months include an extension to the Fleet Management system supplied to Saint Gobain, development of a bespoke logistics platform to new customer, Downtons, and enhancements to the Insurance Solution for Young Marmalade. Products The design and development of our telematics hardware units continues to be driven in house which enables Trakm8 to respond quickly to market demands. Customers are frequently invited to the facility to see where the solutions and products are developed, manufactured and shipped. Insurance Research and Development Automotive Products and Solutions Plant Trakm8 predominantly sells turnkey solutions to customers, but the Group also manufactures hardware for those who wish to integrate these goods into their own systems. The hardware is sold globally to customers across the commercial fleet and consumer telematics sectors. There is ongoing work into the development of the expansion of the newer T10 range to replace the older generation of products, and this will bring all of the manufacturing of Trakm8 Group’s telematics devices in house. Next generation T10 hardware The Manufacturing Services business acquired with the purchase of Box Telematics in October 2013 gives the Group complete control over the hardware offered to customers. In the FY2014/15 BOX manufactured over £1.8m worth of goods for Trakm8 customers. In the Spring of 2015, the Group was awarded the Made in Britain accreditation marque which is now applied to many of its products, giving customers heightened trust in the manufacturing it offers. You Drive. We think. Research and Development The Group invests heavily into the development of both the next generation of solutions and additional lines to the portfolio. As part of this investment, there is an in house team of Big Data research scientists focussing on utilising mathematical data mining techniques (Big Data) to gain further insights into vehicle telematics data. The scientists study information such as vehicle CANBus data and raw sensor information from the 2 billion miles worth of data the Group collects annually. It can then provide accurate indications of vehicle prognostics and diagnostics including crash analysis, battery health monitoring, state of health, prediction of vehicle failures and driver behaviour analysis. These all work together to develop the group’s solutions for reducing insurance risk and improving driving efficiency. The team has worked towards developing an accurate algorithm to identify a potential insurance loss event. This has included many months of development of a classifier that can determine between potholes and genuine accidents. Alongside this, the battery health monitoring algorithm has also been greatly enhanced, meaning Trakm8 can offer customers a solution that gives a higher prevention rate of roadside breakdowns due to battery failure. Company Number 05452547 7 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Executive Chairman’s Statement John Watkins Executive Chairman Introduction I am pleased to report on another excellent year for Trakm8 with our results being ahead of expectations. Our strategy of increasing the numbers of units reporting to our servers is proving very successful. Strong growth in installed units and the consequent service revenues has been at the core of significantly improved financial results. As part of the strategy to develop the Group organically, Trakm8 has successfully introduced a number of new products and software solutions that have been well received by the market. These products and solutions are distributed by our Trakm8 and BOX brands into all market segments. The Group now has market leading Fleet Management solutions and has introduced the latest in Insurance risk, First Notification of Loss (“FNOL”) and crash reconstruction software. The Group has also established market leading automotive vehicle diagnostic expertise for over-the-air vehicle condition monitoring and service predictions. The strength of the Trakm8 financial model is that it delivers very strong cash generation. Our operating cash flow before movement in working capital for the year was £2.60m (2014: £0.80m), and the year-end cash balance was £3.4m. Organic revenue growth at Trakm8 was 73% supplemented by a full 12 months of trading in BOX Telematics Ltd (“BOX”). The year saw significant investment by the Group in improving many elements of the operations of the businesses. Most of the internal activities were consolidated to minimise costs and maximise effectiveness. A major IT infrastructure investment improved our ERP, CRM and QA processes. A second new assembly line for electronic PCB assembly was purchased in anticipation of the higher levels of demand for our hardware devices. 8 Due to higher margins than anticipated when we issued our trading statement in April 2015 we have reported a slightly higher than expected pre tax profit of £1.7m and which compares to last year’s result of £0.40m. Board Changes and Post Year End Events Following the year end we decided to strengthen the Board in line with the rapid growth of the Group. We were delighted to welcome Bill Duffy to the Board as the second Independent Non-Executive Director. Bill brings a wealth of experience and expertise. We also decided Sean Morris Group Engineering Director and Mark Watkins Group Operations Director should join the Board. These appointments are expected to enhance our corporate governance and ensure we have the management team to implement our growth plans and integrate acquisitions successfully. We also announced that we have recently completed the acquisition of the trade and assets of DCS. This business trades predominantly as RoadHawk™ supplying camera systems into the vehicle market. The integration of camera technology into telematics based fleet and insurance solutions represent real opportunities for future growth. You Drive. We think. Operational Review Trakm8’s core activity is the provision of integrated fleet management and insurance telematics based services. Trakm8 also undertakes bespoke development and integration of our data into the customer’s own Management Information systems. Customers include Direct Line Insurance, the AA, E.ON and Saint-Gobain Group. BOX was purchased in October 2013 and the business has been successfully integrated into the Trakm8 Group. Our Development, Customer services, Technical support and Finance teams have been combined for both companies and hardware and software platforms are largely consolidated. Following the integration of BOX the Group now accounts for all its trading in the single integrated telematics technology segment. We continue to report the revenues in a number of streams. Revenues at Trakm8 increased by 73% to £9.3m and this was supplemented by £8.6m of revenues from the full year contribution from BOX. In addition BOX supplied £1.8m of telematics devices to Trakm8. The Group gross margin percentage was 45.2% for the year (2014: 57.2%). This drop was due to the inclusion of a full year of BOX trading which has lower margin contract manufacturing revenues. In addition we have reanalysed sim costs to be part of our cost of sales. Adjusted Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation and share based payments (“Adjusted EBITDA”) increased to £2.6m (2014: £1.2m). The success in both Fleet Management and Insurance solutions during the period has increased the numbers of units reporting to our servers to over 102,000. The recurring revenues amounted to an annualised £7.5m. This represents an increase of 65% over the previous year end. Significantly the March recurring revenue also exceeded the Group underlying overheads in the month for the first time in the Group’s history. Company Number 05452547 9 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Executive Chairman’s Statement (continued) We have broadened the customer base both in the UK and internationally. Significant contract wins with SAGA in Norway, Downton, Saint-Gobain and Marmalade were announced along with a wide range of smaller orders. A significant part of our engineering effort is directed towards the use of the data we generate to create powerful algorithms for the prediction of risk, vehicle service requirements including battery status, and crash event identification (FNOL). Sales of hardware as discrete devices were 12% lower at Trakm8 but were supplemented with £6.1m from a full 12 months trading at BOX. The largest revenue generator in this segment is the JCB Live Link telematics device. Sales of T10 hardware extended the number of clients buying telematics devices. We have employed mathematicians to help us analyse our Big Data and we anticipate substantial benefits as we seek to monetise the value and analysis of this asset over the coming years. We believe that Trakm8 is establishing a market leading position in this field. Improved manufacturing capacity and quality was introduced early in the financial year enabling a higher output to be achieved. As a result over 100,000 telematics devices were built during the period. Whilst the sales of hardware to third party integrators helps us to ensure our manufactured cost of products are as low as can be achieved, these revenues are at lower margins and have no on-going recurring revenues. During the year the Company significantly expanded its engineering resources including a new leadership team. It has delivered excellent product derivatives of the T10, Swift and Insurance solutions. This, along with the emphasis we place on automotive expertise, gives us a unique capability when compared to our conventional competitors. We have found that skills and features developed for the insurance sector once integrated into the fleet management solutions have expanded the customer base as a result. We have also expanded our sales team to support the company’s growing customer base. Particular focus has been given to build a senior corporate sales team focussing on major clients. 10 It is pleasing to report that our start-up sales activity in Prague is now self-funding and further expansion of the sales and support team is planned to grow revenues in the region. At the time of our Interim Statement we announced we had a record number of opportunities in our sales pipeline and it was pleasing to bring a number of these to a positive conclusion. Most of these did not impact the results during the period significantly, but are expected to benefit the new financial year. We have continued to build the sales pipeline and remain confident that many of these opportunities will also be secured over the next twelve months. We continue to have a large number of trials in progress. Trakm8 also undertakes bespoke software development for customers. The customer specific application engineering has been a major feature of the product development team as larger customers have demanded their particular requirements. These in turn help to improve our core products. A number of projects this year were associated with several customers in the UK, Europe and USA. The largest project was for the Direct Line Group You Drive. We think. Outlook The Board is confident that our investments in acquisitions, operational efficiency improvements, engineering resources, new products and additional sales resources together with the benefit of new contract wins will positively impact the new financial year and beyond. Overall the first three months of trading are ahead of last year and we now expect to modestly exceed previous market expectations for the year ending 31 March 2016. The acquisition of the trade and assets of DCS brings an associated product line, customer base and the established RoadHawk™ camera brand to Trakm8. We expect to develop the products, integrating them into our portfolio and to expand the customer base through the existing sales channels. DCS is expected to be an immediately earnings enhancing acquisition. Although our primary strategy this year is to focus on maintaining strong organic growth and to maximise the potential of DCS, we continue to assess opportunities which augment growth through further selective acquisitions. Any acquisition being considered will need to meet our clearly defined market segment objectives and financial criteria. To that end we have agreed a £2m increase in our debt facility with HSBC bringing it to £5.7m, of which £3.7m has been drawn. Lastly, I would like to thank all the Trakm8 staff for their exceptional commitment and hard work in order to accomplish the significant progress made over the past twelve months. John Watkins Executive Chairman Company Number 05452547 11 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Strategic Report The Directors present their Strategic Report on the Group for the year ended 31 March 2015. Business Review and Principal Activities Trakm8 Holdings PLC and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) design, manufacture and sell fleet management and insurance solutions and associated hardware components. These solutions are used in a wide variety of applications from heavy duty commercial vehicles to light CVs, cars, earth moving equipment and a number of niche applications such a golf carts and industrial cleaning machines. The solutions provide data for customers to more effectively use their vehicles by reducing journey times, reducing fuel consumption and accidents, improving utilisation and serviceability, expense tracking, and integration into customers ERP systems. The data is also used to identify driver profiles for risk prediction, trigger cash alerts, assist in crash reconstruction and to predict vehicle service requirements. The market for these solutions is growing as the cost of providing them reduces and the benefit of the data is becoming more valuable. Indeed the scale of the opportunity and the rate of growth could be materially increased if the solutions’ costs could be further significantly reduced. However, the competition is also growing and there remains pricing pressure being mitigated by the increased functionality of the solutions. The market remains largely fragmented although consolidation is occurring, particularly driven by interest in the space from venture capital companies. 12 12 Trakm8 and BOX have consolidated most of the operational and finance functions. They share common engineering hardware and software solutions, only maintaining separate sales and marketing channels. As a result Trakm8 too has been playing a part in the consolidation process underway in this market. The results for the year show a 95% increase in our revenues to £17.9m (2014: £9.2m) and an adjusted EBITDA of £2.60m (2014: £1.24m). Strong organic growth and the supplemented BOX installed base has grown the installed base of units reporting to our servers with recurring revenues now accounting for 31% of our total turnover. Statement of Financial Position The Group has a strong balance sheet as at 31 March 2015 with net assets of £7.0m (2014: £5.1m). We continued our investment in the business with £0.36m spent on new plant and IT assets together with £0.86m on development costs enhancing our solutions for calculating insurance risk, First Notification of Loss, crash detection and vehicle diagnostic data. Our cash balances at the year end were £3.4m (2014: £2.9m) and total bank borrowings were £2.8m (2014: £2.3m). During the year the Group repaid the outstanding Clydesdale loan of £2.0m with a new facility from HSBC comprising a £3m term loan repayable over 5 years plus a new 3 year £1m revolving credit facility which had not been drawn as at 31 March 2015. You Drive. We think. Strategy The Group strategy remains to provide machine to machine (“M2M”) products and services that grow the installed base of connections with service revenues, thus ensuring predictable revenues and cash flows. We will continue to increase our focus on utilisation of the accumulating server data to create the algorithms that will improve the fuel economy scoring and the driver insurance risk calculations, crash event identification and reconstruction. Trakm8 installed vehicles cover over two billion miles each year. This data along with the statistical analysis now available with latest computing techniques will continue to drive the next stages of improved returns on investment in the technology. It will also create opportunities in itself to drive both sales of data and devices as part of the use of Big Data for marketing and promotion planning by retailers. Trakm8 will also utilise its extensive vehicle electrical knowledge to drive vehicle service algorithms to reduce breakdowns, improve serviceability and reduce cost of ownership. This too will drive increased opportunities for telematics and data within the automotive aftermarket and road side assistance sectors. Trakm8 will provide hardware and software solutions on a stand-alone basis to third parties so long as they are part of Trakm8’s core offerings. The long term strategy is to expand from our UK centric base for solutions and introduce the business model into new markets. The market for our solutions is growing across the globe. Trakm8 can be one of the providers to benefit from this and grow into a very significant business. This strategy provides the shareholders with the prospect of continued increase in shareholder value over the medium and long terms. Company Number 05452547 13 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Strategic Report (continued) Organic Growth The Group will continue to drive organic growth through widening the customer base, increasing the range of solutions offered and broadening the geographic coverage. Trakm8 has built a strong and profitable base in the UK and will consider expanding into new territories. With every size of vehicle type now addressed from the smallest fleets to the largest, from passenger cars to heavy duty trucks and industrial equipment, Trakm8 has a sales channel and product suitable for all. Trakm8 will continue to invest heavily in engineering new products and solutions to ensure that these are market leading. Acquisitions After the year end the Group announced it had acquired on 16 June 2015 the business and assets of DCS Systems Ltd (“DCS”) for a cash consideration of £3.3 million. DCS specialises in the design and distribution of camera systems for the motor vehicle, bicycle and security markets. DCS’s last unaudited accounts for its financial year ending 30 April 2015 reported revenues of £2.8 million and profit before tax of £0.6 million. The acquisition was funded from the Group’s existing cash and bank facilities. The Group will continue to seek acquisitions that complement our organic growth strategies. These will be businesses in the M2M and Big Data space, where we can drive value for the shareholders and enhance the range of markets and services we address. 14 Environmental The Group provides products and services that are targeted at reducing the consumption of the world’s natural resources. As a Group we also strive to ensure that we minimise the use of these resources ourselves. Trakm8 is accredited to ISO 14001 as part of its commitment to best practice on Environmental matters. We monitor various environmental impacts that the Group has, such as CO2 emitted by company vehicles, and has clear strategies in place to reduce these. Principal Risks and Uncertainties The Board has analysed the risks to the Group and considered the probability and magnitude of the effect of each one. From this analysis the Board reviewed the controls and procedures in order to mitigate these risks. The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group are set below. 1. Significant operational system failure Our long term strategy is to move our operational systems into the Cloud, consequently we are currently operating systems both within the Cloud and within a traditional data centre environment. Non Cloud based services: We provide no single point of failure which entails diversity of datacentres from separate suppliers and replication of data between data centres. Daily point in time backups are taken offsite. Cloud based: The cloud approach does not require symmetric hardware between datacentres because it only takes minutes to deploy replacement server(s). To this end we ensure the data is backed up over separate Cloud regions. You Drive. We think. 2. Attracting, maintaining and motivating highly skilled engineers and developers We provide interesting work within a growing business and maintaining this is key to employee retention. We have improved the working environment, developed employment compensation arrangements that provide “modern benefits”, engaged in more staff participation events and expanded the staff briefing process to monthly. 3. Competitors taking an increasing market share due to our failure to develop our products We have recruited a new senior leadership team and expanded the breadth and depth of the product and planning functions with strong innovation skills. We believe that we have the resources to stay in the forefront of technology. 4. A deterioration in the economic climate Daily monitoring of sales orders, invoicing and cash flow. Monthly reviews of overheads against budget. Tight control of all accounts to ensure they do not become overdue. 5. Adverse Mobile Network Changes 1) Trakm8 has a mix of mobile network suppliers, so in the event of a mobile outage 100% of the installed service base will not be affected. 2) Trakm8 provide a configuration manager which allows remote upgrade of the installed base and this can be used to address system wide issues as long as basic GPRS communications exist. 3) Trakm8 relies on the mobile phone suppliers to provide a quality of service and investment in suitable reliable infrastructure. The same is true for the GPS network (we don’t own our own satellites) and the Internet (we rely on a diverse inter connected network which is supplied by 3rd parties). 6. Access to finance and debt We have been conservative in raising debt finance and in addition look to maintain sensible levels of cash balances. We closely monitor cash generated from our operations together with new investments in fixed assets and capitalised development costs. Company Number 05452547 15 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Strategic Report (continued) Key Performance Indicators The key performance indicators used to assess the performance and financial status of the Group are as follows:- Adjusted EBITDA Adjusted Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation, exceptional costs and share based payments. The Group monitors adjusted EBITDA and the result for the year was much improved. The improvement stemmed from increased revenues at Trakm8 and a full twelve months contribution from BOX, along with the integration of the manufacture of Trakm8’s telematics devices. Invoiced Units Units being invoiced for telematics services increased by 72% to in excess of 102,000 units. This was due to success in both the Fleet Management sector and Insurance market. Monthly recurring revenues The annualised recurring revenues increased by 65% to £7.5m due to increased numbers of units reporting. Cash and cash equivalents The Group monitors the cash position of the company daily and establishes banking facilities with current and future requirements in mind. As a result of new banking facilities and strong operational cash generation the available cash to the business increased during the period. 2015 £ 2014 £ 2,596,573 1,237,734 102,231 59,602 624,883 377,953 3,407,959 2,910,786 16 You Drive. We think. Employee Matters The Group recognises that the employees are the key asset of the business. The Board of Directors has employee satisfaction monitoring processes and has succession planning in place. There are company-wide communication activities both in person and via the Group intranet. The Company provides competitive compensation plans and has a scheme whereby the staff share in the success of the Group. Trakm8 secured accreditation to ISO 18001 as part of its commitment to best practice on the management of Health and Safety. 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. The Group has committed to gaining accreditation to ISO 27001 as part of its commitment to data security. 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. John Watkins Executive Chairman Company Number 05452547 17 Corporate Governance Board of Directors and Committees During the financial year the Board, comprised of five executive Directors and one non-executive Director, met regularly throughout the year.

Sean joined the Group six months ago following senior engineering positions at Continental UK, RAC and Aston Martin. Mark joined the Group fifteen months ago as the Managing Director of BOX Telematics following a successful career in IT and operations at Continental UK and Ford Motor Co. Audit Committee The Audit Committee is responsible for ensuring that the Group’s financial performance is properly monitored, controlled and reported. The Finance Director and other Directors attend as required. Following good corporate governance the Audit committee initiated a rotational review of our external auditors. Two firms were shortlisted and assessed and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP were selected in December 2014 as the Group’s new auditors. The committee and the external auditor have safeguards to avoid a potential compromise of auditor’s objectivity and independence. These include the adoption of a policy that segregates the supply of audit and non-audit services and requires committee approval for the supply of services such as tax services and acquisition related due diligence. The key issues considered by the Audit committee included revenue recognition, capitalisation of development costs and impairment review of Goodwill. 20 You Drive. We think. Remuneration Committee The Remuneration Committee’s terms of reference include making recommendations on Directors’ compensation packages to ensure that the Group Board enjoys and retains an appropriate level of motivated resources. The Committee engages with external consultants as and where it is deemed beneficial. The Group has adopted and operates a share dealing code for Directors in accordance with the requirements of the Combined Code. Relations with Shareholders The Board values and attaches the utmost importance to the maintenance of good relationships with shareholders. During the period the Board conducted a series of ‘shareholders update presentations’ at venues throughout the United Kingdom and the intention is to continue the programme during the current financial year. These presentations are attended by the Non Executive Directors.

Statement As To Disclosure of Information To The Auditor The Directors who were in office on the date of approval of these financial statements have confirmed, as far as they are aware, that there is no relevant audit information of which the auditor is unaware. Each of the Directors has confirmed that they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as Directors in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that it has been communicated to the auditor. Auditors A resolution to appoint PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Chartered Accountants, as auditors, will be put to the members at the Annual General Meeting. By approval of the Board on 3 July 2015 J Hedges Company Secretary Company Number 05452547 25 Statement of Directors’ Responsibilities In The Preparation of Financial Statements The directors are responsible for preparing the Annual Report, the Directors’ Remuneration Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have prepared the group financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union, and the parent company financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 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 these financial statements, the directors are required to: • select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; • make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; • state whether IFRSs as adopted by the European Union and applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the group and parent company financial statements respectively; • prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business. Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 26 26 You Drive. We think. The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and the group and enable them to ensure that the financial statements and the Directors’ Remuneration Report comply with the Companies Act 2006 and, as regards the group financial statements, Article 4 of the IAS Regulation. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and the group 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 company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. The directors consider that the annual report and accounts, taken as a whole, is fair, balanced and understandable and provides the information necessary for shareholders to assess a company’s performance, business model and strategy. Each of the directors, whose names are listed in the directors’ report confirm that, to the best of their knowledge: • • the group financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU, give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit of the group; and the directors’ report includes a fair review of the development and performance of the business and the position of the group, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that it faces.

What We Have Audited Trakm8 Holdings PLC’s financial statements comprise: • • • • • the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2015; the parent company balance sheet as at 31 March 2015; the consolidated statement of compehensive income for the year then ended; the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended; the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended; and You Drive. We think. • the notes to the financial statements, which include a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Certain required disclosures have been presented elsewhere in the Report And Financial Statements, rather than in the notes to the financial statements. These are cross- referenced from the financial statements and are identified as audited. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in the preparation of the group financial statements is applicable law and IFRSs 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). In applying the financial reporting framework, the directors have made a number of subjective judgements, for example in respect of significant accounting estimates. In making such estimates, they have made assumptions and considered future events. Opinion On Other Matter Prescribed By The Companies Act 2006 In our opinion, the information given in the Strategic Report and the Directors’ Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements. Other Matters On Which We Are Required To Report By Exception Adequacy of accounting records and information and explanations received Under the Companies Act 2006 we are required to report to you if, in our opinion: • we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or • • 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. We have no exceptions to report arising from this responsibility. Directors’ remuneration Under the Companies Act 2006 we are required to report to you if, in our opinion, certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made. We have no exceptions to report arising from this responsibility. Company Number 05452547 29 What an audit of financial statements involves We conducted our audit in accordance with ISAs (UK & Ireland). An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of: • whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the group’s and the parent company’s circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; • • the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. We primarily focus our work in these areas by assessing the directors’ judgements against available evidence, forming our own judgements, and evaluating the disclosures in the financial statements. Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Independent Auditors’ Report (continued) Responsibilities For The Financial Statements And The Audit Our responsibilities and those of the directors As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors’ Responsibilities set out on page 26, 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) (“ISAs (UK & Ireland)”). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board’s Ethical Standards for Auditors. This report, including the opinions, has been prepared for and only for the company’s members as a body in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and for no other purpose. We do not, in giving these opinions, accept or assume responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person to whom this report is shown or into whose hands it may come save where expressly agreed by our prior consent in writing. 30 You Drive. We think. We test and examine information, using sampling and other auditing techniques, to the extent we consider necessary to provide a reasonable basis for us to draw conclusions. We obtain audit evidence through testing the effectiveness of controls, substantive procedures or a combination of both. In addition, we read all the financial and non- financial information in the Annual Report and Financial Statements to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with, the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.

General Information Trakm8 Holdings PLC (“Company”) and its subsidiaries (together the “Group”) manufacture, distribute and sell telematics devices and services. Trakm8 Holdings PLC is a public limited company incorporated in the United Kingdom (registration number 05452547). The Company is domiciled in the United Kingdom and its registered office 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 IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRS IC”) 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 made up to 31 March 2015. These financial statements are presented on a going concern basis. The Group has cash balances of £3,407,962 at 31 March 2015 and the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group will have adequate financial resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future. You Drive. We think. 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. 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 in line with those used by other members of the Group. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies as disclosed within note 4 and 5. 4. Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis under the historical cost convention in accordance with the applicable accounting standards. 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. 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. Company Number 05452547 37 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) Share-based Payments The Group has applied the requirements of IFRS 2 Share-based payment. 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. Financial Instruments Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised in the Group’s Statement of Financial Position 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 the 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. 38 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 Statement of Cash Flows, 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 as the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Finance charges, including premiums payable on settlement or redemption, are accounted for at fair value 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. They are then amortised over the period to which they relate. 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. You Drive. We think. 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: Freehold property Furniture, fixtures and equipment Computer equipment Motor vehicles 2% Straight line 25% 33% 25% Reducing balance Straight line Straight line The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed at each Statement of Financial Position 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. 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. 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. The remaining amortisation period is 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 costs to either sell or use as an asset. Company Number 05452547 39 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements (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. Operating Leases 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 Sterling is considered to be the functional currency of the Group. This is 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. Foreign currency monetary 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 Statement of Financial Position date. 40 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. Taxation The tax expense represents the sum of the current tax expense and deferred tax expense. Current tax is based on taxable profits 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 Statement of Financial Position 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 Statement of Financial Position 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 in the foreseeable future. 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. You Drive. We think. Revenue Recognition Revenue represents the total of amounts receivable for goods and services provided excluding value added tax. Revenue on the sale of telematics devices and other hardware is recognised on the delivery of the goods to the customer, or where bill and hold arrangements exist on acceptance of the goods by the customer. Telematics services, being the provision of data to customers, is recognised over the period to which it relates and the appropriate portion of service revenues covering a future period is shown as deferred income under current liabilities. The relevant proportion of revenue for engineering services is recognised when the project is substantially complete and the outcome is reasonably certain. Warranty Claims Provision is made for liabilities arising in respect of expected warranty claims. Exceptional Items Exceptional items are those items that, in the Directors’ view, are required to be separately disclosed by virtue of their size or incidence to enable a full understanding of the Group’s financial performance. 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. The Board have assessed that there is now just one segment following the integration of the Trakm8 and BOX businesses. This segment has two separate revenue streams distinguished by whether the revenues arise from solely hardware sales (Products) or hardware with ongoing service fees (Solutions). 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. • 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 • Treasury reserve represents the cost of shares held in Treasury. • Retained earnings represents retained profits and the share based payment reserve. Treasury Shares The profit on the sale of Treasury shares in the previous year has been reclassified between Share Premium, Treasury reserve and Retained earnings. This reclassification was not considered material to justify a prior year restatement. Company Number 05452547 41 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) Changes In Accounting Standards And Disclosures • The Group has not adopted any new interpretations or amendments to existing standards in the year ended 31 March 2015. • There are no new standards or interpretations that have been issued by the IASB that will have a material impact on the Group’s financial statements. 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 a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements (apart from those involving estimations, which are dealt with below). Revenue recognition Revenue on development projects is recognised when the work has been substantially completed and management have assessed that the outcome is reasonably certain. Goodwill carrying value A full impairment review has been performed on a “value in use” basis, which requires estimation of future net operating cash flows, the time period over which they will occur, an appropriate discount rate and an appropriate growth rate. Further details, including a sensitivity analysis, are given in Note 13 and the accounting policy is set out in Note 4. 42 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 Statement of Financial Position 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. 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. You Drive. We think. Recoverability of trade receivables Management are particularly conscious of the financial weakness of some companies and closely monitors 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 receivables in the future. Recoverability of deferred tax asset During the year, management have reconsidered the recoverability of the deferred tax asset. The projections demonstrate that the deferred tax asset will be utilised in the foreseeable future. Assumptions have been made on the number of years over which the tax losses 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. Fair value adjustments On the date of acquisition, management have fair valued the assets and liabilities of BOX Telematics Limited to ensure they are consolidated at the correct amount. Management have used judgement in calculating the fair values using their knowledge of the Company and its surroundings. The assumptions made are anticipated to give a true and fair view on the date of acquisition. 6. Segmental Analysis The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is identified as the Board and as per the Executive Chairman’s Statement, the CODM now define all it’s trading under the single Integrated Telematics Technology segment and therefore review the results of the group as a whole. Consequently all of the Group’s revenue, expenses, results, assets and liabilities are in respect of one Integrated Telematics Technology segment. The CODM review the revenue streams of Integrated Fleet Management and Insurance Solutions (Solutions) and Hardware as Discrete Devices (Products) as part of their internal reporting. Products is the sale of hardware through the Group’s distributors. Solutions represents the sale of the Group’s full vehicle telematics service to customers, engineering services, professional services and mapping solutions.

Company Number 05452547 49 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) Since the acquisition the two main trading entities, Trakm8 Ltd and BOX Telematics Ltd have been closely integrated. BOX now manufacturers all of the new T10 range of hardware products which is sold by both trading entities. In addition both companies have combined their customer support, development and finance functions. The two businesses have therefore been assessed as one cash generating unit for an impairment test on Goodwill. The impairment review has been based on the Group’s budgets for 2015/16 which have been reviewed and approved by the Board. Forecasts for the subsequent 3 years have been produced based on 7% growth rates in each year. A net present value has been calculated using a pre tax discount rate of 10% which is deemed to be a prudent rate taking account of the Group’s cost of funds and an extra element for risk. No terminal value has been calculated as the discounted cash flow forecasts used within the model fully support the goodwill value. In addition a sensitivity analysis has been undertaken by making the following changes:- 1. Reduction in annual growth rates to 3% per annum 2. Increase in the discount rate to 13% The conclusion of this review is that no impairment in the goodwill figure is necessary. Development costs have been internally generated. Amortisation expenses of £517,125 (2014: £202,208) have been charged to Administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. 50 You Drive. We think. 14.

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. No performance conditions were included in the fair value calculations. During the year three new sets of options were awarded and the inputs to our Black Scholes pricing model were: Option Scheme P Q R Grant date 7/4/2014 31/7/2014 18/12/2014 Weighted average FV (pence) Weighted average SP (pence) Exercise price (pence) Expected volatility (%) Expected life of option Dividend yield (%) Risk free (%) 28.43 57.75 57.75 57.1% 5 years 0 % 1.20 % 40.77 81.5 81.5 57.1% 5 years 0 % 1.20 % 43.26 87.5 87.5 57.4% 5 years 0 % 1.20 % The risk free rate of return is the yield on government gilt market price and the volatility has been based on historic share prices. 56 You Drive.

Company Number 05452547 59 Trakm8 Holdings PLC - Annual Report 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements (continued) 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 cash reserves. Currency risk The Group operates internationally although the majority of its sales are in sterling. Purchases of components are also made in US Dollars and Euros. The Group endeavours to minimise its foreign currency exposure by trading in Sterling wherever possible The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 10% decrease in the Sterling against the US Dollar and the Euro and the resulting effect on profit. The sensitivity analysis of the Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk at the year end has been determined based upon the assumption that the increase in US Dollar and Euro exchange rates is effective throughout the financial year and all other variables remain constant. US Dollar Euro 2015 £ (43,694) (72,500) 2014 £ (13,454) (20,462) 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 the date of invoice. Overdue trade receivables are managed through a phased escalation culminating in legal action. The credit risk on cash and cash equivalents can be assessed by reference to the external credit ratings of the banks where the deposits are held.

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 total borrowings divided by total capital. Total borrowings include “current and non-current borrowings” as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. Total capital is calculated as “equity” as shown in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position plus total borrowings. 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.

Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis under the historical cost convention in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and applicable accounting standards in the United Kingdom. Cash Flow Statement The Company has taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard No. 1 (Revised 1996) from the requirement to produce a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is a subsidiary undertaking where 90% or more of the voting rights are controlled within the group. Share-based Payments The grant by the Company of options over its equity instruments to the employees of a subsidiary undertaking in the Group is treated as a capital contribution. The fair value of employee services received, measured by reference to the grant date fair value of the equity instrument, is recognised over the vesting period as an increase to investment in subsidiary undertakings, with a corresponding credit to equity. At each balance sheet date, the Company revises its estimates of the number of options or shares that are expected to vest. The impact of any revision, if any, is recognised as a capital contribution with a corresponding adjustment to reserves.

Financial Instrument 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. Bank Borrowings Interest-bearing bank loans and overdrafts are recorded as the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs. Finance charges, including premiums payable on settlement or redemption, are accounted for at fair value 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. They are then amortised over the period to which they relate. 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. 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. Related Party Transactions The Company has taken advantage of the exemption in FRS 8 “Related Party Disclosures” from disclosing transactions with Group companies. 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.

Guarantee The Company has guaranteed the bank borrowings of its subsidiary companies Trakm8 Ltd and BOX Telematics Ltd. During 2014 the term loan from Clydesdale was repaid in full and replaced by a new term loan of £3m with HSBC. The new loan is secured by a fixed and floating charge on all the assets of the Group. It is repayable by monthly instalments until 2018 and bears interest at a floating rate of 1.95% over Base rate. In addition HSBC granted a new £1m revolving credit facility which is repayable in full at the end of the three year term. The loan bears an interest rate of 1.5% over LIBOR on the drawn amount and a fee of 0.75% on the undrawn facility. As at 31 March 2015 the Group had not drawn down any of this credit facility. 11. Related Parties The Company has taken advantage of the exemptions conferred by FRS 8 from the requirement to disclose transactions between wholly owned subsidiary undertakings.
