quiet thread but that suits very nicely.

nice growth in results but more importantly a very positive outlook for the year ahead. Management seem keen to reduce debt more towards their target and digest their aquisition. Very happy with that as a new holder

Update this morning. In line with expectations.
Based on company's estimates FY23 forward P/E ratio now ca. 12, not bad for a company with organic revenue growth ca. 20%, growing net margin %, and proven track record of accretive M&A.

Trading update expected shortly. Company doesn't seem to be on a lot of people's radar screen. Comical sounding name doesn't help it to be taken seriously, but it's worth keeping an eye on.

Experienced and well-reputed management team, with proven deal making capability, operating in growing markets, rolling out new products to their loyal customer base. Czech management is a positive as they are serious people, Germanic in their style, with a tendency to under-promise and over-deliver..

Some shares don't need a lot of help and the results here I think speak for themselves.

Integration with the PUESC e-customs system developed by the Customs Agency in Poland, which enables the mandatory submission of electronic export declarations. We can now automate the process by creating a PUESC account and registering required information for the electronic declaration. Once a truck enters the territory of Poland the electronic declaration process is automatically triggered, leading to an easier and faster custom clearance process.

Driving behaviour is also analysed via an in-house algorithm, which provides valuable tailored insights on drivers and outlines recommendations. The platform also supports the majority of electric vehicles, both Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs).

During H1 2022, we have added valuable new features to automate fleet operations and improve efficiency:

-- The new Maintenance Module helps our customers to manage vehicle maintenance plans and connect it with the utilisation and planning management. The automated workflows can be set up based on an odometer status event. There is also a possibility to setup customised reminders, deadlines and automated triggers.

-- We have improved the ETA near-real-time calculation and prediction by new insight - Border Crossing Times. The prediction of the time is based on Telematics Big Data, which we collect from all our telematics and toll units and is based on our proprietary analytical algorithms.

-- To improve the profitability and planning process, we have added a new Toll Costs Calculation and prediction based on the real truck and route parameters.

-- Our customers can now offer their unutilised vehicles to third-party fleets using the new Vehicle Sharing functionality to improve not only the overall fleet efficiency but also contribute to a solution tackling utilisation problem within the road-freight transportation industry.

-- To improve the transportation management efficiency, we have added new POI Alerts to inform dispatchers and shippers about vehicles arriving or leaving important locations, e.g. loading or unloading sites.

-- To help our customers to transition to low carbon future, we have developed a Calculation of Energy Consumption and GHG emissions tool. This tool can help our customers to calculate and communicate the emissions of a shipment in the value chain to help shippers understand and identify opportunities to reduce indirect (Scope 3) GHG emissions.

The all important outlook.



' Outlook

The Group has performed in line with management expectations year-to-date. Looking ahead, we estimate organic net energy and services sales for Q3 2022 of at least EUR44.5m which would represent strong LTM growth in excess of 19.0% year-on-year. In addition, Webeye's contribution to the top line for Q3 2022 is expected to be at least EUR3.5m.

During the first half of 2022, fuel supply risks and macroeconomic conditions have deteriorated, with inflation and higher fuel prices moderately impacting the Group's operations and operating expenses. Despite these challenges we expect to deliver a resilient full year performance, with Adjusted EBITDA for the year-to-date developing in line with expectations. While inflation, the post Covid-19 cost rebase and additional PLC costs continue to impact our profitability, we expect these incremental costs will be offset by the profit delivered from WebEye in the second half of the year.

Whilst the business has navigated with confidence through the challenging environment, the Directors note elevated risks and uncertainties with respect to the future of the European economy, and potential impacts of the sanctions related to imports of Russian oil introduced by the European Commission. Notwithstanding these headwinds, and assuming no significant worsening of the current environment, we remain confident in our future outlook and reaffirm our mid-term guidance. '
