TomTom's Chief Executive Officer, Harold Goddijn
“Combined Automotive, Licensing and Telematics revenue grew by 14% year on year, in line with our expectations. High margin recurring software revenue now accounts for 60% of group revenue and more than 75% of gross result in the quarter.
Automotive revenue came in strong because of overall growing car sales and new car models launched with our products. We are happy that the international motor press selected the PEUGEOT 3008 as the Car of the Year 2017 featuring our products.
We continued to make progress in Autonomous Driving during this quarter. Volvo selected our products for their Drive Me research programme and our HD Map and RoadDNA coverage was further extended.”
Outlook 2017
We are re-iterating our guidance for the year.
In 2017, we expect full year revenue of between €925 million and €950 million. Adjusted EPS2 is expected of around €0.25.
We expect the combined revenue of the Automotive, Licensing and Telematics businesses to grow above 10% year on year in 2017, in line with our previous expectations of their combined revenue CAGR of 15% between 2016 and 2020.
We expect the level of investments (both CAPEX and OPEX) to show a modest increase compared with 20163, excluding acquisitions.
Financial and business review
Revenue for the first quarter amounted to €213 million, 2% lower compared with the same quarter last year (Q1 '16: €217 million). Automotive, Licensing and Telematics jointly grew by 14% year on year, which was offset by lower Consumer revenue. Our gross margin equalled to 62% in the first quarter (Q1 '16: 57%). The net result for the quarter was a loss of €4.6 million, which translates to adjusted EPS¹ of €0.03.

Change percentages and totals calculated before rounding.
Automotive & Licensing combined revenue in the quarter was €74 million (Q1 '16: €63 million).
Automotive generated revenue of €41 million in the quarter, representing a 38% increase year on year. This growth mainly came from higher revenue on a contract that started to kick in during the first half of 2016. Licensing revenue in Q1 '17 was €33 million compared with €34 million in the same quarter last year.
In the quarter, Automotive business announced that Alfa Romeo selected TomTom navigation, software and maps, globally, for its Stelvio SUV. It was also revealed that all new Renault cars with the R-LINK infotainment system will come with 3 years’ TomTom Traffic, and 3 years’ European map updates included. Furthermore, the Opel Crossland X, unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show, will be equipped with TomTom components, including software and maps.
We completed the expansion of our HD Map product to the entire mainland US interstate network, now covering over 185,000 kilometres of interstates and highways across the country. Also, Volvo Cars selected our HD Map to power the Volvo Drive Me programme, a research project where real drivers will use Autonomous Driving in their daily lives on public roads. In addition, we announced a new project to crowdsource high definition map data together with Qualcomm, exploring the connectivity and compute capabilities of their Drive Data Platform.
In January, we acquired Autonomos, a Berlin-based Autonomous Driving start-up. Autonomos has built up expertise and technologies for automated vehicle assistance systems, including a full demonstration-level Autonomous Driving software stack, 3D sensor technology, and digital image processing.
Our Licensing business announced the extension of our relationship with Mappy, including access to TomTom traffic data from 10 countries to the whole of Europe. Frankfurt and Düsseldorf have implemented an intelligent traffic control system, developed by Munich-based GEVAS software, which includes TomTom’s detailed live traffic data for an enhanced view of the cities’ traffic flows.
The introduction of TomTom Traffic in Argentina and Colombia increased the coverage in South America to four countries and extends the global reach of our traffic service to 54 countries. The growth in coverage has been aided by the continuous growth in the GPS trace input to the TomTom traffic fusion engine from our community, which has now surpassed 500 million connected data sources that include smartphones, embedded automotive systems, telematics systems and portable navigation devices.

Telematics revenue for the quarter was €41 million, a 10% increase compared with €37 million in Q1 '16. The increase is driven by an increase in both the recurring subscription revenue as well as from hardware sales. The recurring subscription revenue for the quarter increased by 6% year on year to €31 million (Q1 '16: €29 million). Monthly revenue per subscription declined by 7% year on year, mainly due to a mix effect caused by growing aftermarket connected car volumes, which are priced at lower levels compared with the traditional fleet management services.
At the end of the quarter, TomTom Telematics surpassed 723,000 subscriptions to its connected car and fleet management solutions. This represents a 16% increase compared with 625,000 at the end of Q1 '16.

Change percentages and totals calculated before rounding.
Consumer revenue for the quarter decreased by 16% year on year to €98 million (Q1 '16: €117 million), reflecting a decrease in both Consumer products as well as Automotive hardware revenue. The Automotive hardware revenue declined by 35% year on year due to discontinuation of a legacy platform, that went end of life at the start of Q3 '16. Consumer products revenue in Q1 '17 was 12% lower year on year, mainly driven by the continued decline in the PND market.
In the quarter, Sports launched the TomTom Touch Cardio that monitors heart rate, adding to a more accurate calculation of calorie burn, measures the intensity of efforts, and providing insight about fitness level. Sports also released the completely renewed Sports app with a more engaging and motivating way to view activities, trends and comparisons, and monitor performance.

Change percentages and totals calculated before rounding.
Data, software & services revenue in the quarter was €127 million, 10% higher compared with €116 million in Q1 '16, mainly due to increasing Automotive revenue. Data, software & services accounted for 60% of the revenue in Q1 '17 compared with 53% in Q1 '16. Hardware revenue for the quarter was €86 million, 16% lower compared with €102 million in Q1 '16.
Gross margin
Our gross result increased by 7% to €132 million in the quarter compared with €123 million in Q1 '16. The gross margin for the quarter was 62%, which is five percentage points higher compared with 57% in Q1 '16, reflecting the shift of revenue mix towards higher margin data, software & services revenue.
Operating expenses
Total operating expenses for the quarter were €137 million, €10 million higher compared with €128 million in the same quarter last year. This increase is mainly due to higher R&D and SG&A expenses as well as modestly higher amortisation of technology & databases. The increase in our R&D and SG&A line is mainly caused by higher expenses on the long-term employee incentive plan.

Total depreciation and amortisation costs amounted to €33 million compared with €30 million in Q1 '16. This increase is mainly caused by higher amortisation of technology and databases, which is a result of increased capital expenditures in the past years.
Financial income and expenses
The net interest charge for the quarter was €0.2 million versus a net interest charge of €0.3 million in Q1 '16. The other financial result for the quarter was a gain of €0.4 million (Q1 '16: gain of €1.7 million).
Income tax
The net income tax for the quarter was close to nil versus a net income tax gain of €7.3 million in Q1 '16. The income tax gain in Q1 ’16 was mainly the result of remeasurement of our deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Balance sheet
At the end of the quarter, trade receivables plus other receivables totalled €188 million compared with €178 million at the end of Q1 '16. The inventory level at the end of the quarter was €63 million, compared with €57 million at the end of the same quarter last year. Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the quarter were €84 million versus €115 million at the end of Q1 '16.
Current liabilities excluding deferred revenue were €249 million compared with €247 million at the end of Q1 '16.
Deferred revenue was €211 million at the end of Q1 '17, compared with €183 million at the end of the same quarter last year. The year on year increase reflects the increased deferred revenue position related to Automotive contracts with upfront payments for multi-year service offerings.
At 31 March 2017, we reported a net cash position of €79 million (Q1 '16: net cash of €50 million). Net cash is the sum of the cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period (€84 million) minus the borrowings (€5.4 million).
Cash flow
The cash flow from operating activities for the quarter was an outflow of €1.8 million compared with an outflow of €18 million in Q1 '16. The year on year improvement in operating cash flow was mainly driven by lower utilisation of working capital in Q1 '17.
The cash flow used in investing activities during the quarter increased by €22 million year on year to €53 million (Q1 '16: €31 million) mainly due to the acquisition of Autonomos.
The cash flow used in financing activities was €3.2 million, reflecting a repayment of €5 million of our revolving credit facility partly offset by proceeds from the exercise of options related to long-term employee incentive programmes. In the quarter, 0.5 million options (Q1 '16: 0.3 million options) were exercised resulting in a €2.2 million cash inflow (Q1 '16: €1.2 million).
