TOMTOM’S CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, TACO TITULAER
“Growth in both Automotive and Enterprise contributed to a year-on-year increase of 15% in Location Technology revenue.
Our operating result improved compared with last year as a result of higher gross margin and lower operating expenses. The latter is mainly explained by lower acquisition-related amortization and cautious cost management.
During the quarter, we resumed our share buyback, purchasing over 2 million shares for €17 million.
We are reiterating our full-year guidance with the expectation that revenue will be more weighted to the second half of the year given the supply chain constraints within the automotive industry.”
