We are pleased with the development and progress made in Q4 2023. ABAX rounded off 2023 with a solid performance in Q4, even though we still operate in an uncertain macroeconomic environment.

We see that by leveraging mobility data insights, we can help customers to realize savings of as much as 20 %. As our customers experience tougher market conditions, we believe the scale of the potential savings that we offer makes us unique and competitive in the fleet management and telematics space.

Our goal is to create a win-win situation where both ABAX and the companies we join forces with can thrive. Through strategic acquisitions, we aim to build a stronger, more diverse organization that is well-equipped to innovate and lead in a competitive marketplace.

We are confident that Tom’s new role will be instrumental in driving our M&A strategy forward. His strategic mindset and deep understanding of the industry we operate in are exactly what ABAX needs to realize its vision of becoming a global leader within telematics and smart mobility services.

The integration of Movolytics under the ABAX umbrella signifies a bold step forward in expanding our market reach within the telematics sector. This acquisition is in perfect harmony with our core objectives of sustained growth, continual innovation, and our pledge to deliver exceptional value to our customers.

By welcoming Movolytics into the ABAX family, we are setting the stage for accelerated growth and increased market penetration in the UK. This merger allows us to cater to a larger customer base, enhancing our ability to offer cutting-edge solutions and services across a broader spectrum. With the UK as a strategic focal point, we aim to not only drive development and innovation but also to redefine industry standards from the perspective of both the market and our valued customers.

“It has been an honor to work with the Abax team, employees, and shareholders as CEO over the past 5 years. The company has doubled in size and transformed from a leading Nordic Telematics player into a Telematics and Data Mobility Leader. With Emma as our new CEO, this journey will accelerate.”

The Macro environment is still challenging, which effects volume growth in some regions and segment, while markets like Holland, Finland and UK exceeds our growth expectations. We will continue to strengthen our position by creating value for our customers through developing products utilizing data which save our customer’s money, time and resources

We are very proud that despite tough times we can show an ARR of 746 MNOK with a continued growth of 4% compared to the previous year. This is due to the fact that we have opened new verticals while maintaining our topline sales. We can also see positive effects from our focus on optimising cash flow. With a very solid foundation, we now look forward to growing our business further in both existing and new markets with a focus on meeting our customers' needs to manage mobility data smartly and efficiently.

ABAX strives to procure the best materials at the most reasonable prices and that they fulfil our corporate social responsibility (CSR) to the environment and the community through our procurement initiatives. Our new policy is a critical step in committing to the ABAX Group’s global corporate social responsibility.

ABAX are one of the largest telematics companies in Europe and we’re very pleased to be able to welcome them to our partner programme. Their products are widely used across our customer base, especially by commercial vehicle fleets, and this new integration will make life much easier for them, helping consolidate essential data streams into one place.

Customers are at the center of everything that ABAX does, and as such adding a valuable Partner like FleetCheck increases our service offering. Using two great solutions will enable our mutual customers to be more efficient and profitable.

 It is a strength for ABAX to work closely with a partner that is familiar with car producers and the distribution field.

We have had a tremendous 12 months at ABAX, not only have we been able to grow the UK offering, but we have expanded our suite of innovative solutions to help even more business owners and fleet managers as they strive to be more efficient and productive.

We are very excited about this new partnership and are looking forward to showing AVRO members the huge benefits on offer through our telematics solutions. The beauty of the products available to them is that they are designed to be easily installed while providing huge amounts of valuable data to help track, protect and secure their vehicles and other assets.

We are proud of the fact that ABAX has been certified for these three standards for 10 years in a row! How many of our competitors can say the same?

We are committed to giving our customers access to the best experiences possible, with our focus being on solving actual problems our customers are facing and providing real value to them. We believe that investing in our Technology is crucial to match our company strategy.

Many of our customer base today are spending their days working out in the field, away from a desk. They do not have time to investigate the future of technology and what it involves for their business. We make it easy for them to benefit from their own data, to become more cost-efficient, and decrease their CO2 footprint.

It’s pleasing to see the UK construction industry leading the way in Europe with this pro-active response to criminals who are continually advancing their tactics. A combination of highly accurate technology together with traditional anti-theft methods will help to keep the industry an important step ahead, at the same time as potentially saving it a small fortune.

The new ABAX Geofence builds on what ABAX already delivers and will help any business to increase their control, reduce risk and increase efficiency by having one solution that covers all the assets in the company.

ABAX is in a strategic transition that involves moving from a focus on product sales into focusing on our services and SaaS.  With my background in both technology and marketing I hope to apply this experience when ABAX will start the shift.  After six years at Amazon, I also have a good understanding of how a team is best organised so they can nail their deliveries, but also to sell complex things, make advanced technology accessible to the customer.

This full innovative solution offered by ABAX not only puts fleet managers in a better position to quickly identify and manage any risks, but allows them to manage their operation more efficiently than traditional insurance policies.

All companies should scrutinize how their business impacts the world, and this is more important in 2022 than ever before in the history of humanity.

Volvo is a significant supplier of machines to the Scandinavian market. The opportunity to be able to connect to technology that is already installed in Volvo's machines will enable major gains for both the environment and costs. We must all take responsibility and take advantage of the development opportunities that exist, not least in an industry with a major impact on society. We want to inspire others in the industry to make a difference and expand their digital services.

Our extended partnership with ABAX means we can continue our growth into Europe, whilst providing flexible and affordable insurance to thousands of fleet businesses – helping them save time and money.

By moving fully to the cloud, we can quickly scale up our performance to meet demands with “a click of a button”. There is no need for expensive hardware investments and long lead times as we grow our platform.

In a hectic and speedy workday, Hackathon is a way for us to make room for our developers to think outside of the box to be innovative and at the same time have fun. The end goal is for us to come up with some great ideas that increase growth on our new and existing portfolio.

In line with our evolving strategy and ambitions it is important to give the team an arena to be creative, look for new solutions and implement ideas that will provide value to our customers.

By using ABAX and Linkway a customer can get GPS data from multiple sources and see the combined picture in one solution.

With two acquisition and all the new people, we will see more collaboration, ideas and insight. We want to mix the teams and have people work in new circles. We want people to get to know each other and share their experiences.

Together with RAM track-and-trace high technical knowledge and software functionality ABAX will form a leading Nordic SaaS telematics company and deliver value-added connectivity services to the customers of both companies.
