Karooooo, which owns 100% of Cartrack, is a leading provider of
insightful real-time data analytics and business intelligence
reported solid results for its third quarter ("Q3 2023") ended
November 30, 2022. This performance continues the Group's more than
ten-year track record of strong growth, profitability and cash
generation in diverse macroeconomic environments.
Assessing the Q3 2023 results, Zak Calisto, CEO and Founder,
said:
“We now have over 100,000 active commercial customers
digitalizing and optimizing their operations on Karooooo’s
Operations Cloud. We have minimal customer or industry
concentration risk and pride ourselves on consistent and strong
subscription revenue growth.
We believe our vertically integrated business model and constant
focus on product improvement and innovation differentiates us
markedly from our peers. This should keep us competitive and
reinforce our long-term success.”
In Q3 2023, Karooooo's total revenue increased by 29% to ZAR930
million (Q3 2022: ZAR720 million). Following significant
investments for future growth in all segments, earnings per share
for the period were similar to last year, at ZAR4.70 (Q3 2022:
ZAR4.72). Strong and record free cash flow generation from the
company's profitable SaaS business model further strengthened the
quality balance sheet, with net cash and cash equivalents at the
end of November 2022 at ZAR819 million (Q3 2022: ZAR799 million). A
cash dividend of USD18.6 million (USD0.60 per share) was paid to
shareholders during the quarter.
Strong demand from small to large enterprises supported growth
in subscribers (connected vehicles and equipment on the platform).
Cartrack saw record growth of over 78,000 new subscribers in Q3
2023.
