Mobility is the key to solving customer challenges, and crew is leading the way in this area. The platform is well-positioned to leverage this opportunity as it continues to grow. In South Africa, over 10% of all vehicles are connected to the Karooooo platform.

Cartrack, Carzuka, and Karooooo Logistics. Karooooo's total revenue increased by 29% to ZAR930 million at the end of Q3 and ZAR2.6 billion on a year-to-date basis. Cartrack grew its revenue by 19% to ZAR804 million, and operating profit by 7% to ZAR222 million in the quarter. Cartrack's adjusted EBITA was comparably unaltered in this quarter.

Cartrack's year-to-date operating profit grew by 19%, EBITA grew by 17%, and EBITA margin is at 48%. This is in-line with Karooooo’s planned investment for future growth and management's guidance for 2023. Carzuka’s steady expansion justifies our belief in the sustainability of its agile, data enhanced, and highly scalable business model.

Carzuka’s revenue grew to 72 million from 24 million in the prior year. We continue to invest in infrastructure, brand building, and improving our processes. Similarly, we are mindful of the losses and are being pragmatic in our spending to ensure good return on investment.

Karooooo Logistics delivered strong growth generating ZAR54 million in revenue and an encouraging operating profit of ZAR2 million in this quarter. Its focus on delivery as a service continues to gain momentum. We will now focus on Cartrack, the largest underlying asset of Karooooo.

Cartrack’s low cost of acquiring a customer, high customer retention rate, strong cost benefits derived from economies of scale and healthy ARPU result in attractive unit economics and a high customer lifetime value. Our lifetime value to cost of acquiring a customer is over 9.

Our gross profit margin on subscription revenue is a healthy 72% and our operating profit margin is 28%, whilst we remain prudent with our capital allocation, we are well-positioned to materially increase investment for growth. We saw record net subscriber additions of over 78,000 this quarter as compared to any other historical quarter.

This was largely supported by demand from small to large enterprises, reflecting the demand for customers to digitalize their businesses as to become more efficient, compliant, and competitive.

Cartrack continues to have great visibility of future revenue with SaaS revenue up 16% to ZAR771 million and total revenue up 19% to ZAR804 million in the quarter. On a year-to-date basis, total subscription revenue remains 97% of total revenue.

Our track record of execution extends over a decade, and we have a proven ability to scale in varying market conditions. Total subscribers grew by 14% to 1,678,606, and our operating profit grew 6% to ZAR222 million, despite significant investment for growth. Cartrack continued to expand in all geographies.

In South Africa, despite adverse economic factors, subscribers still grew by 13%. In Asia, the Middle East, and USA, subscribers grew by 27% as the pace of Cartrack’s expansion into Southeast Asia moves ahead. Southeast Asia presents the greatest opportunity in the medium to long-term as we continue to focus to grow the region.

Europe saw healthy growth of 14% and we aim to allocate more resources to the region in FY 2024. Africa, although is gaining some traction and increased subscribers by 9%. In this quarter, Cartrack’s ARPU was a ZAR157. We are focused on offering a strong value proposition to our customers, while retaining pricing power.

Cartrack has robust operating margins and our current trends are in-line with the long-term financial goals set out upon our listing in NASDAQ in 2021. Research and development as a percentage of subscription revenue remains at 6%, in-line with our long-term targets of 4% to 6%.

We expect to increase capital allocation into sales and marketing to drive growth whereby we expect sales and marketing as a percentage of subscription revenue to increase from the current 14% to be within our long-term target of 17% to 19%.

Despite our continued investments in G&A, we expect that as a percentage of subscription revenue, G&A will drop to 12% to 16% in the long-term. As expected, our adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of subscription revenue was at 45% in the quarter. Our targets for the long-term are 50% to 55%.

We are content with the progress we have made year-to-date and we will retain Cartrack’s outlook for FY 2023. Number of subscribers between 1.7 million and 1.9 million. Cartrack’s subscription revenue between ZAR2.95 billion and ZAR3.1 billion and Cartrack’s adjusted EBITDA margin between 45% and 50%.

Carzuka and Karooooo Logistics continue to scale and positively impact Karooooo’s revenue growth. Both segments showed good progress with strong quarter-on-quarter growth of 11% and 32%, respectively.

In combination with its intuitive e-commerce platform, in this quarter, Carzuka has made significant progress by expanding into its second physical showroom and continuing to grow the brand presence. We will continue to steadily add strategic hubs across South Africa and build Carzuka’s brand.

Karooooo Logistics continues to integrate into Cartrack’s platform to support Cartrack customers. Karooooo’s year-to-date earnings per share grew 20% to ZAR14.59, despite being impacted negatively by Carzuka. We remain focused on managing Carzuka’s losses, while pragmatically investing in this segment. We are content with the results so far.

I would like to thank everybody for joining us today and we'll now open the floor to Q&A with our Group CEO and Founder, Zak..
