TOMTOM'S CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, TACO TITULAER

"In the first quarter of 2026, revenue declined compared with the same period last year, in line with the expectations and guidance we provided with our fourth-quarter results. On a constant-currency basis, Location Technology revenue increased marginally. Higher gross margin and disciplined cost control supported an improvement in our operating result despite a lower revenue base.

We are balancing operational efficiency with continued investment in the areas that underpin our strategy, including our Lane Model Maps. This approach ensures efficient execution while sustaining momentum behind our strategic priorities.

Looking ahead, we reiterate our full-year guidance. We are confident that our operational execution, combined with the strategic progress we are making across the business, positions us well to deliver on our commitments for 2026 and to support our longer-term revenue growth ambitions."

OUTLOOK

(€ in millions, unless stated otherwise) Outlook 2026 Actual 2025
Group revenue 495 - 555 555
Location Technology revenue 435 - 485 482
Operating margin Around +3% +0%

REVENUE FOR THE PERIOD

Revenue for the first quarter amounted to €129 million, a year-on-year decrease of 8% (Q1 '25: €140 million).

LOCATION TECHNOLOGY

Location Technology revenue for the quarter was €114 million, a decrease of 6% compared with the same quarter last year (Q1 '25: €121 million).

The Automotive business generated revenue of €76 million for the quarter, a decrease of 5% compared with the same quarter last year (Q1 '25: €80 million). Automotive operational revenue was €70 million in the quarter, 16% lower year on year (Q1 '25: €83 million), due to a combination of the phase out of some customers and strengthening of the euro against the US dollar.

Automotive operational revenue is calculated as follows:

(€ in millions) Q1 '26 Q1 '25 y.o.y. change
Automotive reported revenue 75.7 79.7 (5%)
Movement of Automotive deferred revenue (6.1) 2.9
Automotive operational revenue 69.6 82.6 (16%)

Enterprise revenue for Q1 '26 was €38 million, 8% lower compared with the same quarter last year (Q1 '25: €42 million). Adjusted for currency fluctuations, Enterprise showed a year-on-year increase, supported by a growing number of customers.

We expanded the adoption of our traffic and location solutions across both private and public-sector customers. We entered into a global partnership with AECOM, enabling the use of TomTom's traffic insights in mobility and infrastructure planning worldwide. We also strengthened our position in traffic management, as Kapsch TrafficCom selected TomTom Traffic to power the next generation of its EcoTrafiX platform for cities and road authorities. In addition, TomTom was selected by LOCUS to provide high-precision traffic data for its location intelligence platform. Through our partner Hastig, TomTom Traffic Analytics was selected under the NDW (Nationaal Dataportaal Wegverkeer) tender to support municipalities and provinces across the Netherlands.

CONSUMER

The Consumer segment reported revenue of €15 million for the quarter, a 21% decline versus the same quarter last year (Q1 '25: €19 million).

RESULT FOR THE PERIOD

GROSS MARGIN

The gross margin for the quarter increased to 90% (Q1 '25: 88%), driven by the higher proportion of high-margin Location Technology revenue in our revenue mix.

OPERATING RESULT

Operating result (EBIT) in the quarter was a profit of €14 million (Q1 '25: profit of €5.7 million), driven by a stronger gross margin and lower operating expenses. Total operating expenses in the quarter were €103 million, a decrease of €15 million compared with the same quarter last year (Q1 '25: €117 million). This decrease mainly reflects the lower operating expense post organizational realignment and higher capitalization of our Lane Model Maps.

FINANCIAL INCOME, EXPENSES AND INCOME TAX

The total financial result for the quarter was an income of €2.0 million due to a combination of interest income on our fixed deposits and cash balances, and a positive foreign exchange result mainly arising from the revaluation of balance sheet items (Q1 '25: expense of €0.02 million).

The income tax expense for the quarter was €2.1 million, compared with an expense of €2.7 million in Q1 '25.

CASH FLOW, LIQUIDITY, AND WORKING CAPITAL

In Q1 '26, free cash flow was an outflow of €2.1 million, versus an outflow of €3.0 million in the same quarter last year. Correcting for the impact of restructuring-related payments associated with the organizational realignment as announced in June 2025, the free cash flow for the quarter was an inflow of €1.1 million.

A reconciliation from operating result to free cash flow, to net cash movement is presented below:

(€ in millions) Q1 '26 Q1 '25
Operating result (EBIT) 13.8 5.7
Depreciation and amortization 4.5 4.6
Equity-settled stock compensation expenses 3.1 2.9
Other non-cash items (0.8) (1.9)
Movements in working capital (excl. deferred revenue) (7.6) (6.4)
Movements in deferred revenue (2.1) 1.9
Interest and tax (1.5) (1.1)
Investments in property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets (11.5) (8.7)
Free cash flow (2.1) (3.0)
Lease payments (2.3) (2.5)
Cash flow from other investing and financing activities (10.6)
Exchange rate differences on cash and fixed-term deposits 0.1 (1.1)
Net cash movement (14.7) (6.5)

Free cash flow saw a year-on-year increase of €0.9 million. This increase in free cash flow is mainly explained by higher EBITDA, partly offset by higher working capital utilization and capital expenditures.

Deferred revenue decreased to €422 million, from €424 million at the end of 2025. The following table presents the deferred revenue, including the effect of netting:

(€ in millions) 31 March 2026 31 December 2025
Automotive 423.0 429.1
Enterprise 17.4 17.0
Consumer 18.9 20.1
Gross deferred revenue 459.3 466.2
Less: Netting adjustment to unbilled revenue (37.4) (42.2)
Deferred revenue 421.9 424.0

Investments in property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets increased year on year, reflecting a higher capitalization of our investments in our Lane Model Maps.

Cash flow from other investing and financing activities for the quarter included a €11 million cash outflow related to our share buyback program. Of the €15 million share buyback program, announced in December 2025, 76% was completed by the end of the quarter.

On 31 March 2026, the Group had no outstanding bank borrowings and reported a net cash position of €248 million (Q4 '25: net cash of €263 million).

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The condensed consolidated financial information for the three-month period ended 31 March 2026 and the related comparative information has been prepared using accounting policies and methods of computation which are based on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as disclosed in the Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.

Unless otherwise indicated, the quarterly condensed consolidated information in this press release is neither audited nor reviewed. Due to rounding, amounts may not add up precisely to totals. All change percentages are calculated before rounding.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

The financial information in this report includes measures which are not defined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) such as IFRS. We believe this information, along with comparable GAAP measures, gives insight to investors as it provides a basis for evaluating our operational performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP. Wherever appropriate and practical, we provide reconciliations to relevant GAAP measures.

Operational revenue is IFRS revenue adjusted for the movement of gross deferred revenue

Gross margin is calculated as gross profit divided by IFRS revenue

EBIT is equal to our operating result

Operating (EBIT) margin is calculated as operating result divided by IFRS revenue

Free cash flow is cash from operating activities minus investments in intangible assets and property, plant and equipment

(€ in thousands) Q1 '26 Q1 '25
Cash flow from operating activities 9,403 5,748
Investments in intangible assets (10,383) (7,756)
Investments in property, plant and equipment (1,086) (955)
Free cash flow (2,066) (2,963)
Restructuring-related cash flow 3,148
Free cash flow excl. restructuring 1,082 (2,963)

Net cash is cash and cash equivalents, plus cash held in fixed term deposits

Gross deferred revenue is deferred revenue¹ before the netting of unbilled receivables

¹ Deferred revenue reflects amounts not yet recognized as revenue as services still need to be delivered. Unbilled revenue represents amounts accrued for when a contractual right to invoice exists. When a single contract has both an accrual, based on contractual invoicing terms, and a deferral, because the underlying services are not yet fully delivered, the unbilled and the deferred positions are netted for presentation on the balance sheet.
