New Device Financing Facility

The Company has agreed in principle to enter into a device financing facility with Rand Merchant Bank (RMB) primarily to support deployment under its South African National Treasury contract. Under the proposed facility, RMB is expected to fund the upfront cost of devices and would be repaid from contracted customer payments over the life of the contract. The Company keeps the customer relationship and continues to provide and bill the service. The proposed facility is expected to support our hardware-as-a-service model, so rollout costs scale with customer demand rather than with the Company’s cash. The proposed facility remains subject to definitive documentation.

Product Innovation and Market Expansion

Powerfleet continues to expand its Unity platform capabilities through the introduction of new AI-powered solutions designed to extend customer value and address a broader range of connected assets.

●Unity Foresight: Launching today, Unity Foresight is an AI predictive analytics solution designed to deliver enhanced operational insights, which the Company believes creates opportunities for incremental recurring revenue across On-Site and On-Road customer segments.

●Unity Asset Intelligence: Also launching today, Unity Asset Intelligence extends Powerfleet’s capabilities beyond vehicles to include pallets, containers, equipment, and a broad range of powered and non-powered assets, opening new opportunities across asset-intensive industries, a total addressable market estimated at over 100 million assets and $30 billion of potential connected services.
