We are setting our priorities for the future, strengthening support for our growing B2B products. In the quarter, combined revenue of Automotive, Licensing and Telematics grew by 18% year on year and the gross margin that we generate as a Group improved from 60% to 65%. Our Consumer segment will represent less than half of total revenue in the running year.
