TomTom's Chief Executive Officer, Harold Goddijn

"We reported a strong second quarter with top line growth and an improved gross margin. Our Consumer business held up well in the second quarter, mainly driven by European PND and sport revenue, and we continued our accelerating growth path in Telematics.
In Automotive, we are making good progress in delivering a complete set of leading connected navigation system components to our OEM customers, which is reflected in the record number of quotations we have been involved in during the first half of the year.
The development of our new real-time map-making platform will result in better maps at lower cost. The platform is scheduled to roll out from late this year onwards. Our new map is continuously releasable and processes sensor and crowd-sourced data from our own and customer applications in near real-time.
Customers will experience all the advantages of a locally stored map, while receiving incremental updates. This puts TomTom in a leading position to master future map use requirements for Highly Automated Driving and pilots are in progress with our customers. Driven by our strong first half year results, we are increasing our full year guidance for 2014."
