Zoals reeds aankondigd in jaarverslag, al gerealiseerd:
Financials
Our balance sheet is solid, and we established a net cash position
mid-way through the year. Our result is limited by our investments
in new product and technologies, such as our new map making
platform and our navigation software for automotive, which are
made in the expectation of a good return in the future.
Outlook for 2014
In 2014, we expect continued growth in our fleet management
business, to announce new deals with automotive customers, and
to establish a multiproduct consumer business. We expect our
leadership position in traffic to translate into new traffic deals. We
will have a rationalised, cost-effective PND range in Europe and
North America, which will continue to improve from our on-going
investments. By the end of 2014, we expect to have substantially
completed the first version of our new map making platform and
to have an NDS-based connected navigation application that keeps
its on-board map up-to-date and which delivers a better user
experience than any competing system.
