OmniCar Holding AB: Interim Report Q2 2019

Interim report – Summary

”OmniCar” or the ”Company” means the Group, namely OmniCar Holding AB (registered under company registration number 559113-3987) and its wholly owned subsidiary Omnicar A/S. Omnicar A/S, which is the Group’s operating subsidiary, started doing business in February 2016. OmniCar Holding AB was formed in May 2017 by way of a non-cash issue in which the shares in Omnicar A/S were exchanged for shares in OmniCar Holding AB, which resulted in the group relationship. The transaction was treated as a transaction between jointly controlled companies for the purpose of providing the former holders of the shares in Omnicar A/S with shares in OmniCar Holding AB on a pro rata basis and there  was thus no change in the group of owners.

 The consolidated financial statements thus take the form of merged financial statements, i.e. as if the Group was formed on 1 January 2017. Since OmniCar Holding AB was formed in May 2017, no comparative figures for the first quarter of 2017 are available for the parent company.

CEO’s review on Q2 

Highlights 

  • Looking at our net loss for Q2 2019 it was around SEK 2,5 million – A very significant reduction compared to previous quarter. The closure cost of Omnicar A/S amount to around SEK 30 million, due to write-down of equity investments. 
  • As of 1 July 2019, the Omnicar group consists of Omnicar Holding AB, Omnicar AB in Sweden and Omnicar Importer ApS in Denmark. We have very limited debt (only around SEK 1.5 million) but due to a corresponding VAT refund coming in soon, our accounts payable and receivable 

will achieve breakeven.

  • Looking at our operations, we will present black numbers (before listing costs) in our Q3 2019 report and a revenue around the same level as in Q2 2019. The costs of being  a listed company on the Spotlightmarket are significant, but we will continue this path and aim to regain investors’ trust when we present our results in the coming months.
  • We have a very strong solution and our vision is to be best in class. Many of the leading Scandinavian car brands benefit from it and we pride ourselves on the excellent client relationships and endorsements that they have given us. 

Q2 2019 was the quarter where Omnicar Holding AB had to change everything – it was a rough quarter, but I believe we stand stronger today. Below, I will explain in detail why we made the decisions we did in Q2 2019, where we are today and why we stand stronger.

Why we made the decisions we did in Q2 2019 

In our Q3 2018 and Q4 2018 reports we met the forecasts that were announced in our earlier reports in terms of revenue and earnings. Our Q1 2019 results were around SEK 4.5 million in revenue, a +50% revenue increase compared to one year ago, a very significant revenue increase. Our net loss was only SEK 4.6 million – again a very significant cost reduction compared to previous quarters (our net loss in Q3 2018 was SEK 9.9 million). 

During Q2 we announced our rights issue, but despite the revenue increase and the cost reduction, very few shareholders were attracted to invest. Only 15% of the issue volume was subscribed by shareholders (including my own subscription of SEK 1.250 million). Consequently, our guarantors had to step in.

Based on the above, we had to accept the fact that with the current investor environment, we cannot attract sufficient capital to support the current growth strategy. As a result, we decided to downscale the company’s cost base in order to ensure that it matches our revenue. As a result, Omnicar Holding AB’s board of directors decided to liquidate Omnicar A/S as Omnicar A/S accounted for almost 80% of all our costs.

Liquidating costs were estimated in the range of SEK 7-9 million. As a consequence, Omnicar Holding AB filed a petition in bankruptcy for Omnicar A/S in Denmark as Omnicar A/S is unable to meet its obligations to OmniCar Holding AB.

Omnicar Holding AB has in the previous years invested around SEK 37 million in Omnicar A/S. This amount has now been charged to the profit and loss account.

Where we are today

As of 1 July 2019, the Omnicar group consists of Omnicar Holding AB, Omnicar AB in Sweden and Omnicar Importer ApS in Denmark. We have very limited debt (only around SEK 1.5 million) but due to a corresponding VAT refund coming in soon, our accounts payable and receivable will achieve breakeven.

Looking at our operations, we will present black numbers (before listing costs) in our Q3 2019 report and a revenue around the same level as in Q2 2019. The costs of being a listed company on the Spotlightmarket are significant, but we will continue this path and aim to regain investors’ trust when we present our results in the coming months.

 Our car importer solution has gained momentum in 2019. We have just released a new version and it’s now a full-scale automotive aftermarket solution with lead management, webshop, service agreements management and service and repair booking.

 We see an increased interest in the range of products and expect to add more car brands and car importers to our solution in 2019.

 All of our revenue is now based on car importers.

Why we stand stronger

We no longer depend on new capital and will have a more solid and focused operation. Now we can move forward and build a profitable business, when revenue grows, the organization will grow accordingly.

Now we are no longer in a situation where we depend   on new capital in order to realize the company’s strategy.

We don’t have any non-profitable customers and we have discontinued all software development to all stand-alone customers – this has resulted in a much more focused operation.

Our focus will now be on more large-scale operations such as single and multi-brand car importers and commercial partnering with financial leasing companies.

We have a very strong solution and our vision is to be best in class. Many of the leading Scandinavian car brands benefit from it and we pride ourselves on the excellent client relationships and endorsements that they have given us.
