Continued momentum into 2024, in-line with expectations
W.A.G payment solutions plc ("Eurowag", or the "Group") a leading pan-European integrated payments and mobility platform focused on the commercial road transportation industry ("CRT"), today announces its trading update for the three-month period ending 31 March 2024.
Martin Vohánka, CEO y Fundador dijo:
"We delivered double-digit organic revenue growth in the first quarter despite the continued macroeconomic headwinds across Europe. Our sales teams continue to focus on cross-selling our products across our customer base as well as acquiring new customers. The development of our digital platform continues at pace, as we prepare for the soft launch in Q4 this year. This platform will accelerate our business growth and drive greater efficiencies for our customers. We are encouraged by the solid progress demonstrated at the start of the year and re-iterate our near and medium-term guidance."
Q1 financial highlights:
· Net revenue grew 31.0% to €68.4 million, supported by sustained organic growth and the contribution from our Inelo acquisition.
· Organic net revenue grew 10.0% to €55.2 million1 in-line with management expectations:
o Los ingresos orgánicos de soluciones de pago crecieron un 8.2%1 (Q4 23: 7.6%), supported by 10.8% growth in active trucks and increasing Toll revenue due to implementation of CO2 charges in Germany and Austria, which was offset by continued macroeconomic headwinds across Europe and continued lower kilometres driven in the market.
o Mobility solutions organic revenues grew 14.7%1 (Q4 23: 9.8%) as a result of effective cross-selling.
· Net revenue for the last twelve months grew 34.3% to €272.7 million, with organic growth of 11.2%1.

Q1 operational highlights
· El crecimiento de los ingresos sigue estando respaldado por un sólido desempeño de los KPI no financieros:
o El número medio de clientes activos de soluciones de pago aumentó de 17,843 en el tercer trimestre de 1 a 2023 en el tercer trimestre de 19,232, lo que representa un crecimiento interanual del 1%.
o Average number of payment solutions active trucks rose from 91,288 in Q1 2023 to 101,183 in Q1 2024, representing 10.8% year-on-year growth. The quarter-on-quarter growth was a result of a focus by the sales teams on new acquisitions across our markets, building a customer base to support our move to a greater subscription model in the future.
