Overview

We are a global leader of Artificial Intelligence-of-Things ("AIoT") solutions providing valuable business intelligence for managing high-value enterprise and mid-market assets that improve operational efficiencies.

We are headquartered in Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey, with offices located around the globe

Our Unity data highway and AIoT ecosystem is the centerpiece of our strategy. Unity has the capability to ingest data from multiple data sources, harmonizing and transforming the dataset, and delivering simply understood insights through a unified Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS") platform.

Unity provides mission-critical solutions from warehouse to trailer to vehicle, allowing customers to consolidate suppliers and gain end-to-end in a single pane of glass.

Unity enables customers to consume their data in multiple ways, from data-powered applications to unified operations integrations, which provide the ability to improve performance of the asset, the individual in charge of the asset and the business process, continuously improving our customers' business performance.

Within the Unity ecosystem, our Powerfleet for Warehouse AIoT solutions are designed to provide on-premise or in-facility asset and operator management, monitoring, and visibility for warehouse and factory trucks such as forklifts, man-lifts, tuggers and ground support equipment at airports. These solutions utilize a variety of communications capabilities such as Bluetooth®, WiFi, and proprietary radio frequency.

Additionally within the Unity ecosystem, our Powerfleet for On-Road AIoT solutions are designed to provide bumper-to-bumper AIoT asset management, monitoring, and visibility for over-the-road based assets such as heavy trucks, dry-van trailers, refrigerated trailers and shipping containers and their associated cargo. These AIoT solutions provide mobile-asset tracking and condition-monitoring solutions to meet the transportation market's desire for greater visibility, safety, security, and productivity throughout global supply chains. Our On-Road AIoT solutions extend to all mobile assets, whether it is a rental car, a private fleet, or automotive original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") partners. We achieve this by providing critical information that can be used to increase revenues, reduce costs, enhance safety and sustainability, deliver compliance, and improve customer service.

Our patented technologies are proven solutions for organizations that must monitor and analyze their assets to improve safety, increase efficiency, reduce costs, and drive profitability. Our offerings are sold under the global brands Powerfleet, Pointer, Cellocator, MiX by Powerfleet and Fleet Complete.

We have an established history of Internet-of-Things device development, AI and data science expertise, and innovation creating devices that can withstand harsh and rugged environments. With 51 patents and patent applications and over 25 years' experience, we believe we are well positioned to evolve our offerings for even greater value to customers through our cloud-based applications for unified operations.

We deliver advanced data solutions that connect mobile assets to increase visibility, operational efficiency and profitability. Across our spectrum of vertical markets, we differentiate ourselves by developing mobility platforms that collect data from unique sensors. Because we are data source and OEM agnostic, we help organizations view and manage their mixed assets homogeneously. All of our solutions are paired with SaaS and analytics platforms to provide an even deeper level of insights and understanding of how assets are utilized and how drivers and operators operate those assets. These insights include a full set of key performance indicators to drive operational and strategic decisions. Our customers typically get a return on their investment in less than 12 months from deployment.

Our enterprise software applications have AI and machine learning capabilities and are built to integrate with our customers' management systems to provide a single, integrated view of asset and operator activity across multiple locations while providing real-time enterprise-wide benchmarks and peer-industry comparisons. We look for analytics, as well as the data contained therein, to differentiate us from our competitors, adding significant value to customers' business operations, and helping to contribute to their bottom line. Our solutions also feature open application programming interfaces for additional integrations and development to boost other enterprise management systems and third-party applications.

We market and sell our Unity ecosystem and our connected AIoT data solutions to a wide range of customers in the commercial and government sectors. Our customers operate in diverse markets, such as manufacturing, automotive manufacturing, wholesale and retail, food and grocery distribution, pharmaceutical and medical distribution, construction, mining, utilities, aerospace, vehicle rental, as well as logistics, shipping, transportation, energy and field services. Traditionally, these businesses have relied on multiple vendors, as well as manual, often paper-based, processes or on-premise legacy software to operate their high-value assets, manage workforce resources, and distributed sites; and face environmental, safety, and other regulatory requirements. In today's landscape, it is crucial for these businesses to invest in solutions that enable easy analysis and sharing of real-time information, increasingly consolidating their suppliers.

Corporate History and Information

I.D. Systems, Inc. ("I.D. Systems") was incorporated in the State of Delaware in 1993. Powerfleet, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware in February 2019 for the purpose of effectuating the transactions pursuant to which we acquired Pointer Telocation Ltd. ("Pointer") (the "Pointer Merger"). Upon the closing of the Pointer Merger, Powerfleet became the parent entity of I.D. Systems and Pointer.

Our principal executive office is located at 123 Tice Boulevard, Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey 07677, and our phone number is (201) 996-9000. Our common stock is currently traded on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol "AIOT." Our website is www.powerfleet.com. Information contained on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus and should not be considered a part of this prospectus.

Recent Developments

On October 1, 2024, we consummated the transactions contemplated by a Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 18, 2024 (as amended, the "Purchase Agreement"), by and among Golden Eagle Topco LP, the persons that are party to the Purchase Agreement under the heading "Other Sellers," us and Powerfleet Canada Holdings Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of Ontario and our wholly owned subsidiary, pursuant to which we acquired Fleet Complete for an aggregate purchase price of $200 million, subject to certain customary working capital and other adjustments as described in the Purchase Agreement (the "FC Acquisition"). As a result, Fleet Complete became our indirect, wholly owned subsidiary.

A portion of the purchase price payable in the FC Acquisition was satisfied by the issuance by us of 4,285,714 shares of our common stock (the "Rollover Shares") to Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan Board ("OTPP"), which was an existing indirect shareholder of Fleet Complete, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

Concurrently with the closing of the FC Acquisition, we consummated a private placement contemplated by a Subscription Agreement, dated as of September 18, 2024 (the "Subscription Agreement"), by and among us and certain of the selling stockholders, pursuant to which we issued to such selling stockholders an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of our common stock (the "Private Placement Shares") at a price per share of $3.50 for aggregate gross proceeds of $70 million.

The Subscription Agreement requires us to file one or more registration statements, as necessary, to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), the resale of the Private Placement Shares no later than 60 days after the closing of the private placement. In connection with the issuance of the Rollover Shares, we also entered into a registration rights agreement with OTPP (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), providing OTPP with the same resale registration rights provided to the selling stockholders that entered into the Subscription Agreement.

This registration statement has been filed to comply with our obligation to register under the Securities Act the resale of the Private Placement Shares and the Rollover Shares.

The selling stockholders identified in the table below may sell from time to time up to 24,285,714 shares of our common stock.

The table below sets forth, to our knowledge, information concerning the beneficial ownership of shares of our common stock by the selling stockholders as of November 25, 2024. The information in the table below with respect to the selling stockholders has been obtained from the respective selling stockholders. When we refer to the "selling stockholders" in this prospectus, we mean the selling stockholders listed in the table below as offering shares, as well as their respective donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest. The table below assumes that the selling stockholders will sell all of the shares offered for sale hereby.

Plan of Distribution

The selling stockholders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
privately negotiated transactions;
short sales;
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
a combination of any such methods of sale; and
any other method permitted by applicable law.

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act, amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The aggregate proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act; provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock or interests therein may be "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, and any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the shares of common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

To the extent applicable, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, that arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, including this prospectus, financial statements and schedules, and all other documents filed as a part thereof, as amended at the time of effectiveness of the registration statement.

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the requirements of Rule 144, including without limitation, using our commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the requirements of Rule 144(c)(1) with respect to public information about our company and to timely file all reports required to be filed by us under the Exchange Act.

We have agreed to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part effective until the earliest of: (i) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this registration statement or Rule 144 under the Securities Act; (ii) the date on which the securities may be resold without restriction by the selling stockholder holding such securities pursuant to Rule 144, including without any volume limitations or manner-of-sale restrictions and without the requirement to be in compliance with Rule 144(c)(1) (or any successor thereto) promulgated under the Securities Act; or (iii) two years after the date of effectiveness of the registration statement.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Powerfleet ("Powerfleet" or the "Company") acquired the issued share capital of MiX Telematics Limited (now MiX Telematics Proprietary Limited) ("MiX Telematics") on April 2, 2024, including ordinary shares represented by American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"), from MiX Telematics shareholders in exchange for shares of Powerfleet common stock at an exchange ratio of 0.12762 shares of Powerfleet common stock for each MiX Telematics ordinary share (and 3.19056 shares of Powerfleet common stock for each MiX Telematics ADS), resulting in Powerfleet issuing 70,704,110 shares of Powerfleet common stock to acquire 554,020,612 MiX Telematics ordinary shares, net of treasury shares, based on the shares in issue at April 2, 2024 (the "MiX Combination").

The MiX Combination is accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of the combined company (being Powerfleet following consummation of the MiX Combination) (the "pro forma financial information") is based on Powerfleet's historical consolidated financial statements and MiX Telematics as adjusted to give effect to the MiX Combination.

The pro forma financial information herein illustrates the impact of the MiX Combination had it been effective on January 1, 2023 for purposes of the pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 and three months ended March 31, 2024.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with Powerfleet's historical financial statements and accompanying notes included in Powerfleet's Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as well as the audited annual financial statements and accompanying notes of MiX Telematics for the years ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 included in this registration statement and the MiX Telematics historical financial statements and accompanying notes included in MiX Telematics' Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the nine months ended December 31, 2023.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 has been presented using Powerfleet's audited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended December 31, 2023 and MiX Telematics' unaudited consolidated statements of income and comprehensive loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and adding MiX Telematics' unaudited consolidated statements of income and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The unaudited consolidated statement of income and comprehensive loss of MiX Telematics for the three months ended March 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income of MiX Telematics as of March 31, 2023 included in MiX Telematics' Annual Report on Form 10-K and the unaudited consolidated statement of income and comprehensive loss of MiX Telematics for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 included in MiX Telematics' Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

On May 9, 2024, and subsequent to the close of the MiX Combination, Powerfleet announced a change in its fiscal year-end from December 31 to March 31. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 has been presented using Powerfleet's audited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and MiX Telematics' audited consolidated statements of income and comprehensive loss for the year ended March 31, 2024 and deducting MiX Telematics' unaudited consolidated statements of income and comprehensive loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2023.

The transaction accounting adjustments for the MiX Combination consist of those necessary to account for the MiX Combination. Separately, Powerfleet raised new net debt funding of $102.7 million in order to fully redeem all of its outstanding Series A convertible preferred stock (the "Series A preferred stock") concurrently with the closing of the MiX Combination. On April 2, 2024, the Series A preferred stock was redeemed in full for $90.3 million. The redemption amount was funded with the new debt proceeds raised. The adjustments related to the issuance of this debt are shown in a separate column as "Other transaction accounting adjustments."

The pro forma financial information is presented for illustrative purposes only and does not necessarily reflect what the combined company's financial position or results of operations would have been had the MiX Combination and the related debt financing occurred on the dates indicated. They also may not be useful in predicting the future financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. Powerfleet's actual financial condition and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to a variety of factors.

Items Not Reflected in the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not include any adjustments related to future restructuring or one-time charges, future initiatives related to potential profit improvements or potential cost savings, which may result from the MiX Combination. Powerfleet is currently developing plans to integrate the operations of Powerfleet and MiX Telematics, which may involve material costs. Powerfleet incurred $13.1 million in costs related to the MiX Combination, and MiX Telematics incurred $11.3 million in costs. The pro forma fee adjustments below exclude any costs incurred post the historical period presented by MiX Telematics directly as the acquiree in the MiX Combination in accordance with SEC guidance. Powerfleet expects that its integration and cost saving initiatives, as well as other potential synergies, will result in anticipated annual profit improvements of approximately $25 million across cost of revenues, sales and general administrative expense, and research and development expense, which are expected to be achieved by the end of fiscal 2026. Integration teams have been formed to further develop and execute detailed implementation programs, the related costs of which are currently being determined.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

Note 1 - Basis of pro forma presentation

Powerfleet acquired the issued share capital of MiX Telematics on April 2, 2024, including ordinary shares represented by ADSs, by issuing shares of Powerfleet common stock to MiX Telematics shareholders at an exchange ratio of 0.12762 shares of Powerfleet common stock for each MiX Telematics ordinary share (and 3.19056 shares of Powerfleet common stock for each MiX Telematics ADS), resulting in Powerfleet issuing 70,704,110 shares of Powerfleet common stock to acquire 554,020,612 MiX Telematics ordinary shares, net of treasury shares, based on the shares in issue at April 2, 2024.

Consideration of $362.0 million is based on Powerfleet's closing share price of $5.12 on April 2, 2024.

The following table summarizes the components of the consideration (in thousands except per share information and the exchange ratio):

MiX Telematics ordinary shares outstanding 554,021
Exchange ratio 0.12762
Total shares of Powerfleet common stock to be issued 70,704
Powerfleet stock price $ 5.12
Fair value of Powerfleet common stock transferred to MiX Telematics shareholders $ 362,005
Replacement of acquiree's equity awards by the acquirer $ 7,818
Total fair value of preliminary consideration $ 369,823

Transaction costs of $13.1 million directly attributable to the MiX Combination were expensed. For the year ended December 31, 2023, $3.5 million has already been incurred and included in the historical information and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 $2.3 million has already been included in the historical information; therefore, $7.3 million has been recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2023. As of March 31, 2024, $2.3 million has already been included in the historical information and was therefore reversed as the transaction was assumed to be effective on January 1, 2023. Any fees payable based on the Powerfleet share price were calculated based on Powerfleet's closing share price of $5.12 on April 2, 2024, which was the date the MiX Combination was consummated.

A preliminary valuation analysis of the fair value of MiX Telematics' assets acquired and liabilities to be assumed was performed. The preliminary purchase price allocation reflects the adjustment of historical intangible assets acquired by Powerfleet to their estimated fair values. As part of the preliminary valuation analysis, Powerfleet identified intangible assets, including developed technology, trade names and customer relationships.

This preliminary purchase price allocation has been used to prepare the transaction accounting adjustments in the pro forma statement of income. The final purchase price allocation will be determined when Powerfleet has completed the detailed valuations and necessary calculations as described in more detail in the explanatory notes below. The preliminary purchase price of the MiX Combination has been allocated on a preliminary basis to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on management's current estimate of fair value with the excess cost over net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired being allocated to goodwill. Management retained the services of a third party to assist in the preliminary valuation of the identifiable intangible assets acquired. These allocations are subject to change pending a final analysis of the preliminary purchase price of MiX Telematics, the identification of additional acquired assets and assumed liabilities and the allocation of the final purchase price to the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The completion of Powerfleet's accounting for the MiX Combination, including assessing accounting policies for conformity, the determination of final purchase price, the identification of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the allocation of the final purchase price to the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities and changes in the amortization periods of amortizable assets will cause differences from the information presented herein and those differences may be material.

17

The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of MiX Telematics' identifiable intangible assets and their estimated useful lives and uses a straight-line method of amortization:

(In thousands) Estimated fair value Estimated useful life in years Amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024
Trade name $ 10,000 14 $ 714 $ 179
Developed technology 30,000 5 6,000 1,500
Customer relationships 113,000 13 8,692 2,173
Total identifiable intangible assets and related amortization $ 153,000 $ 15,407 3,852
Total amortization recorded (6,494 ) (1,581 )
Transaction accounting adjustments to amortization $ 8,913 $ 2,271

These preliminary estimates of fair value and estimated useful lives will likely differ from final amounts Powerfleet will calculate after completing a detailed valuation analysis, and the difference could have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

Note 2 - Transaction accounting adjustments

The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are as follows:

(A) Cost of revenues includes the following adjustments (in thousands):

(i) Additional share-based payment cost recognized for the accelerated vesting of the Powerfleet stock options and restricted stock on April 2, 2024.
(ii) The adjustment to reverse amortization of other assets relates to the preliminary purchase price allocation adjustment to remove the MiX Telematics historical capitalized commission included in other assets.
(iii) The fair value of the replacement awards for the MiX Telematics equity plans is the difference between the fair value of the original MiX Telematics awards and the fair value of the replacement Powerfleet awards granted to existing MiX Telematics employees. The valuation was performed as at April 2, 2024. $7.8 million related to pre-combination vesting was taken into account in the consideration transferred (Note 1). The remaining fair value of the replacement awards is recognized over the remaining vesting period as post combination compensation costs.
18
(C) Tax effects at the South African tax rate of 27% on amortization of intangible assets and reversal of other assets.
(D) Pro forma earnings per share data is based on the weighted-average shares outstanding of Powerfleet common stock for the period presented and assumes the issuance of approximately 70.7 million shares of Powerfleet common stock at the closing of the MiX Combination and the vesting of 1,368,567 unvested restricted stock at January 1, 2023. Powerfleet's historical earnings per share is computed based on the allocation of Powerfleet's net income to common shareholders divided by the weighted-average common shares outstanding under the two-class method.

Note 3 - Other transaction accounting adjustments

(E)

Powerfleet raised gross proceeds of $103.8 million (or $102.7 million, net of fees of $1.1 million) from a debt financing in order to fully redeem all outstanding Series A preferred stock. The Series A preferred stock was redeemable for $90.3 million. The debt financing consisted of senior secured debt ($18.8 million from Israel and $85.0 million from South Africa).

Represents the net increase to interest expense resulting from interest on the new debt to finance the redemption of the Series A preferred stock and the amortization of related debt issuance costs as follows:

(F) Tax expense on the additional interest related to funding raised.
(G) The redemption is assumed to take place on January 1, 2023; therefore, the Accretion of preferred stock and Preferred stock dividends recognized by Powerfleet has been reversed.
(H) Reclassifications have been made to MiX Telematics' audited consolidated statement of income for the years ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, and the nine months ended December 31, 2023 included in MiX Telematics' Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, to conform the presentation to Powerfleet's accounting policies for:
a. research and development expenses included in administration and other expenses presented separately by Powerfleet; and
b. combine sales and marketing expenses and administration and other expenses to conform to the Powerfleet presentation.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the board of directors

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of MiX Telematics Limited and subsidiaries (the "Company"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of income/(loss), comprehensive income/(loss), changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively referred to as the "financial statements").

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

F-2

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the board of directors (continued)

Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements (continued)

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Nature of the Business

MiX Telematics Limited and its consolidated subsidiaries ("the Company") is a global provider of fleet and mobile asset management solutions delivered as Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS"). The Company's solutions enable customers to manage, optimize and protect their investments in commercial fleets, mobile assets or personal vehicles. The Company's solutions enable a wide range of customers, from large enterprise fleets to small fleet operators and consumers, to reduce fuel and other operating costs, improve efficiency, enhance regulatory compliance, promote driver safety, manage risk and mitigate theft. The Company's solutions mostly rely on our proprietary, highly scalable technology platforms, which allows it to collect, analyze and deliver information based on data from customers' vehicles. Using intuitive, web-based interfaces, reports or mobile applications, the Company's fleet customers can access large volumes of real-time and historical data, monitor the location and status of their drivers and vehicles and analyze a wide number of key metrics across their fleet operations.

MiX Telematics Limited is a public company incorporated and domiciled in South Africa. On April 2, 2024, the transactions contemplated by the Implementation Agreement (the "Powerfleet Transaction"), dated as of October 10, 2023, with PowerFleet, Inc. ("Powerfleet") and Main Street 2000 Proprietary Limited ("Main Street") were consummated. On this day, the Company's ordinary shares, which were publicly traded on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE: MIX), and its American Depositary Shares, which were listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: MIXT), were delisted and the Company became an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Powerfleet. Refer to note 21for more information.

The address of the Company's principal executive office is 750 Park of Commerce Boulevard, Suite 310, Boca Raton, Florida, 33487.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These accounting policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Basis of preparation and consolidation

The Company's consolidated financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024 are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") and Regulation S-X Rule 3-05. They should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes thereto. All subsidiaries have been consolidated, including variable interest entities ("VIEs") of which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated except to the extent the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adjusted to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Company. All subsidiaries have the same reporting dates as the Company.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, allowances for doubtful accounts, the assessment of expected cash flows used in evaluating goodwill and long-lived assets for impairment, the amortization period for deferred commissions, the determination of useful lives of the Company's customer relationships, contingencies, the classification of devices and other hardware as in-vehicle devices (equipment) versus inventory based on the future expectation of the different types of customer contracts, income and deferred taxes, unrecognized tax benefits and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements.

We have considered the impact of rising inflation, fuel prices, global politics, sanctions and the impact thereof on global trade on the estimates and assumptions used. As of March 31, 2024, we have taken into account the impact of the above on goodwill sensitivities and impairment assessments. However, future changes in economic conditions could have an impact on future estimates and judgements used.

F-9

Revenue from contracts with customers

Significant judgments

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of distinct promised products and/or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products and/or services. The Company enters into contracts that include the supply of fleet and mobile asset management equipment. For such contracts, the Company utilizes significant judgment to determine whether control of the equipment has transferred to the customer, and in instances where it does, it recognizes revenue in accordance with Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"). When control of the equipment does not transfer to the customer, which is when legal title does not transfer to the customer, our judgement is that the customer does not have the right to direct the use of the equipment when the customer does not operate the equipment or make any significant decisions about its use. In these instances, the Company uses the equipment to provide fleet and mobile asset management services to the customer. Accordingly, these arrangements, which comprise virtually all of the transactions in which legal title does not pass to the customer, are not within the scope of ASC 842, Leases ("ASC 842"). Instead, for such contracts we have concluded that they are service contracts comprising a single performance obligation, and revenue is recognized over time pursuant to ASC 606.

Recognition and measurement

The Company provides fleet and mobile asset management solutions to its customers, and its principal revenue streams are (1) Subscription and (2) Hardware and other. Subscription revenue is recognized over time and hardware and other revenue is recognized at a point-in-time.

To provide services to customers, a device is required which collects and transmits information collected from the vehicle or other asset. Fleet customers may also obtain other items of hardware, virtually all of which are functionally dependent on the device. Some customers obtain control of the device and other hardware (where legal title transfers to the customer); while other customers do not (where legal title remains with the Company). A contract arises on the acceptance of a customer's purchase order, which is typically executed in writing.

In instances where the customer obtains control of the device and other hardware, which is typically upon installation or delivery to the customer, the device, the other hardware, the installation thereof and the service are each accounted for as separate performance obligations. The total transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation using relative stand-alone selling prices. Revenue allocated to the device and other hardware is recognized upon delivery, and revenue allocated to installation is recognized once the installation is complete, since installation is completed within a day. Revenue related to the service performance obligation (subscription) is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected contractual term, since we consistently deliver telematics services on a continuous basis over that period.

In instances where the customer does not obtain control of the device and other hardware, which is functionally dependent on the device, there is only a single performance obligation, namely the service. The customer is not able to direct the use of these items, and accordingly these contracts do not contain leases. In these instances, the devices and other hardware are used by the Company to provide the services. The total revenue from these contracts is recognized as subscription revenue on a straight-line basis over the expected contractual term, since we consistently deliver telematics services on a continuous basis over that period.

Revenue is presented net of discounts, value added tax, returns and after eliminating sales within the Company.

The Company distributes devices and other hardware to certain small fleet operators and consumers through distributors. Distributors act as agents and hardware revenue is only recognized when the distributor sells the hardware unit to the end customer. Once a unit is sold to a customer, the customer enters into a service agreement directly with the Company. The obligation to supply the service and the credit risk rests with the Company. The subscription revenue is recognized when the service is rendered.

F-10

The Company also sells hardware to motor vehicle dealerships for fitment into their vehicle trading stock. These dealerships purchase the hardware from the Company and are considered to act as a principal in the contract because they obtain title to the hardware, bear the risks and rewards of ownership and accordingly control the hardware purchased. The buyer of the vehicle then enters into a service-only contract with the Company. Revenue is recognized upon sale of the hardware to the dealership and subscription revenue is recognized as the services are provided to the customer.

The Company distributes devices and other hardware to enterprise fleet customers through value-added resellers. Value-added resellers are considered to act as a principal for the sale of hardware to the end customer, and revenue is recognized by the Company upon sale of the hardware unit to the resellers. Value-added resellers are also considered to act as a principal for the provision of the service to end customers because, even though the resellers do not provide the service themselves, the resellers control the right to receive the service before that right is transferred to the end customer, the resellers have the primary responsibility for fulfilling the promise to provide the service to the end customer, and the resellers have full discretion in establishing the prices charged to the end customer. Accordingly, subscription revenue is recognized as the service is provided to the resellers.

Contract liabilities (deferred revenue)

Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing customers or collecting payments from customers. Typically, corporate customers pay in arrears, while consumer customers pay in advance.

When customers are invoiced in advance for subscription services that will be provided over periods of more than one month, or pay in advance of service periods of more than one month, deferred revenue liabilities, or contract liabilities, are recorded.

In all other instances, the Company has a right to consideration for subscription services from customers in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to customers of the Company's performance completed to date. Therefore, revenue is recognized for the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice as a practical expedient. The transaction price estimated therefore does not include any estimated amounts of variable consideration that are constrained. Estimates of variable consideration constrained may include fixed or variable price escalations based on an index; amounts charged for de-and-re-installations, installation cancellations, wasted time and waiting time and amounts charged for actual data usage and/or actual satellite access, amongst others. These estimates will simply be recognized as revenue as and when they occur. The future subscription services will be provided over varying periods from 1 to 60 months.

Contracts for which the Company receives a payment for a time period which is more than 12 months in advance are considered to comprise a significant financing component. Interest expense is accrued on the deferred revenue liability. This results in the revenue being measured at the future value of the payments received.

Deferred commissions

Commissions incurred to acquire contracts are capitalized and amortized, unless the amortization period is 12 months or less. The commission capitalized is attributed to the specific performance obligations in the related contract. Commission is considered commensurate with respect to a particular contract when equivalent/comparable commission is payable upon the extension or renewal of such a contract or upon the customer entering into a new contract. To the extent commission capitalized is commensurate, the commission attributable to service will be amortized over the minimum contractual period or, if shorter, the expected life of the contract. To the extent it is not commensurate, the commission capitalized that is attributable to service is amortized over the expected life of the contract. Typically, with regard to month-to-month contracts, commission payable is not considered commensurate for such contracts because no commission is payable as and when the customer extends each month by not giving notice. Accordingly, commission incurred on such contracts that is attributable to service is amortized over the expected life of the contract taking account of expected extensions/renewals. Commission capitalized that is attributable to hardware or installation is amortized in full at the time the related hardware, or installation, revenue is recognized.

Recurring commission is commission which is payable for each month the customer remains with the Company. The amount capitalized reflects the total commission payable over the minimum contractual period or, if shorter, the expected life of the contract, together with the effect of the time value of money, where significant.

F-11

As of March 31, 2023 and 2024, deferred commissions amounted to $6.0 million and $9.1 million respectively, which are included within Other assets on the Balance Sheet.

Amortization expense of external commissions capitalized is recognized in cost of sales, while that of internal commissions earned by the Company's sales personnel is recognized in sales and marketing costs. Commissions not capitalized under the 12-month practical expedient are also classified in the same manner.

Foreign currency

Functional and reporting currency

Each subsidiary is consolidated by translating its assets, liabilities and results into the functional currency of its immediate parent company, and subsequently the consolidated position, determined in South African Rand, is translated into U.S. Dollars (reporting currency). Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Equity items are translated at historical exchange rates, while income and expense items are translated using average exchange rates for the period. Foreign currency translation adjustments are reported in stockholders' equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/loss until disposal.

The movement in the foreign currency translation adjustments is as follows (in thousands):

As of March 31,
2023 2024
Cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments, beginning of year $ 3,909 $ (13,399 )
Foreign currency translation losses for the year, net of tax (17,308 ) (2,749 )
Cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments, end of year $ (13,399 ) $ (16,148 )

Transactions and balances

Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded by the Company and its subsidiaries in their respective functional currencies using the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. All resulting foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized in Other income/expense in the Statement of Income. However, gains and losses arising on long-term monetary assets held by a group entity in a foreign subsidiary for which settlement is neither planned nor anticipated within the foreseeable future, form part of the net investment of the foreign operation. These foreign exchange gains and losses are recognized as part of the foreign currency translation adjustments in accumulated other comprehensive income/loss until disposal.

Financial Assets

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and deposits held on call with banks; all of which are available for use by the Company and have an original maturity of less than three months.

Restricted cash

Restricted cash comprises deposits backing guarantees issued by financial institutions on behalf of the Company in respect of the Company's obligations under certain lease, supply and other agreements, and cash held by MiX Telematics Enterprise BEE Trust (a VIE which is consolidated). Cash held by the Trust is to be used solely for the benefit of its beneficiaries. As at March 31, 2023 and 2024, the cash held by the Trust comprised $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

Accounts receivables

Accounts receivables are amounts due from customers for goods sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. Since the terms of payment are not more than 12 months, accounts receivables are recognized initially at their transaction price. Subsequent to initial recognition, accounts receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less an allowance for doubtful accounts, which reflects expected credit losses.

F-12

Allowance for doubtful accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivables is calculated by considering all relevant information, internal and external about the collectability of cash flows, including information about past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions to appropriately reflect the risk of losses over the remaining contractual lives of the assets. Historical loss rates, calculated as actual losses over a period as a percentage of revenue, are adjusted for current conditions and management's expectations about future economic conditions.

The allowance is measured on a collective basis where management groups their customers appropriately based on their credit risk characteristics.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is a valuation account and the asset's carrying amount is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Actual write-downs are recorded when the asset is deemed uncollectible after all efforts to recover have yielded no results.

Loans to external parties

Loans to external parties are recognized initially at fair value, and subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less expected credit losses over the lifetime of the loan.

Expected credit losses are determined using management's estimate of the probability of default and the value of the underlying security. Loans to external parties are included within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Credit risk arises from restricted cash, cash and cash equivalents as well as credit exposures to customers and loans to external parties.The Company analyses the credit risk for each of its new customers based on predefined requirements before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for individual accounts. Management regularly reviews receipts and the fair value of loans to external parties. Expected credit losses are provided for accordingly. Cash investments are only placed with reputable financial institutions. Management believes that financial institutions that hold the Company's deposits are financially credit worthy and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to those balances.

Fair value measurements

Other than the contingent consideration, the Company has no financial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, except for loans to external parties, approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the loans to external parties is determined using unobservable market data (Level 3 inputs), that represent management's estimate of current interest rates that a commercial lender would charge the borrowers. The fair value of the contingent consideration is categorized as a Level 3 fair value, based on the inputs in a discounted cash flow valuation.

When certain triggering events occur, the Company is required to assess non-financial assets for impairment. When impaired, non-financial assets are written down to fair value. The Company uses valuation approaches that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset in the principal or most advantageous market.

Fair value is determined in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and is categorized as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices); and

Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs).

F-13

Inventories

Inventories comprise of components and finished goods which are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using a first-in, first-out, actual cost or weighted average cost basis. The cost of inventories includes the cost of manufacturing as charged by third parties and excludes borrowing costs. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation, and is based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Impairments of inventory are not subsequently reversed. During the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, $0.8 million and $0.6 million was recognized, respectively, as a charge in cost of sales as a result of the write-down of inventory to net realizable value.

Inventories comprise of the following (in thousands):

As of March 31,
2023 2024
Components $ 3,131 $ 875
Finished goods 3,146 4,316
Total inventories 6,277 5,191
Less: Accumulated write-down to net realizable value (1,341 ) (1,049 )
Inventory, net $ 4,936 $ 4,142

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes all expenditure directly attributable to the acquisition of the items of property, plant and equipment. Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance are charged to the Consolidated Statements of Income in the reporting period in which they are incurred.

The cost of in-vehicle devices installed in vehicles (including installation and shipping costs) as well as the cost of uninstalled in-vehicle devices, are capitalized as property, plant and equipment. The Company depreciates installed in-vehicle devices on a straight-line basis over their expected useful lives, commencing upon installation, whereas uninstalled in-vehicle devices are not depreciated until installed. The related depreciation expense is recorded as part of cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method to reduce the cost of the asset to its residual value over its estimated useful life, as follows:

Plant and equipment 1 - 8 years
Motor vehicles 3 - 7 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 1 - 10 years
Computer and radio equipment 1 - 7 years
In-vehicle devices installed 1 - 8 years

The assets' residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at the end of each reporting period.

Gains or losses on disposal or retirement are recognized within Other income/expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

F-14

Leases

The Company as a lessee

The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date for all leases except for those that have a lease term of 12 months or less and do not contain a purchase option that is reasonably certain to be exercised. The lease payments associated with these leases are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Right-of use assets are initially measured at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the related lease liability adjusted for any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received.

All of the Company's leases which are capitalized are classified as operating leases. This means that the right-of-use asset is depreciated in such a manner, that together with the interest charge on the lease liability, the Company achieves a straight-line total lease expense over the lease period.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:

fixed payments; and
lease payments in an optional renewal period if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option.

The lease liability is measured at commencement based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term using the relevant group entity's incremental borrowing rate at inception of the lease. The lease liability is remeasured when the Company changes its assessment of whether an extension option will be exercised, when a termination notice is served, or when there are other changes to the terms of the lease such as rent concessions or an extension to the lease term that was not initially catered for in the lease agreement.

When the lease liability is remeasured, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset. The adjustment is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income once the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.

The Company presents right-of-use assets within Property, plant and equipment, and lease liabilities within Accrued expenses and other liabilities, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Goodwill

Goodwill is tested for possible impairment at least annually, or when circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. Qualitative factors are first assessed to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Goodwill is allocated to a reporting unit for the purpose of impairment testing. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the carrying value of the reporting unit, to which goodwill has been allocated, is compared to its fair value, and a goodwill impairment charge is recognized for the amount (if any) by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value, limited to the amount of the goodwill. No impairments of goodwill existed as of the most recent testing date of March 31, 2024 or the previous testing date of March 31, 2023.

Reconciliation of Total Goodwill

The following table is a reconciliation of the carrying amount of goodwill at the beginning and end of the reporting period:

As of March 31,
2023 2024
Goodwill
Opening balance $ 44,434 $ 39,258
Business acquired 1,441 -
Foreign currency translation difference (6,617 ) (1,032 )
Balance as of March 31 $ 39,258 $ 38,226

The allocation of goodwill to reportable segments is as follows (in thousands):

As of March 31,
2023 2024
Central Services Organization $ 5,736 $ 5,463
Europe 8,078 8,254
Middle East and Australasia 4,364 4,364
Africa 19,639 18,704
Americas 1,441 1,441
$ 39,258 $ 38,226

F-15

Sensitivity of goodwill to impairment as of March 31, 2024 was as follows:

Central Services Organization Africa Europe Middle East and Australasia Americas
Fair value of reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount by 457.3 % 101.7 % 16.9 % 52.1 % 21.7 %
Post-tax discount rate used to determine fair value 16.3 % 16.3 % 11.4 % 12.2 % 11.7 %
Growth rate used to extrapolate cash flow beyond the budget period 4.7 % 4.7 % 1.5 % 2.3 % 2.0 %
The following mutually exclusive changes will result in nil headroom
Post-tax discount rate applied to the expected cash flow projections 37.1 % 25.7 % 13.0 % 18.0 % 14.3 %
Decrease in the cash flow projections of 82.1 % 50.4 % 16.9 % 52.1 % 17.8 %

If the growth rate in any reporting entity is changed to zero, this does not result in any impairment. Although there were no impairments of goodwill as of March 31, 2024, significant judgement was exercised in determining the fair value of each reporting unit. In particular, to the extent that anticipated new contracts do not materialize and the business strategy does not come to fruition, or key personnel are not retained, the forecasts on which the impairment tests were performed could be negatively impacted.

The Americas reporting unit has been assessed to be the most sensitive to changes in assumptions. A simultaneous increase of 1.7% in discount rate and a decrease of 1.7% in terminal growth rate results in an impairment for the Americas reporting unit. If the cash flows and revenue growth rate for the Americas segment do not meet management projections it could result in an impairment.

Intangible assets

Patents and trademarks

Patents and trademarks acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Patents and trademarks have a finite useful life and are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of patents and trademarks over their estimated useful lives which range from 3 to 10 years.

Customer relationships

Customer relationships acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value at the acquisition date. Customer relationships have a finite useful life and are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is calculated over the expected useful life of the customer relationship ranging from 1 to 10 years and reflects the pattern in which future economic benefits of the customer relationship are expected to be generated. The useful life principally reflects management's view of the average economic life of the customer base and is assessed by reference to factors such as customer churn rates.

Internal-use software and technology

The Company capitalizes as intangible assets, internal-use software acquired or developed solely to meet the Company's internal needs. Costs, excluding general and administrative costs such as general overheads, legal, research, business process engineering and data conversion costs, are capitalized from the date on which management implicitly or explicitly authorizes, or commits to fund, the project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will perform the intended function (application development stage). All costs incurred during the preliminary development stage are expensed. Capitalization ceases when the project is substantially complete and the software is ready for its intended use.

F-16

Costs, including annual licenses, associated with maintaining computer software programs, and training costs are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred for upgrades and enhancements (modifications to existing internal-use software that provides additional functionality) are capitalized during the application development stage.

Software capitalized is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life ranging from 1 to 20 years, commencing on the date when the software is ready for its intended use.

Computer software for external use

Computer software for external use refers to the firmware that is developed by the Company for the devices and other hardware provided to its customers. The costs of developing firmware are expensed as incurred prior to the establishment of its technological feasibility, from which point the development costs are capitalized and recognized as intangible assets. For the periods presented, technological feasibility could only be demonstrated shortly before the release of the firmware, and as a result, the development costs that meet the requirements for capitalization are not material.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Intangible assets that are not ready for use are not subject to amortization but are assessed annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired.

Long-lived assets that are subject to amortization or depreciation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

An asset is written down immediately to its fair value if its carrying amount is greater than its future undiscounted cash flows. Recognized impairment losses are not reversed.

For the purposes of assessing impairment, long-lived assets are grouped with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets and liabilities.

Impairment losses recognized during the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024 were $0.1 million or less for each year.

Contingent consideration

Contingent consideration is classified as a liability and is remeasured to fair value at each reporting date until the contingency is resolved. Changes in fair value that are not measurement period adjustments are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Common stock

Incremental external costs directly attributable to the issuance of new shares or the exercise of stock options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

If a Group company purchases the Company's equity instruments (treasury stock), then the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company as treasury stock until the shares are canceled or reissued. If such ordinary shares are subsequently reissued, then any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company. MiX Telematics Investments Proprietary Ltd ("MiX Investments"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, holds 53,816,750 of the Company's ordinary shares of no par value. These shares are held as treasury stock.

Share repurchases

On May 23, 2017, the Board approved a share repurchase program of up to R270 million (equivalent of $14.3 million as of March 31, 2024) under which the Company could repurchase its ordinary shares, including ADSs. On December 3, 2021, the Board approved an increase to the share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase ordinary shares, including ADSs. Post this increase, and after giving effect to shares already purchased under the program as at December 2, 2021, the Company could repurchase additional shares with a cumulative value of R160 million ($10.0 million). The total value of the whole share repurchase program post the December 3, 2021 increase is R396.5 million ($24.9 million). Subsequent to the approved increase in the share repurchase program shares with a value of R6.6 million (the equivalent of $0.3 million as of March 31, 2024) were repurchased during fiscal year 2023. During fiscal year 2024 shares with a value of R10.2 million (the equivalent of $0.5 million as of March 31, 2024) were repurchased under the share repurchase program.

F-17

During the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, the Company repurchased 1,166,659 and 1,716,207 shares, respectively, for an aggregate repurchase consideration of $0.4 million and $0.5 million respectively. Subsequent to the repurchases during fiscal year 2023 and 2024, the shares were de-listed and now form part of the authorized unissued share capital of the Company. As detailed in note 21, Subsequent events, the Company shares have been delisted and therefore, no further repurchases are expected under the program.

Taxation

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Income tax expense is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. The Company uses the portfolio approach for releasing income tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws and tax rates enacted by the reporting date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Interest, and penalties, incurred on the underpayment of income taxes is classified as interest expense, and administration expenses, respectively.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from the assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recognized for the potential tax effects of temporary differences, carryforwards, and any income tax uncertainties of an acquiree that exist at the acquisition date, or that arise as a result of the acquisition. Deferred tax is measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are provided when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the extent it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Management periodically evaluates its tax positions with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. For uncertainties in income tax positions if it is more likely than not that some tax benefit will be sustained based on the technical merits of the position, then the tax benefit recognized is the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. If it is not more likely than not that some tax benefit will be sustained, then zero tax benefit is recognized. There were no material uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2023 and 2024.

Deferred tax liabilities arising on investments in domestic subsidiaries are not recognized to the extent that the investment can be recovered on a tax-free basis; and on investments in foreign subsidiaries to the extent that the undistributed earnings will be invested indefinitely or will be remitted in a tax-free liquidation.

Stock-based compensation

The Company operates various stock-based compensation plans, under which the entity receives services from employees as consideration for equity instruments of the Company. Settlement has taken place out of a fresh issue of shares. The equity instruments that may be granted in terms of the plans include stock options, retention shares, performance shares and stock appreciation rights, all of which entitle the holder to obtain shares in the Company. The fair value, determined at grant date, of the equity instruments granted is recognized as an expense over the vesting period, taking expected forfeiture into account, with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital. At the end of each reporting period, the Company revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments that are expected to vest, using historical and current information, and recognizes the impact of any revisions in the Consolidated Statements of Income, with a corresponding adjustment to additional paid-in capital. Expected forfeitures relating to service conditions are estimated to be 5%.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are classified as sales and marketing expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. For the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, $4.2 million and $2.8 million respectively, were expensed.

Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures", requiring public entities to provide disclosures of significant segment expenses and other segment items in annual and interim consolidated financial statements. The amendments apply to all public entities that are required to report segment information in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 280. All public entities will be required to report segment information in accordance with the new guidance starting in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023. Management is yet to assess the impact of adoption of this ASU.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures", requiring entities to provide additional information in the rate reconciliation and additional disclosures about income taxes paid. Public business entities are required to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about federal, state and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if the items meet a quantitative threshold. All entities are required to disclose annually income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal (national), state and foreign taxes and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold. For public business entities, the guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. For other entities, it is effective for annual periods beginning a year later. All entities should apply the guidance prospectively but have the option to apply it retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. Management is yet to assess the impact of adoption of this ASU.

3. Acquisition

MiX Telematics North America, a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired Trimble Inc.'s Field Service Management business ("FSM") in North America on September 2, 2022.

FSM's North American operations include the sale and support of telemetry and video solutions that enable back-office monitoring and visualization for fleet services management in a number of industries.

All existing FSM subscription contracts and the related revenue streams were acquired by MiX Telematics North America.

The measurement of expected credit losses is a function of the probability of default, loss given default (i.e., the magnitude of the loss if there is default) and the exposure at default. The assessment of the probability given default and loss given default is based on historical data adjusted by relevant forward-looking information. The exposure at default is represented by the asset's gross carrying amount at the reporting date.

The Company considers a default to have occurred when a receivable is more than 90 days past due or information determined internally or obtained from external sources indicates that the customer is unlikely to pay its creditors, including the Company, in full. Amounts provided for are generally written off when there is no expectation of recovering the amount, in accordance with the Company's write-off policy.

Overview of the Company's exposure to credit risk from customers

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the gross carrying value of each receivable and loan to external parties. As of March 31, 2023 and 2024, the Company has no significant concentration of credit risk, due to its spread of customers across various operations and geographical locations.

The Company does not hold any collateral as security.

During fiscal year 2023, the Company terminated the suretyship securing its indebtedness to Standard Bank of South Africa Limited and a new agreement was entered into. Refer to note 17 to the consolidated financial statements.

Uganda 30 % 30 %
United Arab Emirates - % 9 %

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. As of March 31, 2023 and 2024, the Company believes that it is not more likely than not that deferred tax assets of $0.2million and $1.2 million, respectively, will be realized in respect of cumulative tax losses amounting to $0.7million and $5.7 million, respectively. Accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance on such deferred tax assets.

For the year ended March 31, 2023, the valuation allowance decreased by $0.3million as a result of reversals of previously raised valuation allowances on prior year tax losses. For the year ended March 31, 2024, the valuation allowance increased by $0.9million as a result of an increase in deferred taxation not recognized on calculated tax losses.

As at March 31, 2023 and 2024, the Company had tax loss carryforwards of $8.7million and $5.9million. respectively. The tax loss carryforwards can be carried forward indefinitely except for tax losses of $0.4million in Thailand which expire in 1 year from 2024 till 2025.

As of March 31, 2024, there were 12,790,000shares reserved for future issuance under the LTIP.

F-30

The total stock-based compensation expense (included in administration and other) recognized during the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, was $0.5million and $1.1million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the year ended March 31, 2024 includes a cash-settled stock-based payment expense of $0.8million for a bonus related to the Powerfleet Transaction (refer to note 21) to be settled in shares. Net deferred tax benefits reversed on total stock-based compensation expense in the Statement of Income for the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, was $0.1million and $0.05million, respectively. Tax benefits realized on awards exercised during the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, was $0.2million and $0.04million, respectively.

Stock appreciation rights granted under the LTIP

Under the LTIP, SARs may be issued to certain directors and key employees. The exercise price of the SARs granted is equal to the closing market value of ordinary shares on the day preceding the date of grant. The SARs granted vest in tranches of 25% per annum, commencing on the second anniversary of the grant date and expire 6years after the grant date. Vesting is contingent upon employment within the Company and an annual total shareholder return in excess of 10% being achieved, taking into account any dividends paid during the vesting period. Management estimates forfeiture to be approximately 5%. Upon exercise, the Company will settle the value of the difference, between the closing market value of the ordinary shares on the day of settlement and the award price (if positive), by delivering shares. The Company has no legal or constructive obligation to settle the SARs in cash.

The following table summarizes the Company's SARs for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024:

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of SARs granted during the years ended March 31, 2023 and 2024, was 14 U.S. cents and 10 U.S. cents, respectively. The grant-date fair value was determined using a combination of the Monte Carlo Simulation option pricing model and the Binomial Tree option pricing model. U.S. currency amounts are based on a ZAR:USD exchange rate of 18.8761as of March 31, 2024.

As a result of the transactions, including the Scheme, contemplated by the Agreement, the Company has become an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Powerfleet. The implementation of the Scheme has resulted in the delisting of the MiX Ordinary Shares from the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and the delisting of the Company's American Depositary Shares, each representing 25 MiX Ordinary Shares, from the New York Stock Exchange. The Powerfleet Common Stock will continue to be listed on The Nasdaq Global Market ("Nasdaq") and will additionally be listed on the JSE by way of a secondary inward listing.

On the implementation date of the Scheme (i.e. April 2, 2024) (the "Scheme Implementation Date"), the holders of record of MiX Ordinary Shares, who were registered in MiX's securities register as of the applicable Scheme Record Date (i.e. March 28, 2024) for purposes of the listing requirements of the JSE, exchanged 100% of the issued MiX Ordinary Shares as of the Scheme Record Date, excluding treasury shares and any MiX Ordinary Shares held by any shareholder of the Company that has validly exercised its appraisal rights with respect to the Scheme, in exchange for consideration consisting of 0.12762 shares of Powerfleet Common Stock for each MiX Ordinary Share (and in the case of holders of MiX ADSs, 3.19056 shares of Powerfleet Common Stock for each MiX ADS).
