Prior to the challenges that the national lockdowns have presented, the company\u2019s new vehicle subscriptions for January and February were 30% ahead of 2019. Quartix has published its 2020 H1 interim results, together with accompanying presentations on its website at quartix.com\/investors. The Quartix Board is pleased to confirm it generated \u00a33.2 million free cash flow, leaving the business on track for 2020.\u202f\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inevitably, March-April saw new subscriptions reduce, resulting in a 14% reduction in new subscriptions in H1. However, since April there has been month-on-month recovery, and far better prospects for the rest of the year.\u202fThe graph below shows the impact\u202fthat\u202fCovid-19\u202fhad\u202fon\u202fQuartix\u202fUK\u202fcustomer fleets\u202fspecifically,\u202fand the distances\u202fcollectively\u202ftravelled\u202fduring recent months.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\" https:\/\/www.quartix.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Quartix-UK-fleet-impact-covid-graph-march-to-aug.png\" alt=\"UK fleet activity covid 19\" width=\"800\" height=\"471\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the year\u2019s events, UK customer numbers are still 3% higher than 31 December 2019 and active vehicle subscriptions are 4% higher. In this time, the number of Quartix customers in France and the US have risen by 12% and 9% respectively, despite contractions in the volume of new subscriptions during the pandemic.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In newer territories, namely Italy, Spain, Poland and Germany, Quartix saw new subscriptions quadruple from 315 new subscriptions gained in H1 2019 to 1,229 in H1 2020. This leaves the business\u2019 total subscription base in these countries at over 2,500 units, and with an impressive 85% increase in customers in these markets.\u202f\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are very proud of these results,\u201d says Andy Walters, CEO of Quartix. \u201cQuartix has navigated the pandemic admirably and kept on track, which is a great testament to our teams and our customer relationships.
