About the Entity

TPL Trakker Limited (TPLTL) is a publicly listed company, majority owned by TPL Corp Limited with a shareholding of ~64%. The Company operates as a leading telematics and technology solutions provider. Its core business includes vehicle and container tracking, fleet management, data analytics, and digital mapping services, along with a range of integrated technology-based monitoring solutions. The Board of Directors comprises eight members and is led by the Chairman, Mr. Jameel Yusuf. The Company is managed by an experienced leadership team under the Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Nader Nawaz.

Rating Rationale

TPL Trakker Limited maintains an established presence in Pakistan’s vehicle tracking industry, supported by a broad product portfolio and a long operational history. Over the years, the Company has evolved from a conventional vehicle-tracking provider into a technology-driven solutions company offering Telematics, IoT, Mapping, Data Analytics, and multiple adjacent services. It has introduced solutions in fuel management, smart energy management, cold-chain monitoring, fleet management, AI-enabled video surveillance, and automated fuel terminals. While these initiatives demonstrate strategic intent to diversify and reposition the business, most of the new verticals are still at a nascent revenue-contribution stage, and vehicle tracking & monitoring remains the dominant income stream. The country’s tracking and telematics industry continues to expand as demand strengthens for logistics visibility, fuel efficiency, and asset security. However, operators face constraints arising from high operating costs, reliance on imported equipment, and fluctuations in the automobile segment. These factors make it difficult to forecast demand patterns and limit the pace at which industry participants can scale their operations. Within this context, the Company’s efforts to broaden its offering and enter new technology domains represent a long-term opportunity, but the benefits are expected to materialize gradually rather than offset immediate revenue pressures. During FY25, the Company completed the acquisition of full ownership of TPL Security Services to enhance portfolio breadth and expected to bring operational synergies in the future. Regionally, the Gargash Group has increased its shareholding in Trakker Middle East LLC to 70.3%, reflecting confidence in the long-term potential of the business; however, this has resulted in TPL Trakker’s reduced ownership, limiting consolidation benefits for the parent. Astra Location Services Private Limited (Astra), the wholly owned digital-mapping subsidiary, continues to expand its customer base through improved data infrastructure and strategic partnerships. Most of the planned capital expenditure has already been undertaken, and a number of initiatives are approaching commercialization; however, their meaningful financial contribution is yet to materialize. Accordingly, to closely monitor execution and performance outcomes, the ratings have been placed on Rating Watch, while the Outlook remains Developing. In FY25, revenue declined by ~30% year-on-year, primarily due to the completion of a major customer contract and the reclassification of Astra from subsidiary to associate, which reduced consolidated topline. Margins contracted across all levels, with the net profit margin turning negative at –3.9%. Liquidity remains under pressure due to elevated working capital needs, while coverage and cash flows are modest. The capital structure remains leveraged, comprising both short-term and long-term borrowings.

Key Rating Drivers

The ratings depend on the successful conversion of upcoming ventures into sustainable revenue streams, supported by positive performance indicators such as maintaining adequate cash flows, profits, and margins as outlined in the financial projections. Additionally, adherence to financial discipline remains critical for the ratings.

Business Risk
Industry Dynamics

During FY25, Pakistan’s economy showed signs of stabilization under ongoing reforms. Provisional estimates place real GDP growth at 2.7%, supported by recovery in the services sector and large-scale manufacturing, while agriculture recorded moderate growth. The automobile sector also reflected improvement, aided by macroeconomic stability, lower interest rates, and renewed consumer confidence. Passenger car and LCV sales rose by ~43% year-on-year, driven by easier financing conditions and new model launches. However, the industry continues to face challenges from high input costs, limited localization, and evolving import and energy policies. The tracking services industry in Pakistan is shaped by rising demand for fleet management, logistics efficiency, and security solutions, though infrastructure gaps and regulatory complexities remain constraints. Adoption of GPS-based tracking and telematics has grown steadily, with logistics companies seeking route optimization, fuel savings, and improved delivery times, while corporate clients emphasize asset security and operational transparency. Despite growth opportunities, the sector contends with high operating costs, reliance on imported equipment, and regulatory pressures. Looking ahead, expansion of e-commerce, smart-city initiatives, and IoT applications is expected to transform the industry, creating avenues for innovation and diversification. The industry is evolving rapidly, driven by IoT and telematics advancements, with companies expanding through strategic partnerships and technology enhancements. A significant portion of demand originates from the automobile sector, where vehicle tracking remains the most common application. While the auto industry faces economic challenges, tracking services are expected to shift focus toward fleet management and container tracking. Additionally, service delivery applications aimed at enhancing consumer convenience are gaining traction. With inflation easing and recent reductions in monetary policy rates, the outlook for the industry appears more favorable.


Relative Position

TPL Trakker Limited holds a unique position in the industry as the only Company in its segment listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), while there are numerous competitors in market including I‑Tech, Tracking World, and Falcon I remain privately owned. These players primarily focus on conventional telematics and IoT solutions. Operating in a competitive environment, TPL Trakker reports an estimated ~38% share of the tracking and fleet management market, underscoring its scale relative to peers. The Company has pursued a strategic shift toward diversified technology offerings, particularly in the Internet of Things (IoT) space, moving beyond reliance on traditional vehicle tracking services. This transition has broadened the product portfolio and strengthened the Company’s relevance in emerging technology domains, positioning it for growth in areas such as connected mobility, smart logistics, and integrated IoT solutions. While competition continues to intensify, TPL Trakker’s focus on innovation and expansion supports its ability to maintain market presence and operational resilience. Beyond tracking, the Company has entered a wider ecosystem of technology-driven solutions, including IoT applications, industrial automation, cybersecurity, smart-city infrastructure, logistics optimization, and smart agriculture. This diversification enhances its presence across multiple sectors, reduces concentration risk, and creates new channels for sustainable growth. By integrating advanced technologies, TPL Trakker aims to establish itself as a comprehensive solutions provider in both domestic and regional markets.


Revenues

TPL Trakker’s revenue is derived from multiple streams, including equipment installation sales, rental income from tracking devices, monitoring fees, navigation income, e‑ticketing income, and other services. In IQFY26, revenue declined by 36.8% to PKR 280mln, compared to PKR 1.7bn in FY25 and PKR 2.5bn in FY24. Approximately 53% of total revenue is generated from the rental of tracking devices, followed by monitoring income as the next largest contributor. Looking ahead, the revenue base is expected to expand with the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), the advancement of CPEC-related projects, and the development of transshipment initiatives. In addition, location‑based services represent a segment with potential to add further value to the business.


Margins

In IQFY26, the Company’s gross profit margin was 26%, compared to 41% in FY25 and 45% in FY24. The net profit margin declined to -27.2%, following a loss of -3.9% in FY25 and a profit margin of 5% in FY24. At the bottom line, the Company reported a net loss of about PKR 76mln in IQFY26, with a loss of PKR 70mln in FY25 and a profit of PKR 135mln in FY24. The Company’s profitability has shown fluctuations across reporting periods, primarily influenced by the nature and timing of contracts with customers.


Sustainability

Multiple yet diversified revenue streams ensure sustainable inflows for any business. During the year, the Company operated in a persistently challenging macroeconomic environment that continued to impact businesses across sectors. The conclusion of the Safe Transport Environment (STE) business in late 2024 marked a strategic shift in operations of the Company. In the current review period, several new contracts were secured, with revenues expected to be recognized in subsequent reporting periods. In FY25, the Company acquired a 100% stake in TPL Security Services, aimed at broadening the product portfolio, creating synergies through integrated technology and service offerings, and optimizing costs to improve efficiency and value. This acquisition is expected to contribute to additional revenue streams and enhance investment value. Additionally, 50.1% equity in Trakker Middle East LLC was acquired by the Gargash Group, representing a key milestone in the Company’s regional growth strategy. This partnership is expected to strengthen operational synergies, support expansion across the Middle Eastern market, and reinforce the presence of the Company’s IoT solutions in the region. Integrated products such as connected cars, developed in collaboration with automobile manufacturers, together with the upcoming CPEC project routing, are anticipated to support future revenues. Furthermore, the Company has revised its strategy for the TPL Maps division, now operating under Astra Location Services (Pvt) Ltd, with revenues from this initiative to be recognized in upcoming periods.


Financial Risk
Working capital

TPL's working capital requirements arise from credit allowances to corporates and financial institutions, financed through short-term borrowings. In IQFY26, the cash cycle was reduced to ~2 days, down from ~27 days in FY25 and ~69 days in FY24. According to industry norms, the ageing analysis shows that most debtors, primarily corporate clients, take at least four months to pay.


Coverages

During IQFY26, the Company generated free cash flows from operations (FCFO) of PKR 60mln, compared to PKR 523mln in FY25 and PKR 935mln in FY24. This reflects a decline in operating cash generation over the past three reporting periods. Coverage ratios stood at around 1.0x in IQFY26, following 1.7x in FY25 and 2.0x in FY24.The Company’s interest coverage ratio was reported at 0.9x in IQFY26, compared to 1.6x in FY25.


Capitalization

As of IQFY26, the Company’s equity base was PKR 2.3bn, compared to PKR 2.4bn in FY25 and PKR 2.5bn in FY24. The debt portfolio consists of both short-term and long-term borrowings. Total borrowings stood at PKR 1.54bn in IQFY26, in comparison to PKR 1.4bn in FY25 and PKR 1.5bn in FY24. The gearing ratio was ~39.8% in IQFY26, after remaining within the range of 38.3%–38.9% during the previous two years.
