Insights

Freightos' Q2 2024 results demonstrate solid growth across key metrics. Revenue reached $5.7 million, up 11% year-over-year, while transactions grew 32% to 316,500. The 31% increase in Gross Booking Value to $203.4 million is particularly noteworthy, outpacing market growth significantly. Improved gross margins, both IFRS (64.9%) and non-IFRS (72.0%), indicate enhanced operational efficiency. However, the company still reports an IFRS operating loss of $4.6 million, albeit reduced from last year. The acquisition of Shipsta could accelerate growth but may initially impact profitability. With $47.4 million in cash, Freightos appears well-positioned to fund operations and strategic initiatives.

Freightos' performance indicates strong market penetration in the digital freight booking space. The 16% growth in unique buyer users to 19,100 suggests increasing platform adoption. The addition of major carriers like Singapore Airlines enhances the platform's appeal. The Shipsta acquisition strategically expands Freightos' capabilities into freight tender procurement, potentially opening new revenue streams. However, the adjusted 2024 guidance, citing caution due to European conditions and Red Sea disruptions, hints at potential market volatility. The projected 25-27% transaction growth for 2024 still outpaces the broader market, indicating continued market share gains in a challenging environment.

Freightos' digital platform is showing strong traction in the freight industry, evidenced by the consistent growth in transactions and user base. The integration of Shipsta's procurement capabilities could create a more comprehensive offering, potentially increasing user stickiness and transaction values. The company's focus on high-value initiatives and strategic expansion suggests ongoing platform enhancements. However, the tech sector often values profitability alongside growth. While Freightos is narrowing losses, achieving positive Adjusted EBITDA by end-2026 may seem distant to some investors. The company's ability to leverage its expanded capabilities to accelerate this timeline will be important for maintaining investor confidence in the tech-driven transformation of the freight industry.

  • New records for transactions, GBV, revenue and Adjusted EBITDA, all exceeding management expectations
  • Acquisition of Shipsta expands company's platform for importers/exporters while accelerating revenue growth and supporting reaching breakeven with cash on hand

BARCELONA, Spain, Aug. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Freightos Limited (NASDAQ: CRGO), a leading vendor-neutral digital booking and payment platform for the international freight industry, today reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, which report followed the announcement of the acquisition of Shipsta.

"Our robust second quarter performance underscores the growing strength and adoption of our platform in the international freight market. The acquisition of Shipsta, announced earlier today, marks a significant milestone in our journey to digitalize freight booking and procurement, by expanding our footprint in global freight tenders," said Zvi Schreiber, CEO of Freightos. "Building on our first quarter momentum, we've continued to focus on high-value initiatives and strategic expansion. As we move forward, we remain committed to driving innovation and capturing the vast opportunities in the air and ocean freight markets, positioning us for sustained growth and value creation in this hugely important industry."

"Our second quarter results highlight robust performance across all key metrics," said Ran Shalev, CFO of Freightos. "We're adjusting our 2024 guidance within our original range to reflect caution with respect to conditions in Europe and the disruption to shipping patterns in Asia due to the Red Sea crisis. The acquisition of Shipsta is expected to add a small loss, but due to strong execution and tight management of expenses, we are pleased to guide for a lower EBITDA loss than previously expected for the full year. This execution, combined with the strategic acquisition of Shipsta, reinforces our market position and keeps us on track to achieve positive Adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2026, as well as our long-term goals of growth, enhanced profitability, and cash generation."

This transaction expands Freightos' existing industry-leading spot pricing, quoting, and booking capabilities, by adding tender procurement, thereby advancing Freightos' vision of comprehensive freight digitization. This acquisition accelerates Freightos' growth and supports its financial goals of achieving positive Adjusted EBITDA by the end of 2026 with available funds. A separate press release provides more detail.
  • Transactions Growth: Freightos achieved a record 316.5 thousand Transactions in the Second quarter of 2024, up 32% year over year. This was the 18th consecutive quarter of record Transactions.

  • Gross Booking Value Growth: Gross Booking Value (GBV) was $203.4 million in the second quarter, up 31% compared to the second quarter of 2023, and significantly above management's expectations. This outperformance stems mostly from the sustained high freight rates that continue to be driven by the Red Sea crisis.
  • Unique Buyer Users: The number of Unique buyer users digitally booking freight services across the Freightos Platform grew by 16% compared to the second quarter of 2023, reaching 19.1 thousand. 
  • Revenue Growth: Revenue of $5.7 million reflected strong growth of air cargo digital bookings and revenue from SaaS Solutions. Total Platform revenue in the second quarter was $2.0 million, up 11% from the second quarter of 2023, and Solutions revenue was $3.6 million, up 11% year over year.
  • Carrier Growth: The number of carriers selling on the Platform, primarily on WebCargo, increased to 51 for the second quarter of 2024. Among the recent carrier additions is Singapore Airlines, the addition of which was announced in May.

These statements, which include the financial outlook of Freightos, are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this press release, and on the current expectations of Freightos, and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and will differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of Freightos. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including Freightos' ability to successfully integrate the Shipsta business without disruption to its business; the ongoing military conflict in the Middle East; Freightos' ability to effectively execute its previously announced operational efficiency and cost reduction plan without undue disruption to its business; competition and the ability of Freightos to build and maintain relationships with carriers, freight forwarders and importers/exporters and retain its management and key employees; changes in applicable laws or regulations; any downturn or volatility in economic conditions whether related to inflation, armed conflict or otherwise; changes in the competitive environment affecting Freightos or its users, including Freightos' ability to introduce new products or technologies; risks to Freightos' ability to protect its intellectual property and avoid infringement by others, or claims of infringement against Freightos; and those additional factors discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in Freightos' annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 21, 2024, and any other risk factors Freightos includes in any subsequent reports of foreign private issuer on Form 6-K furnished to the SEC.

Financial Information; Non-IFRS Financial Measures

While certain financial figures included in this press release have been computed in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, this press release does not contain sufficient information to constitute an interim financial report as defined in International Accounting Standards 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" nor a financial statement as defined by International Accounting Standards 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements".

This press release includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the IFRS including, but not limited to, Adjusted EBITDA. These non-IFRS measures differ from the most directly comparable measures determined under IFRS. For the historical non-IFRS results included herein, we have provided tables at the end of this press release providing a reconciliation of those results to our results achieved under the most directly comparable IFRS measures. For the forward-looking non-IFRS data included under "Financial outlook", we have not included such a reconciliation, because the reconciliation of forward-looking data cannot be prepared without unreasonable effort. Our results and forecasts expressed as non-IFRS measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to revenue, net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under IFRS. You should be aware that the presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.  Freightos believes that Adjusted EBITDA and other non-IFRS measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating Freightos' operating results because they provide supplemental measures of our core operating performance and offer consistency and comparability with both our own past financial performance and with corresponding financial information provided by peer companies. Certain monetary amounts, percentages and other figures included in this press release have been subject to rounding adjustments, and therefore may not sum due to rounding.

Glossary

We have provided below a glossary of certain terms used in this press release:

  • Carriers: Number of unique air and ocean carriers, mostly airlines, that have been sellers of transactions. For airlines, we count booking carriers, which include separate airlines within the same carrier group. We do not count dozens of other airlines that operate individual segments of air cargo transactions, as we do not have a direct booking relationship with them. Carriers include ocean less-than-container load (LCL) consolidators. In addition, we only count carriers when more than five bookings were placed with them over the course of a quarter.
  • Unique buyer users: Number of individual users placing bookings, typically counted based on unique email logins. The number of buyers, which counts unique customer businesses, does not reflect the fact that some buyers are large multinational organizations while others are small or midsize businesses. Therefore, we find it more useful to monitor the number of unique buyer users than the number of buyer businesses.
  • GBV: Total value of transactions on the Freightos platform, which is the monetary value of freight and related services contracted between buyers and sellers on the Freightos platform, plus related fees charged to buyers and sellers, and pass-through payments such as duties. GBV is converted to U.S. dollars at the time of each transaction on the Freightos platform. This metric may be similar to what others call gross merchandise value (GMV) or gross services volume (GSV). We believe that this metric reflects the scale of the Freightos platform and our opportunities to generate platform revenue.
  • Transactions: Number of bookings for freight services, and related services, placed by Buyers across the Freightos platform with third-party sellers and with Clearit.  Sellers of Transactions include Carriers (that is, airlines, ocean liners and LCL consolidators) and also other providers of freight services such as trucking companies, freight forwarders, general sales agents, and air master loaders. The number of transactions booked on the Freightos platform in any given time period is net of transactions that were canceled prior to the end of the period. Transactions booked on white label portals hosted by Freightos are included if there is a transactional fee associated with them.
  • Adjusted EBITDA: Loss before income taxes, finance income, finance expense, share-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration, operating expense settled by issuance of shares, share listing expense, change in fair value of warrants, transaction-related costs, non-recurring expenses associated with the business combination with Gesher I Acquisition Corp and reorganization expenses.
  • Platform revenue: Fees charged to buyers and sellers in relation to transactions executed on the Freightos platform. For bookings conducted by importers/exporters, our fees are typically structured as a percentage of booking value, depending on the mode and nature of the service. When freight forwarders book with carriers, the sellers often pay a pre-negotiated flat fee per transaction. When sellers transact with a buyer who is a new customer to the seller, we may charge a percentage of the booking value as a fee.
  • Solutions revenue: Primarily subscription-based SaaS and data. It is typically priced per user or per site, per time period, with larger customers such as multinational freight forwarders often negotiating flat, all- inclusive subscriptions. Revenue from our Solutions segment includes certain non-recurring revenue from services ancillary to our SaaS products, such as engineering, customization, configuration and go-live fees, and data services for digitizing offline data.
