Zoom2u Technologies Limited reported its financial results for the half-year ended 31 December 2024. The company's revenue grew by 10% to $3,192,607, compared to $2,889,565 in the prior corresponding period (pcp). This was primarily driven by a 10% increase in revenue from the Locate2u SaaS product, which reached $1,324,489, and an 11% increase in revenue from the Zoom2u business segment (including the Zoom2u courier platform and 2u Enterprises), which reached $1,868,118. The Zoom2u courier platform experienced a 3% decline in revenue to $1,531,575, which the company attributed to ongoing weakness in consumer confidence and lower margins being achieved for Enterprise customers versus the pcp. This decline was offset by a significant increase in revenue from the 2u Enterprises business (comprising Shred2u and marketing/driver services), which grew to $336,543 from $105,478 in the pcp.The company's EBITDA for the half-year improved to $45,027, compared to a loss of $385,342 in the pcp, representing a $430,369 improvement.
