'This year has demonstrated that there is a fast growing market for our traffic
information and vehicle security products, which is endorsed by the variety and
quality of businesses and organisations with which we are now working. Crucial
to our success has been the development of services based on European standards
and the endorsement of technologies such as Floating Vehicle Data (FVD), RDS-TMC
and NavTrak ADR by leading brands such as the AA.  With our business model in
place, we are focussed on continuing to offer our customers cost effective,
simple integrated solutions, and we view the coming year as having resultant
benefits for increased revenues to ITIS.'

                               Financial Overview



For the year ended 31st March 2003 turnover increased by 158% to £3.82m (2002:
£1.48m). As a result of the increase in revenues and reduction in costs, the
loss after taxation before exceptional costs for the year was reduced to £6.38m
(2002: loss before exceptional credit of £9.13m). The loss after taxation after
exceptional costs for the year was reduced to £7.43m (2002: loss after
exceptional credit of £8.49m).   The exceptional costs of £1.05m related to
licence costs written off and costs associated with the renegotiation of a
commission agreement (2002: credit of £0.64m related to the sale of a joint
venture net of the impairment of certain fixed assets).



At 31st March 2003, the company's cash balance remained strong at £11.2m (2002:
£17.1m).  With the company's current predictions of growing revenues and further
cost reductions, the Directors are confident that ITIS has sufficient cash to
develop the business through to profitability and positive cash flows.



                                Business Review



The market



The market continues to develop as Government, businesses and motorists all come
to realise the potential of real time, accurate traffic information and vehicle
security services.  As the UK transport network is increasingly under the
spotlight, so both road users and policy makers are demanding better information
on which to base travel and investment related decisions. ITIS is at the centre
of this growth market, and is recognised as a market leader in the provision of
real time and predictive traffic information.



ITIS now has both the raw data and technical capability to fulfil a broad range
of requests, from up-to-date information to service a simple request from a
motorist who needs to make a decision on which motorway to use, right up to the
complex data required by a Government department to measure the effectiveness of
congestion charging.



The AA



On the 11th October 2002 ITIS announced a new five year contract with Automobile
Association Developments Limited, part of the Automobile Association Limited
(AA), to exclusively operate AA Roadwatch branded telephone and telematics
services, and to exploit new opportunities for selling and marketing traffic
information. This contract and integration of the AA traffic information with
our own sources has gone to plan.



The data published by ITIS combines information gathered by the AA on all
incidents across the UK with our own live traffic speed data collected from
thousands of probe vehicles reporting to our Floating Vehicle Data (FVD) system.
The resulting information provides the end customer with an unparalleled level
of detail on all incidents affecting the road network. The IVR (Interactive
Voice Response) platform that supports the traffic information service is
eminently scaleable; for example during the M11 motorway closure in January,
ITIS handled over 87,000 calls during a 24 hour period.



ITIS's traffic information service is now available under the AA Roadwatch brand
on 401100 (all mobile phone networks), 2222 (Vodafone) and 2020 (T-Mobile).  Our
traffic information also enhances route information given over the AA's web
site.



The contract with the AA provides ITIS with a secure long-term revenue stream
and the results reflect a five month contribution from this contract.



Floating Vehicle Data ('FVD')



ITIS operates the world's largest commercial FVD system, providing full coverage
of the UK's Strategic Road Network.  During the last year we secured agreements
with a number of fleet operators, including the AA, on a fixed annual cost
basis.  The result of this has been a dramatic improvement in coverage at a
lower cost per mile than alternative technologies.



Whilst FVD provides real-time information to support our driver information
services, ITIS maintains a data warehouse of all speed and location records for
analysis of historical congestion and journey times.  The warehouse continues to
grow by over 3 million observations a day and currently stands at over 500
million records.  This information is being sold by ITIS to various Government
agencies and local authorities.  It is used for example, by the Scottish
Executive, to provide real time routing and to evaluate expected journey times
dependant upon time of day and the day of the week the customer wishes to make a
specific journey.



RDS-TMC



RDS-TMC remains the only international standard for providing traffic data to a
satellite navigation system.  Virtually all screen based satellite navigation
systems are TMC compliant, and vehicle manufacturers see this as a low cost
entry to providing driver information services.  Provision of a TMC service
requires close cooperation between the information provider, the digital mapping
companies, the navigation equipment suppliers and car manufacturers as well as a
nationwide broadcast capability.  ITIS provides the RDS-TMC service using the AS
/1 licence, which enables our traffic data to be transmitted nationally using
the Classic FM network.  In December 2002, ITIS successfully bid for an
extension to this licence from the Radio Authority and the licence is now valid
until the end of 2012.



In addition evaluations by several leading vehicle manufacturers are nearing
completion and during the course of this year we expect to increase greatly
penetration of RDS-TMC from a current base of close to 30,000 cars.



NavTrak



This has been an extremely successful period for our NavTrak business which has
set the standard for vehicle manufacturers and insurers alike.  The NavTrak
system is now an approved option in the UK on BMW, Bentley and Land Rover and
standard equipment on all  Ferrari.



NavTrak ADR detects theft with the owner's keys, delivers low current drain and
uniquely offers full service coverage across Europe, including police liaison in
over 20 countries, through our agreement with EUROWATCH.  This has enabled us to
extend a previously signed contract with a major vehicle rental company in
Italy.



During the year we connected 2,305 NavTrak units.  This figure does not yet
reflect the recent endorsements by prestige vehicle brands, which we would
expect to have a material impact on connections during the current year.



Current Trading and Prospects



During the year the ITIS management team have delivered on the strategy set out
in the Results Statement for the year ended 31st March 2002, which were to
control costs, minimise cash usage and grow revenues with the automotive
industry.   The Group's focus on the delivery of its unique propositions, such
as the provision of real time traffic flow information via FVD, and the
attractive NavTrak product offerings, have resulted in a more than doubling of
revenues and we expect further substantial revenue growth this year.



Our cash balances remain strong and with the company's current predictions of
growing revenues and further cost reductions, the Directors are confident that
ITIS has sufficient cash to develop the business through to profitability and
positive cash flows.

Notes


1. Basis of Preparation

The financial information set out in this preliminary announcement does not
constitute the Group's statutory accounts for the years ended 31 March 2002 or
2003, but is derived from those accounts. Statutory accounts for the year ended
31 March 2002 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies.

The auditors have reported on the accounts for the years ended 31 March 2003 and
2002: their report was unqualified and did not contain a statement under section
273(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 1985.

The financial information set out in this preliminary announcement has been
prepared on the basis of the accounting policies as stated in the accounts for
the year ended 31 March 2002.



The directors, having reconsidered the terms of the company's deferred shares in
the light of the requirements of FRS4, have reclassified those shares as non-
equity shares. There is no impact on the profit for the year or net assets in
either year.

A copy of the annual report and accounts will be circulated to all shareholders
of the company shortly and copies will also be available for members of the
public upon application to the registered office at Fifth Floor, Station House,
Stamford New Road, Altrincham, WA14 1EP and on the website www.itisholdings.com.
