Expired temp tags about to be a thing of the past in Missouri

Yahoo2 days ago
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Missouri drivers will see a multitude of changes within the next two years, including the discontinuance of temporary tags.
This comes after the passage of Senate Bill 28, which will take effect on Aug. 28, but the change in paying vehicle sales tax will be implemented once the second phase of the Department of Revenue's new FUSION (Fifty Unique Systems In One Nexus) system is operational.

Once the system is in place, vehicle buyers in Missouri will be required to pay sales tax at the point of the sale when they purchase through a dealership.
If the car is purchased privately, buyers will continue to take their bill of sale to any Missouri license office to pay sales tax. Once the purchase is complete in both scenarios, buyers will get a paper copy of their new license plate and a permanent metal plate with the same number configuration will be mailed to the buyer.
Buyers will no longer receiver have the option of getting a temporary tag.
'This change to the way we collect sales tax will eliminate temporary license tags which rob the state of millions of dollars each year because of drivers who never pay their sales tax,' said Missouri Director of Revenue Trish Vincent. 'Though the law goes into effect on August 28, the sales tax changes cannot take effect until our new FUSION system is up and running.'
The purpose of FUSION is to combine older mainframe systems and software applications that can no longer communicate with each other into one core system that will significantly increase speed and efficiency in performing motor vehicle and driver licensing functions.

The first phase was focused on driver licensing and implemented on Nov. 12, 2024. Until FUSION is fully operational, the current sales tax collection process will remain in effect for both dealerships and private vehicle purchases.
'This new law affects both the seller and the buyer,' Vincent said. 'We are going to work with dealers to get everyone trained on the new system and prepared to collect sales tax. Buyers will need to be ready to pay the full sales tax amount at the time of purchase.'

Yatra Online, Inc. Announces Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2025

GURUGRAM, India & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Yatra Online, Inc. (NASDAQ: YTRA) (the 'Company'), India's leading corporate travel services provider and one of India's leading online travel companies, today announced its unaudited financial and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2025. 'I am pleased to share that our first-quarter performance delivered strong financial and operational results, with growth rates in the quarter well ahead of our annual guidance, despite the disruption in travel in India on account of the cross-border tension and the unfortunate air crash in June 2025. Our performance is driven by continued momentum in business travel demand and solid execution across our platform. Revenue growth was driven by a higher corporate travel mix and higher share of hotels and packages which combined with disciplined cost management enabled us to deliver a 214.4% increase in Adjusted EBITDA. These results affirm the strength of our strategic positioning and our ability to scale profitably. As we look ahead, we remain focused on driving sustainable growth, enhancing shareholder value, and expanding our competitive edge in the global travel ecosystem. 'For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we reported revenue of INR 2,098.1 million (USD 24.5 million) registering growth of 99.7% YoY. Our RLSC for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, of INR 1,156.3 million (USD 13.5 million) was up 36.6% YoY reflecting the momentum we've built across our Corporate Travel and MICE businesses, which have been pivotal in navigating a competitive landscape. Notably, our profitability metrics underscore our disciplined execution: Profit for the Period grew 14,514.9% YoY, reflecting our ability to optimize costs and capitalize on high-growth opportunities. 'Our MICE business continues to build on the strong foundation that we laid last year and has emerged as a standout performer, and we have been able to establish Yatra in a very short period as a dominant player in India's MICE market. 'While our B2C air ticketing segment faced top-line and margin pressures due to disruption of travel due to the macro factors mentioned above, our diversified revenue mix—particularly the strength in Hotels & Packages and MICE—has effectively mitigated these challenges. 'Our Corporate Travel segment continues to be a cornerstone of our success. In the first quarter, we onboarded 34 new corporate clients, further expanding our annual billing potential by INR 2,010 million (USD 23.4 million) and reinforcing our position as India's leading corporate travel provider. The integration of Globe Travels, acquired in September 2024, has exceeded expectations, delivering synergies in supplier consolidation, technology adoption, and cross-selling opportunities. These efforts have enhanced our ability to offer seamless, tech-driven solutions to our growing client base. 'As part of our ongoing efforts around restructuring, the Company believes it has a viable structure to pursue. While some hurdles remain, we are actively navigating processes across jurisdictions. The timeline is uncertain due to complexity, but we're fully committed. This transition is key for Yatra and our shareholders, aligning us with the market and unlocking value. We'll share updates as we move forward. 'We remain focused on advancing our strategic priorities: scaling high-margin verticals, deepening our technology edge, and creating sustainable long-term value for our stakeholders. I would like to thank our team for their relentless dedication, our partners for their trust, and our shareholders for their continued support.' – Dhruv Shringi, Co-founder and CEO.

AND SUBSIDIARIES Reconciliation of GAAP Earnings Financial Measures to Corresponding Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited) We evaluate our results of operations on both an as reported and a constant currency basis. The constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of period-over-period fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We believe providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding our results of operations, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of our business performance and is consistent with how management evaluates the Company's performance. We calculate constant currency percentages by converting our current period local currency financial results using the prior-period exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our prior period reported results. Other companies that provide similar non-GAAP measures may calculate them differently than we do, and the definitions may not be the same as the definitions we use.
