Management Commentary

Doug Dyment, President and CEO, commented, "Our financial performance in the second fiscal quarter of 2023 was record-breaking in all aspects. We are witnessing significant growth in both the transit and school segments of our business. Our Platform as a Service (PAAS) business model is proving to be very successful in increasing our revenues on a per bus/train basis and is solidly contributing to our evolution as a data company. During the quarter we increased the installed base of mobile data collectors to more than 47,000 and we successfully completed a $4 million contract which was one of the largest in our history. During the quarter we launched AI Dash Cam with video analytics for improved safety which is receiving strong customer interest."
