Sales Backlog

Subsequent to February 28, 2022, the Company announced aggregate orders of approximately $1.9 million. The Company is also aware that its bid submission on an approximate $5 million contract with a major customer was successful. The Company expects this will additionally contribute to the sales backlog but cannot be assured since the Company has not yet entered a purchase contract with the customer.

Management Commentary

“Our FQ2 2022 revenue remained strong even though it was a quarter where some of our anticipated customer contracts were delayed while our school and transit customers were addressing operational challenges,” commented Doug Dyment, President and CEO. “During the quarter we also took action to address the supply chain challenges that have hampered the technology industry at large, and we are already witnessing the positive effects of these actions in our sales backlog. In this environment, customers want assurance that their suppliers can actually deliver on their technology proposals, and we are proud that we have taken steps to offer this advantage to our new and existing customers.”
