"We had a solid quarter as revenue increased over 21% lead by our U.S. Technology Solutions business, and we have carried this business momentum into the first month of our fiscal third quarter," commented Victor Dellovo, Chief Executive Officer. "As a result of our second quarter, and current trends, we believe we could achieve full year growth compared to fiscal 2025. Our TS business continues to lead our progress, and a primary factor behind this market driver has been the growing complexity of the cloud and the unique and specific needs of each enterprise. At the same time, our services business continued to grow due to our best-in-class service and extremely high customer retention rate, which contributes to realizing higher gross margins within the service segment.

"We are generating positive trends with the AZT PROTECT offering and continue to execute an increasingly successful land and expand strategy to leverage the market opportunity for our unique cyber-security solutions. During the quarter we doubled the number of new initial site customers over the prior year period. At the beginning of the third quarter, we added a new customer who is deploying AZT at more than two dozen manufacturing sites around the U.S. We continue to work with our strategic partners and distributors on additional multi-site deployments across key markets, including steel, energy, manufacturing, water utilities, pharmaceutical, food, and telecommunications industries.

"Half-way through our fiscal year, we are where we expected to be and are on track to generate growth during the second half of the year. Our cloud and managed services business will remain the drivers of our growth, with AZT PROTECT positioned to make a growing contribution."
